Weak support It's a little dark for my liking, but the more I look at it, the more I find something interesting with it. --SHB2000 (talk) 05:22, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- @SHB2000 The author recently tweaked the image to make it brighter. TheBigBookOfNaturalScience (talk) 07:04, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for the comment SHB2000. Bear in mind that the sun has already set in this image and therefore the only relevant lighting is that which is reflected off the cloud; so the ground and sky should both be very dark here. Blue hour is a very difficult time of day for landscape photography. That being said, I know a lot more about postprocessing now than I did when I first uploaded this image, so I've just done a quick touchup using GIMP and reuploaded. The new edit should more fully utilise the colour space, and the perceived contrast should also be more favourable now. Cheers -- Thennicke (talk) 07:07, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
