Thanks again, for your input. I see that you can process the image in RT with a series of filters and tools to come up with a similar result. My version basically was done in gimp with just tone curve (lift up shallows) and hue-saturation (change sky color). IMO, the color tone curve can achieve...

First, really appreciate your many inputs of information for possible solutions to my needs. I was aware of changing the color profile in z6ii and did experiment with one "vivid" for landscape scenes. It turned out the vivid color shade is too "heavy" for my liking. However, IMO, the standard...

Wow! Use 600mm focal length to catch the great close-up image.

Other than hue-saturation there is hue-chroma for changing color scenes. Both are similar, but hue-saturation is more advanced, IMO. I think taking the time I can tweak the tool for more desired color scenes though. Another issue with this kind of process is using any kind of selection tool...

I have found several methods to change sky color or replace sky scenes in gimp. I did one that uses "selection by color" and "Hue-saturation" to get this: (the color blue is still not my desire though) (will reply to Chris' input when free)

Unfortunately, right now I don't have LR and don't expect to have it soon. :( But thanks for the tip.

Great shot! Did you set auto iso to shoot this image? using M, A, or S mode?

What's the simplest way (if possible) to change the sky color (guess the white point?) from pale white to light blue with the same tool or others in gimp you would suggest? Appreciate.

I was out in the yard trying to test z6ii + sigma + gimbal tripod again. It's still cast in no good light. Saw some small birds and made some shots. It turned out all subjects, bird, and tree, are backlit and become like silhouettes. Somehow before riding all the images when viewing them in...

What kind of system are you planning to use this for? Its leg (tube) thickness is type 2 (regular 2x.x mm). It may not suit a 150-600mm lens system.

Now we know we have at least two more z owners here. :)

Congratulations to Walt!!!

Though it was cast, cloudy, and raining, I took no more wait and went out for some nightscape (low-light) tests again. Due to the bad weather, no best night scene could be found only settled with no stars. IMO, the lens handled the low-light, low-clarity scene pretty well. Was impressed with its...

Is there some kind of optical or visionary illusion in this image?
