Please look at THIS PHOTO and tell me if you think the lighting is natural or created.
Pay no mind to the obituary as it is irrelevant to the question at hand.
If this has been created by doctoring in a "photoshop" program, I would sure like to have the recipe.
Thanks for reading/looking.

Looks like the colours have been saturated a tad or two, but maybe the grass is really greener on the other side.

Please look at THIS PHOTO and tell me if you think the lighting is natural or created. BuckSkin I'd say a bit of both. The grass is backlighted and if tallish (vs mown) some of the bright green-yellow would be natural. The yellow saturation could have been enhanced to yield the bright grass color. This is a field of backlighted barley with awns. 
EDIT: This also barley that is sort of backlighted. I increased the yellow saturation.  |

Here's a thought, BuckSkin. If you would like to see what members might do with a similar image you could share one in Member to member advice and explain what you would like to see done to it....or find a stock image that you think could use editing to achieve the kind of look you want. Your call. |

Hi Buckskin I am not sure how this image was edited but here are some interesting things about the original. The photographer is Tim Hill. Here is the original that is available as wallpaper. As you can see it is available in various aspect ratios and I assume when someone downloads it they do some editing. BTW, TinEye {reverse image software) found 697 hits (use) of this image.

Thanks for the investigation and the information.
I just figured the funeral director stopped the procession along the way, got out and stood in the hearse door and snapped the picture. |

What are "awns" ? Thanks. Awns are the long thin spikes on the head.  |

One should try and learn something everyday and I have learned what awns are; I will always remember.
Thanks. |

Thanks for reading/looking. Buckskin, I believe it is an original raw photo capture that has been processed by ACR/Lightroom and/or photoshop. Pete B has kindly sent a link to the full photo. The photographer has his unique style of processing, As Clive has mentioned, the colour hues have probably been tweaked. Also, its possible if the sky has been darkened, maybe by reducing the blue luminance. But then again it appears to be a golden hour photo, and the timing may make all the difference. The starburst is produced by using a small aperture; maybe F 11 or F16. If you contact the photographer privately. he may be able to tell you how he did it. Kind regards Chris |

Thanks for sharing, Chris. I liked the way he showed how he adjusted the image to establish his main focal area.
