Description
Driving home from a grocery shopping trip in the late afternoon last week, the sun was a brilliant orange ball & gave the entire sky a strange cast. I shot several photos from the moving car (no safety worries, my wife was driving!), but in all of them the sun came out white rather than orange. Since sticking to reality was out of the question anyway, I played around with the colors some more & went for an even more extreme & saturated effect. The title, by the way, comes from a song by one of my favorite groups from the 60's - Love - on an album called Da Capo...

It makes even the posts and wires look great, Super shot.
Nice!
startling beauty and even the high wires add to it in a big way.
Wow. I am so glad to have your masterpiece here. I thank you for your masterpiece. 5+!
Beautiful orange sky. Nice shot
Love it! The power lines and sun are perfect.
Very nice overall! The sun overpowers the sensor, so next time adjust the +/- control to about -3 or -4 to underexpose the shot and you should get truer colors.
A very cool effect and i love the color here of it.
Wonderful atmospheric image!
Great effect!
Very interesting postwork effect.
You do the most amazing things and get such great results! If I'd done this, I would have said, "nope ... too much." But I look at yours and I love it! This is a lesson for me in being more bold. I'm working on it. This is gorgeous!
Excellent colors from you minor postwork. Love the results!
