Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

were there any hue/saturation adjustments made? that might be a stupid question.

Thanks for the comments folks.

These were actually a reasonably difficult series of pics to take due to 2 main reasons...firstly the damn camel trains don’t stay still and secondly, neither does the sunset! Consequently I spent a furious few minutes driving like a crazy man along Cable Beach to reposition tripod and camera in advance of an approaching camel train hoping that the light and colour would hold long enough for the camels to move into position. Given the dark conditions (I always wait till the sun is well below the horizon for sunset shots, makes for a far warmer and richer picture) and difficulty of subject matter, I was pretty happy with the results.

Only PP for all shots was heavy levelling (due to poor lighting) and saturation boost to make them "pop".
