@MegabiteOG What orange light filter do you use when photographing? I got a Tiffen 85B but it seems somewhat washed out from a lot of angles when taking pictures. Or, what would you recommend for color correcting? It seems to get washed out in a bit of a pink/purple hue, example below.

What phone are you using? You can always adjust the white balance so less filter is needed?

Nice picture. Just needs a little color correction and tweaking. I use Adobe Lightroom for post processing. It’s pretty intuitive to use after you get use to it. Really a great tool helping make good pics great.

If you get Lightroom, you need to shoot in RAW so you can tweak all parameters.

Here’s a little tweaking on my iPad’s picture editor. With a RAW file in Lightroom, you can really make things look right. Also, not sure how correct the color is. Was just guessing and keeping it to the colors you provided in the pic.

I knew it. I knew you were a tweaker.
Haha! Outstanding.

More tweaking for @TDehler. Don’t forget cropping as well. You can really change the framing to bring more focus on what you’re trying to capture.
