A water fort in Jaipur, India. It was incredibly hazy so it was difficult to even see the fort. I noticed there were a lot of birds around, so I just picked a spot and kept shooting, trying to incorporate the birds and make for a more interesting photo. Just when I was about to give up, I flock of birds flew right in front of me and I was able to capture this shot (Fuji X-T5 w/ 16-80 f/4). I compressed the tone curve to basically a quarter of the range to try and pull out some contrast since you could barely see the fort otherwise. Was pleasantly surprised with the flexibility of the RAW file along with LR's AI noise reduction.
