Color Grading (Please feel free to comment)
I am practicing some color grading. This is one of the hardest things to master. I hope I have done it well.

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Which is original and which is colorgraded?
My wife said something similar: "Honey, I think the before is better". The after is the blueish background. Hahahaha...
Would say it's more turquoise than blue :) Well I love to play with colors on the photo, but it's a hard thing to master (i'm nowhere mastering it anyways). To me original is better too :( but try more, with some more practice you will get results better than original I'm sure! :) Cheers and good luck :)
Yeah, practice is key when it comes to color toning. Developing a color tone that is consistent in our photography is like the holy grail that most of us want to pursue. You are right, turquoise is the color I should have said. By the way, I like the natural tones in your photos.
As part of my practice, I have updated my AFTER picture. I`ve done it based on the feedback given by my fellow photographers.
Her skin tone is a little too grey
I agree with you. Thanks.
