IR Pasir Ris Park

Hi all, it was nice meeting you during the outing. I was struggling with my not-wide-enough lens and the different-from-everyone-else IR filter.

As for your pics, here're my observatios:

You have too much Cyan in the pics this making almost the whole scene having a bluish tint. Could be your CWB slightly off, can try resetting it again on a brighter day and try again. Pics are a bit too soft to show details, my preference is slightly more sharpness. Lack of contrast to give depth.

Thank you!

No problem, anytime.

I don't know much, just some basics but will be glad to share with you.

I guess that Redstar202 has to reset the CWB. After the help of Teerex the pic is still bluish.
