I didn't add much saturation, shot with camera landscape color profile so greens are greener etc. What i did do was a tonal contrast pass on the images. Plus, the light blows out there. Theres only so many spots i could shoot from without a media pass.

Time to make some connections so i can get one next time.

WHY

Just shoot raw?

Dude, you have a great monitor and calibration device. Why would you let that stupid camera decide anything for you?

Number 4 looks like you have extracted way too much shadow. Give that tonal contrast pass the boot. It looks like a semi faux HDR filter. Looks bad, man.

I've shot golf tourneys in bright light and I've never had such an issue with saturation.

eek- never let the camera do this sort of stuff for you. You'll end up with much better results yourself. If the 'greens are greener,' it's because the camera saturated the image

Lazy people likes one click options :lol:

I was trying to avoid the word "saturate" lol.

Yeah, shooting raw and changing the color profile in LR.

Heres a much more natural looking version just for you!
