The phone can do funny things on photos. Both the above photographs are taken at the same time (a few seconds apart). I only adjusted the exposure slightly - but look at the difference in the hues that come.up in the sky. To the naked eye, the sky and clouds had an orangish color. But the phone had its own mind!

For me, I don't mind what is or are the colours of the sunset. It is peaceful to enjoy all view of the nature.

It's amazing how much you can change photos nowadays with the right software.

And this was with just a slider to change the exposure in the regular camera app.

@pitstop There used to be a saying that the camera didn't lie. That doesn't hold true anymore.

It has a purplish hue in that capture. I don't know how!

I noticed how different the sky looks if you adjust the phone settings.

Quite interesting! I wonder what caused this sudden change in hue due to just a change in exposure. A secret of the digital cameras that needs to be unearthed.

I guess it's the software.
