Nice image.Fine details.Eyes are glittering.Hope you have photographed in standing position also.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild
Saktida,
I do have standing shots of male and female.
I was in the midst of a pride feasting ... witnessed squabbling among themselves; shooing away the crows venturing for a bite; roaring................all within the closest distance of 5feet to farther of 30 feet. Of course the trackers were close by. And two more gypsies.
This image was shot the next day. I guess she is one of the females in the pride I saw a day earlier.
Regards

Lovely eye contact. Seems she was quite close. Was there one more lion on the right? Agree about the colour temperature. Good details. Thanks for sharing.
Murugan and Mrudul.
This was shot in Auto WB and Neutral Picture Style with +1 exposure compensation. I corrected the WB to Shade and PS to Portrait. As the image was overexposed gave -1 in brightness adjustment in DPP of Canon in RAW. Converted and saved in Jpeg. Re-sized in Adobe Photoshop Elements.
Can you guide me in how I can reduce color temperature?
Regards
Anand

They were about 10-15 feet away at eye level on a mound.

While you agree that the color temperature needs to be reduced, would you please look into this considering that I have detailed my post production process.
"Can you guide me in how I can reduce color temperature?" ------ posted by me in reply to similar observations. Let me also learn :001_smile:

In fact, I can share my full version of the PS CS5 with you if you want it that way, so that you need not purchase it :) Also, since we live in the same town and close by, it may be nice to sit together for some time and work on post processing images rather than communicating on the form that makes understanding things slightly more complicated.
Cheers

Thank you. I appreciate your offer to help and get in touch with you.

So win-win for all.

Anandji, the color temperature option is available as a slider in many photo editing software. I am not a pro and am just in the process of learning. I use a pretty basic editor- Picasa and sometimes photoshop, though i feel photoshop is still a bit too technical for me. Atleast in picasa there is an option to increase/decrease the color temperature with the help of a slider in the tuning tab. Not too sure how its done in your tool. But I guess you have got helping hands as soon as you asked for it :)
Dear Patraji and friends,
Thank you all for your guidance. Here is the first revision.
WB changed from Shade to Daylight
PS retained at Portrait
The slider in Canon DPP moved -2.

Looking forward to your feedback.
Thank you all.
Anand
Nice Anandji so you cracked it yourself, neat. I personally feel Revision 1 looks better. Waiting for others to comment. Thanks.
I agree that the revised image 1 looks better, though the brightness can be pulled down still by a little.
Sabyasachi,
Thanks for bringing up a valid point. I agree with you about discussing the processing algorithm on the forum.
I have not been able to get hold of Lightromm 4; I still use PS CS5 and Lightroom 3.4...In PS CS5, if you are opening a RAW image (one needs to have the adobe camera RAW downloaded; its free), the color tempeature can be tweaked either similar to in-camera settings (sunny, auto, cloudy etc..) or can be set to a specific temperature that suits the image. Along with this, there is a tint slider that can help in reducing any tint.
Regards
