The answer to this question is California. I drove from Los Angeles to San Francisco when I took this photo. I really did not know that there was such beautiful landscape within between! It really felt like Namibia at one point when looking out of the window. The funny thing is that I was never in Namibia, maybe that was a hint to get there…
I was recently asked how to achieve such an aqua sky in this photograph. FYI, the photo has already been posted over at my Facebook page a while ago.
This is very simple to achieve because I only use two sliders to change the color from Blue to Aqua. In Lightroom, I go to HSL and drag the Blue over to the left, basically to the Aqua. Now I will play with Luminance (Blue) until I have the color I like. Simple, isn’t it?
