Much improved sky tones. Gone is that burnt out turquoise. Trees look unnaturally dark green, but never having visited Bermuda I cannot comment on the accuracy or otherwise. I remember having a picture on my wall, as a kid, of a schooner on an unnaturally blue sea. Until I visited the Mediterranean, and found it was not unnatural at all.

Ask yourself, "What's most important for the final image?".

Here is the image with the white roofs colour corrected for a neutral white as against the blue tinge of the original. Nothing else was done to it. I feel that that simple correction has changed the greenery for the better. Sky has probably lost something, and if it was my image I would do some work to correct that.

Wes I still see a Blue dominance, not as bad, missing something. This was not a big edit, you are not to far away.

No success yet with Photoshop, assume you have tried reinstalling it. Cheers. Ed.

In my view, this image is too strong in cyans and greens, and the foreground elements need brightening. This example was done mainly using the brightness, contrast, and saturation controls, with lots of small, incremental, selective adjustments. The cyan saturation was reduced in a graduated way from bottom to top, leaving the top of the sky as in the posted image. Green was reduced and yellow increased in the vegetation, the foreground was lightened, and there was a slight increase in red tones of the walls and the clouds.

   

Cheers.

Wes. You say you did not edit image. At all? Is the camera set for Vivid Colour Saturation in its settings menu?

Good thinking John.
Wes, this tends to implicate a Plugin. Ed.

Wes. Set your file format to RAW + JPEG. See how those images compare (or differ). Set Picture Control System to Standard (I downloaded the manual). Do you shoot in Auto? If so set to Landscape (not Vivid or Pop). Menus are similar but different to my D80.
I process my raw images in Lightroom 6.4. I never go near Photoshop except for cloning or the like (sometimes to accurately square up an image). Lightroom produces wonderful images. Here is one done entirely in Lightroom, from the raw file to a finished TIFF. No other software used. Converted to JPEG and resized for Shuttertalk in ACDSee 19.

   
Nikon D80, Auto mode - Standard, 1/320 sec, f9, ISO 100, 27mm lens equivalent.

Does that mean you no longer have Lightroom either? I bought a standalone disc for Lightroom. Less than £100.
For a totally free Photoshop clone, download GIMP 2.8.
