Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay . . . in colour
When I shot this the sun was behind the cloud and I could barely see the rays. I underexposed almost 3 stops to darken, which also brought out the orange in the sky. In Lightroom I increased the saturation of the orange and reduced the orange luminance to make it richer. Then increased contrast and highlight.
Since I shoot Raw, I also did the scene in B&W and I like both version.
Best light - Under expose by at least 2 stops. Brings out the colours and richness
