 It was a real challenge to get a decent exposure of this amazing subjects due to very difficult uneven yellowish light, distance and movement. I love this lens. I hope this does well.

Shot in RAW..converted to jpg in Capture. Selective color layer to reduce yellow, usual levels, saturation, usm, ninja. Resize, ninja , add border.
