Thanks, lesjacksons and Chrism8.
Chris- I agree with your observations but in this case there were some constraints- images were shot through a small grilled window with little scope to position the camera in right angle, it was monsoon morning with fast changing light through the cloudy sky and I did not have option of changing lenses, hence captured whatever i could without missing it altogether. Sometimes we are caught in such situations

Thanks friends, appreciate your nice views and comments.
Jonathan - I highly appreciate your very frank feedback on my first set and now on this one. You might have read my opinion on "Reasons for few entries". I strongly believe that the Forum is a place to display, discuss and learn and not just an exhibition gallery. I, therefore, value your inputs and request you to always offer your frank feedback on my exhibits.
Coming back to your observations-
I was on a conducted tour and the shooting time was late noon-around 1 to 2 pm. This is reflected in the angle of deep shadows. I found it difficult to open up these shadows in pp. The earlier set was processed in LAB colour mode which has resulted in strong saturated colours. The present set has been processed in RGB colour mode resulting in less saturated colours, though, the shaded areas still look more saturated. About dirty sensor, yes i agree, it has left several spots, clearly visible in highlight areas. I had cleaned a few but some remained, culprit my weak eyesight- now 80 yrs old Regarding blue flare, I think, the descending mist on the mountains gives that look.Though the sunshine on the foreground was quite bright, the distant background was still not clear and covered with the mist.
I thank you, Jonathan, once again and highly appreciate your frank feedback.
Best regards

A big goof up on my part . I had shot these images in 2006 in RAW and later converted them into JPEG. In my unorganised file storage, I forgot raw images and continued with jpeg all through. Thanks to Mike, he wished to see' out of camera photos' and in that exercise I happened to find the raw treasure Though its a repeat, request you to have a look and offer your frank views, specially requesting Jonathan to consider technical aspects and opine, Thanks and Regards.

Yes Jonathan, you are right. Recovery of blown out sky and shadow details not possible.
