The Sunset Valley (落霞沟) at the Dongchuan County (东川) of Yunnan Province (云南省) is a raised plateau in a valley with terraced plantations. The colours of the red earth and vegetation together with the crops form a picture perfect scene under good light. We were there on a slightly cloudy morning with soft lighting and therefore the colour tone was a little bit flat.
We went back there in the afternoon when the sky was much clearer and the colours really popped out under the afternoon sunlight. We spent a few hours in total shooting at this location for the morning and afternoon sessions.
