Did they actually use greyscale or similar to make it look worse than it already is?
That’s how shit looks after it burns. You ever seen a campfire? And cloud cover or smoke filters daylight which actually reveals a lot of natural color. Think about what your town looks like on an overcast day vs a clear one.
Also, a lot of ashes falling everywhere makes everything look grey.
The image below has enough hints of color that I think it's a color image, too. I guess there's so much smoke in the air that the sunlight is getting filtered and everything looks grey.
I guess a lot of it is due to the unclear sky, there still is a lot of smoke visible in the bottom picture. Direct sunlight makes the colours more vibrant, whereas grey sky will also reflect on the sea greyish. It's always possible they might also have helped a bit with a filter.
Here are clearer, more close-up pictures:

2Looks to me like green and blue have been desaturated.
Yeah my main issue was the color of the ocean and that sunlight streak looking weird like someone used a sepia filter on it.
We haven't exactly been wanting for post wildfire pictures the last half decade and this is the first I've seen look digitally altered to make it look significantly worse. It has that look, and I've seen a lot of shops in my time.
Who knows. Might've just gotten a great macabre picture though.
The top photo was taken (I suppose by a satellite?) with a polarized filter and the bottom photo looks like a drone shot without a polarized filter. The polarized filter will make the water appear more blue and 'see through' the non polarized photo shows the sunlight and smoke reflecting off the water.
I am quite unsure what any of this has to do with the fact you can look at both photos and see clearly that most of the buildings are burnt to the ground in the second photo. Does the lack of a polarized filter in the second photo indicate that those buildings really didn't burn to the ground?
Thanks for the info. And no, you're just looking way too into what I said lol.
It legitimately looks sepia filtered. On a near similar photo showing damage which has pretty vibrant colors everywhere including the ocean. The ash and or filter makes much of the colorization look exactly like someone put a snap filter on it to make it look worse than the already terrible event it is, as if it needed a more grim look to popularize the picture. If they did end up applying a filter, I doubt it needed it, and may even look worse without one.
Trying to spread this weird implied false flag shit out of nowhere is literal insanity, Rashnet lol.
I feel like that's just because of cloud/smoke cover that the ocean looks like that. I doubt the photo has been altered specifically to make it look worse.
Water color is a good point. I'd guess maybe the time of day may be different between the pics which may affect overall colorization
There's also a lot of ash and the water and coast guard boats kicking up dirt and sand.
Interesting. Now why shouldn't I just call you a conspiracy theorist and scroll on? Is there any actual weight to your claims or do you just not like the vibe of disaster?
This sort of posting is infuriating because "just asking questions" stuff like this gets picked up by idiots rather easily, and they don't actually ask any questions. Next thing you know this escalates into "Jewish space lasers" like that one really bad fire in Paradise Ca in 2018
Sounds more like you're the one spreading it to me, FlickOfTheBean lol.
Edit: Judging by that post history I can see why. You're on the cusp of it and need to lay off the internet a bit. It's a slow fall into that decline.
Ah you're a jaq off. Have a nice day!
