Whoever took those photographs has very poor technical photography skills and/or no image editing skills. I could have produced something far better. For one thing they are underexposed and the white balance is much too warm.

I could have produced a far better comment than yours.

Oh wait. I think I just did.

There's no way the "warm" color could be due to the golden hour sunrise/sunset... :p
