Colors are tough. We are all staring at different monitors with different eyes. It helps to use images like you have above and compare to your screenshots. However, all cameras will "color" the images differently. Time of day and atmosphere will dramatically impact the satellite images as well. 

Check out the image you posted above. I don't think it's what I perceive as "accurate". Too yellow in the midtones, blown highlights in the bunker, too much lost in the shadows of the trees, tee box and brush in front over saturated...blah, blah, blah

Playing with images in Photoshop or Lightroom with white balance, levels, exposure, hue/tone, saturation, curves, etc...can help bring the overlay back to "reality".

 

Once you have good reference images, drop them next to your screenshots...

 

Adjusting your image from above to "my reality"...

Better 1, better 2, better 3?

I'd be happy to adjust your overlay and give you a few options back. It's less than 10 minutes work in Lightroom to give you a Muted, Natural and Saturated option.

 

NB - the middle image above was tweaked in Photoshop because I was lazy. It can be done better in Lightroom. I still see a slight yellow film over the image. Specifically, could make the bunkers cheat a bit whiter.

​For what it is worth I find that image 2 color looks the most realistic.

I believe image 1 looks a little bright and "washed out." Image 2 looks good to me.

This course is outstanding! I would suggest one change: The elevation of Verona NY is 446'. Verona is near the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains.
