More things seen along the way up to Amber fort. Are elephant riders called jockies?
I've noticed that ever since I've reinstalled my PC that my color conversion settings haven't been quite right. The gamma and color saturation have been all off. Luckily, the color balance seems okay. I've tweaked things a bit today.
If you would be so kind, please leave your comments as to how this image looks with respect to gamma—is the image too bright or too dark?

Let's just settle on Super Jockies, and leave it at that.
As for the color saturation I would agree that it appears a wee bit weaker than in previous photos, but that may just be because of the pastels on the elephant. As gamma goes, I think you are set a bit bright, there is little to no black in the photo, and the shadows seem washed out. On a plus note, I love the surly expression on the Super Jocky's face.

Brightness wise, the image looks alright, but there's the slightest hint of a white cast (slightly low contrast) that might be more obvious were your gamma set to a brighter setting. It's hard to judge, but there is generally a tiny bit more perceptible saturation in your previous pictures.
An elephant keeper/rider is called a 'mahout' both in India and Thailand.
