There is also a Visual mod that restores the colours, however this current only supports up to No Man's Sky version 3.75 (Expeditions Revisited) and does not yet work on the latest update.

Until this is updated, you can install version 3.75 (manifest ID 5184063076020885755) following the How to Install Old Versions from Steam guide, and using this command with DepotDownloader (changing UN and PW to your username and password):

DepotDownloader -app 275850 -depot 275851 -manifest 5184063076020885755 -dir "no_mans_sky_v3.75" -username UN -password PW

This will bring back some colors from Foundations version on lush planets, activate all legacy sky colors, increase fog on planets and enable vintage filter. Also it activates legacy trees on all non-prime lush planets.
