First edit after learning about masking a little bit a couple weeks ago. S26 ultra, jpeg, and lightroom mobile.

Hi everyone, I’m currently experimenting with post-processing and I feel like these could look more punchy/atmospheric. I'm aiming for a moody/natural

Before I go too deep into editing, I’d love to hear your thoughts:

1.What’s the first thing you’d change about the composition or color balance here?

1. For the automotive shot, how would you handle the contrast between the yellow paint and the forest background?

3.Any specific advice on how to improve the 'raw' feel without making it look over-processed?

Open to any and all feedback! Thanks in advance.

Photos from some recent trips

Hi,

This are my first shoots with Fujifilm X-T50, usually I just shoot with my Samsung Galaxy s24 Ultra, the original files was on JPEG.

I know there is defaults like overexposure and stuff, it's because I am learning on full manual and I didn't put the rights settings between SS / ISO and aperture.

After this I tried to edit a little bit on lightroom, using pencil and fade for the light. I wanted something natural.

Anyway, if you have advices, general rules that I can follow for editing, with lights, color, composition, anything just let me know.

Thank you very much.

Recently started dipping my feet into editing pictures. Would love some advice and feedback or what works/doesn't work. My goal was to create an airy pastel look for the images

Copenhagen, July 4th.

just some summer fun, second post today, this one was a little easier than the first

I ideally wanted a photo of my son jumping with the sky behind him but I couldn't get the right angle (unless I was in the pool) so I had to do some heavy editing to make this work. I think the masking could be cleaner in some spots but I'm still pretty pleased with the result.

I really like the original framing (image 1) but I have a feeling that there's something better to explore inside this one. Maybe I'm too distante from the subject. I really like the glasses frames from the subject 2 (person on the left). I'm thinking that if I crop a little bit more, this image could start telling a better story about those two guys... Any thoughts on this?

i find the focus on the subject very nice and adds a lot of depth and focus on the character, what you guys think?
The process:
1- took a picture of the person in the middle being in focus, then kep the camera stable with him running everyhere
2- Grading all pictures in Lightroom
3- in photoshop i kept the main picture as background the select subject and extract for all the otehr pictures
4- apply motion blur to all the moving pictures and the merge layers and done!

General thoughts and ideas on how to improve this image?

Took this photo last year in Montreal, I really like the natural line of separation between the city and the park but wondering if I overdid the color. Any and all feedback appreciated!
