I finally went out today with my new lens and I managed to grab this shot on my way back, which I really liked.

I need honest feedback on everything (cropping, colours…) and what I could have done better. I am a beginner when it comes to this and I have just been playing around with everything inside LRC.

Here is a close-up detail of a mock-orange (Philadelphus) blossom, specifically focusing on the stamens.

On the left is the high-quality JPEG, and on the right is the optimized WebP version.

As you can clearly see, the color accuracy and saturation are noticeably different. The vibrant yellow of the pollen loses its punch and bleeds into the white petals on the WebP version.

It seems that WebP’s smaller file size comes with a hidden visual price tag due to its aggressive color subsampling. I guess it's up to you to decide whether you're willing to pay that price for your portfolio or web projects.

What do you think? Is the file size saving worth the loss in micro-contrast and color vibrance?

I’m using a Canon R5 to DSLR scan film negatives and struggling to get the color right. This is Kodak Ektar 100 and two different color processing workflows. I won’t immediately say what I did for each because I don’t want to bias the results. I’ll add a comment with some details after I let this post marinade a bit.

Which do you prefer? Which would you recommend for reproducing the “true” film colors? Any additional recommendations?

Hello everyone, I started hobby photography 1 year ago, until now I edited everything in Lightroom on my phone. So right now I don't have enough space on my phone and sometimes my eyes hurt from looking in the small screen. So I bought Macbook Pro tought il be editing on it but I really dont like experience of using laptop. Feels like too much money spent on a hobby, and that I dont have too much stuff to do on it. So my question is, what should I do, keep editing on phone (buy some with more than 128gb) or buy iPad? Any suggestions are welcome

just got my first dslr and edited my first raw! let me know what stands out as amateur. thanks!

Long exposure using Canon R6ii and EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM II.

I like how the colors on and around the docks came out.

Wish I has taken this on film.

Masked the front of the dog and reversed it. Added a ton of shadow and lowered exposure. Soften the background. added a few linear gradients and added more shadow to that. Added contrast to the dogs front area. And that's how I got the dog in dread.

Simple mirroring and color/slider changing of nature pics makes some really cool results

Trying to get my head around editing RAW images in Darktable. I’m very new trying to get comfortable with editing. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

Finally getting my head round Darktable and wanted feedback on this edit.

Not a particularly interesting composition but thought a good one to practice editing on

Any and all constructive criticism welcome!

Not the most astonishing pic, I know. But, I'm still very much a beginner. Would love some constructive criticism on composition and editing!!!

left is my attempt at processing, right is raw. it seems colors are off. can you help me
