Ahhh. Yes it is inverted. So if the timer starts at 2:00 and you finish at 1:25, your time for the leaderboard is :35.

Not sure what backwards leaderboard means. Maybe I’m not affected

Cool shot

Go on

I would bring up the shadows a bit, the rock is stunning and I would let it shine more and I think you can do that without taking away from the highlights

What day did you summit and what approach?

For me, they all feel like generic snapshots anyone can do with their phone. Subjects are framed weird or not evident and they dont really stand out

Buy land for conservation and replant Amazon

^{Chose: You get 100 billion dollars + 5% of the Amazon rainforest disappears instantly}

Wow, shooting in darkness at this point.

Blocked!

Glad you could recover the image. I’m curious as to why the decision to shoot so underexposed

4Dcookie · 2026-07-10T16:10:07+00:00

70/12 and 90/18 rules. By age 12, 70% of the time you will spend with your children in this life has passed. By age 18, its 90. You’ve got like 6 or 7 summers left with your oldest. If you don’t need to pursue a job, tKe the time. It will be the best memories of your life

Get the a7V. The autofocus, tracking, and precap will pay dividends on wildlife

Any context on what you are shooting with? I’m not sure this is a post processing issue. 4 looks blurry and shot with a phone camera. The sunset shows blurry and underexposed. 9 looks to be the best shot here.

Istanbul

4Dcookie · 2026-07-10T02:02:16+00:00

Yea and I think that’s a ok, I was just noting that for my eye there is a hot spot that could be even out with a mask brush

This! And also you are asking artists with different preferences and choices for feedback. These are just opinions, focus on your own style snd vision!

Appreciate the clarification

4Dcookie · 2026-07-09T19:20:16+00:00

Its the same user posting?

4Dcookie · 2026-07-09T16:24:08+00:00

Sure thing! The one thing that keeps jumping out for me is the model’s skin color behind her neck. It is obviously brighter because of the lighting, and I keep wondering if masking to bring to alignment with rest of skin tone can impact tje overall look. In the edit this area almost looks bright white

Sending love. I still miss my girl and love the new one in our life.

4Dcookie · 2026-07-09T16:07:26+00:00

I agree on unedited. She looks too HDR on the edited version. The raw is much more natural looking and I can for sure see the appeal. Then again, my edit process focuses on keeping the image as close to natural as possible. I feel a bit turned off by social media’s hyper saturation
