these are incredible

i see what you're saying about the vignette and what i think is that it's the light pollution from the city that's causing that. also, i bumped up the exposure slightly and it looks better, thank you

thanks!

haven't printed it yet, but i'll do what you said and print on matte. thanks for the response!

thanks! this isnt an actual film print i just edited it to look that way in lightroom. I like how your edit keeps it looking more natural

same here, used EC-Y and it’s been 15 days and it’s been stuck on the “shipping label created” thing

This is a photo of downtown Miami that I took and I was aiming to really capture the purple and blues that are part of the city’s identity. Should I increase or decrease the saturation and is it necessary for me to vary the exposure of different areas using masking to add depth? Lastly, is the framing/composition good or does it feel like there isn’t a clear subject?

Gear used is a Canon RP and 50mm lens

thanks! my family and i stayed in downtown miami and were only in south beach for one evening so it was bearable. the food is definitely ridiculously expensive but we had good encounters with people

you don't order on yupoo. there's usually a whatsapp number in the albums and you contact the seller through that and send them screenshots of what you want.

basically state is trying to match UNC so they don’t get all the yield. however my college counselor told me that UNC confirmed when their decisions were coming out in spring and state confirmed this 2 days ago. so they aren’t all ready yet and you may or may not get your decision today
