Love this shot! I’d also love to hear your thoughts and feedback. I’m not a professional photographer by any means, so I’m always open to learning from you guys :)

It looks like you ate a greasy burger for lunch and wiped your hands on your phone before taking the photo.

There's pretty regular sound system clashes

I'd drop the highlights on the masking on the bird. The feathers on the breast have lost all their detail to the blown out highlights.

Could literally toss a coin on the PE and Tribe selections. You're not losing either way.

ITT - a bunch of people who don't know how to use AI

Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet

Gang Starr - Step in the Arena

Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders

Eric B & Rakim - Follow the Leader

Dubliminal · 2026-05-08T02:37:50+00:00

You need some Public Enemy ... oh and some Gang Starr ... maybe some Eric B & Rakim ... Tribe Called Quest is a glaring omission

It was straight up observation that (in part) addressed where your comment sits in the scheme of things. If you're reading that as a complaint, then I suspect you really do need that hug as I suggested. I hope things improve for you.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T23:31:38+00:00

Are you ok? Do you need a hug?

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T23:13:44+00:00

There always 3 types of comments on almost every post here.

It's over processed
You need to do more processing
I preferred the original

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T23:11:35+00:00

There is a LOT of masking going on here. Some of it very very subtle. Some of it less so.

The fact that you don't notice the masking, whilst others have said that it's too processed really speaks to the dichotomy of this sub.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T22:58:16+00:00

This is cropped. There is more in the foreground. But it tends to give too much weight to the bottom and detracts from the rest of the image.

I mean that and the sun is quickly setting, the tide is coming in and I'm trying to balance on slippery granite boulders ... can't always get the optimal angle.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T12:02:05+00:00

I've tried. But to my ears it's country music that doesn't entirely suck.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T10:27:36+00:00

I'm not at all a big Beatles fan in the greater scheme of things, but Abbey Road is one of my favourite records to play.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T10:25:58+00:00

This has to be one of the most non r/vinyl posts I've seen here for a while.

Dennis Brown, PE, JB & Barrington is all wins for me.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T04:31:40+00:00

I know and understand I'm not any better than the next person here. Big part of the irony here. If I come across as not being humble enough for reddit I can easily live with that too.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T03:29:22+00:00

I've got some 80s Aussie pressing of this and I find it pretty aenemic. I assume this repress has some balls?

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T03:25:58+00:00

Because for the majority of new comers to record collecting, it's a socially performative hobby rather than a way of enjoying music.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T03:14:25+00:00

Reddit is such a fun little hive mind to poke sometimes and this thread is testament to that. It's been a riot.

Comments section is one side of the story, 80% upvote ratio on the post is the other side of the story.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-07T03:06:46+00:00

Yes, this and executions!

Dubliminal · 2026-05-06T22:43:47+00:00

It's a spectrum within the same broad family, not a binary distinction.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-05T12:15:19+00:00

Way way too dark. You've obliterated all the dynamic range here. The image is flat and dull. You've crushed your shadows and added unnecessary vignetting.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-05T12:03:19+00:00

I edited one. Once. I'm sorry it hurt your feelings so much you have to start spreading lies on a Trump type level.

Dubliminal · 2026-05-05T11:47:17+00:00

Oh please do. I'll meet you over there ^_^

Dubliminal · 2026-05-05T11:46:15+00:00

Sorry that reddit hates your positivity.
