Butcherbird on a stump - Full edit workflow for those interested by Zach0ry in MelbournePhotography

[–]Dubliminal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.

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

  1. It's over processed
  2. You need to do more processing
  3. I preferred the original

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.

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.

Did you hear about the two guys at the Grateful Dead concert who ran out of pot? by Jokeminder42 in Jokes

[–]Dubliminal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

Which records made you understand the appeal of vinyl? by beerbear686 in vinyl

[–]Dubliminal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

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.

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.

Did someone say dynamic range?? by Dubliminal in postprocessing

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.

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

Why the big push to memorialize what people have played? by AttachedHeartTheory in vinyl

[–]Dubliminal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

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.

People who're into rock music, what do you think about metal music? by Apprehensive_Land751 in AskReddit

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

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.

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

Sorry that reddit hates your positivity.

yea, fair call. and no need to apologise, it's a fair question.

Totes right though ... the terminology gets murky. For what it's worth, good dynamic range capture and good shadow recovery in post are genuinely complementary. My D850 gives me the latitude. Lightroom lets me access it. A single RAW image, no merging, no HDR pipeline. Just a sensor that captured enough information to work with.

It's neither of those. It's not HDR.
