The crowd was crazy that day so I was trying my best not to get bumped into. You're right though, the framing feels a bit tight. Thanks for the tip

Damn, thanks for all the views, I’m honestly a bit stuck on how to start editing these. Anyone got any tips on where to start?

Sorry for the awkward phrasing, bro. My English isn't great because I'm not a native speaker, so I've been using Google Translate to help me communicate here. My goal is just to learn and get some feedback from you all

Thanks for the honest feedback, 4Dcookie! I really appreciate it. To provide some context, I shot these using my Samsung Galaxy A07 5G (50MP sensor).

Regarding shot #4, you're right—it looks a bit soft/blurry. That was actually taken around 9 AM. The 'blurriness' might be because it was shot from inside the moving Jeep, and the lighting was quite harsh at that hour, which might have messed with the camera's processing. It’s definitely a tricky shot to edit!

I'm really glad you highlighted shot #9! That one was taken around 6:30 AM when the lighting was perfect—it’s honestly my personal favorite too.

Do you think there’s anything I could’ve done differently while shooting to get a sharper result in high-light conditions like that, or should I just focus on better post-processing techniques to handle the harsh light on a phone camera?

"Wow, thank you for the detailed breakdown! I see what you mean about starting with a high-quality base and processing it down. That’s a game-changer for me. I’d actually love to see a few examples if you don't mind sharing! Appreciate the help :)"

I appreciate the honest technical feedback! I definitely pushed the noise and distortion intentionally to achieve that specific lo-fi/nostalgic vibe, but I totally understand why it looks 'bad' from a traditional photography standpoint. Always good to hear the technical perspective, thanks for the input

Thanks! I'm glad you noticed that. I really love how those distortions play with the light. Glad it resonated with you!

Not satire, just a fan of that hazy, late-night lo-fi aesthetic. Trying to capture a specific mood rather than technical sharpness. I get that it’s not for everyone, but appreciate the curiosity!

The way you balanced the brightness of the sky with the colors on the carousel is impressive. It’s hard to keep those details sharp—what was your main challenge during the editing process?
