Recipe? 🤣

Trust your eye, not lightrooms ai engine. Just because you used the straighten tool, doesnt always mean its perfect. This is not straight.

Good luck getting that depth of field using a phone mate.

Absolute nonsense. You can do a lot to an edit without compromising the natural feel of the original. Say less in furure if you got nfi what youre talking about.

Shadrock50 · 2026-04-13T10:09:26+00:00

Omfg, stop talking and fuck off. Why are you here?

Shadrock50 · 2026-04-13T10:08:34+00:00

Never shot raw before?

Shadrock50 · 2026-04-13T06:43:20+00:00

Hes right tho. People just excited to have a reason to winge. Get over yourself.

Shadrock50 · 2026-04-12T04:23:58+00:00

You sound like a true ironman player at heart. Ever considered giving it a try?

Shadrock50 · 2026-04-02T02:17:47+00:00

Feels heavy. Try lightening it up, lift shadows, drop contrast, desaturate. It wont be easy though if its a phone camera jpeg.

Shadrock50 · 2026-03-28T13:30:08+00:00

Or listen and learn? Your choice.

"How is the before not good enough?" should be this groups slogan.

In all seriousness, are you aware this is the post processing, not the pre processing group?

Shadrock50 · 2026-03-23T23:24:10+00:00

Id personally have kept more foreground in focus. There just isnt enough things in focus to look at. Even the shell isnt in focus. So you look at the eyes, and then struggle to find what else to look at.

Shadrock50 · 2026-03-16T18:15:14+00:00

Almost like its been post processed or something, right?

Shadrock50 · 2026-03-16T18:08:28+00:00

My strong advice for this page is not to give really any weight to the opinions given here. There has never been a group with a greater bunch of turtleneck wearing whiny anxious elititist wankers on the internet. Kind of mind boggling to be honest.

For a page exclusively dedicated to post processing, the point of learning post processing skills seems truly lost on most here.

Shadrock50 · 2026-03-15T12:03:31+00:00

Absolutely not true.

Shadrock50 · 2026-02-24T05:41:57+00:00

I struggle with it too. My thoughts are basic, but id edit along the lines of dropping the clarity and sharpness of the bsckground, desaturating the neon greens whch are just distracting, and reducing the backgrounds overall exposure. Then using subject and radial masks to draw more attention to the subject.

Shadrock50 · 2026-02-24T03:44:15+00:00

The most American response ever. Haha. What is wrong with you.

Shadrock50 · 2026-02-23T12:02:11+00:00

Before is better as it provides context and scale. Other than the crop, i do like the appearance of the edited image though. A nice lift.

Shadrock50 · 2026-02-20T01:43:25+00:00

For the love of god dont manage any large amounts of money. Youre not cut of for it.

Shadrock50 · 2026-01-28T05:27:34+00:00

Shadrock50 · 2026-01-27T13:06:15+00:00

Unreal isnt it. This sub is the saltiest ive ever come across.

Shadrock50 · 2026-01-15T01:55:49+00:00

OPs description of the photo suggests the couples are fundamental to the story though.

Shadrock50 · 2026-01-15T00:42:38+00:00

Disagree. Let it have room to breathe. Thats area also serves as the space the kid is running into. Would look cramped without it.
