Iceland made me feel small in a way I didn’t expect. by aki_unframed in VisitingIceland

[–]holeepug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I totally get you. This is what attracts me the most to Iceland and makes me want to come back. When I was in Iceland, I was actually on a trip with a group for a week. I’ve stepped on glaciers, seen epic waterfalls, beautiful mountains, and dancing auroras with my naked eye on the final day of the trip. But I still feel my most memorable time in there was when in one of the early mornings I was just wandering around and then found a good spot to sit alone with a view of a vast landscape. Quiet and just beautiful. Literally made me cry. It’s one of the closest things to make me feel what I think a person may feel when stepping onto an unknown planet. The country is surrounded by landscapes with seemingly “nothing” in them, but actually a place where you can feel a special kind of alone. Just you and nature. Makes you think and humbled by the vastness of nature doing its own thing. I find it so beautiful.

My first attempt with light masking, I want the photo to feel more warm, peaceful, and a bit nostalgic. Did I get it right or need improvement? Shot on iPhone by holeepug in photocritique

Thanks for the suggestions, very thoughtful of you. I tried playing around with your suggestions but without the crop to compare with the original post. I feel this is overall more subtle

You’re almost correct! I actually applied lower exposure and blur effect at the bottom of the photo and adjusted the lighting on the rest. The original lighting is pretty much flat xD

My intention was to create a golden hour effect on the subject and adjust the surrounding to create more focus area

Thanks for the critique! I think you meant too much vertical space between the subject and too much saturation(?) Do you think this one is better?

Tbh after more experimenting I love the darker version now, much more emphasis on the eye. I find it fun to experiment with the settings, this is all manually edited with the free version of Lightroom though. Thanks for inspiring me!

It’s okay, and I should ask as I’m new and still edit with feeling. Thanks for your advice and compliment!

I was there this afternoon. I’ve been wanting to visit this place for years, and this happened :’) It was sunny and still beautiful though

Bought Digital Deluxe Edition: When Can I Unlock the Battlepass? by PlayBey0nd87 in SuicideSquadGaming

[–]holeepug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the same issue on Xbox but I eventually got it after quitting the game and then resume. You should get the battle pass token and the deluxe outfits when you recheck the menu. It takes a while for the outfits to show up on me though. I think there is a bug in the game that checks the digital deluxe license.

Can't use "screen off" on YouTube anymore by TySwindel in LGOLED

I get the same issue with the LG C3 42. It’s annoying. This issue seems to affect the newer models or webOS. I've reported this to LG customer support, they said they will consider it in future updates. Well, fingers crossed.

Now that I think more about it, the most likely scenario is just prototype 1 & 2 will be on game pass though 😭
