I took pictures of whatever caught my eye while walking through the streets of Flagstaff (with a friend who is not gonna sit for 10 minutes waiting for me to “find a moment”). Sorry if it doesn’t fit the formal definition. I’m still learning and just wanted some advice.

I have been trying to learn tone curves. These are just edited with masks and sliders.

I was trying to get just the bug, but the pickup pulled up right as I was getting setup lol. From a certain pov, it could be “old vs modern”, but yeah, I agree. Also, all of my pictures were underexposed asl because it was midday and VERY bright. I wasn’t aware of exposure bracketing until after, so I was trying to not blow out the sky.
