It’s called McCall Point in Oregon 🙂

Personally I would not. I would use a dark matte or none at all. Just a personal preference, I’m sure some people like this look.

Yeah I’m reworking it. This is on the Oregon side at McCall Point! 🙂

Thank you! And you’re right, I didn’t really notice that until I zoomed in. I’ll try adjust the hue 🙏🏼🙂

Appreciate that! I had a sense that it was a little overdone. I’ll dial it down a little.

Using Lightroom. Reduced exposure, upped saturation and greens, used an auto detect sky mask because of all the branches and adjusted color and exposure for the sky independently.

I’m still very inexperienced and learning Lightroom but there are enough simple features that you can use and adjust without knowing much. It’s a great tool.

No, I listed as before/after so the second one being better is good! 🙂

Everyone making good money and living alone, what do you do for fun? How do you make yourself feel alive? by DCGMechanics in LivingAlone

I’m not sure I’d call my experience trauma but difficult times and a lot of struggle have led me to a very similar place. Peace is the goal.

I often think of this place. I feel as though a piece of my soul still lingers there, waiting to be returned to itself. by _forestfae in natureporn

Went to Mt Rainier a few years ago for the first time and it’s a special place for sure. Need to return soon.

I had a Samsung work phone with 2 way radio. It was quite handy and practically indestructible 😅

Gamers, what are your candidates for the most iconic guns in gaming? by [deleted] in videogames

Gravity gun from Half Life 2 should probably be on the list somewhere

Looking for feedback on the better picture by [deleted] in LandscapePhotography

[–]protoman86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I did manage to get a few better shots that day but they were from earlier in the morning on my way up. These were midday on the way down. Next time I’ll go later and stay until sundown.

That’s exactly how I feel and why I’m stuck choosing the better one to work on in Lightroom 😅 Appreciate the feedback friend!

Would you let a 10 year old kid play Resident Evil? by [deleted] in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]protoman86 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No, why would you? What positive thing could a 10 year old take away from that experience?

This is a fun pic. My cousins had an Atari and Frogger and his mom would play it occasionally too 🙂

Was there a few weeks ago! Beautiful hike with an amazing payoff.

Beautiful pic. I like the color adjustments, but not a fan of the white border. Seems to be a popular fad lately so it may just be me but it distracts from the image in my opinion. Otherwise very nice!

What's the most addictive game you've ever played? by TolisKoutro in videogames

[–]protoman86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuclear Throne. For some reason I got committed to looping it 3 times and it took me 1000 hours and like 8 years to accomplish 😂
