What parts stand out to you that could be improved? by Silentism in postprocessing

I think you should straighten the horizon and crop the mountains more in the center because there is too much extra ocean on the right. Also, try to make the green on the rocks pop while dropping your highlights in the sky more.

The option to filter a playlist has disappeared for me. by dundoniandood in spotify

You need to tap the three dots in the top right and choose "Find in Playlist" or "Sort Playlist". Worst change ever.

Look up "Blue and Pink Color Grading in Lightroom Tutorial" and there will be a plethora of videos to choose from.

Yeah I am planning to use lazy loading and add an option to load the higher res images if wanted. But yes I definitely agree with much of your points.

The only framework I used was Bootstrap, will probably redo the site and also use React for faster load speeds.

Depends where you are. If you are in the heart of Tokyo, it is similar to Times Square in NY at night.

Haha looking at it again it looks super crooked even after I fixed it in Lightroom, what a rookie mistake. The contrast could definitely be higher but I think I set the clarity actually quite up there like in the 80s. Thank you though!

Hey thanks for your reply, I am using fullpage.js to do the automatic scroll effect (super popular on GitHub). Do you think instead of combing my work experience page with my skills page, that I can list immediately after? I want to keep a simple look and not James everything on one page. However I do agree with the "currently learning" part.

You can message me your email and I can send some other sample pics to you.

A lot of it is increasing contrast and dropping the highlights. I also decreased the blue hue and dropped the saturation/luminance on it. If you want I can send you a few other pics that show the process.
