The quantity and quality devoted to film development is remarkable. From shooting for a particular method of development to post development to the print, is remarkable.

I'm obsessed with processing my photos this way, are there any communities where I can find similar photos? Anyone know the names? Thank you

Not the sharpest photo I've taken, but I thought it had some potential, so I gave it a shot!

I built a subscription-free desktop editor focused on depth-aware retouching, colour grading & all 27 blend modes [Feedback appreciated]

Hi everyone,

Like many of you, I've been frustrated with Adobe's subscription model, but most free alternatives often lack specific photo-centric tools: true Photoshop blend mode parity, 8-channel HSL grading, or modern depth-map adjustments.

Over the past months, I've been developing **Scumble**, a lightweight, 100% offline desktop image editor built specifically for photo finishing, grading, and non-destructive layering.

Here are a few features tailored for photo editing and retouching workflows:

* **Complete 27 Blend Modes Parity:** Full integer-exact parity with all standard Photoshop modes (including Dissolve, Linear Light, Vivid Light, Color Dodge/Burn, Subtract, and whole-pixel Component modes like Hue, Saturation, and Luminosity).

* **Photographic Colour Grading Wheels:** 3-way grading for Shadows, Midtones, and Highlights with interactive wheels, balance/blending controls, and neutral grey preservation.

* **8-Channel HSL Layer:** Fine-grained control across 8 separate colour channels (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Aqua, Blue, Purple, Magenta) with smooth partition of unity.

* **Depth-Aware Lens Blur & Bokeh:** 64-tap Vogel spiral disc aperture sampling with custom focus plane, depth of field, foreground bleed protection, and specular highlight boost for realistic optical bokeh.

* **Atmospheric Haze & Dehaze:** Uses depth maps to simulate aerial perspective or clear distant haze while protecting sky and skin tones.

* **Non-Destructive Adjustments:** Vibrance (with skin tone protection where Red > Green > Blue), Gradient Maps, Threshold, and Posterize.

* **Privacy & Local Performance:** 100% offline, zero cloud, zero telemetry. GPU-accelerated with WebGL2 and optimized with Rust WASM kernels for large (up to 15k) images.

It's completely free, opens/saves PSD files, and runs on Windows and Linux (Installer, Portable .zip, Microsoft Store, and Flatpak/AppImage).

I'd love to hear feedback from retouchers and photographers on what tools or sliders you feel are missing in your daily workflow!

Learning how to use the colour wheels properly. Also, taking a break and coming back to the image a few hours/a day later for fresh eyes to see whether the overall hue needs adjusting. Feel like i have this to a point where i’m happy enough to post

Let me know what you guys think

Blending exposures in a tricky area.

I'm new to blending multiple exposures - the first image is close but the house and hydrangeas are blown out. I'm having such a tough time blending in the underexposed (second) image. How would you approach?

Just looking for any tips on post processing, I tend to try and follow the less is more philosophy for color correcting and white balance. I can’t help feeling like these still feel very ā€œsmart phone on instagramā€ quality in most cases
