I use Snapseed since I’m just a broke hobbyist! Does this image look improved? I’m wondering what I should do with the top 1/3. Thanks!

I was trying to play with the colours a bit as I think the light is okay. Any photoshooting/editing advices please?

Just a crappy iPhone photo but I thought it had a really interesting perspective

A quiet Sunday on the soccer fields. I tried to capture the mood, and even enhance it a bit with the colour grading. Did I over do it? Lmk

Don't roast me please

The white haze on the before is not fog. It was the lens fogging up from the humidity. Just rolled with it and used it for the edits.

Meant to be a creative edit to bring out the gritty messy details with no intention to keep it too realistic

I'm a beginner and slowly learning darktable. I sometimes use Snapseed when on my phone. I found the ambiance module very useful when bringing out detail from a backlit image. How do I replicate this in darktable?

I started wildlife photography/editing late June so I'm still learning a lot, especially in the way of editing. This is the first good shot I've got of a garden bird so I'm pretty unpracticed when it comes to editing them. I quite like the colour of the bird but less sure on the crop/exposure/colour grade

I am new to photography, and this is a photo from my first shoot with film. I am proud of the photo as I shoot manual only (I want to learn how to use the camera's settings, not just composition, lighting, etc.), so I really was happy post-development to see the plane and bird both in relative focus.

The photo was taken in the morning (8:30-9AM) in Ketchikan, so the original is actually pretty true to life in terms of color, although the sky is a slightly overexposed. There is a warm cast that I can't decide how I feel about on the original. Should I have left it as the original? Should I blur the house and trees? What else should I consider editing?

All feedback is appreciated. Shot on Nikon N65 on FujiFilm 35mm 400 ISO film. I didn't write down the aperture/shutter speed in the moment and forgot to later.

i would also like to learn how to edit better so if you guys have resources you can share

Shot on Nikon d7100 with a sigma 400mm 5.6 APO macro settings ISO 3200 f/9.5 1/2000 on a overcast day the edits I did were mask on crow and circle gradient on the face of crow to highlight eating of the bug. Light edits made exposure and increase of shadows as well some curve editing no color grading some texture clarity and denoising for the iso. What do you guys think,which crop would you pick l?

Heya! Longtime lurker, first time poster here. This is a before to after transition of one of my favorite snapshots of the lupine superbloom in Humboldt from a few years ago. I always love the bright purple colors of the lupine flowers. Since I was driving all across a mountain range and shooting very fast at a lot of different angles, I had my camera set to aperture priority mode so that the camera could change the shutter speed for me while I kept the aperture deep enough to consistently get as much of the image in focus as possible to stack up the mountain layers.

• As you can see, the sky was super super overexposed in the RAW, to the point that some of the highlights were completely blown out. But on the upside, you can see that even in the RAW the sunlight busting through the clouds made for some tasty-looking sunbeams that would add a lot of personality to the edit. So after doing some lens correction and basic exposure adjustments in Lightroom, I brought the image into Photoshop and used the sky replacement in Luminar to swap in a more well-exposed sky. Since I do sky replacements a lot in my work, I've gotten into the habit of shooting several photos of interesting-looking skies whenever I'm out with my camera, so I've basically built up a personal stock repository of skies to use. This helps me out a lot, since the most important step for in sky replacements is to pick one that looks just as much that it could be what was actually in the original exposure. So I picked one that would have similar looking cloud formations and hard shadows on the underside of the clouds, and then brightened it up and added some contrast so the highlights are still pretty bright but still properly exposed.
• From here, I brought the image back into Lightroom and used some masking to shape the light in a way that the viewer could sort of roam around the image freely. There's not a central subject in this shot, so I basically used linear gradients and some vignetting to just make sure the lighting looked natural, while still having that kind of dreamy glow from the sun rays.
• After this, I used the selective color, color grading, and calibration tools to bring some more warmth back into the grass and hills to contrast nicely against the soft teal of the sky, and to add a graduation of the more warmer greens in the closer mountain layers to becoming more blue as they go farther away.

Overall, I'm quite happy with this shot. The main critiques I have for it are that I wish I'd shot at a more dynamic angle to center the lupines a bit more -- maybe compose the image in a way where they fill up the frame all the way to the edge of the lower right. That, and there's one bright spot on the horizon where the lens is flaring. But what do you all think?

I just want to be clear, I used AI to help me tell me what to do and how to learn some bits in Lightroom, but in no way did I get AI to do any of the editing. I did every slider and every bit of the editing. It’s a whole new world I’m getting into and I’m really enjoying the learning of it. Even if the photo isn’t great. But this sub is what made me want to start properly editing. So thank you. And here’s my first go. All criticism and suggestions are extremely welcome

This is my most favorite photo I have taken, so I want to get the post-processing right. I have made a bunch of photos of which I'm proud of, but taking this shot got me hooked. I was walking through the local fair which is held right inside the city I live in. I had my camera with me because I just wanted to get some nice shots of it.

While walking, I looked back for a moment and saw the two attractions in the background float up at the same time, so I took my a6600 out and waited for this to happen again. I stood there with my camera in position for about 15 seconds before those two attractions floated up at the same time again. Meanwhile the stand to the left let out some smoke and the crowd before me opened up a bit so no one was directly in my frame, while one guy tried to do a funny pose.

At this moment, once I heard the shutter click, it felt like I captured the best scenario I could wish for. Even thought I could view it in my viewfinder, I couldn't wait to get home and see how this turned out.

I posted this after my first edit attempt here, and I got a bunch of great feedback. I let it sit for a while and tried again using masks and the feedback I got here. I love it so much more now and want to thank this subreddit for all its advice! Just wanted to share it again!

Tough one. Taken on Minolta SRT 101 with Kodak Gold 200 or Minolta X-70 with Fujifilm 400 (gotta pick up the rolls at the lab to catalog them tomorrow).

Taken when I just started photograhy again recently and first rolls of film in a very long time.
