just tried this edit that was an attempt to create a moodier, more artistic image by enhancing the texture and depth of the petals.

Hi,

Finally getting my head round Darktable and wanted feedback on this edit.

Not a particularly interesting composition but thought a good one to practice editing on

Any and all constructive criticism welcome!

Not the most astonishing pic, I know. But, I'm still very much a beginner. Would love some constructive criticism on composition and editing!!!

left is my attempt at processing, right is raw. it seems colors are off. can you help me

I took some raw photos online and try to process them.

I have 0 photography background and decided to pick up as a hobby. Got a Fujifilm xt30iii but didn’t really like majority of the “yellow tint” recipes I’ve seen (I guess another option is playing around w the WB on each recipe depending on time of day

so I’ve decided to try to shoot Raw and edit on LightRoom Mobile.

My subject doesn’t have that pop or crisp I’m looking for….what am I doing wrong?

The last 8 photos - are images colors I’ve seen on IG, that I wanna replicate…

Experimenting with this look for the first time. Appreciate help🙏

If you've never had the chance to work in a photo studio, here's your chance—I built an online photography studio! The link is in the comments.

went for the warmer grainy highlights what do you think?

Since last year I've been obsessed with fog and the atmosphere it creates. There was a beautiful storm over the weekend which combined with the heat led to this scene. What do you think of the edit? Going for mood above all, but hopefully did not overdo it. Feedback welcome!

Im starting to take my photo more seriously and paying more attention to my histogram and metering. What are some tips and tricks I can absorb like a sponge?

Tried to go for the nostalgic film look

I posted a before/after of an owl the other day and talked about how I use masking to make subjects pop. But I've recently discovered/learned a method of noise reduction different from the Denoise and Manual Noise Reduction tools, and it's actually pretty simple. Using an inverted subject mask and lowering the sharpness will soften the grain caused by digital noise; the Texture and Clarity sliders can achieve this too when lowered, but those make pretty broad adjustments and tend to make things too soft or dull.

EDIT: Meant to include that sometimes the noise reduction tools tend to make things a bit too smooth for my taste. This method leans toward softening which I feel pushes sharpness further than smoothing.
