Someone asked the other day ‘why so photoshopped’, when I basically did nothing to the image’. The commenter was downvoted heavily and I thought that’s not good. I liked the discussion tbh. So I thought more transparency would be good on what I do with the images. I only do this for fun, so don’t have anything to hide

Feel free to make it one

Edited the title

Wasn’t sure whether you’d get tired of the joke, so I left out the ‘in Slovenia’.

I tried that but found that it is still too unpopulated. The instances I found just had posts by the same five people. But I agree, the software is great, it just lacks an audience :)

TL/DR; c/pics and c/photography are the only places I share images.

Wow - that’s quite the compliment for a dude who just likes to post holiday images. I don’t post my pictures anywhere else, as I don’t believe in letting Meta and others commercialize my photos or feed their AI monsters with it.

I like it here, I like the federation, I like that nobody restricts my upload size or compresses my images and I really like the vibe of the whole place and that I can just pay a buck a month to cover my costs instead of lots of ads and data scraping. Some months ago I thought c/pics is great but it could do with more content. So instead of complaining I started posting my own humble tries here, following the motto mediocre content is better than no content.

I’ll take your question as encouragement and keep posting.

Oh wow, didn’t expect that :)

Thanks!

Sensor noise on higher gains I’d guess. Normally I take images like this in manual and fiddle around with the settings until I get it right. In this case I had to be quick because the light was changing by the minute so I shot in auto. But I agree with you, I also liked the effect here that’s why I kept it.

Didn’t do any editing, came out of the camera like that. But dji already does quite heavy editing. The problem is that the raw format in which they save the file is AFAIK only fully implemented by Photoshop, so working with jpegs it is…

The cave’s interior is out of a story book, with stalactites, stalacmites and gigantic round dripstones, cathedral like openings, waterfalls and tight spots to dive and press through. Was a real adventure
