You're shooting against the light, so getting the correct exposure will be difficult. The sky is overexposed, and the panda is a bit underexposed. Getting a good even exposure will be difficult, especially for stock photography. I think the main rejection reason is exposure! ... View more

Hello, One issue with drone cameras is that the sensor size is fairly small. In your case, the drone DJI mini 4 is small 1/1.3 inch. Despite what it might say on the box, the quality cannot compete with a larger sensor e.g. a DSLR The drone sensor is similar to a smartphone camera. The sensor is not good in low light. Noise will appear. However, when viewing small it is not so noticeable, but when you enlarge you can see the noise - as in your case. It is not the fault of Adobe's AI Denoise, even though other programmes may seem to do better.   This is a problem with smaller sensors. The larger sensor sizes in DSLRs allow for better image quality, more detail, and better low-light performance. ...

Hello, File 1172, the surfer isn't blurry:   However, there is another major issue - light fall-off - lens vignetting. Because you used a long focal length and a wide aperture, the light at the corners of the photo is dark :     You have to correct this in post-production. This is apparent in all of the photos.       ... View more

... As professional scientists all the people Ive spoken to value open access and transparency over a privately owned platform with a clear agenda...   By @svolzke   Over time, Bluesky will no doubt follow suit- to become a 'toxic' environment - because it is open access, it is open to everyone, as X is. People will give their opinions - because we all like to give opinions - but over time there will be opinions that go against the tide; those who go against the tide will be labelled 'toxic'.  (Because apparently, X is now 'toxic'.) Bluesky may indeed be a breath of fresh air, but over time it will most probably become 'toxic'. Social media is open to good apples and bad apples, and that's the way it is. However... The only way to keep it 'pure' is censorship, limit the use of language, and for the dissenters, to 'reeducate' them so that they now follow the narrative - as Winston found out. He was a 'dissenter, who went against the tide, but soon discovered that it was impossible, and after being 're-educated ' ended up believing the mainstream narrative.   By the way, what is the clear agender of X? It was supposed to be a public square, wasn't it?     ... View more

Mediaite is left-wing, so that explains everything. The media these days are extremely biased - even the UK -The Guardian - is far left!  Although... Media Bias Fact Check says: " They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor progressive/liberal causes."

It's curious how the tables have turned with Twitter/X. The shoe is on the other foot! So, does this mean that Bluesky and X are now political? Those who are liberal will go to Bluesky, and those who are conservative will be on X. What kind of world are we living in?   Bluesky might get popular for a while, but because it is open to anybody, it's impossible to keep it 'pure' unless censorship is installed. (Or as Elon says, 'a digital chastity belt' - interview with Don Lemon.) Welcome 1984! Truth is stranger than fiction.        ... View more

Hello, Yeah, viewed at 100% you get this:     As it was taken with a smartphone, quality isn't that good when enlarged. Therefore, it can pose a problem if the person who downloaded the pic wants to enlarge the photo and see the artefacts; they won't be a happy camper! The artefacts are connected with JPG compression. ... View more

Hello, You are not the only one - I've noticed this with some landscape shots. There isn't any pattern! It depends on the focal length used, and angle of panning etc. If your shot contains lines, as yours does, Lightroom Classic is not so good at exactly lining them up - and it's more noticeable  - hence going to Photoshop can give a better result. With landscape shots, it's not so noticeable as the distance is further. It becomes more apparent when shot close up.  ... View more

Hello,   A bit late, but... Regarding your sync issues with Lightroom Classic, I suggest the following. Open Lightroom Desktop,  On Lightroom Classic sync tab, click on the file that is syncing - this will then locate the file in Lightroom Desktop       Make a small change, e.g exposure, this will make a change to the metadata, and hence it will download the change to Lightroom Classic The syncing in Lightroom is therefore synced!   I had a problem with syncing from Lightroom Classic to Lightroom Desktop - the metadata from Lightroom Classic to Lightroom Desktop got stuck, it would be uploading for hours, and no changes. There seems to be a syncing problem in uploading to the Desktop version, but no syncing problems in downloading. Locating the 'problem files' and fixing the problem in the Lightroom Desktop, the syncing issue was resolved.   If you can't locate the file in Lightroom Desktop, then remove it from the Lightroom Sync tab - Right Click, I think it was to remove the file.   Remember, if you are uploading an image file from Lightroom Classic, only a smart preview will be uploaded to Lightroom Desktop. Images from Lightroom Desktop can be downloaded to Lightroom Classic.   Makes sense?   ... View more

Hello, It's because of the eagle's feathers on the head - most probably:     What I would do, if you can is to do some masking -though it may depend on your software application - but in Lightroom Classic or Adobe Photoshop, you can mask the eagle and bring down the highlights. I would also crop a bit, so the eagle is not lost among the trees.   ... View more
