Ooh, I like the foreground edits a great deal @dan-cope 😀

@josiahw Not to make anything more confusing – and I haven’t read all the other comments, etc., all I’ve done is look at all the pictures – but I’m still a big fan of the first one compared to all the others. I don’t like the crop so very much, nor the added light. It kind of seems to white-wash the whole thing, and your color was excellent in the…[Read more]

@josiahw I just had to mention this – I had your first picture up on my screen and my oldest brother walked in. He turned around, took a look, then stood up real stiff and said “WHOOA!!” Then he leaned in real close and said “YIKES that’s a good picture!!!” That’s a really good compliment from him. 😀 Hope that encourages you 😀

@buddingphotographer Yes, thank you! I should have mentioned earlier, but I searched for about an hour before looking for a free software that would do just that, but I had to sign up for things and go to different links, and it was a bit of a pain. Also, once I started downloading things, my computer wouldn’t let me go any further because it…[Read more]

@elianafranzenburg Yup! I totally know where you’re coming from! I don’t have my drivers license yet either which makes photography a hill I have to climb. I send my flash drives through mail though. If you stick it in bubble wrap and put it in a regular-sized envelope with a nice personal letter with 3 dollars worth of stamps on it, they’ll send…[Read more]

Thank you @loganlamar!

Okay, hopefully the last question here – can you do a lot of the same things in Affinity as you can do in Luminar? Or is Affinity just for more graphic design-y work? I guess what I mean is can you change lighting, make things smoother, adjust color and such on Affinity? And is it easy to use? Mostly what I want is to…[Read more]

@elianafranzenburg If you don’t mind me asking, what particular trouble are you having with thumb drives? I’m not sure that I could help you, but I always use thumb drives, and they work beautifully! I got 5 for a really good price (I could probably locate the link if you’re interested) and I think it’s a bit more practical and about the same…[Read more]

@bennett-family I don’t know anything about LightStock, so I can’t help ya out, but I just had to mention that Pixels.com (same thing as FineArtAmerica.com) is a nice place to sell photos as well. That’s where mine are, and I’ve had a good experience. The only thing is that you can only display 25 photos unless you get a paid membership. But it…[Read more]

@bennett-family Those are so gorgeously pretty!!!! 😀

@loganlamar Wow, thank you for taking your time to tell me all that!! I’m saving up to get a photo editor – Skylum’s Luminar looks really neat. I may possibly get that one. Perhaps you already said this, but can you change the photo resolution on there?

I guess I’ll take a shot, @creative-click-photography, since I do a lot of photos like this for Online Farm Markets. 😀

Really good job!! Especially since it sounds like you don’t do a lot of this kind of stuff, I’m impressed! 😀 It’s kind of a whole new field, isn’t it? 😀

If I was the farmer selling this garlic + ginger, I would have a…[Read more]

Thank you @dfrazer I’ll check those out 😀

@vince Thank you – I will definitely consider Affinity. It sounds a lot more affordable – YIKES photoshop!! @elianafranzenburg Yes, I agree Photos is really good at enhancing light.

I’m talking with a photographer friend about changing the resolution. She says I may be able to do it in my camera. Anybody know about this?

@loganlamar What is preview? I was able to do all that you suggested for Photos and exporting and all that (neat – I’d never known all that! 😀 ) but I do want to change the resolution, not just the size. 😀

@loganlamar I’ve got a mac then. 😀

Thank you @buddingphotographer and @loganlamar 😀 Especially for answering so quickly!! It looks like y’all have some awesome information, but my brain is feeling like it does when I’ve got a complicated math problem to figure out, so I think I’ve got to go do something fun before I come and figure out all this complicated techy stuff. 😀 Logan, I…[Read more]

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you @bennett-family 😀

Thank you @dfrazer! I think I’ll need some hands-on experience before I thoroughly understand it, but it mostly makes sense, and it looks like once I’ve thoroughly understood it, it will be extremely helpful. 😀

@jamesstaddon I just realized you’ll probably wonder why! So here’s why: (note that I’m not very experienced in critiquing, and I don’t have much of a reason for each one, just that it ‘looks’ this way to me, or the emotions come across ‘this way,’) 😀

I like the first one – it’s really neat! It makes me think of firefighters arriving at the…[Read more]
