Phegan<p>Snapped this at an abandoned site that’s totally covered in graffiti—layers and layers of messages, tags, and art.</p><p>I boosted the contrast just slightly on this one to try and bring out more color without losing the rawness. Still learning, so I’d genuinely love any feedback or thoughts—especially on editing choices or how you’d frame something like this.</p><p>📷 Canon EOS R10</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Photography</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PhotoFeedback" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PhotoFeedback</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/GraffitiPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GraffitiPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/AbandonedPlaces" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AbandonedPlaces</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/CritiqueWelcome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CritiqueWelcome</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/LearningPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LearningPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/CanonR10" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CanonR10</span></a></p>
MikeAnother shot from the same abandoned structure.<br> <br> I gave this one a very light contrast boost, just enough to try and bring out some of the color without going too far.

AGuyChasingPhotos<p>2023 Photo Challenge 121/365<br>This was a super underexposed shot I took on a bright summer's day. I was just starting out in manual and forgot to adjust exposure for every different shot. I had been avoiding it almost 11 months now. Using the skills I have been growing was able to bring this back in some form. <a href="https://photog.social/tags/photoshopedit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photoshopedit</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/buttons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>buttons</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/learningphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>learningphotography</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/learningphotoshop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>learningphotoshop</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/2023photochallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>2023photochallenge</span></a></p>
Hypnotic<p>When I’m not anaesthetising I love photography. I’m not trained and somewhat regret that I don’t know more about the technical side of photography (it’s on a to do list). I have a nice camera but I use my iPhone an awful lot.
