Calibrated my monitor and did my first round of editing and I'm curious as to what you guys think. CC is very welcome as well as sharing PP techniques. I feel like since calibrating, my photos look much better

1/8 no part of that photo is in focus
2/8 nice contrast but pretty underwhelming
3/8 best photo here but the sky is pretty uninteresting
6/8 seriously do you not know how to focus? dial that f-stop back enough to get the entire subject in focus, maybe like f-8 or so here
>>2872092
Far too vivid colors. Check your monitor settings to see if the contrast is set low or the vivid-ness is low.
>>2872103
the blues here in the shadows are overwhelming and bizarre
>>2872104
is too colorful and the shadows are too dark, in my opinion.
You're off to a good start, though. All this is fixable.
Your calibration a shit OP, your photos too desu senpai.
Is this a troll thread?
Not sure you understand the meaning of calibration

I like these. the masking around the trees needs some work though (or your HDR process), it's really obvious. I like the oversaturated colors on the dandelion, and the sky behind the trees has a nead otherwordly look
>>2872095
>>2872096
these are photos everybody takes. bland.
>>2872094
I feel like you need to get closer, because this is bland. too much hdr.
>>2872102
somebody mentioned the focus. your red channel might also be blown out in spots. boring comp honestly, it's just a snap of a redbud
>>2872104
you need lower (but get your plane of focus PERFECT) or much higer dof to make this work, and I'm pretty sure it would still be boring. asit is, the bokeh is ugly.
overall it screams highschool but you'll get better

>Calibrated my monitor
what kind of monitor and how did you calibrate it?
>curious as to what you guys think.
post before/after comparisons
>>2872096
