So ready for Summer... ☀️

Just a little hygge... ♥

This felt so right for the first day of Spring 💮♥

Needed an updated profile pic and liked the working copy... ❤️

I feel a bit like a villain from a Harry Potter film or something today... 😄

Technically from last night but just had some fun trying to edit it, etc. today... ♥

Thanks ❤️ I always take the noise filter off on myself… just out of habit. I did too; that’s why I had to take a pic. The sky settings in this sim are lovely! ❤️

Just really enjoyed my costume for some of last night's festivities and wanted to document it ♥

Thank you 😊

Trying something new. A pretty stark change...

Thank you! ♥ I use the Black Dragon viewer whenever I am taking pictures as I find the lighting is best captured there. Typically, after I take my pictures I blow out one side of them intentionally with an oversized brush where the lighting source would be. Depending on how much time or patience I have I will also often added a hazy "halo" along the side that should be getting the direct hit of the light source. It's not for any particular reason other than that it's something I personally respond to. I like to shoot on a plain 50/50 gray backdrop out of habit so I just find it sometimes adds an element of interest to the images. My other typical edits are to adjust the levels slighting depending on my mood to enhance the contrast and then I typically throw in some vibrance as well. I didn't in the instance of the picture above, but I almost always also add noise/grain for everything that isn't the direct subject/focus. I am attaching a snip of raw/unedited image from Black Dragon below if that's helpful:
