Hey, I was going to put this post in foliage thread but I think it is more off topic banter. As a semi pro retired photographer one of my pet peeves is that so many people take pictures these days and then post produce them so you don't know what is real and what is not. Back in the day we could not do this pre digital. I will give you an example. We have a well known photographer in our area. People are always commenting in Newfound Area Facebook Group how fantastic his pictures look. So vibrant and colorful, a real master! Yesterday he rented a plane and took this picture of Newfound Lake. So today I took my high end drone which has a fantastic camera and went to the highest hill to take the same picture. Both images are below. Mine is out of the camera, no edits. I understand everyone's eye is different so some post editing is fine, for instance my dehaze tool because that takes away something that on a clear day would not be there. By the way the photographers image was yesterday and mine today so if anything the colors should be better as we still have not peaked.
There use to be a commercial some of the old timers might remember. Which one is real and which one is Memorex"?
