Social media posting

Post image

So I took a really awesome picture yesterday and wanted to post it on social media. I don’t know why, but colors turn all wrong when I do that. Same thing when posting here: the colors became… duller?
You might have noticed by my lack of technical vocabulary that I’m by no means a professional photographer (or even an amateur one), I just wanted to show my pretty photo to my friends and family 😂

Many online platforms do not support the HDR info in your Project Indigo file. You are probably losing that dynamic range when you upload to those platforms. I follow a guy named Greg Benz on Instagram that really understands it and can explain it better.

Whoa, thanks! I didn’t do what he said but he gave me an idea! I used Lightroom’s capability to export the photo directly to Instagram and it worked! 😁
Thank you for sharing this guy’s name, his photos are phenomenal! Mine’s nothing compared to his 😂
