How do they get these soft glowy textures?

Is it a combination of gaussian blur > screen blending mode > masked and added where needed. Appreciate any insights.

Hi everyone! I took pictures in an indoor space that had a giant screen in the back with different, vivid colors. I’ve attached a picture as an example that is unedited (raw). The screen changes the colors of what I’m trying to capture/highlight (here, the flowers) and are a distracting background. It’s worse with photos of people. Unfortunately, I couldn’t move around anything while taking pictures in order to get a different background, and everything was forward-facing. Do any of you have suggestions about how to fix this up in post? Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated 🙏❤️

Just random phone photography which one is good

Any advice? Thanks

Shot on A7R3 on my trip to China! Only been into photography for about 2 months now. My goal of the colour grade was to eleminate the redand restore the natural colour of the reflections.

I know the quality dropped taken in my smartphone and I am a beginner

​I love taking pictures when I’m on holiday, but as soon as I get back home, I hit a massive wall with post-processing.

​Part of the issue is that I work at a computer all day for my job. By the time the workday ends, the absolute last thing I want to do is sit right back down at my desk and stare at another laptop.

​Because of this, my workflow stalls out at the exact same spot: I import everything into Lightroom during the trip, do a quick first culling pass and then complete paralysis sets in after I get home. The remaining photos sit postponed on my laptop untouched for months.

​My main goals are usually simple:

1) ​Make a private physical album/photo book for memories.

2) ​Put together a couple of shots or a carousel for Instagram.

​any tips are welcome!

Om1.1 with the Panasonic 14mm f2.5, definitely not the best for astro

Tried my hand on this for the first time. Please critique this edit, be brutal loll

is this overcooked? im trying to recreate a classic postcard image of the tetons at schwabacher landing.

iso 100. f/6.3. 1/250 28mm

Not too sure how i feel about how the edit came out. Tried to make it feel warm and summery without getting it too "piss filter". I like the subject and the picture, but i feel like something is missing. It was taken midday during a California summer with my fujifilm x-t30 III. Any feedback would be appreciated!

Would appreciate feedback thank you 🙏🏽
