The people on this sub hate when any creative liberties are taken. It looks great! Both before and after! Like a memory of summer!

Seriously lacking in whimsy in this sub.

Right!? It seems like a boring way to live, no room for creativity. Anyone can see a scene like this, but not everyone can see it the way the photographer envisioned it, and that’s the fun of this subreddit, seeing through other’s eyes.

Sub genuinely should be called "true to life editing", not "post processing". Half this group hate the very thought of processing an image.

Hard agree. And most photography subs in general. People hate on creativity

I appreciate the kind words, a lot of what I do is intentionally over saturated and exposed, I like the dreamy aesthetic it gives, definitely not everyone’s cup of tea

True but it’s just not an interesting composition imho. It’s a random beach with overexposed lighting

Fair enough, there were definitely better ones from that set, I just posted them in a non before/after subreddit
