My guess is it's flickr. They probably have an optimal size that you should upload that they'll compress "properly", similarly to how Facebook does it.

This is why I refuse to post any of my photos on a photo hosting site because they typically look like shit after they go through their own compressions.

That pic would be far more interesting if that tire was caked with mud, rather than a few random blades of grass.

I don't see the caption for the picture.

I see "Offroad Magazine" and a tire that looks like it was driven carefully over someone's lawn. When I see that I think "mall crawler".

I don't Facebook. But if that's where I need to go to "understand the meaning" of your picture then there's something fundamentally wrong here.

Love it a lot. It's great for landscapes. It won't work for moving things like you shoot.. Autofocus is too slow (not sure if that's why you were asking?)

Dude... Are you going to point this out in every pic I post? I get it... Something isn't translating from my monitor to clubsi... It is what it is.

I just checked the camera settings...

A7r, Sony FE 24-70/4
F8
1/200
ISO250
70mm

Single shot

I've brought up the shadows probably one stop, added some contrast and a touch of saturation.. No sharpening or noise reduction. I'm looking at it right now on photoshop and it's clean as can be. I can't explain why it looks like shit on clubsi.. It def looks different on here than it does on my HD...

I can either stop posting here, or you can stop pointing out that all my shots look like shit on this server.. I'm fine with either.

That is odd about Flickr doing that.

Maybe try posting using the actual Flickr BBC code link instead of what you are using?

Going back to this in light of the recent salty post, and I'm telling you it's not true. There are other sites for sure and even some other forums that display retina ready images. No image on this site, ever, looks as good as a JPEG I can upload to imgur, let alone what it looks like in PS or LR.

Go to olafphotoblog.com or fujivsfuji.com and tell me photos look the same as they do here.

Oh yeah for sure. The pictures on Flickr.com do look a lot better than here. Less noise or something.

There's a lot less noise.. I'll agree.. The images directly in this thread that I've posted look like dogshit.. Especially that last one of the sunset.

Wow, wasn't trying to ruffle the panties. I have never noticed the banding before in your shots, I just happen to notice it in this shot.

Yeah.. I overreacted a bit there.. Just frustrated trying to figure out why the images are sucking on here..

How are they looking if you click on the links I posted above?

I haven't seen any other image on this site, posted as a photography photo, do that. None of Nate's images have an issue, none of the ones i've posted from my personal site (no compression) have an issue, hence why've i've been asking the question. This is typical of a compression tool when a photo is uploaded to a photo hosting site so I just wanted to call it out and see if that was the case or not.

I'm not trying to bag on anyone or say their photos suck, it's just a general observation. If someone has taken it otherwise, I apologize.

No worries.

The first one of the road still has a bit of the grit there, may be because of sharpening, but I can tell you that it is much better looking through that link than the JPEG referenced here.

The one I mentioned banding about, I didn't see it at all on the site.

Still looks terrible, but slightly less so. Smoother, but also fuzzy.

I am thinking that if Salty used the actual BB Code link from the share icon on Flickr then it will be fine. Just copy and paste the entire link into the post on here. Don't use the image tags on this site.

This is what I and several others who use Flickr also do, our pictures as far as I can tell look the same as on Flickr itself.

This portrait workshop I'm involved in, you study a photographers work then make an image inspired by them

This is my Karsh inspired image. light on the paper, a light camera right behind him on the hair and shoulder, a light camera right with a 15 degree grid on his face, a light with a bare strip box camera left behind him.


and this is a Skrebneski inspired image. a beauty dish over her, butterfly lighting style. I think there was also a strip light just to her right, at a really low power. I think I left it on though not really aimed or intentionally used. Skrebneski would say that nobody ever told him to hold still, so he made a lot of images with motion blur. I liked that, and the primary image I made was about migraines and pain and my wife, but this and the one I'll post tomorrow were just variations and playing around.
