RE: Indoor Garden Update - Cannabis Macro Photography

Love that first shot where the tendrils of the plant are snaking out like something out of Aliens. What are you using to get those shots? (hardware and software-wise). I'd thought maybe you were out west somewhere, where the attitudes on weed are more shall we say, enlightened. Then I saw that you're in NY, as it sems like PA hasn't yet caught up with the times. :)

Thank you @evernoticethat!
It's surprising PA hasn't caught up with the times.
I'm hoping we'll see it become legal worldwide in our lifetime.

The phone is a Moto G 5G 2022.
I use Windows 11 built in photo editor. It has everything I need for basic touchups. When I use filters, 15% is usually the maximum amount, then I just improve the lighting and clarity and add vignette on some of them. In this post I think I went as high as 50% on a couple of them.

The goal most of the time is to maintain the original integrity of the photos, especially the colors, while maximizing the overall aesthetic visual appeal.

Sometimes I get stoned and go crazy on the edits, then my normal standards go out the window :D
