Urbex and HDR appeal to the masses. There's nothing wrong with that, but photographers look at photos on the reg as a hobby. You start building taste and an appreciation for composition and subtleties. I can't smell, so a lot of flavours and seasonings are completely lost on me, and a lot of things taste super good to me that are bland for everyone else. For me it owns, because "boring" food tastes the same as really good food so I always enjoy my meal. I thought about this stuff a while ago and came to the conclusion that people liking hdr or people (me included) liking pop music is exactly the same as me liking all food, except you can develop appreciation for an art. You can't grow a new nose.

Yeah good hdr is good, the hdr that sticks out like a sore thumb, optionally going ham on the presence sliders is what I meant.

I really hate seeing steel wool in urbex photos. Loads of great old buildings in Brisbane get burned down by people doing it, so all the really awesome stuff has tight security or gets demolished pretty quickly.

Its cool but its done to death in Australian urbex and it causes fires. Literally everything cool and old has very strict security because people burn them down on the reg. Your only option in Brisbane are the stormwater drains that flood at high tide, the less guarded stuff has all been knocked down.

E: like do steel wool shots, but dont do them in buildings made of timber, built before fire regulations.
