The findings reveal that landscape pictures on Instagram echo Romantic era paintings, using similar motifs and aesthetic strategies. Instagrammers, like 19th-century Romantic painters, emphasize themes of solitude, mystification, sublimity, and nostalgia, contrasting sharply with contemporary issues like ecological crises. By staging and aesthetically transforming nature, Instagrammers medially reverse the destruction of nature and create idealized landscapes that evoke a bygone, pre-industrial era and an intact human-nature relationship. Accordingly, landscape images on Instagram can be interpreted as a new idealized, romantic reality or as a postmodern reinvention of Romanticism. Instagrammers seek out photo locations based on their ability to synthesize as many physical elements as possible into an ‘instagrammable’ scenery, creating a stereotypical romantic landscape image.
Alright, /p/. I got my first nice camera JUST IN TIME for a 2-week vacation where I shot over 14,000 photos in various levels of motion, light, and subject type. Throughout my trip I experimented a lot and really started to internalize the exposure triangle to the point where I'm perfectly comfortable shooting manual without any confusion or issues.
At this point, I feel like I've learned enough that I just need to practice practice practice, but I have almost zero experience with post-processing photos. I have over a decade of casual experience with Adobe programs, so I'm at least familiar with image stuff, but it was mostly UX design and motion graphics. I'm a bit colorblind, so I fear I'll never be able to do any decent color grading, but I'd really like to start dipping my toes into post-processing photos so I can start shooting in super low light, and generally just touching up my favorite shots.
What tips do you have for a beginner here? What software, workflow, techniques, etc. do you use, and what things should you always do, or avoid doing in post?

Do you submit to magazines or prizes? I know the meme is that you can only hope to leave just one or two worthwhile photos after you die. But what’s wrong with trying to build a career?

Where can I learn about optics and optical science? I want to know more about cameras to the point I could know everything about a camera’s settings without looking at metadata. I want to know if I can work out a camera’s settings or lens just by looking at a photograph and analysing it. For instance, can you work out the shutter speed or aperture through deduction if you already know the ISO or focal length or distance to subject or depth of field? My question is about the exposure triangle and knowing whether one element in a camera’s setting can give you clues to the other elements. Surely there have been forensics used on this level, in some sort of criminal case. Or do they usually only look for manufacturing clues for the camera’s build and make?
