Is street inherently dishonest?

I was looking for a safe website, like Fitgirl.
But for borrowing the license of a few softwares, aka Lightroom.
In return, I offer this picture of a blue flower.

Anyone else eventually reach the same end?

Probably doesnt need a thread but I've struggled with photo editing forever and this helped a lot recently.

Download a linear profile for your camera, and when loaded into LR, select it and boost exposure by 0.7, and now you're in a much cleaner slate for editing, and are seeing something extremely close to what the camera saw when it took the picture. Also the sliders dont fuck with each other nearly as much.

Its weird how much the Adobe profiles can absolutely nuke the dynamic range and colors on certain pictures, or why this would be "standard" on professional grade software.

Post all your insecure Sony rants and hot Fuji takes in here.

I've seen this Marc Levoy series recommended a lot but it's boring and he seems full of shit.

What could I do better?

Gideon Mendel (born 31 August 1959) is a South African photographer, based in London. His work engages with contemporary social issues of global concern. It was his work as a 'struggle photographer' during the final years of apartheid in the 1980s that first brought attention to his work.
