I find they look a lot better if using Flickr rather than the forum hosting the photo

If so, you need to keep the front element warm. In astrophotography it's common to use heat tape or chemical hand warmers secured to the lens.

It gives a milky appearance to landscape shots. Sometimes a circular polarizer can help. Sometimes the dehaze tool in Lightroom CC helps. I've seen people work wonders in LR and Photoshop, but those techniques are beyond my skill level. Image editing ok; C&C always welcome.

I notice a dramatic difference between what appears on the forum v. how the same image appears on Flickr. I thoroughly enjoy this forum and I am extremely grateful for it, but anytime I see an image that I like and there is a Flickr link, I'll check it out on Flickr and see a substantial image quality improvement. I hope that this is not "off topic", but I wonder if anyone out there can explain the phenomenon, or if there is a work-around. (I have been wondering for a long time) I was wondering if it was because i am a mac owner and the colour space was different. Vaginator9000

It gives a milky appearance to landscape shots. It's usually worse closer to the ground, so raising your viewpoint (even by a few feet) can help because you end up shooting through less of it.

I have a hosting account on GoDaddy. I put my photos there, and then use "img" tags to show them here. I don't see any difference between what I see here and what I see natively on my computer. I do not upload photos to the forum's image gallery. I don't know if that would matter. Image editing ok; C&C always welcome.

That picture style is very powerful, but a small modification of the image in that direction doesn't look that much as on overdose. It gives you an idea of what can be done in post processing, though. Anders

Taken with 1DX Mk II and a EF300mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens, on Flickr it looks sharp to me. In the forum, not so much. (The Single Focus Point used was on its eye) I admit that I like sharp images. There, I said it. The image was simply made by using Canon's DPP and making a jpeg from a RAW file. (I am not that "into" processing so that is all I can immediately offer) I also wonder if other owners feel the colors are the same. To my eye they are, but sometimes I struggle with this. If it matters, I also use a Mac computer and Mac display. If this post is off-topic I apologize, but this is a valuable camera body and it would be great to be able to see what they are producing for results. Lastly, I have noticed this effect with images from other owners, that on Flickr, images appear sharper than in a thread. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I like sharp images, too.

LJ3Jim Senior Member ![]() More info       | Jun 20, 2017 11:06 | #3855 Here's a test. The first image below was uploaded to the forum as a full-size jpg (5026x3351). The forum software downsized it to fit in a 1280x1280 box. The second image was reduced to 1280 by Lightroom and then uploaded to the forum. I assume that the forum did not change it. The third image is the 1280 image as created by Lightroom, but it's hosted on GoDaddy. I think the first image is slightly softer than the other two. I don't see any difference between the last two. Your thoughts? Image editing ok; C&C always welcome.
