@T4920 when I take shots in particular with dark denim and bad interior light (like my last ones) I increase brightness a little, and add a tiny HDR effect, such that black jeans show a little texture/structure and are not just black blobs... Nothing like cranking it up to max to pretend mad fades that are not real though

Caught a cold, full sweatmode home office today.

@T4920 don't take this the wrong way, but I'd rather see some denim pics than you au naturelle

[T4920]

@Tago-Mago Hey! My half naked Mad Red pictures went down a treat here!

[T4920]

@Tobi That was why I tried to adjust it a little today, wanted my OD jeans not to look completely black, but they are notoriously difficult to photograph...

[Tago Mago]

@T4920 so bare-chested leather jacket in Gosport in September for you, is it?

[T4920]

@Tago-Mago
Yeah, somebody has to one-up @kasi and his bare-chested lefty antics

@T4920 LOL thats pretty extreme. I'm guilty of it but i usually call it out and i've shown multiple versions like that. sometimes what they eye sees in person is between my normal mode and my "studio mode", but i generally leave it unedited unless it's a dark shot and i need to add more light. It's especially hard to photograph dark denim that's been unwashed for months and has a sheen to it. Often the shine presents as weird fades. My 16oz SBG and 21ib are super 'shiny' right now.

Looks like OD acid wash hahaha

[T4920]

@WhiskeySandwich shirt isn't OD, jeans are.. and they're still almost indistinguishable from the unedited photo haha..

Only 7 wears though, I'll fuck 'em up in due course :the_horns:

@T4920 @Tobi I think sometimes the eyes see things the camera doesn’t and vice versa. A bit of adjustment to avoid black blobs and approximate to what you see is fine by me.

Also I didn’t expect the conversion to take the turn it did (but maybe I should’ve known better). September is going to be wild

@jerkules spot on, haven't seen one of those jackets in the wild for a while

[jischwar]

@Twistlock What's the verdict on sizing the sweats? I'm a 33 in the 888 cut and wondering if I should take a medium or large

[tody]

@AdamJ You should pay more attention to my posts I regularly wear my blue iteration, and I think @Twistlock owns one, too.

Layered up! Hidden 1501 under a hidden IHSH-298 under a IH526J OD under a mackinaw cruiser. IH-731 and viberg 2040s

[Twistlock]

@jischwar, i wear 36 in most denims, 35 in 888 S-21, main measurement for me in these is thigh, which is why i took XL for comfort.

[jischwar]

@Twistlock that's helpful for sure. Think I need to go Large then.
