It was a challenging shot, as the entire area was dark and crowded, with everyone vying for the perfect shot of the iconic Hongyadong enclave in Chongqing.
That’s a really great image! The lighting is Well balanced.
 

Hadn’t realised Sony had such a feature - assuming the samples haven’t been edited in post production they look fairly respectable!
Before I bought my first iPhone (7 Plus), I had, for a long time, devices from the Xperia line. I had the Xperia ARC, S, Z, Z2 and Z5. I've always liked the brand very much. But when I took my brother's iPhone 7 Plus in my hands and tested Portrait Mode, it was passion at first sight. I sold my Xperia Z5 and bought a 7 Plus. From there, I entered Apple headlong. In fact, Sony still manufactures good devices, but they are more expensive than they should be and do not deliver the amount charged. Besides, his market, for resale, is terrible.

But this telephoto lens with macro is exceptional!

Playing with Lightroom & my Neewer 60mm / 2x LS-41 pro lens on BeastCage. The others were taken using photographic styles stark B&W tone: -50, color +20. Stark B&W has to be my favorite style to use.

The 60mm gives the iPhone 1x camera an equivalent of 48mm~50mm as seen on a 35mm camera. A much better & normal focal length while maintaining the 48mp sensor resolution.

Thanks. If you’re talking about putting one part of this photo in black-and-white and the leaf in color, this is basically the way I did it. Using the mask tool, and it did highlight the leaf and I selected inverse which reverses the selection to the rest of the photo and desaturated the image to where it was black and white. I then adjusted it how I wanted. Then I adjusted color/Dehaze tool to increase or decrease the contrast of the image. So it’s fairly simple. Just open Lightroom, click on the mask tool which is the gray circle at the bottom if you’re using it on a mobile device and select subject and do the inverse which is shown by the white arrow in the screenshot that I took, and it will reverse the selection, leaving the original subject and color while everything else is highlighted in red, and whenever you slide the saturation tool down to the left to take all the color away. It goes to black-and-white or however, you want it to look. in the screenshot that I took everything that is highlighted in red will be affected with adjustments. I don’t have a video tutorial on how to do this as of yet, but it’s just that simple masking tool that is used for the conversion. I’m at work right now so if you need more assistance, just reply to this post and I will help further when I get home
