There was another thread in the iPhone section where people were posting photos saying it was taken with an iPhone..but when you looked at the metadata they were from other phones. Then others claimed they never edited their photos but the metadata shows they did. I think that is where some of this is coming from.....

This thread isn't a contest though, I get that people don't like being duped but there's no reason why you couldn't upload an edited photo here anyway, it's just about photos.
You'll get an upvote from me regardless :)

Oh, I see, that's a bit sad! I suppose you can always use Preview to remove location information and preserve the rest, or as I just noticed , when it's edited that also strips position info.

Just catching up on the thread since I was accused of editing my photos 😂🙄. Appreciate all the replies. I still don’t know what metadata is or how to remove it haha but at least the dude has been called out on it after consistently accusing me.

I love seeing what all the phones are capable of in this thread. Edited or not. 😁

I do prefer the lightly edited version of the photos.

I think the spirit of this thread isn't straight from camera shots necessarily. Even with my Mirror less cameras, I rarely use a photo without a few minor tweaks in lightroom.

No I don’t think it is either. I’ve edited photos before when I’ve posted. In snap seed or whatever. I just like seeing what people can do with smartphone photography as there have been some really great snaps in here over the years.

For me personally I don't care if anyone edits their snaps or not. I just like seeing all the different photos.
I am just a point and shoot guy...If I edit something I will say I edited it so people know the shot just did happen on its own I helped it look the way it does :)
Where are the doggos?

Agree! The doggos were at Formby beach here in the cold UK! It was actually a really nice day. Very windy but the dogs absolutely loved it. 🥰
