The first photo looks so good. Can you share more what settings did you use to shoot the photo, and how you edited it? Much thanks!

Thank you. I shot it in Ultra Wide mode using RAW - EXIF data is ISO50, 14mm, 0EV, f2.2 and 1/1709s.

I duplicated the photo in Lightroom so I could under and over expose the picture (-4,-2,0,+2,+4) and then used the HDR Merge tool. Once it populated I just randomly scrolled through some filters on there until I came across that one.

Which of the image formats are you all using in camera settings? I’ve seen conflicting views on whether to use high efficiency vs most compatible 👍🏻

Are you seeing any difference in image quality? Not sure which one is best for that. I’ve been using high efficiency format and happy with the results I’ll try most compatible and see how that is.

In the right situations I've found the detail tends to be better when pinching to zoom or looking at it on a larger screen - I guess you could take some sample shots with Most Compatible/High Efficiency and see what you (personally) prefer?
