Neat stuff!
I am planning on selling some photo gear that I no longer use. This includes tripods, a few long lenses, and assorted filters and such.
Many items will simply be given away to others or donated to charities such as Goodwill. All the stuff while used is in good very good shape.
But, there are a few lenses and some very nice tripods that I would like to sell and use the cash to purchase a smaller lighter camera. And to also buy more ink and quality paper for my printers. Any suggestions on how to sell such gear locally would be appreciated. Has anybody used a good service or neighborhood type group to sell photo gear? Any luck?
I long used an old copy of Photoshop because I liked their shadows/highlights feature. I used Gimp which is very good and open source, but it was always a bit of a PITA. I got Affinity, which a lot of people rave about, and found that to be another form of PITA.Hi folks,
Not sure if this is the right thread for questions but I wanted to take a chance...
What post-processing application(s) do you all use? Photoshop, being subscription-based can get expensive to the point where it becomes its own line item in the annual budget, but if it's worth it I guess paying for the best becomes its own value added?
Any recommendations or ideas? Thanks!

With Halloween coming up, I decided the Ghost Nebula would be my next deep space object. This is a faint star forming reflection nebula, 1470 light years away in the constellation Cepheus. A PITA to process.
Thanks, I will keep them coming. But there are actually a lot of people doing this these days. The equipment to track the objects and capture long exposures is in reach for hobbyists. And the software to stack and process the images is powerful, if a bit complicated. There are Facebook groups with thousands of members dedicated to aspects of this pursuit.Man, those are interesting captures!! Thanks for sharing those rare type photos..

So the one thing that Adobe is going to be pushing a lot is AI tools for PhotoShop.
Earlier this year, they released AI de-noise for LightRoom, which is pretty effective.
Now they're pushing AI masking, which I haven't tried yet.
But I think the things they will really hype are the AI-driven content features, like content fill or removing things, do it in a more automated way.

I had a clear view of the harvest moon last evening and didn't take a picture..Once again clouds during a super moon. I just can’t win..
