2.97 - "Solid" 

I took this image of the Eye of the Sahara from 500km above in space on April 28, 2023. As that is part of my job at Kongsberg NanoAvionics where we build satellites, it belongs to the company. So don't treat it as an entry for the prize, I just thought it would be fun to see you and Elia critique it. ;)

Forgot to mention the settings.

Shot at 3 mm focal length on a famous action camera whose brand I will not mention:
F/2.8
1/750s
ISO 100

Basic Camera Raw corrections:
-1.5 Exposure
+10 Contrast
-75 Highlights
+90 Shadows
0 Whites
-40 Blacks

+15 Texture
+15 Clarity

+10 Vibrance
+10 Saturation

A bit of dehaze on the Eye of the Sahara.

The satellite is basically 50x50x50cm or 20x20x20" in size.

very cool! :)

Thanks!

Super interesting

Glad to hear! We even have a 4K video of the selfie stick deployment, if you're curious:
