Is there a phone that takes natural-looking night photos? I can't stand photos that are overexposed all over.

Which phone takes natural-looking yet flattering selfies? Is OPPO or vivo better?

Can you recommend a smartphone that takes photos that look both natural and beautiful? I'm tired of photos that look so fake. What do you think of the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max?

In The Round Practice
Hey everyone. Recently some Pep Ventosa work came across my social media and it inspired me to get out and try his in the round technique again. I've tried it before without a ton of success.

Exploring a different angle.....
I posted recently about how using the Bluristic app angle mode could simulate the action used in the Pep Ventosa 'in the round' technique.

I am not an architectural photographer but one of my son's sells real estate so I see a few samples. This is why you do what you do Ian. Very good work.I remember reading about a famous architectural photographer once(don't remember his name but I think he was an American) who always had people in his shots. I wonder why no one seems to do that now. Just a thought. Maybe others have an opinion on this.
Good solid images.
My main points would be in photo #1 crop out a bit more of the ceiling and up from bottom . Leave in most of the chair but come up to suggest it but not let the seat draw the eye.
In both #1 and #2 I would allow more ambient light to soften the dark shadows.
In all of them I would open up the rooms with a little more ambient.
I would also use a H&S brush to desaturate the blue cast or add a bit of warmth to the walls.
As for people in interior phots , that is NOT for real estate photos but for architectural images that show how the space is used.
good feedback, thanks for taking the time Indy
Solid work!
Personally I try to not have objects in the frame that are cut off halfway. For example, #1 the table on the left and the chair. #2 The vase in front and the top of the window frame. #3 the object on the kitchen top and on the left the side table thingy. On the last picture the bed looks a bit messy and there's a shadow on the left point that makes it look like the sheet is a bit dirty.
Nice lighting and good representation of the place!
