Bloom, cringe or based?
I like doing flower macro photography wide open, and it gets this dreamy feel because of the heavy blur. I think bloom can enhance this, in the right circumstances.
Do you like it? Did Skyrim ruin it?

dreamy

Also if you like it why are you asking for opinions? Are you retarded?

Too much

Just right

based when used right. Unless you're trying to make a documentary, I always err on the side of experimentation over fidelity.

extremely cringe, all it does it makes your photos look like 90's catholic motivational images

seems pretty important. a picture of a closed bud just doesn't have the same flair
>>
>>4300119
no, your photo is shit and you are a retard basically

stop sharpening your images and overbaking them
then you won't be tempted to coat them in a hideous blur filter to soften shit up

>>4305334
It is NOT a good look.

>>4305335
kek
but seriously
the only good way to have such a blur not look like shit is to use PHYSICAL FILTERS
blurring in post is always garbage and is why "bokeh" on phones in gay portrait modes is a scam and always looks bad
>>
I'll only use bloom if it were a natural trait if a certain lens or with a filter, as I have yet to see a digital bloom method that looks right.
