I just watched the Great Create and you both made some beautiful images. One kind of depressing sign of the times I spotted was when the host was describing the challenge of creating a black and white photo out of something normally captured in color, the closed captioning changed the word “color” to “COVID”. I guess the machines don’t want us to get over the pandemic. I blame Skynet.

Knew it, then forgot it, now I know it again!
It’s a tiny annoying thing to remember. Thanks for the article!

Hi Scott,
instagram requires to use mobile since adobe removed the plugin from LR classic. LR instagram plugin developers have difficulties to follow adove updates so erratic. It is possible to setup browser in mobile mode to upload srgb jpeg exports images but tedious.
My first method was to export in srgb 1080px a jpeg on my hard disk i add to the catalog and drag in a collection shared with my mobile and upload to instagram from this collection. time consuming !
people advised me to just drag the thumbnail of my image (raw) in this collection, which will send the small size DNG preview and from mobile upload this preview to instagram. It works but i really wonder which color space is used in the upload. can you tell me ?
Another question is i am using vfpreset profiles and when iwant to look the dng preview, lr mobile doesn’t recognize the profile. I have heard we can send profiles to mobile. how ?
