Looking at my pictures on the computer they always look fine. However, once uploaded they look soft, out of focus and a bit shit, to be honest. I don't believe this to be the fault of my cameras, lenses or the computer and editing software but the way I am editing the photos. Firstly, I believe that the saved images are too large, as I usually save them at 3000px on the longest side when it should be 1024px; secondly I think the saving function I use might not be the best way. This means that, once uploaded onto the net, the website or social media app then compresses them even more, leading to soft images.
I am going to redo some recent photos and optimise them for web viewing - after all, most people use phones or iPads and these have much smaller displays than a decent computer monitor.
