A guy in my comments called my thumbnails 'lying without saying a word,' and he was right
He pointed out that my before/after shot used two different lighting setups, so the 'after' looked way better than it really was. Ngl I went back and re-shot it in the same room with the same lamp, and the result was way less dramatic but at least it was honest. Where do you all draw the line between a fair comparison and a straight up trick?
