Hello everyone, how are you? I hope you are all well.
This is my first post about photography, I am also a beginner in this field. There are still many important things that I have to run, I just want to share about my opinion about a photo, starting from the appearance of the photo and the meaning of a photo that I understand. I am one of those people who like black and dark colors. Usually I wear black clothes, black pants, black shoes and sandals, black watches, black backpacks, basically I like black and dark colors. It's true that not all of my clothes and pants at home are black and dark, but I have a lot of black clothes.
It's not just about clothes, when I open YouTube, Instagram, Whatsapp, Twitter, and other applications, I always use the black color on the screen or the dark mode provided, it makes the eyes more comfortable and doesn't hurt the eyes.
I'm also learning the right way to turn all the photos I take darker, I've taken photos of forests, seas, rivers and roadside photos. Then everything is edited and adjusted to make it a slightly darker photo, I continue to study and look for ways to adjust contrast, saturation, and others to get a dark color and have the characteristics of each object taken.
Take a look and see, what do you think about some of the photos that have been taken and then edited. May I know what you think?

What do you think? Do you agree with what I said? Does a slightly dark color make the eyes calmer and able to enjoy a photographic work even though we are still beginners in the field of photographers?
For me, a photographic work that is edited a little dark will give a very aesthetic impression, although I can't take good pictures like those who are experienced, but the picture is a simple picture that is neat and good, not complicated, I don't understand combining 2 colors to 3 colors that are united so that it becomes a beautiful work. But as a beginner, this did not discourage me.
And now, do you have any suggestions and input so that I can learn and get better results when I want to produce a dark themed image?
I would be very grateful if you guys would teach me so that I can take better pictures and edit them, and when I get a good grip on photography, I will share my experiences and updates on my latest experiences on the Hive Blog.
