My mom took this picture on our mother's day drive through the mountains. She's a photographer and doesn't get to make the drive herself anymore.

There's technically a car or two in it so I thought I'd share.

Are there some compression issues going on or is this an AI pic?

Weird stuff going on when you zoom in on the "trees"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

That's some weird automatic sharpening. Use the digital zoom on your phone and and take a picture of trees or hay or whatever. Then you'll have the same artifacts. I wish there was a way to turn it off.

Exactly what she did!

Given the color fringes on the flag I'd say it's safe to assume those are JPEG artifacts.

Bingo!

My mom uses digital zoom all the time. I've tried to get her to use just the two optical zoom settings but she doesn't. She's an anarchist at heart!

Definitely a relevant pic

What’s the car you driving?

2014 Z51 Corvette

Darn. I guessed Ferrari. Guess I need to learn about non C8 corvettes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

I did not know the front engined Corvettes had vents on the rear quarter panel, threw me off. I was thinking Ferrari as well.

I think it looks pretty cool on the C7. For the Z51 and better one leads to a radiator for the oil cooler and the other leads to a radiator for the transmission cooler.

Definitely inspired by a certain Italian car company.

Some of em are pretty great. I'm biased, I like them all. Even the C4.
