About this episode

Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna review viewer-submitted images in a blind photo critique format, offering feedback on various photography aspects.

It’s another “Blind Photo Critique” episode of The Grid, with Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna reviewing a wide range of viewer-submitted images—from fantasy-style portraits and astrophotography blends to concert shots, wildlife, sailing events, and car photography. Along the way, they share honest feedback on composition, white balance, timing, lighting, and post-processing, including Photoshop generative tools for cleaning up distractions. The “Sell Your Gear” buzzer makes an appearance (briefly), and Scott wraps things up with a spoiler-filled rundown of plot holes from the new Mandalorian & Grogu movie. Fun, opinionated, and packed with useful takeaways throughout. This Week's Sponsors: ON1 | Platypod | KelbyOne
