I love the way Alfheim looks in daylight as well, but I've always preferred night skies.
Also, are you playing through the whole game with just the basic gear...? I only just noticed that your shots of Kratos and Atreus have them in them.

Started using the borders a lot less after seeing more and more of the posts in this thread... I'm liking how my shots are turning out so far.

Yes, purely for aesthetic reasons. :) The default gear is the most polished and looks the best in photos. Some of the bulkier armor can look pretty bad wit lotsa clipping issues.
Whew. Gotta appreciate your dedication, man! I like most of the outfits enough, thankfully, but I made sure to at least get Atreus his melee outfit instead of the ranged one since it's my favorite one, visually.

Atreus: "Sindri, so how come Brok is blue and you're not?"
Kratos: "Boy!"
Also loved Sindri's long rant after that, lol.

Game was authored with K in his starting outfit. The armour came later, and caused no end of problems with clipping and framing. Those pauldrons on the traveller set obscure K's facial animations in several narrative sequences. I switched to the starting clothes for several photos for aesthetics, and would then get pwned if I forgot to change back, as I drop from level 8 to level 2.
Reading your post made me think there was a literal letter K in his outfit.

Ugh. The Witch's Cave is easily one of my favorite locations in the game because of how stunning it always looks. This particular area, especially.

Love these.
Guys, why does the game opt to use such extensive depth of field in the background when on Lake of 9 area? In the beginning I thought it was for performance issues, but then I noticed that depth of field effect is completely removed when you are in the boat and everything looks perfectly sharp and beautiful.
Also when using photomode you can remove the effect and I dont notice any hit in performance (granted this is not accurate test but it is an indication).
Generally I dont like that the game uses so much depth of field in the background. It really doesnt feel realistic and I am sure the game could handle the removal of it on PS4 Pro.
I would love it if there was an option to remove it, but I would like to hear if there is a technical reason behind it

It's probably an artistic choice. I can't say I am bothered by it, but I can see why some dislike the effect.
DOF is also a pretty demanding effect, so they must've thought it'll do the game's look good and that it's worth it.

That was exactly my impression too, that this effect costs resources. But I dont get why the effect is removed when traveling by boat. The game is so beautiful in the distance and most of that gets lost due to the DOF effect.
I really would love it if there was an additional option in the game to remove the effect. just you have for motion blur etc.
Thanks! Was really happy with how these turned out, especially the air guitar one. That was a lot of luck too.

Kratos all smug about the historical success of his latest game. Tsk.
Yes, yes, Kratos. We all love the feeling of recalling the Leviathan.
Seriously, though, these faces are a ton of fun sometimes.

Loved that place, the art was stellar !! I took so many shots before the photomode patch happened.
