Still working on my new computer.

Yeah...Until you get "back" your proper editing tools on your laptop and zero-in proper white balance settings your photos are going to continue to look "smokey". Keep pluggin' away Bro.

put a white envelope (print down if used) just in the corner of the frame and try again.

If you've figured out cropping, you can put it in the frame for the shoot and crop it out before "going to print."

Trying another one with killer stag

I used to use a Nikon D810 SLR for knife photos. It made great pics. Too good for the resolution on the internet. Overkill! People are using phones and tablets to view, not 60" HD TV's.

I now use my iPhone 10. It takes really good pictures. The exposure and white balance are automatic. You can edit, crop and correct right on the phone. It is also super easy to use them in emails and on social media like Facebook and Instagram.

I use wireless transfer to drop them into a folder on my Macbook Pro for long term storage.

It's great technoligy.

OK Bro,
Here's a "lil'-bit betta'" view.
Stay sharp, Capt. Chris

Cap that is awesome..Tune I have IPhone 10 also and a new computer.The problem is me and not them.

do you have Photoshop Elements on your computer? It can make it pretty easy to modify lighting, white balance, size, etc.

I do not.My old computer is a Dell and the new is a HP.Big learning for me.

Trying another one.I think I'm making progress!!!
