- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hello, everyone, i'm new to the forums, and also new to photography, But I'm programmer at heart.
Mostly a game design programmer, and well I wrote an interesting piece of code inside of Unity3d, and it was for one of my games, but then i thought what if i could use it for photography?
So basically I wrote some code that uses Trillinear Image Filtering, anisotropic filtering, mip maps, and linear color, to load image data into a rendertexture. (a very high quality texture used in unity 3d that computes using a GPU) then scale the whole thing to 100 mega pixels, from its original image of 1080p. the resulting image, atleast to my own eyes has the same details as the original. but heres the kicker, the new image can zoom in further and get closer to the details, then its original can, when displayed in windows photo app. I would like to get some opinions. is it adding detail even if that detail is blurry? or how does it work i wonder? i'm looking for a photographer to tell me.
in the below photo, the left image is the 100 mega pixel version, zoomed in halfway to the same point that the original image of 30mp is zoomed in fully to. i realize my program affects lighting and color. its still in the works.
i would've uploaded the full image instead of only a preview
but, after upscaling the image file size jumped from 6mb to 97mb.
thanks for any opinions given, in advance!
