i use photos I took as my iOS wallpapers. this is a photo from Madeira, Portugal (autonomous economic region)
i take all photos on an iPhone (cause it’s the camera that’s with me all the time)
this is on iPhone 17 pro - second photo is post-processed (white balance), and edited (photomator I think), third photo is original (I don’t shoot RAW anymore but I used to)
wallpaper is Live Photo that’s why the wave is a bit different
Pretty accurate description of how I feel as well.
