This week’s episode of The Grid took a slightly different turn, with Scott Kelby hosting solo while Erik Kuna was away shooting the night sky at a photography conference.

Scott dove right into a full round of blind photo critiques, reviewing a diverse mix of viewer images, including wildlife, landscapes, sports, architecture, portraits, and night photography.

Throughout the episode, he shared straightforward feedback on what was working—and what wasn’t—covering key areas like white balance, composition, lighting, distracting elements, and editing choices. Using Lightroom, Camera Raw, and Photoshop, he demonstrated how small adjustments can make a big difference.

In between critiques, Scott also previewed his upcoming Florence workshop, talked about a new continuous lighting class, and shared news about his appearance at the Big Thinkers Conference.

It’s a fast-paced, honest, and often funny episode filled with real-world insights you can take into your next shoot or edit.
