If you’d told me a year ago that I’d be adding earplugs to my photography and drone gear, I probably would’ve laughed. But here we are. Loop earplugs have become an essential tool—not just for my creative work but for my overall well-being. I never expected

Rescuing Low-Res Drone Images: A Topaz Photo AI Experiment
