A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I think I get the idea behind it but these are not really coming off as interesting. The aesthetic is interesting, but doesn’t make up for poor composition and uninteresting subjects.
Not sure what you’re shooting with, but if it’s a camera and you’re shooting at night you can raise the ISO and increase the shutter speed to both get the graininess and keep it dark, I would rely on aperture to get the DoF you want rather than using it to keep the photo dark.
Alternately, if you overexposed the picture with high ISO and lower shutter speed you could adjust the exposure in editing to get it darker and lower the contrast to wash it out.
If you’re shooting with a phone then I guess just use a filter.
When shooting aesthetic you still need to focus on composition and subject matter.
