I hate the "post hot girl to draw attention" thing that social media algorithms and human nature force, but I kinda love the analogs to this, where certain niches have their own "hot girls," Like GG1s, common kingfishers, and TR-808s

@skinnylatte Just in my teaching experience, money is a huge barrier for people. I have tried to include film dev and shooting in my teaching as an adjunct - I have the gear, I can walk people through it. If that bug bites them, the dive in. But its an expensive bug, and so much of photography is work. It's repetition, discovering new things that are your new idea to discover that someone wrote...

@skinnylatte i think that the oldest double wheel digital Nikon you can afford with a normal wide aperture lens is the best choice for a beginner. Sure, this delays learning about how film choices and dev processes affect modern photography today, but just put a full manual camera in their hand and let them shoot 100,000 photos without having to pay for chemicals. that part can can be pushed further down the rabbit hole

Oh no the birds have chem trails now

#BomDia. The spider lilies are blooming too, but the #cosmos are where it's at. I have taken some spider lily photos this year, but they just don't do it for me. #BloomScrolling #photography

#BomDia. The cosmos are starting.

#fireworks happen every Saturday at #Odaiba in the winter. I'd like to know who pays for them exactly, because I bet its a combo of the boat restaurants and the other stores in Odaiba who all have money to gain from people coming to the area. #Photography #LandscapePhotography

#BomDia. It doesn't matter what the scale of your waterfall is if you take the photo right, and as crap as the world feels right now, we can work to solve the problems together, and the scale won't matter. #Photography #LandscapePhotography #Mosstodon #waterfall

#ConeFlower are a #prairie #kigo, not a standard Japanese one. But they're your phone wallpaper for this bit of the #summer.

As always, because Android auto crops, the ones with the hanko more in the corner are for iphone, and the ones with it placed more inward are for android.

This #firefly photo was just after sunset, which made the sky really bright in contrast with the very dark foreground.

Close up on a #moth that had the misfortune to land on my door. After his close up, I let him go again back out into the wild. #Strobist #photography

I have a soft spot for these flowers because of a photo I took many years ago
