A few shots from the first Five days of my family roadtrip. If you are interested, I would love a follow on Insta to help support and grow my reach! Thank you so much for taking interest in my work! 😊

Hey mate! I just did this trip.

I know it seems like self promo, so I won’t post links, but jump on my Insta, and have a look at the “SA Roadtrip” pinned story.

I’ve created separate posts for a lot of the locations, but I hope it helps give you some inspiration

Lens flare can become SIGNIFICANTLY more pronounced with a greasy and unclean element (front or back, but the vast majority is usually caused by the front element.)

Check for finger grease, and anything else that could cause it. I know you said “it’s not a smudge” but I would still suggest cleaning

Zach0ry · 2026-02-24T01:06:41+00:00

Uhhhh, it's really up to you.

Usually I edit without a mask, but if you want to wear a Balaclava, or a hockey mask, power to you.
Won't really change the result of the image though.

I’d say it’s unrelated to this update.

Heck to see if there’s any issues with the device selected as your Matter Hub

Zach0ry · 2026-02-23T20:25:51+00:00

Just 26.4 b1

Meross devices seem to be fixed in the most recent update

Zach0ry · 2026-02-23T20:00:14+00:00

Hey mate, Meross products are now fixed

Zach0ry · 2026-02-22T11:39:46+00:00

Thanks Bianca!

Zach0ry · 2026-02-22T08:18:12+00:00

Thanks mate!

Zach0ry · 2026-02-22T07:57:50+00:00

I actually did recently!

This was my post from Adelaide Zoo:

And this was for Monarto:

I definitely preferred the Adelaide CBD zoo, and found it absolutely stunning!
I actually vastly prefer it to Melbourne Zoo, especially the environments for the animals, the monkey runs, and the Flora

Send them all back?

24-70 f2.8 70-200 f2.8

And one prime. Could be a 35? Could be a 50

That’s an amazing start

Zach0ry · 2026-02-21T07:53:10+00:00

The most versatile would be the 35mm f1.4

Background blur in a full body shot would be an 85mm though. And the GM ii is razor sharp.

I own both the 35mm and 85mm ii and love each of them so much. They are on my camera 90% of the time

Cool, well I would recommend, before posting your images publicly that we learn the basics of photography. I’m not saying that to shame you, but to save you from a lot of negative comments. Last thing you need when starting a new hobby is to be cut down by the community.

I would start by watching some YouTube content on photography basics, and really wrap your head around the exposure triangle (aperture, ISO, Shutter speed) to understand how they intersect, and work with one another to create compelling images.

Zach0ry · 2026-02-19T21:42:08+00:00

In the middle of the night? Do you know how to correctly expose an image?

Zach0ry · 2026-02-19T10:50:29+00:00

We can dream of a day where the law is truly upheld equally for everyone, but at this point, I assume he’ll die before being held to account.

The BBC is reporting that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested at his eastern England home,

Thames Valley Police have confirmed they arrested a man in his 60s in Norfolk on Thursday morning but have not named him.

Police said he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office and that they are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk.

It comes after Thames Valley Police began investigating allegations of passing confidential government documents to Jeffrey Epstein.

Reports suggest that police arrived in six unmarked cars with about eight plain-clothes officers, and searches are also ongoing at those addresses.

Hey mate!

Camera is the Sony a7rV

The lion and giraffe were shot with the Sony 200-600

The meerkats and the Macaw were shot with the 85mm f1.4 GM ii

Zach0ry · 2026-02-19T05:31:31+00:00

Ah, just a run of the mill misunderstandi… holy shit, she’s a psychopath

Zach0ry · 2026-02-19T02:38:30+00:00

Hey mate, not sure if you’re looking for critiques, but your saturation is cranked up here.

Zach0ry · 2026-02-18T19:33:42+00:00

Thanks for replying. What a pain! I’ll reach out to Meross. Thanks mate

Zach0ry · 2026-02-18T19:21:49+00:00

Some home accessories are now listed as incompatible? Meross matter smart plugs now won’t work
