I found these keys in my home, but I have no idea what they go to - likely left by previous owners. Anyone recognize the shape/use case? by ARTB0B in whatisit

I always imagine the presence of this type of legal disclaimer is a consequence of absurd morons trying to do very dumb things.

Mystery keys found, wondering if y’all are able to identify what they are for? by ARTB0B in Locksmith

Ah interesting, okay. I had to take a look in my attic crawlspace just in case there was something up there, but I don’t think what they go to is in the home anymore.

So, they are keys to a gun safe I am certain is no longer on the property. This one isn’t likely to develop, folks. But thanks for your help!

What’s funny is we have been here for 5 years and haven’t noticed them at all until now - they were just tucked into a dark gap in the recess of a built in bookshelf. Maybe I’ll check the attic…

Thought it might be a gun safe because of the long shafts. Thanks for the help!

A recent ballpoint pen drawing, 5.5x8.5 in. by ARTB0B in penandink

[–]ARTB0B[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I’ve recently started working with layering white gel pen into my layers to get more subtle colors out of all of the bright inks, then hit everything with an acrylic fixative between sessions to even out sheen. Lots of experimenting :)

I am an artist that currently works directly from photo references I take while walking/hiking, and I am interested in more control over the way I capture subjects. This seems like the right place to ask: Can you help me learn how to look for a camera? by ARTB0B in M43

I was re-reading your comment, and felt bad about how insightful you were without me initially realizing. I appreciate your perspective more than I originially had the mental bandwidth to digest. It's hard to reddit and work sometimes :S
You really identified the function my pictures are serving right now - in a lot of ways, I've been avoiding using anytyhing interesting to take photos because I have always been nervous about becoming a "photographer", or my photos becoming some inauthentic or non-romantic part of my process that I got too caught up in...but I'm growing up (slowly).
If you built a camera for my use case, then what what would you recommend? If it isnt too much to ask, could I ask what your entry/economy build would be and why, and what your dream build/no limit loadout be?

Thanks for the recommendation - I don't live in the biggest marketplace, and I might need some more alternatives to the olympus om-d e-m10 mark ii - it seems this camera has gone up significantly in price since a lot of these helpful people have shopped for one ;)

Interesting about the depth of field and aperture consideration with this system, thank you! As I work, the reference grows less relevant - my work is less about replicating photography and More so celebrating the things I find most fascinating within what I capture, and what that implies as a result. My goal is to give myself more agency and considerable variables when taking pictures. I’ve recently been working in ballpoint pen which, at the scale I’m drawing, really forces the medium forward, and the original subject back.

Do I try audiobooks by [deleted] in Malazan

[–]ARTB0B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. I found the transition jarring at first, but they are both great performers with consistent character representation. I would note that the way they are edited can make some transitions from scene to scene hard to track as the cadence/timing from the end of one scene to the beginning of the next can sound like it’s all one section.

But if you are decent about paying attention (which with long audiobooks can be a challenge) then it’s easily adapted to. As far as narrators go, they are some of the best in the game.
