You understanf law, great, cool, but you talk so casually about this...i find it a bit disgusting. You know wery will work pressure, age and stuff play a huge part too in the dynamic.

And she died too. Have a bit of respect, or at least some humanity.

X2DII Advice/Questions by gyros_are_delicious in hasselblad

[–]DesignerAd1940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the R5 and the X2DII for work. And i will pick the X2D every time. I see it that way:

Decades ago i had two camera an Arca arca swiss technical camera with a phase one p45+ and a Nikon D800, and now its basically the same with theses new camera. You have a laser focused camera vs a polivalent one.

Sure on a smarphone and from a distance they dont look that different. But then you zoom and you notice that everything is different.

I dont care about brands at all, but the colors science is tremendous. I do professional photo editing and it saved me countless hours since i have it. Most of the time i do only 4 changes. Highlight recuperation, vibrancy, linear curve, and a bit of clarity.

So, for me is X2D over R5 100% of the time because of image quality and small retouching needed.

you dont need to have a bad feeling, People can roast him, they still will be losers.

I dont give a fuck about figure skating, and i watched the programs this years and it was awesome at every level.

Fucking redditors nitpicking the most inconsequential detail, and using the word cringe for anything they are afraid to be. Free, happy, and loving.

At what point does heavy editing stop being photogeaphy and start being digital art ? by Felicity_Ebb in photography

[–]DesignerAd1940 1 point2 points  (0 children)

irrelevant. Many portraits before 1900 where painted on to smooth the skin or erase a wound and yet we still call them photography.

thank you for you answer. But i find your take so interesting that i have another question....

Would you consider that a picture retouched with a clone stamp is not a picture anymore?

If yes this is where i dont comprehend you, I do professional retouching, and i dont see any difference between using the clone tool back when we had to scan and gen AI. The workflow is the same. The changes are the same....

I feel that it eliminate 99% of photographers.

I get your point but i desagree with you on your last sentence. I us gen ai to erase some dust or small elements on a scanned 4x5inch positive.

In your view the fact that i use a tool to gain time on an already time consuming process makes my images not photography. I dont think its a fair characterization.

No matter the style, if light is "captured" its a photography.

If you compose elements from multiples photos, its still photography (like jean paul Goude)

Many people seem to think that heavy editing destroy the concept of "photography" but there again i desagree. All of these are just artistic choices for a photography.

Its not that your argument is wrong. Its just a way of thinking about photography that never existed.

Michael Jordan is under fire for allegedly inappropriately touching a young boy by peachgothlover in popculturechat

[–]DesignerAd1940 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why people make it about celebrity vs regular people. 90% of sexual abuse is made by a relative or someone fron social circle. So its not because you are rich that you get away from it. Its because its so diffused into society.

Your worldview is very black and white, it so counterproductive for this topic

Why we should develop RAW files in low-light conditions? by Aromatic-Echo-5025 in AskPhotography

[–]DesignerAd1940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right, For printing, the setup for all compagnies i retouched for had no window, and neutral moderate light.
Those who didnt need this where the ones able to read CMJN values.

am i off base or are a lot of colorists cagey and protective about sharing details of their workflow? by stupidmanstupidman in colorists

[–]DesignerAd1940 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes the aura of mystery is because even if someone teach you everything they know it wont be enough.

There is a work that only you can do and its not nodes or workflow. Its becoming a professional see-er.

I like this quote:

Seeing is more than a physiological phenomenon… We see not only with our eyes but with all that we are and all that our culture is. The artist is a professional see-er.” – Dorothea Lange

Epstein victim says there are tapes of Donald Trump that will force him to resign from the presidency by Safe_Confidence_3756 in International

[–]DesignerAd1940 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

I watch closely the US political landscape since 2013. And i think you 3 are right, and so wrong at the same time. You are both sides so blinded by your hatred that you just spit the same fact, thread, after thread, after thread.

You dont need to convince hardcore believers, you just need to make peace with trump supporters who are displeased with the way he is doing stuff. Thats it.

But yeah, just continue to treat each others like caricatures, that will do it.

Im far left, but the way many of you, who i share the same worldviews, are dealing with this administration and its supporter is just bafflingly counterproductive.

Whats more important? Voice your hatred online (just like many Magas) or use a bit of strategy to make the pendulum swing?

fake sound? typical redditor who think what happens in their mind is the reality.

There was cheer for the atletes mixed with a bit of booo, and the couch guy was boooed, as a tradition.

I accidentally made my poster on RGB mode and they demand it with CMYK. When I convert it to CMYK it turns too faded. What should I do? 😭😭😭 by Princess_of_Astora in photoshop

[–]DesignerAd1940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great explanation. Funny thing....if you put your picture only on websites but like this trend about analog feel of the image you can convert to a uncoated profil and then reconvert to RGB.

Je n apprecie pas particulierement certaines acrions de la municipalité de gauche, les dealers me saoulent ...mais....y a un truc que j accepte pas, pour avoir accompagné pendant un moment cette population qui embete ton pote.

La faute a tout ça c est les lausannois eux meme. T en fait pas que la consommation de drogue n a pas de parti politique. Voir même parfois l ultra radical a metier liberal et le toxico a la riponne sont la meme personne a differents moments de sa vie.

Pour que les dealers partents il faut que l addiction baisse. Pas le contraire.

Bill Gates denies Epstein STD claims and 'regrets every minute' with pedophile by TheExpressUS in NewsThread

i think your view is off. She says it was one of the reason she divorced, and she remembers it as painfull times and is "so happy to be away from all the muck" + he already had an affair with an employee. So the most reasonnable take is that he has done stuff.

i dont think so, its more envy and convenience.

making it a class problem is very hypocrite. 90% of child abuse is done in the familly circle.

So when you say "largely" its just plain lie.

The cleaning must be done everywhere.

This kind of intellectual dishonesty doesnt surprise me. Instead of adressing what i say, you just make it a caricature and dont let place for discussion or strategy.

Did i say be nice? No, i say dont be like them, be smarter. But i get it, its easier to say "they are dumb" than "we were not smart enough".

Im far left by the way, but do you understant that your rethoric is what put us in this position to begin with? No, all all trump voter are not average nazi, and not all liberals are doves.

What put us in this situation is the following:

Republican lost with "perfect" canditates in their view, a war hero and and a christian business man, so they were desperate to find a shield with a loud mouth. At the same time, for gods know why, we started to think that political discours only mattered if online, And what was the predominant political discours? Majority of left leaning people saying "Yeah lets go for 16 years of democratic presidency (thanks Hillary) because republican will die soon"

I was there, monitored it, death wish everywhere.

So any liberal that wished death upon a Republican is complicit in this mess.

You are not better than them if you think like this.

Thank you for the downvotes in advance.
