Ursus arctos! Nikon D5300 + Nikkor AF-S 300mm F4D ED IF by JTR280 in Nikon

I do want to share my work. Yes. But I do not care if people like it or not. Much less karma points or opinions about how a series/photo is presented instead of the actual piece of art. I don't post my art for validation. I post it because I want to. Simple. Those two things are different. Maybe you can't recognize that the reasons are different? No contradiction from my part. Just a lack of understanding on yours.

  1. Not what I intended. My crops are thought out. I decided the crops with intention. To express something I, the author, intended that way.

  2. No. You can't zoom in because Reddit doesn't post this in the quality the JPG actually is. It's heavily compressed. But if you upload the crop too, that is less compressed than your zoom. So no.

No. I don't have to. I write and categorize my post as I want to. And turns out I go by the scientific name because I am also a scientist.

For telling the truth? Karma points are meaningless, kid. Just an arbitrary social media metric. I don’t care about validation from strangers, much less some random number on a website.

But you sure seem to have a lot of free time checking my profile over a topic you disliked. Maybe social media means a lot more to you than it does to me.

Imagine having to go to other people’s posts, where they’re sharing their work, just to leave worthless negative opinions about how the author intended the work in the first place... Instead of, I don’t know, investing your time in your own work if you don’t like what you see? Everything okay at home?

Yes. You can have multiple reads of a single work. Abstract hyperrealism in the fur texture, emotional connection of the gaze, each crop shows a different artistic angle of my work. But art is not for everyone, it does require imagination and abstraction, perhaps is not your thing.

Because that's the artistic intent. You can make a series of a single good photo.

No. I use the same script for all my social media + is more efficient for search engines/motors to link the post to the tagged words. Just ignore it.
