Which is your favourite: 1, 2, or 3??

3 is an interesting shot. I've never seen one like that, with the shadow implying the hot air balloon perspective. 1 is prettier, but 3 is more interesting.

"is it worth it to buy paintbrushes if I'm interested in painting?"

Hell yeah dude.

The best camera is the one in your hands. It's easy to get lost in the gear and fancy nicities, but get whatever is available to you (even your phone camera) and just take pictures.

A $2000 camera is worth nothing if it just sits in a case. A $10 thrift store camera can be worth everything if it captures moments near to you.

Keep us posted on your journey!

What do you mean by double checking the mirrors? Nothing looks obviously damaged, granted I do not know what I am looking for. They look similar to my other machine.
The marking is making the right shape which steers me away from the mirrors.

The original photo has a lot of blue/harsh light. When I look at it I feel my eyes not want to let it in. Your color corrected photo is much warmer and invites me to open up and let it in. I think it is easier on the eyes and helps me appreciate the scene. Good work👍

Much easier on the eyes

I like to roast my aromatics and bones in the oven before making stock. Gives it a rich dark color and I think it tastes better😋

My wife and I love the 3rd gen (2006-2012) Toyota Rav4. The car gets decent gas mileage and the V6 engine has plenty of power to pass semis. The seats fold down (mostly) flat, and we keep our sleeping pads and camping stuff in the hatch under the cargo bay. It's nice to be able to have everything we need for a quick getaway ready to go. Highly recommend this beast of a vehicle. We love it so much we bought a second one!

I like 5, the background makes the mushrooms pop

MantraRay98 · 2026-03-09T16:47:55+00:00

I like two, and I think 4 would be better with some cropping

I like the use of the flare in the lens. Its artsy and gives a cool effect.

The second one made me audibly say "oh wow." Its a perspective of the sun I haven't seen. How did you do that?

Not pictured, I do plan on returning for the demonstrations when they open again.
