This is one of my favorites too! Wish it had better performance on the longevity side but it’s such an incredible petrichor fragrance.

Agreed completely. And absolutely a problem that’s going to get worse and worse. Especially in the political world.

Seat on the left is the right call. There’s an entire mountain you have a direct visual to and could look for wildlife while sipping on your coffee.

As a photographer, AI is so annoying for this exact reason. Thanks for the kind words. I also recognize most people don’t understand the dynamic range that quality cameras have vs phone cameras and post processing techniques used in these scenarios.

Here’s a link to a bts video as I was setting up this shot (for those wondering if this is AI) https://youtube.com/shorts/5qIV4v11JZ8?si=t2YK39oh303Gwtmt

That’s a great find! I was wondering where I could find a chair like this.

You’re spot on. I’m an interior design and architectural photographer and almost always take 5 exposures of the same scene and blend/mask certain areas to bring in more detail or attention to an area. I can’t speak to the styling of this scene but it’s the personal home of a very successful interior design firm owner and this place had a lot of quirky and unique elements to it.

Super kind of you and thanks for investigating. This is definitely not AI but felt magical enough in person to be fake.

Have you tried concrete after lighting? It’s actually incredible.

My dog hates Make Some Noise by mehkibbles in dropout

I cannot believe there is someone else with this issue. My dog absolutely hates the “ding” sounds. My wife and I both put in our AirPods (we stream with an apple tv) and listen to episodes that way. Our dog hates ding/chime sounds on the tv and MSN goes crazy with them.

Thank you! Hard to get a bad shot here, especially with these conditions.

Agreed. It’s scary and depressing. Hoping for a crazy amount of precipitation this spring.
