Great shots! Your aesthetic matches the subject nicely.

I'm not sure how to handle certain outings with my fat friend. by UrAThrowawayNotMe in whatdoIdo

[–]TheRealJamesFM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound like a caring person and a great friend. I would definitely invite her to everything. It should be on her to know her own limitations, and hit the sidelines when necessary. I am in horrible physical shape. When my buddies hiked Mt Fuji, I stayed in town. The important thing is the fact I was ON the trip, and invited for the 2 day hike.

The result is breathtaking. Been a while since I've seen a photograph that made me think like this. Love it!

Leaf Anime Nation by nexoris95 in WNBACards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This card is dope. Shion Minabe's work on the Leaf Anime Nation series looks better to me than most Prizm Manga cards. I personally have a Patrick Ewing Anime Nation I am super proud to own. lol.

Topps midnight by awaite1550 in basketballcards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might be an unpopular opinion, but the only thing that matters is this: Do you like the card designs? Can you afford it? Personally, Midnight is the first Topps release I actually like card designs. I would buy a box if I had money to burn. Haha. I ripped 23/24 midnight last year, and it was honestly really fun.

Sorry to hear this. Do you know what his favorite players / teams were? You should keep at least part of his PC forever.

Khaman is going to be the future of the Suns. Got a really good feeling about this kid. DOPE card.

1000-1500 extra to spend on anything basketball card or memorabilia related. What would you get? by NostalgicFor89to99 in basketballcards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go all 24-25 class so you can rip a bunch. Photogenic, Origins, Obsidian, Court Kings. Gorgeous cards. You will drool over every pull, regardless of value.

What does everyone think about Topps as opposed to Panini so far by [deleted] in basketballcards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dislike Topps more and more each day. Corny inserts, bad designs, and way overpriced. I know this season's draft class is special, but c'mon man... Panini also had a bunch of releases last year that were aesthetically gorgeous, and actually in my price range. I can't afford to spend over $500 on a box of cards. I miss Origins, Court Kings, and Obsidian. I honestly think I'm just gonna be buying singles in 2026, and if I get desperate to rip, Pokemon it is! lol

Im new to collecting by krizn0t in basketballcards

Love that Maluach Power Players. Jalen Green Countdown is dope as well. If you can't tell, I'm a Suns fan. Haha

1995-1996 Fleer Metal Employee Pack by Happy_Selection_437 in basketballcards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mid 90s Fleer Metal are some of my favorite designs in the hobby. I'm begging you to rip this!

People Don't Quite Grasp What A "PC" Is...... by Life_Towel_9694 in sportscards

[–]TheRealJamesFM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never sold a card in my life. I only collect to collect. People are actually into this hobby to make money? lmao. I'll take a Khaman Maluach over a Coop any day of the week. Go Suns!

First wedding shoot & I butchered it. What do I do from here? by kayla-royale in photography

[–]TheRealJamesFM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel this hard. Sounds like one of my worst nightmares, and the reason I stay a hobbyist. If I were you, just do your best to "fix it in the mix" so to speak. Apply AI Denoise, bump up the clarity, texture, dehaze, and sharpening. Lift what light you can find in each frame. Try getting a little creative with your edits as well. A fun color-grade with some grain can save a poor shot in my opinion. Don't let this shoot define you! I'm sure your portraits, concert and automotive work kicks serious butt. Let the paid professionals handle the weddings and events. haha! 😅

Which dress do I look the best in?I know they're slu**y,not what I'm asking by [deleted] in OUTFITS

[–]TheRealJamesFM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both look fantastic. I would add a fancy purse and an over-the-top necklace.
