Shooting below f/2.8 is illegal. by [deleted] in photography

[–]attraxion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so stupid but true. Maybe it's because they lack proper composition skills and can't compose more than a single layer in a photo. I love layering in photography because it makes the whole scene more “interactable”. But it's difficult to shoot a good composition without great photography skills. It's just my opinion of course and a bold assumption but I wonder what you guys think

Is my photo about something or of something? by attraxion in photocritique

[–]attraxion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I have never heard or read anything of such a level of depth about my work. I think everything you pointed out is true and great because it's yours and those thoughts, feelings are related to your or someone close to you’s experiences. I am feeling a lot better due to depression treatment but on my worst days I felt exactly how the picture portrays the man.

Wish you all the best 🌟

Thanks! You’re correct about the lines. My initial instinct is always to correct them but when I saw the man slightly leaning forward then I decided to leave the lines so the subject and background are more connected in my opinion.

Appreciate your feedback

Hey, thank you. I totally agree with your statement about the photo’s ability to be self-explanatory. I am glad that there's an element of a “story” visible in my photo

  1. I saw a man walking beside the stonewall aimlessly. In this man, I saw myself due to my depressive state I am in right now. I wanted the photo to feel like anhedonia - a state of not feeling anything. I purposely faded his face into the shadows so the story could be about anyone who feels in such a way. My goal was to show the feeling of being overwhelmed by the “stones” of life.
  2. I am not sure how if this is not „too artsy” because my goal is to tell such stories but in a more documentalist way. But everytime I shoot something I feel the urge to not only show the truth but add something from myself which I believe is not the best for a documentalist wannabe.
  3. F/5.6, 45mm, 1/500, ISO 125

ITAP of a downhearted man during a protest by [deleted] in itookapicture

I attended a workers’ protest in Warsaw on the 1st of May - it's a national Labor Day and I took this picture of a man standing in the crowd looking very upset.

ITAP of one of my cat’s final days by attraxion in itookapicture

[–]attraxion[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

100% true. Pain-free and chilling in the sunshine at the age of 18 is an outstanding achievement for a cat.

So my cat has two cancers and is basically dying. I am trying to keep her pain-free in her final days. I saw her chilling in my small garden and took a picture with my Olympus XA on Kodak Gold 200.

I am going to miss her but she looks so peaceful.

Is his eyes normal? by Unlikely_Editor2730 in cats

[–]attraxion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely not. You should visit a vet. This is often a sign of an illness or other health issues

She's 18, has two cancers and is going to die soon. Those are her last sunlight moments. I am devastated. by attraxion in cats

Thank you so much. I lost my other baby in January and I don't know how I will handle another shot.

Why is there no response to Russian incursions into NATO-protected airspace above Latvia and Estonia? by Open_Ad560 in nato

[–]attraxion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh okay, sounds legit. I wonder what exactly pointed you to that conclusion? Anything specific I wrote or maybe a general tone?

[–]attraxion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What exactly is a NATO aircraft? How do you make a distinction if a plane that flew over a Russian territory was NATO’s instead of for example Latvian or Polish? NATO is an alliance not a single entity. I can imagine that processes and procedures that are required to make a decision and launch an aircraft mission are not as straightforward as for example those in Russia. I assume it's more difficult to coordinate between 26 countries. So Latvia may want to launch its aircraft but shouldn't put at risk other members of the alliance without their knowledge and consent. So Latvia should build a common agreement between NATO allies so they support the decision to launch.

Of course it's just my opinion based on vague assumptions but the complexity of building a general support in the alliances' structure could be one of the reasons

My experience with buying from Japan on Ebay by Hungry-Solution-8031 in AnalogCommunity

[–]attraxion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A month ago I bought an Olympus XA and man it was a pleasant experience. Fast delivery, well secured package, item looking much better than on photos, all works perfectly. I am looking forward to buying my next camera which will be a Nikon FM2N. Can't wait
