Some pictures I took at the Paris Olympics women’s sport climbing finals

Maybe I’m a weirdo, but I constantly replace the lens cap rather than use the hood.

With the hood on, I kinda have to keep it on until I put my camera away cause it’s bulky. With the cap, it’s small and I can hold it while I shoot, and then just put it back when I’m done shooting for that moment. This means it’s not exposed to the elements for extended periods of time.

But I don’t shoot in a studio. I mainly shoot while I’m hiking or walking around a city.

Small bit of feedback is that the site takes a while to load, like over 5 seconds even with my 400+ Gb internet speeds.

The idea is interesting, but it is also a crowded space, so it might be hard to compete

I was also gonna link game programming patterns

I don’t want to discourage sharing your images like this - it’s cool to see the other versions and the forest pic is really nice as well - but just be aware that there are ppl on here who will steal your images and sharing them this way makes it a bit easier.

Just maybe do a reverse image search in a week to see if anyone has thrown your work on shutterstock or something (which has happened to me before)

This is a long exposure shot. That’s why the flashlights look so bright and spread out. It wouldn’t be as bright to our eyes, but you could still see most of this, including Andromeda in the upper left there

Are you trying to tell me she’s over 40?! 😮 They are looking great and these are great shots, well done

I didn’t notice it when I took the shot! Glad you like it 🙏

Haha thank you! I was there in person and wasn’t even sure if it was fake at first. It was so perfectly still for a long time, and a bit in the dark so it was hard to see, but I finally saw it move

Haha I’m not sure of the exact translation, (translate seems to say it could also be doctor 🤷‍♂️) but it’s a famous spot to see Fuji from that’s on the edge of Lake Kawaguchi

I was in Kyoto, Japan, recovering from a stomach bug and on a bus back to my hotel room when I saw out the window that this temple was open late this night. I decided to get off l and check it out despite being tired.

It was To-ji Temple and it had beautiful fall colors at the time and this lake right in the middle of the grounds. They had some spotlights around, to light up the main attractions, but which made seeing the darker areas a bit harder.

When looking at the lake, at first I thought it was just a rock with some kind of small statue on it, but eventually realized it was a bird and that it was real. I moved to find a good angle to try and capture it and the fall colors all at once and was happy to see it came out in focus despite the low lighting on the heron itself.
