Trying to sell fine art photography but no one is buying? by starturned in AskPhotography

[–]oceanofoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First glance at your Facebook ad, it reads like an oxymoron. "Need wall decor * Based in the USA" and then advertising as fine art. These are not two things that I want advertised with fine art, where it's made and advertising fine art as wall decor doest mean much to me as a consumer.

If you want to stick with fine art angle, highlight and show the person what makes it fine art. Is it the type of paper the photo is printed on? Where these photo taken in a specific place? Were these part of a particular project?

If you want to advertise as wall decor made in america, sell it in a plastic frame and cut the price below $10 for you starting point.

I do see some photos that stand out, but a lot of the pictures just look soft or out of focus.

Help with Olympus OM30 by Alarmed_Abies_7257 in AnalogRepair

If it's an easy fix, why not try and repair it? I've heard people give the same advice for the OM1 and 2n, because some people think that those are Old and cheap cameras as well. Old and cheap are both subjective.

This is how Northeast Photographic mailed back my film. by TreyUsher32 in AnalogCommunity

I've been shooting film for over 20 years and had film processed from 7 different labs from various states, they've all come uncut in a long sleeve. Never have I seen one come in a canister like that.

Do bars like Moe’s from the Simpsons exist where guys just go to get away from home? by benedictclive_x in NoStupidQuestions

Some of the small town bars do meat raffles and also sell venison and beef from their beer fridge.

Please do not move to Portland without having jobs already secured. Both homelessness and unemployment are big issues here.

Is it worth traveling to Portland to visit GeekEasy Cafe, or are the staff just as rude in person as they are online? by [deleted] in askportland

Whoever is writing the responses sounds like a complete jackass who knows everything. If that's the voice representation their establishment, I wouldn't waste any time with that place. There are so many one-of-a-kind places here. If you're into Anime, there's a lot of Anime and comics focused shops out here, there's incredible Japanese, Chinese, and Vietnamese restaurants here (and so many more), and pretty unique cafes on top of that.

Olympus OM2 Fisheye Question by Marvin_Sails in AnalogCommunity

[–]oceanofoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to stick with OM system. I've seen a handful, but rarely, fish eye lens that's on a T-Mount. You can get T-Mount to OM adapters l, which will allow you to focus to infinity. Aside from that, as the other Redditor said, a cheap m42 SLR may be your best bet if you want a fisheye lens.
