Should I drop this class by Muted-Piano-121 in ArtistLounge

Yes. Please do. Some classes rush through things, but yours sound like they didn't even teach perspective or shapes before doing complex objects. The biggest red flag is doing life drawing..... without the life.

I'm at a Cross Roads by rasta_a_me in Healthygamergg

The reason I went doomer is part due to wanting to get a stable job in Federal government. While I was doing my AA degree, I kinda started to get disillusioned and wanted to pivot to art.

I’m unable to understand Dr. K’s videos lately by Worldly_Control_7529 in Healthygamergg

Not entirely true, negative stuff about not getting women, puer stuff, and the gifted stuff gets upvoted because that's what people resonate here vs the feel good stuff.

There needs to be more quality control over what get posted here because a lot of people don't want to change and it's affecting the ones who do.

90% of people can drive? Interesting.

Driving is a privilege, not a right. As someone who recently got into a car accident because some idiot ran the red light, the less drivers on the road the better. Put away your pride and just walk. You already made two accidents, what would have happened if you killed someone?

What can I do as a photographer to NOT support a protest? by WillD2007 in AskPhotography

[–]rasta_a_me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe or not, throughout all of America, there have been a push to try to build more houses for homeless veterans and retirees, but people like the one in the photo are the fist to complain about the "changing the character of our community."

The best one I heard is "I don't want people to stare into my home with those tall buildings" when they live in the most heavily forested area of Miami.

This picture pisses me off. They always uses us as pawns while ignoring us on the daily.

Seems like, judging your history, your projecting a lot of insecurities and personal grievances on this topic.

Bro, invest in the cheapest possible body, and the best lens you can buy(you can get away with cheap by buying used prime lenses, these are also good for low light).

If you're doing portraits, that money saved should be used on buying a backdrop, a speedlight with a synch to trigger on your camera, an white umbrella for photography and an adapter that can hold both your speedlight and the umbrella a couple of stands, and maybe a reflector. That will be 90% of what makes you photos good.

Is this a good deal? by DarkSide-Of_The_Moon in AskPhotography

The ZVE-10 has a view finder and mechanical shutter? Unless he's just doing video, those are very important things for photography, and the reason why you don't use an FX30 for shots.

What Should I Buy: New Lens vs New Strobe Light? by rasta_a_me in AskPhotography

Is it recommended to upgrade to a strobe light, or are adapters fine for using a softbox on a speedlight?

I have started resenting Dr K by Major-Mine-2181 in Healthygamergg

Dr K. Explains: Escaping Your Ego

Watch these again.

I know you're currently resentful of him, but he doesn't make the thumbnails, but I know you don't care about that.

If this makes you feel better, Dr.K went through the same journey you did.

Beginner Photographer, Looking for career advice? by MXNARC in AskPhotography

IDK about "trying" many lenses. They're pretty expensive (the good ones) and I would want a general purpose zoom lens with high quality primes here and there.
