MFU was bloody underrated. Oozing with style. This looks the same. And Cavill can do no wrong

As much as Id like to see Lewis do well and win an 8th. Charles has been way to patient with Ferrari and deserves the WDC. Lewis can win it in 2027.

F1 season finally about to start. FP1 in Melbourne here we go.

Probably the most exciting FP1 ever

Meta is the worse, just Zuck the loser collage kid, jumping on any popular trend, after his failed creepy online avatar world failed.

Now his new obsession is AI, stuffing it into any meta product he can.

It's a simple but very important distinction.

I've heard others mention that AI has no intention, things are just thrown in there. But I think that can kinda be learnt into the model.

Point of view is a different thing. You need to be human, with human thoughts, feelings, questions and answers.

Fucking love that song. Have fond memories of singing and dancing to it with my daughter when she was 4. She also love it back then.

Fortunately Subaru is one of the very few makers that had CD players in their Foresters as recently as 2023. So I got a reasonable new car with a CD player. The new WRXs still come with CD players.

Quite happy with the initial test prints. Surprised with the prints on the ivory matte paper. gives is a nice warm tone, and the bw almost a sepia finish.

Gonna do one more test on more expensive photo rag paper. And then the gallery should be up in a week or so.

Upgraded my car this year. Purposefully went for a slightly older year Subaru so I can still play CDs in my car.

Thanks for making it available in English and free. Downloaded a copy, will give it a read tonight

the victims threaten to name names. Yet, names still get redacted. It's clear one man wasn't the only culprit. Yet, politicians are relocated to upset powerful 'friends'.
This shit can not be allowed to fade, and these bastards get away with it.

If the pandemic didn’t do it. Nothing will. The rich got richer and everyone else got more so fucked over.

I was seriously cheering for something seismic to occur that would have fucked over the current social status the rich and powerful leach off

i was considering that’s also. looking at the amount of posts it had the ones below had 3 times as much. but maybe this one was rising faster.

It depended on the scene. Nearly all the images in Perugia where set to in camera BW, cause I felt thean the alleyways and textures suited. In Lucca and Viareggio, set the camera to colour, as there was a lot more colour to capture. May add a slight S curve, depending on the test prints I get back

I've written a tiny bit about each photo. Have gone through google streets and spent all day finding the streets. The website has a blog feature I may use to write a little story. Equipment-wise, the photos were taken 15 years ago, a 5D, a kit lens, in camera jpgs, minimal editing.

pretty much, I'm sure when they go to buy groceries, they don't just fill the basked, take a pic, post it on Insta, tag the shop and then walk out without paying

To many business overstate the value of exposure for working photographers

Kids just getting into photography...sure exposure has value

POS scrapped in by the skin off his teeth. hardly an endorsement of his skill or his relevance to the political landscape. Let alone giving him such a portfolio.
