@tats @ElectricMink Shoot early, shoot often. Shoot in RAW (the fuji for sure does this). Learn the exposure triangle. Develop a culling workflow early on (know when to delete). Uh... have fun? :)

@tcql Thanks. Not exactly called out when you visit the main site.

Oh. I guess we're at war with #Syria now. US just chucked a bunch of cruise missiles at them.

Sucks.

@Phancypants I listen to insrtumental hip-hop beats on spotify. Repetitious.

@ElectricMink That's correct, the T6 has approximately a 1.6x maginification. It makes the 50mm basically a perfect portrait photography prime. Also forces you to compose "on your feet" rather than relying on your zoom lens.

Oh, good. Thanks for answering my hashtag question.

Here's some more work. 3 lights - umbrella'd main, 2 bare flashes behind subject on both sides.

Does Mastodon do hashtags? There's no manual to this nonsense. :sunglasses:

@wavbird Thanks! I have plenty of photos to share. Just not sure who's reading and who isn't (new to this whole mastodon thing). Does it propagate to other "servers" automatically or is it just on this particular octodon.social node?

@ElectricMink Get a 50mm. You can get the Yongnuo 50mm 1.8 for like 50 bucks. Well worth it.

@ElectricMink What subjects do you shoot?

So I'm a photographer. I specialize in portrait photography. Is this network conducive to photographers? Are there other photographers using this?

No idea what to do here.
