Did something go awry with octodon? It looks... broken.

from a few weeks ago. When asked to dress for your shoot, always opt for the shark costume.




So I'm in the middle (the exact middle, in fact) of a personal project. 52 subjects, 52 portrait sessions, 52 weeks. Started as an excuse to shoot every week, but has kind of morphed into a positivity project: I talk with the subjects and kind of "hype" them up in social media posts next to their portraits. Good counter-balance to all the negative crap you see on social media.

Maybe I'll start cross-posting them here too.



Third time's the charm. Important note: Show more

Some . Shot in my hometown after a particularly dense fog settled down. I'm not very good at this type of and don't tend to shoot it much but i think this one came out.

Shot on a Canon 5d mk ii, probably at 1600 or 3200 iso, can't remember. Edited in Lightroom.

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

Sucks.

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:

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