    Generative landscape art – a (horror) vision of the future of photography?

    I read a comment about generative AI for text recently that made me chuckle. "Why should I bother reading something that nobody could be bothered to write?" What's the photographic equivalent of that sentiment? "Why should I bother looking at a photograph of nothing that nobody made?"

    Ageing photographers and the weight. Simplicate and add lightness.

    I hear you, but it's "down" as in "down a size". There's no implied negative connotation. This morning I was looking at some of the work I did with that X-T2 and a tilt-shift adapter with Olympus OM lenses. Objectively, I think it's still some of the best work I've done with any format (film...

    Fun with MF images 2024

    The 16:9 aspect ratio works well for this one. Nicely done.

    Honestly, that describes so many situations in life! ;)

    Tripod Leveling with Legs

    Thanks, but am I missing something or is that not the exact method that Matt described in his text and drawings to start this thread?

    Fuji's tour de force

    That's a very positive review from Michael Clark. Thanks for sharing.

    Ageing photographers and the weight. Simplicate and add lightness.

    I entered digital seriously with a Sony A7. Like you, I switched down a size to a Fuji X-T2. I made this decision because with APS-C I could use 35mm lenses and a tilt-shift adapter to have movements. What sealed the deal for me was making 17" x 25" prints with the X-T2 and comparing them to...

    Fungus in my sensor

    I have to be honest Sean, I'm not sure what I was trying to say there! ;) What would have made sense is "It doesn't look like any fungus I've seen on lenses." I've never seen fungus on a lens I bought new, but I have very few of those. I've seen fungus on lots of lenses for sale from Asia. I...

    Behind the picture: share your thinking

    I'm trying not to clog up the thread with too many responses because it will be better if it's mostly posts from people with examples... but (1) this I really like -- nicely done; and (2) I think you might enjoy the work of a Canadian photographer named Ned Pratt. His book, One Wave, has a lot...

    Will you be getting Capture One Studio?

    I really do like this about Lightroom: everyone gets the same upgrade. Hopefully Adobe doesn't decide that what Capture One is doing is a good idea!

    Tripod Leveling with Legs

    Every time Matt makes a post like this, I regret not paying more attention in math class!

    Tripod Leveling with Legs

    This is really useful! I've always used Method 1. Method 2 is way better.

    Ageing photographers and the weight. Simplicate and add lightness.

    Excellent! Whew. Another nice thing about FLM is Ari, the North American rep. He's terrific and will take care of you if there are any issues. He's also a member on this forum.

    Behind the picture: share your thinking

    Here’s an example to start the thread. I’ve walked and driven past this scene often. It’s the end point of a quick walk I’ll take during the day to get a break, and it’s on the way to and from the office. Every day, thousands of people drive and walk by this spot. This isn’t a photograph I’m...
