I think I’ll try uploading image descriptions instead of technical info for a bit. People can always ask if they want to know about the camera gear.
“Buttery Smooth”
Witches Butter fungus growing on a stump along the North Umpqua Trail, Tioga segment. This was a truly miserable hike but I still managed to find a few things to photograph when I wasn’t stuck in brambles or sliding down muddy hills.
“Fishing Day”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 40-150mm lens @ 58mm, f/8, 1/500s, ISO 200. Shot at Clear Lake.
“Rainy Day”
Olympus TG-6 @ 14.6mm, f/4.3, 1/250s, ISO 800. Shot at Clearwater Park.
“Not Quite Ocean”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 14-42 kit lens @ 25mm, f/11, 1/500s, ISO 200. Brackish lake behind the foredune at Baker Beach.
“Drawdown”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 14-42 kit lens @ 14mm, f/9, 1/125s, ISO 200. Every year they empty out some of the reservoirs here to make it possible for fish to spawn, giving us these stump-punctuated moonscapes.
Great. Google News added AI-generated section headings which (a) less actual news on the page (b) fuck AI.
One more push to get me to stop reading news entirely, I guess. The intersection of AI with arrogant designers (large font, no off switch) makes this especially annoying.
“One Seed Escaping”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 60mm f/2.8 macro lens @ f/4, 1/50s, ISO 400. Shot from Mount Pisgah.
“Decline and Fall”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 60mm f/2.8 macro lens @ f/8, 1/30s, ISO 12800. Shot from Mount Pisgah.
“Waking Up”
Olympus E-M10 IV with 60mm f/2.8 macro lens @ f/8, 1/30s, ISO 2500. Shot from Mount Pisgah.
