The skies have spoken. We have a break from the rain and it would be such a pity to waste that. Hence I already had my daily walk and while doing that I did bother to take a few pics here and there.
I like photographing raindrops. With a smartphone, it's a bit of a hiccup to do a good job at that, but I tried my best. When I still had my DSLR these kinds of subjects were my favorite.
The lenses were dedicated to cropped photography although the camera was pretty entry-level.
All my photography posts on Hive now are just smartphone pics. The Samsung Galaxy S21 has a decent camera, but you can't expect it to perform such a DSLR. I hope to live the day to have such a smartphone that would rock an insane camera close to delivering the same quality as a decent DSLR, but I doubt it...
Oh and Bitcoin...
I don't know if you noticed it but volatility lately is almost completely absent. I woke up something like two hours ago and BTC was $16,800, I had my breakfast and BTC was still $16,800 and now as I type this post, you guessed it, it's at the same price. How do they do that?
Back in 2016-2018 it was mostly retail trading it and believe it or not but it was mostly retail that send BTC to $20k. Now we have what we wished for... financial institutions at play... How do they do that? Holding BTC so stable...until it no longer is stable.
So much manipulation in the crypto markets, but if you play your game right and control your emotions you can make your investment worth it. Just follow the halving patterns... That simple. Oh, and before I go out again, how long do raindrops live?
Thanks for your attention,
Adrian
