I like the building, although it reminds me of ugly times. Funnily it was probably one of the safest periods in Armenia's very long history. From being here all I've discovered is that it was pretty much

Loving the gradual change into spring lately. Weather picked up. More sun out there. More life around! Very motivating :)

Why do my photos sometimes look noticeably worse after exporting from Lightroom to JPG? Check your export settings. You might have something set to reduce general quality for filesize purposes or something.

Yeah haha, Armenia is a bit behind in that sense. It's still very strict. Even the metro station is a huge no. Do it and you get detained and your phone searched. Georgia was similar but way more relaxed

This was something I was working on quite a while back actually. It was quite literally a letterboxd Hive front-end. But at the time the community started to really shrink. Also couldn't find additional

RE: Progress Over Comfort - Sharper Days, Brighter Evenings
Yeah when decided to buy a 35mm film camera almost a decade ago I had no idea it would lead to all of this haha. But despite the massive hole in the bank account it creates, it's all a lot of fun. A hobby

Yeah in these environments they are essential. I'll need to get another soon myself. I have a CPL but no ND. I definitely struggled last summer with how intense the light was.

I'm eyeing up the Mir 10-A which is a 28mm 2.8 for something slightly wider, but yeah this 37mm on a full frame sensor will definitely look nice. To be honest, I donβt even know much about Sony lenses.

RE: Progress Over Comfort - Sharper Days, Brighter Evenings
Part of why I choose primes is because of the more open aperture and versatility that comes with it. Now that the sun is back out, I'm really excited to get out tomorrow and run around with my Mir 1v,

You'll definitely notice a different with the switch from the kit lens to a G lens. As well as the switch from F4 to F2.8. That'll help with some lower light but more with just getting some extra shallow

Saw the Hive/BTC pair was announced for removal on Binance. A sad outcome but expected since BTC pairs in general are less popular than USDT/USDC. But also perhaps a wake up call?

Yay for nice chunk of new camera budget! Definitely something to look forward to. Might even cover the whole thing which is nice! I feel like I'm constantly pushing people to do the opposite of micro/blogging

How's the gig going? I know you probably can't post anything from it at least til it's done if at all but could you write a bit about that if you're feeling a bit blank? It isn't really anything special.

RE: Soviet mosaics and cultural events
I love them. They're stilly very common here alongside the Lada 2107. But the 60s Volga remains my favourite. Those can still be purchased in very good condition for about $2000!

RE: Learning to See the Small Things πΈ
When it comes to the idea of cropping I tend to have an idea in mind already when I compose, so I can tell that certain surroundings are just filler I'll remove later. Maybe to highlight a certain area
