btw, I liked this beautiful bonsai tree! and the wide angle. 😎

1, 2, 3.... doesnt matter - if it took you 3 sec or 60 minutes. Processing some images takes a huge amount of time indeed. And - easy to imagine imagine - traveling to a distant spot to take a certain pic in a certain lightning (be it dawn, or sunset) - may take sufficient efforts, energy and money from cameraman.

Again, I single out: this doesnt matter. Er, no: ofc it does matter, but it is not only this thing that matters. It is the product of your intellectual efforts, your intellectual property! This is, actually, one of the reasons I ventured into photography (and you may lol at it... I like to have something that actually is exclusive and its only me to decide, if I want to release it out or hold to myself!.. tho there were other reasons too...)

All in all: I feel your frustration. Sending you a small slice of consolative Hive !PIZZA... 😉
