Oh yeah I love all those gender neutral emoji variants. I tend to use them, for uhhh, reasons :3
Understandable haha
Made using an IR converted Olympus E-PL1, OM System 25mm f/1.8 II lens, and a 720nm IR filter.
Settings: f/8, 1/400s, iso 200. In order to get these results, I had to do some edits. SOOC it looks like this (with custom whitebalance):
Eepy strawberry.
The burnout makes me eepy sleepy and I just had Strawberries
The exercise is not (primarily) for weight loss. It's so your body doesn't feel like a useless sack of potatoes the whole day. So you're not out of breath when picking something up from the ground. The weight loss is unfortunately primarily achieved in the kitchen.
At least, that's my experience. But maybe if you used to not move at all it makes a big difference. I lost weight when I changed my diet for the better, and I gain weight whenever I slip up significantly. But when I stopped running 15km per week (for health reasons) I didn't really gain a significant amount, maybe a kg (accounting for noise). I did become a useless sack if potatoes though, so I'm back in the grind.
You must live in a warm area, have a very well isolated house, or have heating in the floor. If I'd do they here for 70% of the year my feet will be way too cold to be comfortable
Exactly. I started reading The Fellowship of the Ring again, and it takes some getting used to that "queer" is used in a completely different way than nowadays.
So, uhhh, yeah. Why process Phoenix II in black and white? Well, let's call it a happy little accident. The lab messed up and thought that it was black and white film. After the initial confusion, I was very surprised that there were somehow photos here. After finding out what happened the lab did a bit more to it, presumably to make sure that it remains stable.
Too bad I didn't get to see what Phoenix II actually looks like, but honestly this experiment was nonetheless very interesting. Apparently when you process it as black and white film, you basically get Phoenix but in black and white.
My second attempt with Harman Phoenix 200, this time I metered most shots around 125 or 100 iso, which worked quite a bit better. Though I still had more under than overexposed shots.
Also, I'm very much a telelens person. This was another instance of me forcing myself to shoot with the wide-angle prime. I would've loved to see the 50mm version of this shot
My first time shooting a film stock with an insane iso like this, previously I hadn't gone for anything higher than iso 400 and mostly colour. I also pushed myself a bit out of my comfort zone with the 28mm, as I rarely feel comfortable shooting below 50mm.
Somehow this was the only shot of the roll that seemed properly exposed, with many others mildly or wildly underexposed. I've since checked the lightmeter of my XG9 against other references at 3200 iso (or rather 1600 iso -1 stop because the XG9 doesn't support 3200 iso). But unless I push it way harder than I'd ever do irl, I see no fault there. Edge markings and this shot are also fine, and the camera has previously behaved normally, so it was probably just a skill issue somehow.
Probably taken with the 50mm prime, but maybe with the 28mm. Scanned using my Olympus EM-5 Mk II with the Olympus 14-42mm pancake zoom. Processed in Darktable.
This film was very hard to scan, because there's absolutely no reference. Is the water/sky too cyan? Idk. But I like the colours in this image.
I'm amazed at how this ended up. Most of the other low-light shots with this camera turned out as a complete blurry mess. It's not sharp by any means, but with the conditions and a moving carousel it went quite well.
Scanned by hand using my Olympus EM-5 Mark II in the sensor-shift super resolution mode. Slightly downsampled because of the image size limit.

Tried my hand on a fair bit of editing, which I usually don't do that much. Hopefully it isn't too over the top :3
So as it turns out, photographing moving cars while manually focusing and with relatively little light in the shade is quite hard. This one was quite sharp, but some others failed a bit more
Location is the Twente Rally in the east of the Netherlands
Finally some sun again :) Shot with my Canon EOS 40D and my dad's Cannon 70-200mm f/4 L lens.
Bonus sheepies:
I'm supposed to have energy as an adult?! I have way more time than energy. Most of that time is spent doing useless shit like watching YouTube because I'm too exhausted to do anything useful
Ridiculous. How can someone write "we value your privacy" and then share data with 807 partners. If I share anything with 8 people I pretty much consider it public information already, unless I have a very good reason to trust them. Sharing something with 807 companies is probably less private than taking all that data, putting it up on a billboard, and placing that billboard next to the busiest place in town.
Seems like a good idea to put that there. People who know what they're doing won't be bothered by it, but it might save a few people from getting hacked
21 stone?! I swear you guys will use anything instead of metric
I don't really see the problem. People like to listen to the stuff and Spotify provides it and pays the creator. Seems like everything is working as intended. Looks like it's just greedy people getting annoyed that they can't get even richer.
Thanks! Kristalbad, a nature area between the cities of Hengelo and Enschede in the Netherlands. I just converted the camera and got the filter a week ago, so at the moment I'm taking pictures of pretty much anything.
