Reconsidering my whole idea of photo posting. I’ve settled on 4 spots: Lightroom Web Albums for events (mostly family and friends), SmugMug for art, Instagram for audience, Micro.blog for blogging fun. Could be some cross-posting and definitely some reorg. Goodbye Flickr.
Photography
I just ordered my Christmas present: Venus Optics Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens
Every time I pick up a camera now it’s my APS-C mirrorless. Seriously thinking of selling all my full-frame gear. Too heavy for me to tote around.
📷 I’m finally consolidating photos and making them accessible from my photos page here on micro.blog. I might even get around to using the new photo album support that @manton has recently added at some point.
BTW, a shoutout to Shawn King (@KingShawn@mastodon.social) of BC. Professional explainer. Runs excellent and fun photo walks and beginner photography classes. Look him up if you’re in the Vancouver area.
One of my project for the next year is to move from SmugMug back to Flickr. Yes I know it’s the same company, but I think my style fits far better in Flickr for publishing.
Loading up on photo apps. Thinking of trying out Luminar Neo since it is in Setapp. Since the mods are “AI” powered I would not try to pass them off as original. Any experience with this beast?

TIL Always check the white balance setting before a photo tour. 📷🙄
Go ahead. Make my day.

Ann and I had lunch today in the magnificent dining room at Naniboujou Lodge on Minnesota’s North Shore. The designs and colors were used by the Cree Indians. You can find some history here.

It was a beautiful day in Duluth. A welcome change from the rain yesterday in Rochester. Here is a picture of the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge open for sailboats.
