Yes, I know; I am ashamed of my crummy photography skills. But I just took it like 10 minutes ago out my back window (it is -15 Celsius, so I think that my coffee that was sitting on my desk dropped a few degrees. The sacrifices I make to post a picture...) Added a cheesy vignette to make it look like I half knew what I was doing.

I originally modified Rho's creation for a better output for X. Nothing fancy, but was very useful. Fog also made some mods for terminator, but who uses terminator?

Agreed, that's quite a nice shot Dr. C

it snowed today. The difference with a March snow storm, is when its toward its end, and you are shoveling, when its real quiet, you hear birds. Very nice

Finally picked up my camera. I'm mostly pretty happy with how these came out. The film look has been very appealing to me lately, so I tried to replicate that in some photos. Edited in Darktable as always, and as usual, there were many more shots than this, but most of them just don't cut it. :)

There are so many thoughts going on in my head about this whole photography business, that it's about to explode. :D In any case, I'm going to try and keep getting at least a few acceptable shots every month.

Also, if anyone has any requests for a different edit (different colors, contrast, saturation, etc) for a photo they want to use as a wall, tell me, and I'll do it. I have a lot of shit thoughts that I have to get out of my head, so the more to do, the better :D
