AI images are not the problem, per se. It's those who post them as if they are reality. Knowingly or unkonwingly, the posters debase the pressumed integrity and discipline a real photographer offers in every shot. In so doing, they erode trust. Don't erode trust, dorks.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World turned 40 yesterday. Gave it some long listens over the last day. Holds up amazingly, sadly.

Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel is a timeless tune. Heard it twice today on Humane Society ads. Well done, Peter, choosing a worthy cause to lend your music to.

I remember this was the first daytime timelapse I messed around with; was fun as an experiment or novelty. Just as soon have preferred a tornado though. Would have taken a lot less work for the shot. Kansas supercell. #storm #photography

Still have light after 6 PM. Win.

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

Closest strike to date. Will probably never have another opportunity like this and halfway glad for my own safety's sake.
