photos taken with a hoya red 25A filter.
dramatic skies? yes. but i still need to do a LOTTA contrast editing to actually get it that dark. and in the process foliage gets lost to the darkness too.... a yellow filter would perhaps be perfect, mostly preserve red to green and cut off blue and violet. but yellow filters are quite weak, only like 1-2 stops difference at most. definitely not enough to darken a sky more than the land. but.... what if... hmmmmmm...
wratten #12, #15, or #16. all long-pass filters. meaning they drop light below 500nm, 510nm, 520nm respectively. they're quite weak yes but subtract blue and (almost) only blue... what if . i stacked like 3 of them? maybe 4? i dont think id have to worry about vignetting cuz crop sensor. there would probably be awful internal reflection hell unless the filters were coated. but.... could it lead to... the advent of the analog version of the revered CRUNCH style https://streak.club/p/52899/crunch-by-999999999 https://streak.club/p/53026/we-can-crunch-harder-by-999999999 ???? probably not! but it might look cool!
trying out some blend of local contrast edits and agx anddd its overcooking the images a bit, but i think maybe i can work with it. i think if i can tame it agx could be a quicker way to slap some S curving on my images before doing local contrast detail work instead of using rawtherapee for curving
oh and yeah, there are shooting ranges in malls in america. because apparently everyone here fantasizes about firing off guns in the mall and needs an outlet to do so.. safely. i guess. (first one is a lightgun sorta deal and the second one is an airsoft range so, no gunpowder, but still uh. still a bit weird.)
it hurts
i know how horrible it feels to want to be seen so i carry a camera and shoot this feeling out of others? and masturbate with it too?
also what the fucccck i forgot i had found my favorite hat in march after having lost it for months... then it disappeared shortly after once the housing panic started. god damn........
also also fuck i used to dress a lot more fun. and go out more. ugh. it's too hot and non air conditioned in here for me to think anything like that though. i'm barely more than a corpse right now. it's all so heavy. so so sos os so so os so heavy. there's still so much to do. fuck.

fun camera
i felt the individual balloon photo was too busy so why not make it worse
view of it in darktable before export second
playin around with darktables filmic rgb again. its soooo finicky its almost an intuitive way to do S curving but then on some photos its just kinda a nightmare of tweaking numbers hoping for something good.
