Alright, thanks man :)

I think at the time of taking the photo, I might have still believed that a larger F-Stop means the aperture is wider. But this comment section has taught me a lot since then!

tf are you on about huh

Mom I’m on TV

Yeah, I definitely noticed the “you pick two and deal with the third” thing.

I think the trick in most cases is to

• Set the ISO as low as possible, depending on the lighting of the scene
• Set the shutter speed, depending on if it’s a moving target, such as animals
• Set the aperture to even out the brightness
• Play around with the ratios, as needed

That worked pretty well for my latest tries.

When I made the barn photo, I did have that composition in mind since I played around with compositions in the past, but literally had no idea what’s important for the exposure triangle. I pretty much just pressed buttons until it was bright enough and was lucky it looked good, besides the grain

Thanks for the detailed comment :)

Unfortunately, there aren’t any fireworks soon where I live, but when the time for new year comes, I’ll try it out.

But from my previous tries to photograph firework I do know that on a smartphone, it’s basically impossible xd

Thanks for the nice response :)

I’ve heard Darktable a lot, and I’ve actually looked at it before, but it looked intimidating and I did not yet really have any photos I could try to edit, so I continued doing that first. As for the webcam thing: I have a capture card, and it kinda works, but I’m not too sure on how to get a clean output through the HDMI port.

However, I’ll definitely look into those things :D

As for the lens thing: I don’t think I’ll spend money on new lenses immediately, and if I was, I’d look for cheap used ones. I kinda wanna create art and not necessarily perfection, and also I don’t like spending money xd

I think it’s about finding character in the gear you have.

Yeah, I’m sorry for the image not loading. I uploaded it in full res and my instances server doesn’t have the best bandwidth, so it may time out.

Here it is on Imgur:

Daaamn, that is crisp. Funnily enough, i did the same thing with the same camera like a year ago, but yours is much better

That might be due to me not knowing what I’m doing and because my tripod screw on the camera is somehow a bit loose.

Sadly the instance where I posted it from got shut down, so I don’t know if you can access it. If you’re interested, I could dig the files up

Exactly.

You know what? I didn’t believe you, since I’m using it for a long time on Linux and never had any issues with it. Today, when I helped a friend (on Windows) with some SFTP transfer and recommended FileZilla was the first time I realised the official Downloads page provides Adware. The executable even gets flagged by Microsoft Defender and VirusTotal. That’s actually REALLY bad. Isn’t FileZilla operated by Mozilla? Should I stop using it, even though the Linux versions don’t have sketchy stuff? It definitely leaves a really bad taste.

I’m just gonna say it: Potato salad is NOT THAT BAD!

If it’s made by your grandma and with the right ingredients, anyway.

better than the other way around.

You should probably look into if there’s a company doing this local to you. Either way, I’m very interested in this too.

ouch

People don’t use FileZilla for server management anymore? I feel like I’ve missed that memo.

That’s a wizard with a gun, if I’ve ever seen one

Why is that a bottom

God I hate what the modern Internet does to my brain. I had to double check if that laptop is AI generated
