Thanks! No focus stacking, this is from a RAW file shot on a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Nowt creepy, just the most Silent Hill photo you’ll see today.

Yup, that’s Scotland.

Not a fisheye, no. Yes the fencing at the top left definitely helps. With the way the rocks angle down, it’s hard to make a composition here.

It was definitely gorgeous light for sure. This is a Pixel 9 Pro XL JPG with some minor edits in Photoshop: lift blacks, dodge and burn to aid direction of light, subtle glow. That sort of thing.

Honestly, Pixel did 85% of the work.

Tune in for more.

Yup. And actually applies to a range of peaks. The name of the actual peak people take photos of, including mine, is Stob Dearg.

You’re spot on.

I would actually say, around this place, nature is better than any photo can capture.

Nope.

Thanks!

Not AI generated at all, no. Would you like to see a screenshot of the original RAW file?

Ta very much!

“Conservatism […] can’t be defeated with logic and reasoning”

This is the key point that a lot of people miss.

If you wholeheartedly, or at least performatively, believe that there is a “natural” hierarchy where some people are better than others, then what one might see as equality is seen as oppression by hardline conservatives.

This is why emotion is the key component of Trumpian messaging, regardless of veracity.

The key is to never play the game. Always proactivity act with questions, never “defend” and react with truth; they’re not interested in the truth.

Thank you! Here’s a rough guide to pronouncing these place names:

Ynys Lochtyn = “UNus LOKH-tun” Llangrannog = “shan-GRAN-og”

The double-l “ll” letter in Welsh is pronounced like a “sh” sound, but harsher and further back in the mouth.

Similarly, the “ch” letter is similar to the Scottish Gaelic “ch” sound they use for words like “loch”.

Ah, apologies. I should’ve specified: Preferably Chromium based. Thank you for your suggestion though, I appreciate it.

Is there an Android browser that has ad blocking but still allows you to sign into your Google account?

Thank you! I think about colour palettes and colour contrast a lot.

Thanks!

This might give you a better idea of pronunciation.

Well this is the Yorkshire Dales; there are caves everywhere. In fact, just south east of where this waterfall is one can follow the main public footpath to Jubilee Cave and Victoria Cave. 👍

I’ll happily take that, ta very much!
