Sometimes I say that there are “nice photos” and “good photos”. A nice photo is usually one which is technically good (focus, sharpness, composition, post processing etc.) and it’s pleasant to look at. Properties of good photos are much more difficult to nail down because they often break “rules” intentionally and they’re so varied… but they make you feel and/or think.
I remember that exact same verse! I had had multiple traumatic happenings in life and tried to study Bible to soothe my mind and find some answers. I read the whole thing and hoo boy was it eye-opening! I tried reading apologetics to allay my doubts but they seemed like dodging the questions and didn’t provide satisfying answers. Then I started reading stuff with historical critical approach and it started to make sense. I fell away from Christianity. Then I read other “holy” scriptures just make sure I wasn’t missing something and realized that they all had cool stories but that’s about it. So, I decided to rebuild my world view on something that wasn’t based on wishful thinking… and I’ve been a content atheist for 15 years.
I have ADHD too and in those few high stress / life or death situations I’ve been in, I suddenly felt super calm and focused while some other people were just screaming. I read somewhere that people with ADHD are overrepresented in first responders and similar jobs and I can believe that.
That being said, I very much agree with JackByDev. Yeah, ADHD is a disability. It has caused much pain and suffering for me and I wish I could get rid of it.
I can try my hand at these once I have little bit of time :) Olympus has their JPG algorithms very well tuned, they do not set the bar low! Here are some tips:
Once you get a basic set of corrections you think might benefit most of the images, create a new style and try applying that to more photos and see if it works… and tweak it along. It’s less exhausting to edit when you get a basic style down that provides a better starting point. Darktable may be a bit intimidating because of the berth and depth but you’ll get there eventually and you’ll be flying through edits :) (Also, don’t forget to hotkey stuff that you notice you use a lot, like cropping etc.)
Oh, almost forgot: if you want to see cool edits using Darktable I recommend watching some videos from Boris Hajdukovic.
