I kid you not, this was take 99 and it’s still nowhere near where I want it to be. But that’s showbiz baby.

Still dismayed by how fkn difficult it is to play the guitar. Still enamored by this instrument.

Today’s effort brings tomorrow’s dreams.

Can’t believe there was a surprise drop today and I can’t listen until after work

It’s such a fun, active, low pressure hobby 📸

Because gear to make art with is fuckin cool no matter who you are 😏

A really cool dude chillin’ in a ray of bright light.

The Barbican was stuffed full of awesome light during my visit last month.

Acoustic is more immediate (no other gear required), and is obviously essential for certain genres, but electric is far easier to play. If you find yourself REALLY struggling, try to find a guitar tech near you set up your guitar, or try to learn how to do it yourself.

Give it a good shot sometime! I re-started learning as an adult a year and a half ago and it’s been one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. Unlimited skill ceiling, so you can’t do anything except get better day by day.

The pain goes away after a couple of weeks of playing! You develop callouses on your fingers and build up strength until it becomes easy. Guitar has a particularly high difficulty curve for beginners, but it’s so worth it!

I was clearly not prepared

Lost mine at 7:30p in Mercer Island. No news on recovery time 😳

How ya’ll farin’ out there?

Impossible. Your only course of action is to move from fidgeting to sweating to panicking until someone asks you if you’re alright. At which point you start crying and THEN ask to be excused for a few minutes.

Ah nice! I’ve got a pretty quick workflow for transferring raw to my phone, throwing it into Lightroom and throwing one of my presets on when I’m just taking casual photos.

Fortunately I enjoy the editing process! I know a lot of people hate it though

Yeah Fuji colors are to die for! It was difficult for me to choose between Sony and Fuji when I was shopping for a new camera this year, but I ultimately chose Sony because of their amazing autofocus and I already had two Sony lenses.

Thanks! This is SOOC RAW converted to jpeg. I think Sony’s skin tones have improved dramatically, but I have noticed that greens are often over saturated and I have to compensate.

Oh, I see

“You don’t hate jazz, you FEAR jazz”

jazz is the dark souls of music. if u don't like it, that has nothing to do with its intrinsic qualities, which are above criticism. it is and will always be a skill issue. pick up a charlie parker record and git good

i don't know who needs to hear this, but don't stop making art

Gorgeous photo man 👌🏼👌🏼

Sony’s color science on new models is 🤌🏼🤌🏼

Sliders for ADSR. Knobs for everything else. ESPECIALLY the filter cutoff. That’s gotta be a knob.
