yeah, this stuff doesn’t have a lot of staying power, but still, I don’t want to know what foul miasma Napoleon tried to cover up using two bottles of this per day 😬
Great photo!
Thanks! I’m playing around with a new-to-me 24 mm macro lens I recently bought on an auction. I’m enjoying this perspective right now. So geometric.
Most of my photos are taken with either a wide angle, or a telephoto. I think that the perspective and depth of field distortion adds interest. A hint: turning the camera into portrait mode and placing background objects toward the top of the frame will distort them to appear larger. This is more pronounced with wider angle lenses. Quite a fun thing to do for mountains in the background in landscape photos, though.
do you mean turning the camera so that the format is higher than wide, or some camera setting? If you mean camera settings, I’ll stop you right there, the only settings I have are aperture and shutter speed :)
turning the camera so that the format is higher than wide
Yes, exactly.
only settings I have are aperture and shutter speed :)
I suspect there’s an ISO setting of some sort :) If it’s a digital camera ISO relates to a gain setting on the sensor. If it’s a film camera, well, ISO relates to the speed of the film.
Yes, ISO is there too, but my SOTDs in particular are still photography with artificial lighting and a tripod.
I get the lowest noise at ISO 200, and now it’s not a variable anymore (in this setup). Only aperture for controlling depth of field, shutter speed for exposure.
If I want grainy pictures, rather than cranking up the ISO, I do it in post.
Ah. Yes. I was thinking more about photos in general. The modern AI denoise tools are amazing, btw, but I had to put the GIMP in the rearview to play with them.
Fascinating stuff! I saw your original post on this topic also.
I probably don’t want to smell like Napoleon when the cologne wears off :)

Also filling in background with AI tools feels crazy
