Accompanying photo in an online ad for a large lens carry case. They've taken the step of blurring out "Tamron" on the lenscap, but not sufficiently to make it unrecognizable.

Based on driving around today, it looks like local prices in Tennessee range from about $3.79 to $3.99 a gallon.
I dunno, but that's certainly the idea! 😄
We're not supposed to install software on computers at the new job, but I'm hoping they give a little leeway to us techs.
I'm told Firefox is OK, but I've had to add a few programs that I can't work effectively without: everything.exe, Greenshot, and Gimp. Plus a few registry tweaks.
Evangelicals: We don't care that the majority of immigrants have no criminal history. It's time for ICE to double down on cruelty and ruthless efficiency, to bring about a Golden Age.
A road closed sign on a street, with an orange barrel nearby.
Grayscale image that resembles a line drawing of a walkway and road under an overpass downtown.
Statue of an angel sitting next to a large flower pot at the bottom of some concrete steps. The charmera has added a bunch of random colorful symbols near the top and bottom of the image.
An Easter cross, decorated with flowers, on the lawn of a church. A bucket with more flowers stands next to it. Random colorful symbols added by the chosen filter run down both sides.
Some random pics with the Charmera taken during my lunch break. Nothing amazing here, but it's fun to play with the built-in filters while photographing mundane objects. #KodakCharmera #ClintonTN
Took my Kodak Charmera for a walk during my lunch break.
The sun was so bright I could barely see the screen. It also temporarily seized up while shooting. I didn't have anything on hand to press the reset button, but it powered back on after a few.
Hopefully I got something interesting!
I saw that article a while back, and they do sound intriguing. I'm not sure I can justify the expense when my 5-year old Kindle works just fine, but it's tempting. Hope you have fun with it!
With all the commercialization of this holiday, sometimes it's easy to forget the reason for it. This man had a vision of a better future for all of us. So when you're having your salmon and singing "Magic Carpet Ride", please remember Zefram Cochrane and all he did for us.
Happy First Contact Day
I've got mine in my car, and decided I'm going to start taking it to work. They're too much fun to leave at home.
Also, raspberry is always a better choice.
I recall doing the same thing with a red filter of about the same size on my Holga, despite there not being an actual filter thread. It worked pretty well.
Love the Picard reference. 😁
Should have bought a Konica...
It's OK, because he's just a "baby Christian." Or so we were told during his first presidential campaign. 🙄
Redbud trees blooming by a nearby lake in Oak Ridge. Heavy fog is hanging over the water and trees on the opposite shore, while the morning sun casts a warm light on the scene.
Today's #SilentSunday pick for the pachyderm place is an older image shot on my way to work at the Oak Ridge National Lab in April 2008.
If this photo were a human, it would now be old enough to vote. Disclaimer: This photo isn't actually human. #KonicaMinoltaDiMageA200 #Tennessee
Professor Xavier just hasn't found all of us yet.
That sportsball team lost the game tonight, despite the players each giving 110%.
They should have given it 111% if they truly wanted to win. #Sportsball

A gray squirrel cautiously looks around while holding onto a tree limb. He/ she is partially bathed in warm morning light.
A gray squirrel scampering cautiously across the lawn.
The warm light soon vanished behind clouds, but I managed to get a few shots of them scampering around our yard this morning. #SquirrelSaturday #FujifilmXT5

A cinematic, horizontal portrait of a woman with long, wavy blonde hair that partially covers one of her green eyes. She is looking directly at the camera with a soft expression and slightly parted lips. She holds a large, ornate silver necklace with a prominent red stone against her chest. The image has a cool, desaturated colour palette with a soft, teal-toned background.

The article seems entirely unaware of a third group of people who refuse to use LLMs at all on ethical grounds.
It has surprisingly little distortion for being so wide. I added a touch of drama here by tilting up slightly.
Do you suppose Coca Cola paid them to do a mural by hand? Or maybe this is meant to be a criticism of capitalism — something akin to Andy Warhol painting Campbell's soup cans. 🤷♂️
Black and white image of a woman wearing sunglasses standing in front a brick building in a small Tennessee town. The wide angle lens tilted upwards creates a dramatic distortion. Someone has hand painted a Coca Cola mural on one side of the building, and "Weird Side of Rockwood" is painted above that.
Testing out the Viltrox 9mm AF f/2.8 lens with my lovely and patient muse. Terrible time of day for lighting, but I'm happy with the overall results.

I see people engaging in this obnoxious behavior in all sorts of public venues: restaurants, doctor's waiting rooms, and just yesterday in a public library.
Maybe we need to normalize politely confronting these idiots.
