From a photographers view this picture is next to impossible to take. There is bright sunlight on the plane and then dark shadows on half of the crowd. You can of course lift the shadows, but from my understanding this would be frowned upon if this was done by a photo journalist. Too much editing. As a campaign photo, it’s more like an ad, and should be seen as such.
I find it strange that the people in the shadows are backlighted, (the white outlines on everybody), where is that light coming from?
I don’t find it strange that the reflection on the plane don’t show any people, since the reflecting area is curved.
What I belive has happened is someone took a photo of the crowd, bussed in from who knows where, found that the crowd in the shadows were hardly visible (and would be invisible to people giving the pic a short glance), and decided to either enhance what was there using AI photo touch up, making it not fake, but giving it an unreal look. Or just used AI generative fill to add a better lit crowd, which would be as fake as Joe Biden.
Or that the the movie need… great actors.
I think it has been proven to all of us through personal experience that waking someone not ready is an impossible task, but at the same time people will suddenly and simultaneously change opinion when the dam breaks. Like the Biden-Trump debate. Many more such events will happen before the election slowly crushing the democrat party, making them unelectable.
He did save them from themselves, he never mandated the vaccine, instead promoting alternative cures. It won’t stick, but they will try.
Interesting, is this the start of making Trump the father of the vaccines, so they can finally inform the sheep of the side effects?
I have loved The Smiths since their first singles, but I don’t keep up with any of my former idols anymore. I read the reviews of his 2018 album Low in high school where journalists who used to be big fans gave it a low score and hated it, then I knew I had to give it a chance. It’s absolutely fantastic, probably his best.
Lyrical highlight:
And I recommend that you
Stop (stop) watching the news Because the news contrives to frighten you To make you feel small and alone To make you feel that your mind isn't your own
I belive that too, I really haven’t a clue wether Taiwan should belong to China or not though.
A theater war, I belive that too.
Another thing that just hit me after reading the news here. Kamala may have to take a stand in the Israel/ Palestine conflict. Her voters expect her to stand by Palestine. How will the jewish lobby react?
War have a way of making people show who they are.
Same experience here. My first job working a hotel restaurant in London, my boss went on holiday for a five weeks and I took over with no extra pay!
The number of guests more than doubled and when my boss returned he wasn’t to happy about it since it made him looked bad. He accused me of stealing a 5kg (10 pounds) can of Ovaltine, which was so ridiculous I didn’t even get mad. I just sympathised with him. I really liked him.
I stayed in the business for 25 years.
I know my camera can do that, an Olympus OMD EM1 mkII, I belive my panasonic GH6 can as well, but I have only done it with the former.
Thank you, very interesting.
Are you saying Trump has said he likes the photos from this photographer?
One tell would be if the photographer was shooting in aperture mode or shutter mode. It is usually what is most important at the time. Like if he wanted a shallow depth of field - aperture mode. If the sky was the background all the time this is not necessary but I heard he wanted the flag in the background as well, maybe he opted for it to be blurry. Then the shutter speed would be set automatically.
If he was using shutter speed priority and dialled in 1/8000, the shortest available. I would take him in for questioning, highly suspicious.
My cameras are able to take pictures before pressning the shutter, I have only used this on a few occasions to capture cannons shooting a salute.
If I remember correctly, you have to use a special setting and then half press. The camera start taking pictures at a fast pace without saving them. When the action takes place you press fully and you’ll have pictures from a few seconds back before you reacted.
It’s really cool and gives you a much bigger success rate. If his Sony camera have this feature, I don’t know.
Or the opposite, he was hoping to catch a weird facial expression of Trump, as these shots are the ones leftist media usually publish. 😁
I’m also a photographer, I wouldn’t use F1.6 while shooting with the sky as a background. At f4 you would have less risk of getting the shot out of focus. I found it very odd. He knew what was going to happen and wanted all the blod splats to be frozen. These people are sick.
My reaction would have been the same and not because I’m fearless, but because I would have thought, ok now this that I have been expecting for years happened. Is this real?
I learned yesterday that comes can’t physically fart because of having four stomachs. They belch.
The CO2 they omitt is part of a circle and do not add to the total, unlike ”fossil” fuel.
Also he was just reading the room, the energy from the USA chants. At least that what he said himself.
Wasn’t there a Q post about what if there are texts between FBI officers discussing assasinating Trump? Now would be a good time to release them.
First thing on my mind, both iconic pictures. Fills me with awe.
Meaning Q is no longer needed.
I belive our job was to plant seeds and take the bullets being labeled crazy. Now we pop the corns and enjoy the show, falling back and supporting the new troops.
Isn’t it interesting how Trump and Miller is making a point about how they have no connection to Agenda 2025, even though (as it seems to me) their goals at this time is not that controversial.
Now about Q…
Swedes are the most brainwashed people in Europe, unfortunately. A staggering 90% of swedes thought Hilary Clinton was the best candidate back in 2016.
Up until 1969 there was only one channel on tv and only one newsroom. Channel two started with a second news room with the intent to provide a more left leaning spin to the news. So one leftwing and one extreme left.
The backlash to socialism is just forming with the left in a crossroads. They have admitted they were wrong about everything. Immigration, energy, etc, but they have yet to tell their voters what they want to do instead. Like Titanic they are still on a crash course unwilling to confirm the ice ahead.
Maybe they are hoping that their voters are as dimwitted as the Democrat voters in the US, not caring about the lack of policy. We’ll see in 2026.
