#Post-processing

[kenleephotography]

Is processing cheating?

“The camera cannot lie.” When photography was in its infancy, this was often said in magazines and elsewhere. But is it true? And what role does processing take in this? What is purity? There is this almost purist sort of bent among some photographers, where the general belief is that film is somehow more truthful, and that processing a digital image is somehow more deceitful. Several years…

the person who helped today when I fell out of my wheelchair actually did a really great job, so I want to share in case other people wonder what to do. [Note: this is not universal, this is merely a suggestion from one person, every wheelchair user's needs are different! I am a person who uses a manual chair usually pushed by someone else who is also disabled.]

Scenario: you see someone in a wheelchair fall out of their chair, and you have the ability to help.

1. Approach and ask "are you okay?"*

2. Next question if they say no, are vague, or open to continuing conversation** is, "is there anything I can do to help?" Or "what can I do?"

If they say no to help, then that's the end, just leave and go do whatever you were doing!

If they ask for help or say they are mildly injured, ask "what would you like me to do?" And wait for an answer before doing anything! If they seem dazed or confused, they might have hit their head or had another medical event*, or they might just be like that due to regular disability. Be patient.

Do not touch the person unless they say to, or they are like, unconcious in the middle of the road, ya know?? Wheelchair users usually have conditions that mean being handled improperly can severely injure us, you could cause much more damage than the fall.

Some things they might need you to do:

Bring their wheelchair closer (mine went about 5 feet away after it dumped me)

engage the brakes of the wheelchair

hold wheelchair steady if it's an unsteady surface (mud, hill, ramp, wet, etc)

offer an arm for them to hold onto to get up (them grabbing you, not you grabbing them) or move another solid item closer for them to use (i.e. a chair) [only do this if you physically have the ability to!]

If the terrain is rough (i.e. a parking lot), they *might* ask you to push their chair to a more stable area once they are back in their chair

nothing

Something else

Do what they ask, NOT what you think would be helpful. If for some reason you have to do something (i.e. you can't stop oncoming traffic and need to get them out) ASAP, tell them what you plan to do

Keep in mind they might also be D/deaf, have a communication disability, be stunned after the fall, have a head injury, not trust other people, etc. Be patient and treat them as a person with autonomy and agency! They might need to just sit on the ground for a few minutes to recover before trying to get back in their chair. They might want everyone to leave them alone. They might ask you to call someone specific. Their chair might have broken and that can be extremely distressing. All of this is like if your legs spontaneously stop working when you're out and about!

A lot of wheelchair users (NOT ALL) have ways to get into their chair on their own once the chair is close enough and brakes engaged (but it's hard from the ground!). Here's what brakes look like on a lot of manual wheelchairs, in case they ask you to lock the brakes. They're levers on each side and pushing the lever pushes a bar against the wheel to hold it still.

ID: A manual wheelchair with the brake levels circled in red and labeled "user brake levers"

*There is also the possibility of course that a person fell out of their chair due to a seizure or other medical event, so that is why it is important to ask if they are okay. If you saw them hit their head, tell them so. If they had a medical event, follow protocol for that, I'm not gonna get into it here (thought I could).

**sometimes a person will be clear after the first question i.e. "I'm all good thanks" clearly means they do not need you to ask another question, you can just leave them alone. Keep walking and don't stare. A lot of the time people will be a bit banged up but be totally fine and able to manage on their own.

TLDR: Ask the wheelchair user if they're okay, then what they need, and then do exactly that, including leaving them alone. Thanks!

I'm happy to give you some feedback, I just wanted to ask if there was a specific reason you did not do any post processing. No judgment or anything, but the reason could help me give you better advice.

The easiest answer is... I don't know where to start. I have NX Studio, and know how to fix the obvious problems like a lopsided image or obviously over or under exposed. But one that looks... okay? I'm lost.

So, my spouse has been exploring his gender lately; he also just built himself a new laptop. Today he told me that he in an attempt to process some genderfeels through metaphor, he made a post on a trans forum along the lines of: "I'm a lifelong Windows user and I think I'm pretty good at it. I want to find out what Linux has to offer but I'm afraid I wouldn't be any good at it. And how do you choose the right Linux distro, anyway? Do you have to try them all?"

The responses, he said, were a mix of useful advice about feeling out your gender and useful advice about choosing a Linux distro.

I love trans people so much

Edit 4/8, in case you don't see the reblogged additions -- my wife is now going by Eve!

Mastering Interior Photography: Tips to Capture the Essence of Your Home

There aren’t many topics as interesting and intimate in photography as our homes’ interiors. Interior photography presents a special chance to highlight the personality and charm of your house, regardless of whether you’re an aspiring photographer or just want to capture the beauty of your living area on camera. But it takes more than just pointing and shooting to become an expert interior photographer. It calls for an acute sense of detail, knowledge of light, and the capacity to evoke feelings through imagery.

If you are looking for interior photographers, then Studio Capture Life offers best-in-class photographers for all your interior photography requirements!

In this blog, we’ll look at some professional tips and methods to help you take gorgeous interior pictures that really show off your house.

Preparation is Key

Set up the area you’ll be shooting in advance of even picking up your camera. Straighten up furniture, get rid of clutter, and clean up any spills. Pay close attention to the little things: fluff cushions, carefully organize décor, and make sure all surfaces are spotless and glossy. In addition to looking better in pictures, a well-organized area will simplify your work as a photographer.

Choose the Perfect Angle

Try a variety of angles to determine which one best suits each room’s layout. Photographing from a corner of the room frequently yields a wider angle and elongates the impression of space. But don’t be scared to use your imagination; though; taking pictures from above or below can emphasize unique architectural details and create visual interest.

Utilize Natural Light

When it comes to interior photography, natural light is your best friend. Try to take pictures during the day while the light is coming in through the windows. Align yourself so that the light is evenly distributed over the room, coming from behind you. Steer clear of direct midday sunshine as it tends to wash out colors and cast harsh shadows. Instead, for the most pleasing effects, go for gentle, diffused light.

Use a Tripod

Whenever possible, use a tripod to guarantee clean, sharp pictures. By doing this, you’ll be able to reduce camera shake and use shorter shutter speeds without compromising the clarity of your images. You can experiment with longer exposures with a tripod, which might be helpful in low-light conditions.

Focus on Composition

When framing your photographs, consider composition. Within the frame, keep an eye out for leading lines, symmetry, and balance. Think about the rule of thirds, which states that important items should be positioned along these lines or at their intersections, splitting the frame into horizontal and vertical thirds. This may result in a composition that is more lively and eye-catching.

Highlight Unique features

Don’t forget to take pictures of the little features that provide character to your house. These little accents, which may be anything from an oddball piece of art to a delightful architectural element, give your room originality and character. To bring these characteristics to life in your images, get up close and try some different camera angles.

Try Different Lenses

When it comes to interior photography, different lenses may produce remarkably different outcomes. Wide-angle lenses work wonders for enlarging small rooms and capturing sweeping perspectives. But watch out for distortion: keep crucial pieces away from the frame’s edges to prevent them from looking deformed or stretched. On the other hand, a longer focal length lens can draw attention to certain details and compress space in a room.

Capture in RAW Format

Instead of JPEG, photograph in RAW format for the most freedom and control over your photos. RAW files are considerably more information-rich and offer greater post-processing modification options. This can be very helpful when modifying color temperature, white balance, and exposure to get the desired effect.

Try A Few Different Post-Processing Techniques

Post-processing can elevate your interior images to a new level. Play around with the exposure, contrast, and color balance with editing software. If you want to straighten lines and fix distortion, think about using lens adjustments. Aim for a natural, genuine style that faithfully captures the space; don’t go overboard.

Conclusion

Interior photography requires time and practice to master, just like any other ability. If the results of your initial projects are not precisely what you had hoped for, don’t give up. Continue trying new things, picking up from your errors, and honing your skills. If you put in the effort and persevere, you can soon be taking gorgeous interior pictures that highlight the features of your house.
