#lessismore

A little #beforeandafter comparison, demonstrating my editing style/aesthetic. This shot was in B&W from the get-go: on the left is a straight out of camera JPEG version (created in camera, I set RAW and JPEG creation in tandem) of it that served as a proof for viewing, on the right is the end result after making adjustments in #lightrooom and #photoshop (don't remember exactly what I did but it was minimal, including lifting shadow/dark tones a bit). Sometimes #lessismore as I tread a fine line between natural looking and vibrant w/photo editing. Model: Karina. Camera and lens info: #fujixt3 and #tamron1770mmf28. Settings: 48mm (71mm full frame equivalent), ISO 400, f/2.8, 1/180 using natural light, aperture priority mode. #blackandwhite #monochrome #blackandwhitephotography #monochromemagic #photography #photo #photoediting #demo #comparison #portraiture #portraitphotography #woman #model #cowgirl #countrygirl #flower #cowboyhat #rural #rurallife #adobe #fujifilm #tamron #aperturepriority #naturallight #naturallightphotography #naturallightportrait

#newIntroduction

Hi, I’m Adam. I teach film & culture at a small college in Montréal(unceded territory). Bonne Française, wenig Deutsch & Latin.

I also do carpentry & renos. Interactive sculpture & music are my creative practices.

I’m straight, but not narrow. Until women, the differently-abled, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Trans Folx & Worker’s rights are universally protected, no human is really free.

We are in a climate crisis. #LessIsMore #LeaveItInTheGround

Replied in thread

3/ Au final, heureusement, j'ai pu distribuer des versions imprimées des tutos des #MastoEcolo (au bout du lien ci-dessous, 5 pages en PDF) et les ami·es écolo étaient intéressés (certains avaient créé leur compte ces derniers jours, d'autres vont le faire bientôt).

Mais je me suis dit qu'il ne fallait SURTOUT PAS aller trop vite et vouloir tout expliquer là maintenant tout de suite.

Parfois, #LessIsMore et aussi #SimpleIsBeautiful

@potterybyosa well I’m a wannabe potter, and have spent a fair amount of time time in central, east and west Africa (I’ve got fabulous plates/bowls/ovenware from a fantastic pottery in rural Rwanda from when we were there 20+ years ago) and I seriously love your work…

I’m also a #LessIsMore type person. Thanks for being here

I'm looking for advice on the best way to install Python on a new MacBook Pro 🍎

On my Dell XPS 13 with Ubuntu 24.04 the time to install Python and start programming is literally 0 seconds, since it is pre-installed 🐧

I would like to avoid bloatware (eg: Xcode or similar), Docker (at least for now) or GUI, unless absolutely necessary to create a virtualenv in the terminal and start programming with Django (if it's possible) 🐍

Less is more ✨
