There's so much going on that I can't post disapproving posts for every single thing. So here's just one blanket one.
It's all wrong. You know, everything. All of it. Not just in the US, but it's happening, or starting to, everywhere. The rule of law is abandoned and people are shipped off to uncontrolled foreign prisons. People's right to be who they are is removed. Institutions to help and better other people are disbanded.
We need to get back to caring about other people. Care about the next generation's ability to get educated. No matter the skin colour, no matter the social class, care about whether people can buy food. Care about people getting a fair trial. Care about people whether they are your gender or not, or have the gender you think they have, or even have a gender.
Care about other people, no matter what kind of 'other' they are.

Hi, when I follow someone I usually do this from multiple accounts, with different servers and platforms. This is partially as backup. It’s also because different software has different features. E.g. at the moment of writing I mainly post from my Friendica server, but it doesn’t yet support polls, or account migrations. So I also follow from my Pleroma server, which does notify me someone has migrated.
I also sometimes use platforms that support nomadic identity, that allows my channels on multiple servers to be synced. From software that doesn’t support that, a follow request looks like multiple separate requests from those channels.

So if you tell the Canon EOS R10 auto-focus system to focus on Saturn it's like, ok, I've got it.
Admittedly, it's very vague and it's a tiny crop from the whole photo, it being barely a spec of light, but the photo is taken with a budget camera with a budget lens and it is Saturn and the auto-focus did acquire focus. No telescope involved.

Posting on Instagram and Pixelfed both failed, in different ways. Instagram flatly refuses, Pixelfed corrupts the photoset. Maybe trying a single picture?
I was photographing with my zoom lens for a while but now Mr Bird wants a word.
(Cropped and scaled down for the socials. Canon EOS R10, Canon RF-S 18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM @ 150mm, ISO 320, Av f/7.1, Tv 1/320, Fv priority mode, Servo AF, Animal Subject Tracking. Yes, I should have increased the shutter speed, I forgot.)

Testing my new ultra wide angle lens. This is at 10mm (field of view equivalent to 16mm), the view is so much wider than by eye.
I wasn't paying much attention to the exposure, was also getting a bit late in the evening since I had to cycle around the forest to get to another entrance.

in reply to Gidi Kroon • •Don't handhold macro shots they say. Don't use the built-in flash and don't use maximum aperture. They are probably right.
(This is nowhere near the maximum magnification btw)
