It’s amazing to feel like a noob at something. I’m trying to learn videography and Final Cut Pro. My mind gets blown with every tutorial I watch. Big fun.

Had a Scott Pilgrim moment today. A well-dressed elderly couple knocked on the door and asked if I spoke Russian, in Russian. I responded, in Russian, that I spoke it poorly. Proceeded to have a short convo in Russian, and I just don’t whether I get coins for it.

He said I could call him Batman. I agreed. Fun shooting Saadio at NOVA Photography Studio testing out lighting and backdrops for an upcoming workshop. Shot with the still amazing Fuji GFX 50R and the GF 63mm lens. FUJIFILM X/GFX USA

I took a week off for Spring Break and one of the funnest things I did was spend an afternoon mentoring Brooke on photography and retouching. I had her use my Fuji X-T4 to practice shooting. It's an incredible camera for learning. FUJIFILM X/GFX USA FUJI X PASSION

Get in loser, we're going time traveling... I usually don't get in front of the camera, but I made an exception for this movie-replica time traveling Delorean we had in the studio this weekend. Fuji GFX 50R with the 63mm f/2.8 lens. FUJIFILM X/GFX USA

In the ramp up to Halloween, I watched The Lost Boys with my 16-yr old daughter tonight. I saw it at the Dream Theater in Monterey, CA in 1987. It was an epic experience. It still holds up well. And the soundtrack is still amazing.

AI masking in Photoshop has gotten incredibly good. It makes doing crazy creative shots simple. No more tedious selection with the pen tool. I wanted a Stranger Things feel to the shot. This only took a few min. Sky replacement was handled by Luminar Neo.

Black Sheep coffee in Plano, TX. The drip coffee will put hair on your chest. Very industrial vibe. Would be great for a photo shoot. #blacksheepcoffee

LinkedIn is now using everyone's content to train their AI tool -- they just auto opted everyone in. I recommend opting out now (AND that orgs put an end to auto opt-in, it's not cool) Opt out steps: Settings and Privacy > Data Privacy > Data for Generative AI Improvement (OFF)

Was at the record store this weekend. It was busy. Mostly teenagers browsing vinyl and cassettes. There is huge pivot underway: virtual to physical. I see it in music, books and even tech with momentum from "cloud" to self-host/on-prem.
