    I made the mistake of test driving a '17 Alfa Romeo Giulia TI. Now I'm hopelessly enamored with it and must own one.

    Red '17 Ti with the paddle shifters for $23k. 33mpg, factory warranty..

          God I miss reading Kill Stories on forums... Was always fun trying to decipher which were entirely made up, which were stolen from movies, and which ones even had "opponents" that knew they were racing the storyteller.

                Konica 57mm f1.4 arrived. There's dust and a little fungus on the internal elements. the focus helicoid is all gummed up and hard to turn. Wide open it's blurry as shit and has a ton of CA. What a crap lens. 🤣

                  This was my first shot with it. A shrub, literally 4ft from the door to my apartment.

                    Well you got me looking back through some of my pictures from this last season.

                    491789856883e73916859k.jpg

                    491794804762b8f070eafk.jpg

                    Weird how the imbedded image isn't full res, but when you click on it, it is.

                    Also, @Jdesign I just realized your car has been my Flickr icon for the past however many years.

                          I feel this. Literally nothing going on right now. I'm out there taking pictures of shrubs and trees and shit.

                            I just started a flickr account like 2 days ago because I'm bored and I figured everyone here is probably sick of me going on and on about cameras. The internet led me to believe there was some kind of community there, but I haven't found it yet. I'm too cool for the gram or fb; not sure what else to do with this stuff...

                              I can't speak for anyone else, but I've enjoyed seeing your camera and photography related posts, and I'm learning a little even so I'd say carry on. The shots lately have been awesome too.

                                  Your best bet for a community is either Instagram or Reddit for more camera focused discussion.

                                  Flickr is just a good hosting site for high res images.

                                      I would check in the sidebar of that sub. They will usually link to other more niche ones. Usually the larger ones aren’t great, but wouldn’t hurt to subscribe to it as well.

                                      r/Analog is a smaller one but posts a lot of good film stuff.

                                          There are times when I disagree strongly with the cars that they feature, but the photography is always on point. I don't know what it is, but there is a certain something that makes their style unique. DOF is never too shallow, lighting is always great.... not sure what else, but it's very recognizable.
