Oh that's funny I went for a walk today too! What a gorgeous day it was! Here's the picture I took:

Bliss - Windows XP default background

What's even more remarkable is that someone actually did that, in January 1998.

Even as a child I always assumed that it was artwork.

Damn I need to get out and enjoy the world.

The colors are highly saturated. It wouldn't look like that in real life.

bstix@feddit.dk · 7 pts · 1y (4 replies)

According to the source, he didn't saturate it.

I drive by something like that daily. Some days it does look like that, but it mostly looks like a regular manure field. Capturing it on camera is a matter of timing.

Actually, the photographer used a film that saturates the greens

Porque no los dos?

dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de · 2 pts · 1y

Because it isn’t both.

The he actual photographer said that this image was straight from camera, but they used a film that saturates certain colours.

O'Rear remarked that he did not enhance or manipulate the photograph.

I don't believe that, it's way to saturated

ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip · 32 pts · 1y

O'Rear used a Mamiya RZ67 medium-format camera on a tripod and Fujifilm's Velvia color film that saturated green and blue colors.[7][10]: 2:29 [11] He credited the combination and said that if he had shot with 35 mm film, it would not have had an identical result.

Claim is it hasn't been edited but it did use film that saturates certain colors by default

Fujifilm's Velvia color film that saturated green and blue colors.

Photography has never been an objective art.

Today's "enhancement" is yesterday's "choice of film"

People out there who want photos with no "manipulation" (when talking about general colour and levels) are generally people unknowledgeable of photography who don't know what they're asking for.

Velvia is a banging film tho

Further down the article it talks about why it's that colour.

It's a pretty cool story!

Remember that desktop image from WIndows XP? Here it is today. Feel old yet?

Went on a walk today, took a beautiful picture of the clouds.

humorlessrepost@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 1y

If you squint just right, that one cloud almost looks like a window. And just below it maybe some writing.

ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 1y

Gru from Despicable me. That cave combined with the shape of the shadow always reminded me of him.

Is this some wallpaper or something? I don't recognize it.

I remember where I've seen this before! You drive through there in the intro of Forza Horizon 3!

Haha I was actually there 2 years ago, doing a trip around the top of the south island, NZ

I'll never understand why people lie so blatantly like this.

I took this selfie on acid

Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de · 24 pts · 1y (3 replies)

Was your phone on acid too?

howrar@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 1y

On lead-acid, yeah. It was a fun time for all.

ininewcrow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Everyone that responds to this thread is on acid .... the trip's only just begun

Decoy321@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

I was told there'd be free acid here for showing up. Where's mine?

There are real tommy tallaricos out there, but I think this one is a joke.

Excuse me! This is the Internet, people don't lie here. I actually met Mother Theresa on here, do you think she would lie?!

Forester@pawb.social · -6 pts · 1y (2 replies)

I'm pretty sure that that's not the Microsoft one, but is a slightly different angle. You do know that the cave is a real place right?

Okay I get it. I'm not looking at it. I'm doing it from memory. Congratulations on pulling it up and doing a side-by-side that was way more effort than I was going to do on my phone

TachyonTele@lemm.ee · 15 pts · 1y

It's the exact same picture lol

Bezier@suppo.fi · 8 pts · 1y

I don't see the angle difference. The colors and lighting look the same. It has the exact same clouds, too.
