A little challenge / exercise for the photographers, whether amateur, aspiring, or professional!

Shoot a flat lay with a red theme.

'Flat lay' is where you arrange objects on a surface in a visually appealing way, and shoot them top down.

No hurry to contribute, take some time and plan it out. Maybe even document the process!

Here are some inspirational examples (all from Pexels)!

Black Hole

2023 04 02 day 283 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off). I’m doing a one art-thing every day challenge to take me from wannabe artist to something around beginner artist. I’m very much still learning and am self-taught. This series chronicles this journey.

I saw an image of a black hole on the Curiosmos site, linked below, and thought I’d do my own take. Here it is!

Alien Landscape

2023 03 31 day 281 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

To clarify for those who weren’t with me at the beginning in May 2022, I decided to do a one year challenge to do some kind of art every day for a year so I could, hopefully, learn to do art. In the beginning, my art, or more accurately, “art”, wasn’t very good. I had not done much since finger painting in grade two or three. I considered myself a wannabe artist. But I figured that, if I worked at art seriously for a year, I could improve. I aspire to competence. So what you see here is very much that of a beginner artist learning to art.

On to the now. I seem to be developing a habit of painting otherworldly scenes. I must continue that with zero restraint.

Apparently Melon Husk wants to start “TruthGPT” to rival OpenAI and Google. If this is going to be anything like his “free speech” efforts on Twitter, you know that “truth” is the furthest thing you’ll get from “TruthGPT” 😛

Also didn’t Melon-boy sign a letter asking for a pause on development of systems more powerful than GPT-4 for at least 6 months? So why is *he* going ahead with development of new systems? Doesn’t the pause apply to him?

Or was the pause only so that he (and others) can catch up? 😛

The way these people do u-turns is likely to give whiplash to people if anybody actually paid attention 😀

Review of journal articles found 400 studies on menstrual effluent (blood); 15,000 on semen/ sperm. The lack of research on women's reproductive organs=lack of interventions & widespread use of the hysterectomy (2nd most frequent operation for US women).
