Day 4 of #PhotOctober2023 and the prompts are flat and round and empty.

This is a flat, circular viewpoint on the peak of a hill at Duke's Pass in the Trossachs. We were fortunate to have it to ourselves; full of trees and lochs and mountains, but very empty of people.

sorry, that train has been rolling away from the station a while now. externally-sourced alternative image components composited into your image without choice to make your photo look better and also no longer be the photo you took...
with the right bit of eula for the camera app used you could also claim copyright as creator of the original image components used, I guess

edit: "the" not "tge" in first sentence, damnit

"The fediverse isn't profitable"

Actually, the fediverse is a great place for artists and creators to find support for work they are passionate about and pour their soul into. It's just not profitable for multi-million dollar corporations that want to fill the pockets of already far too wealthy execs.

Just seen a new favourite response to AI text. "Why should I bother to read something nobody could be bothered to write?"

@35millimetre I think the Brum one has multiple carriages because no looping

@35millimetre we have one in brum airport/station too. it's "intermodal transitional transportation"
aka "oops, we left too big a gap between the airport and the nearest station. Hornby came up with this for us..."

Someone posted this on r/whatsthisbird and apparently this is the correct way to hold raptors but that kestrel seems unconvinced
