Using Memmy, I see no pic. Am I doing something wrong?

[-] TommySoda@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Same. I've tried three different ways of using Lemmy and can't see anything

I posted the pic and can't see it anymore 😕

Firefox browser, no photo. Any chance you could make a link to it in a reply? I wanna see it!

[-] pendingdeletion@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I’m using wefwef and also cannot see the photo.

[-] Standingcat@feddit.fun 3 points 1 year ago

Its working now. Im pretty sure this is because lemmy.world was breeched and they were cleaning up the instance at the time you saw the post.

[-] bleepbloopbleep@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Can't see it either. I'm on Connect

Nice shot! I’m at a lavender farm today and tried to get a shot like this but couldn’t pull it off lol

Often when I'm out with Bowie (the dog) I try to get a shot of insects, I've had a lot of time to tweak camera settings and experiment. But when it comes to catching focus I usually just leave it to the auto focus gods and hope for the best, I think l deleted 100 shots to get this one.

[-] Casmael@geddit.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I probably have a success rate close to 1000 - 1 for shots like this. The methodology is ‘spray and pray’ imo. Fortunately all digital photos cost is disk space

I'm a bit surprised. They love buzzing around our lavender. They also love the mint and California poppies that we have. I have seen a couple take naps in the California poppies.

[-] fraydabson@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah the lavender field was flooded with honey and bumble bees. So many lol but they were very active and didn’t sit long. Plus I was just using an iPhone lol

Lovely shot! I really like the colour composition, the colour scheme also kind of reminds me of old film

[-] WhippetBowie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've been posting a photo a day to Instagram for years. It's an unhealthy habit, but it's led me to be a little adventurous with color. Anyway glad it worked out this time.

I'm just shooting with a 18-50mm zoom lens!

I've been tempted to get a proper macro, but then I'd need to build a Flash diffuser out of a Pringles can 😂

You can wing it with magnifying lenses that screw on too. They're not the best but you can get some cool results.
