Yeah right, next you’re gonna tell me that Irish spring soap isn’t infused with leprechauns.

Thank you so much! I'm having a lot of fun with this and it means so much when people say something like this!

This is one of my favorite omelettes to make!

1: I first put some butter (enough to coat whatever pan you're using) in a pan and set it to low to melt it, I take 4 eggs (could be however many you want) and beat them in a cup/bowl/whatever, before pouring into the pan and setting to medium-low.

2: While the eggs are still liquid, I sprinkle some cheese into the raw eggs (specifically before they've hardened at all, I guess you could add the cheese while it's in the cup but I like to see the distribution in the pan), and then I'll add a few spices/herbs I find in my pantry, this usually consists of paprika, cayenne powder, oregano, garlic powder, and ground black pepper.

3: While the eggs cook, slice a green onion (scallion) into small pieces.

4: Once the eggs are firm and pass the jiggle test (lightly shake the pan by the handle and see if anything is still jiggling, if yes, keep cooking, if no, you're ready!), put on the sliced green onion/scallion and sprinkle as much cheese as desired on top. Wait for the cheese to melt.

5: Fold the omelette with whatever method you like, flip it a few times to make sure both sides are cooked well, optionally add more toppings, and you're done!

First, that’s a really good idea, I’m gonna edit all of my posts in a little bit To have all that information.

Second, I seeee, I have to admit that most of the time I just shoot with a wide aperture and call it a day, I should really start composing with intention.

Thanks for the feedback! You should totally post something!

I’m so sorry you can’t really see the picture, but that’s really interesting!

SOUND THE ALARMS

This is pretty damn cool

That’s a good point, maybe I’ll hav to stop after 100 or something small like that

Ah, of course, I'll do my best to not lose my ambition

Yeah! I figured this could be a way for me to give back to the community, y'know, stop lurking and everything. In addition, I get to share one of my hobbies with everyone here! (And learn probably a shit ton of stuff)

I was just looking stuff up as well and found darktable, which seems to work well, but I feel like I'm doing something wrong, what exactly should I be using darktable for? I'll have to explore GIMP and Affinity, as I don't have any experience with them.

Thanks for all the feedback! It is greatly appreciated.

Interestinnggggg, RAW files seem like they're 4-6 times as large as the jpegs I was taking before, so not awful, but definitely big!

I'm not sure what made you think I can't change my aperture smaller, I absolutely can! That lens kit looks just like the one I'm using, though I also have another one that's EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6.

And no worries, it's not like you had any idea what my background is.

something to do with a “crop” APS-C sensor, so there’s the whole “Actual F number” vs. “Effective F number if had a full sensor”

Interesting, I'm guessing the real aperture is F/7.4, since that would make more sense with the depth of field.

I’m guessing you have access to Canon’s Digital Photo Professional for free

Unfortunately not, I'm using Linux, and it looks like DPP only supports Windows and MacOS, do you know any similar apps I could use?

But anyway, higher F numbers soften the sharpness of the “best” parts of the photo, in exchange for “OK” focus over a greater depth, and loss of brightness.

Yeahhh, I do know the basics of photography, I took two digital photography classes when I was in high school, but that was a little while ago now. From my current understanding, aperture corresponds to the diameter of the shutters as you take a picture, with a lower aperture, more light is gathered from all focus levels, so only the light around the target is discernable. Shutter speed is simply how long the shutter stays open to gather light. ISO is how sensitive the sensor is.

Edit: Whoaaaa just tried taking pictures as RAW+jpeg (it takes both at the same time) so I could compare side by side and wow RAW looks incredible

I believe this was taken at f/13 or f/7.4 (difference between F number and Aperture value?) with 1/13 s shutter speed and iso 800, so I definitely had some room to mess with the lighting. I'll have to keep that in mind for the future!

I'm hoping to get to at least a week, my memory's not that bad, right?

The only thing I can think of that would get it that high is things like mayo, but that still seems way too high.

Mannn I can’t read that

Probably! Thank you so much for the feedback! I’m still a super beginner at photography, especially with dslrs, so I’m definitely still getting used to adjusting the camera irt.

Thank you! For these photos I used a Canon EOS Rebel T2i with a zoomable 18-55 mm f/4-5.6 lens, but I also have a 55-250 mm lens I could’ve used (and have used for past photos)

I don’t really know what information is important about the lenses, they’re both canon brand, and are “EFS” no idea if that means anything. Let me know if you want me to give you any more specifics!

I think everything I’m using is like 13 (?) years old, and if you look reeeeeaaaally closely around the top left and middle bottom you can see some red dots where the sensor is failing, there’s also some bluish purple spots around but they’re very hard to see.
