A finisher in Tulsa handed me his edger and told me to feel the slab before I touched a float, and I've done it ever since

Man, Ray sounds like the real deal!

Appreciation post: my lab scans looked flat until I switched to one-hour photo at the drugstore on 5th

Honestly flat scans usually mean the mail order lab crushed your shadows, not saved the highlights.

The prompt 'write a letter you'll never send' broke me open at 2am

Write em and keep em. The second you write one on purpose as a warm up it turns into a chore and the good stuff stops coming. Let the stack grow, then maybe reread em in a year and see what your brain was hiding.

DAE get told your AI art looks like 'a machine ate a paint store'? A guy named Ray at the Des Moines meetup said that to my face

Had the same thing happen with my guitar playing years back, some old guy at a open mic told me I was hiding behind effects pedals instead of just learning to play clean. He was right and it took me a while to admit it. Sometimes the tool gets blamed for stuff that's really just missing basics.

Saw a guy at the camera swap in Toledo clean a lens with a cut up t-shirt and it worked better than my $25 kit

Waited, he really put lighter fluid on a shutter blade?
