I love it! What great pictures!

I'm not a photographer either but I enjoy the process of taking pictures.

The ones I liked the most are 2 and 6. I still have a lot more to learn about this world than you, but it fascinates me and little by little I'm learning. I also inherited this taste from my grandfather, but at that time digital cameras were not used.

Enjoying and learning, that's what I like.

I loved the publication Galenkp, thank you!

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. I knew the title was a pun and a very cool one. I always wanted to know what did you use for those amazing photos you take. Mystery solved!

I guess that you can get good at photography as you keep pointing your camera at something and start getting creative to do the shoots. Besides, no one sees the mistakes and you can erase them withouts wasting any film.

I've always thought you're using phone, possibly a high end phone, because your pictures were so clear.
The two major common camera here are Cannon and Nikon, I'm not sure I've seen an Olympus before. They looks great though 

That is some really nice equipment. You do real good work for having no formal training at all IMO. I know very little about photography other than what I can remember from my military training in the early 90's. That isn't much other than point, center the subject, and shoot. I was trained on the Nikonus IV and V way back then. They were nice rugged 35mm cameras for their time. May need to dig up our digital camera up out of the closet. It is nothing to brag about, but may start putting it to use and see what I can do with it.

I really like the lightbox and I have a cheap one too, but, it does what it needs to do without much fanfare. How did you get it to pump up and isolate the blue color? I think you do great with your pictures. You are patient and willing to keep at it until it gives you what you want. 

I find most people have more equipment than they know what to do with.

The 60mm is such a nice lens with its capabilities and lightness. I think they are sharp as a tack and you can really get up close and personal. I think you use the equipment you have just fine, no need for the disclaimer.  ;) 

This is a great set up of equipment. I read the headline and laughed because I knew you were poking fun. 

I like the lighting effect you got in your lenses with the light ring. I took some photos of my gear last week when I cleaned all my equipment, but I'm definitely not going to post them now, they are all very shit in comparison 🤣

So now I can understand why your macro shots are so amazing. Your macro lens has a big aperture. Nice. You certainly do get phenomenal pics. 

Awesome light rings on the lenses brother. I thought everything was black and white at first but the rings showed up in color, very impressed.
Your intro line made me laugh. I again laughed at girl-person, lol, WTF kind of name is that?

You have never admitted to being awesome with the camera,  it is a great thing to be a pro and still be humble.

I don't know much about cameras but these are good gadgets judging by the quality of images you have posted on Hive. The name Olympus sounds familiar but not for devices, people are obsessed with canon here and I think it's really expensive.

>I'm only on Hive so don't use them on social media; I take them for me, for fun, and fun is what I have.

And that in a nutshell is what it is all about.

So glad you did not say "in a nutsack".

I heard that rumour round the Hive that You have some pretty nice equipment. Now I can agree. I would like to see a photo of that camera with a shoulder strap ***"Well Hung"*** around your strong masculine shoulder... Heheheh![untitled.gif](https://media.tenor.com/qUtk6nHANm4AAAAC/biz-nasty-hung.gif)

I hauled a load of scrap metal in to recycle a week or so back. You should have seen all the people who...

Stopped to L👀k at ***MY JUNK!*** 😂🤣😂
