Anyone else using Arc web browser? I’ve just spent a few hours discovering it this morning, and it’s like having a new computer!!
Its layout also encourages visiting saved websites too, rather than finding everything through a search engine or Web 2.0.
It’s definitely gonna boost productivity.

Yeah, I’m looking forward to more of that this Autumn. If you look closely you can also see it’s a marsh. Capturing this one image was a little micro adventure of its own.

2024-09-07 08:19:07

Moody mornings in the mountains are what it’s all about. Away from the crowds, finding solace, seeking adventure.

Feeling peaceful today having spent only 5 minutes on Twitter (replying to a post from @npub1lr2…dl6a) and zero time on Instagram.
So here is a nice long exposure, of sunset on the Yorkshire Coast, to relay that feeling.

Sharing my work on Nostr feels like the early days of sharing on Flickr. It's fun, it's exciting receiving even a single like, and the responses feel meaningful.

Does anyone know why this video is not playing on zap stream? I published on Flare and used a vimeo link.

2024-09-03 14:30:19

- reply

Hmmm. That maybe something on the Vimeo side of things. Doesn’t seem to be rendering the video.

2024-09-03 14:03:28

- reply

My videos are generally in the 4-6GB range. I host them on my website using Vimeo. Flare lets me just paste the Vimeo share link and it rendered the video.
Native uploads to Flare seem limited to 2GB and are hosted pay-as-you-go on an AWS server.

Ah ok. I might need to change it then. I was reluctant to put my private key into the browser. I must have used a different key through Albi.

Yeah. Although I did it through the Albi browser plugin.

I run it on a remote server, eg lunanode or voltage.
I used to have a private channel linked to my own node that provided the liquidity. That was clunky though so now I just have it linked to a custodial service like Blink or Strike and it works seamlessly. When I receive payments I then just transfer the sats back to my own non-custodial solution.
I then created a subdomain on my website btcpay.yourwebsite.com and point the btc server to that. BTC pay Server have a Wordpress plugin that adds BTCpay as a payment option.
I’m not that technical so it just took a bit of tinkering and persistence to get it to work. BTCPay server have some good tutorials.
With Nostr, it’s a bit of bitcoin chat room at the moment. But I’m just gonna keep posting photographs until it’s not and the community widens.

Thank you so much. Yeah, I knew the frame had to be black to match the cast iron fireplace.

Recently started making my own frames so, as the photographer, I am responsible for every single stage of the creative process and final piece.
Here we have pine, finished with Indian Ink followed by a satin hard wax oil.
This size is particularly good with the A2 borderless print. Still work to be done perfecting my mat cutting skills. But very close!!

Loving these Otter photos. In my experience, they’re extremely difficult to find and photograph, so very impressive. 👍🏼

Ever considered printing your photographs to make genuinely meaningful pieces of artwork?
In this video I drag a massive printer up a big hill to prove why printing matters.

A cheeky bit of light, some interesting clouds, and a mountain backdrop make superb ingredients for a landscape photograph. If cooked right, you don’t even need colour.

Just realised, since changing my domain linked to Nostr, all my previous posts now don’t show the pictures.
Seems like a good opportunity to share a few again.
Hope you like this one from the Yorkshire Coast in the UK. And don’t get rekt out there!!

One of the things I love about bitcoin is it connects the digital world to the physical world. Very much how physical prints reconnect photography to the physical world.
Got an epic video coming out on my YouTube channel, “First Man Photography” Sunday at 6pm BST, where you can buy this 1 of 1 print with bitcoin……if you’re quick…….. before someone buys it with fiat!!

The signature image from my latest video. I'm chuffed with this one; the mood perfectly matches my experience of the day. I initially thought the ships on the horizon were going to be a problem when, in fact, they made the photograph.

Includes a story about a veteran who suffers PTSD, and had attempted suicide, was saved by discovering a love for landscape photography.

Here are two variations of the exact same image. First is the original. Second one, I made it look polluted in about 10 seconds flat. It takes a bit longer with video but it’s easily done.

Can we have a Nostr/Bitcoin version of eBay please.
Used it for the first time in years this week, sold a few items and now eBay have the funds ‘on hold’ for various irrelevant reasons, including to ensure the buyer is satisfied.
As transactions go, it feels bloody awful.

As a bitcoiner in the photography space, I often feel isolated like this tree. So many others shitcoining with NFTs or blinded by environmental FUD.
To be honest, it feels good. Nostr gives me a warm fuzzy feeling too.
