This is an old pic I snapped like four or five years ago of a bunny eating a leaf. I added a Kodachrome 200 sim to it.

Wow. I didn't see it in the back at first and thought I was losing my mind...

Is that flamingo covered in blood, or have I been watching too much horror?

No, it's just worn out by being exposed to the elements for a long time.

Too much horror, then. Got it.

I’m not going to stop.

Someone needs to feed that flamingo some shrimp, it's almost with again.

This is amazing. You were learning photography but didn't understand the lens? Trying to build a nice composition and thought you'd zoom in later with lightroom? What was it you were trying to do when you clicked the shot?

I was actually using an FD lens adapted to a Micro 4/3 camera at the time, a Canon FD 70-210mm f4 lens to be exact, and was new to running manual glass then, I just thought it was a cute shot.

Prior to getting my first ILC, an Olympus E-M5, which sadly has since died of a stuck shutter, I was using a cheap Cybershot (which I put back into service as a backup and I'm presently using it until I can get the sensor for the E-M5's replacement, a Panasonic GF2, cleaned).

And to be fair, that cheap Cybershot, an H300, really isn't that bad for what it is other than the fact that it's fully autofocus and it doesn't support shooting in raw formats and is limited to JPEGs only.
