I chased this storm up close, through sunset colors last night in New Mexico. It decided to do the boltfest in the rearview mirror, way after I left it 🤣 . Beautiful nonetheless
I’m sad there’s no shooting tonight , but extremely happy I didn’t commit to the long azz drive to the original location I had in mind. I think an early night is in order. Good luck to those toughing it out
I find it particularly perverse when hyper political accounts with obvious agendas steal off topic viral footage to boost their engagement. Creators need to have a choice in whose voice they amplify. @nikitabier , shut down off platform reuploads by political accounts
@libertylaneview I think I’ve grown faster / more organically by being the sole source of my images. I see no bumps after big collaborations or big accounts ‘sharing’. So I’m staying true to this ethos with very few exceptions
@MorEdge_Insight ‘Massive credit to Pecos Hank’? It’s 100% credit you dipshit. You ripped his work and posted on X. He didn’t even post it on X . Idiot
@PaulKnightley Yeah thanks. There are several pages like this. They fed my real image into an AI generator and this was the result. They aren’t photographers just scammers
If it’s not dealt with, it will become the same as the video of the young girl with the meteor overhead that was stolen hundreds of times two years ago and still replays
This incredible video -maybe one of the best- has been a great source of income and algorithm boosting for numerous cretinous , lecherous, and unethical accounts this week. The owner is granting me the right to deal with the legal DMCA process . This will be fun.
