For industrial subjects especially, I usually end up preferring the most straightforward and boring perspective I can find that just lets the subject speak for itself. The masters of this approach were Bernd and Hilla Becher, whose "Basic Forms" work richly repays your attention if you like this kind of stuff. https://www.sfmoma.org/artist/Bernd_and_Hilla_Becher/
(They would have undoubtedly waited for an overcast day to shoot Big Allis, but I liked the clouds.)
@[email protected] That's currently a 404 link.
@[email protected] Hm, I'm seeing the page when I clock on it. No idea why you aren't.
@[email protected] Yeah, see @[email protected] reply above. That was the fix --> click the link not the 'preview link' (which didn't work). No worries.
@[email protected] @[email protected] Interesting. Yeah, I just saw that. But when I click either the preview or the inline link, it works for me. Must be something to do with instance-specific preview generation, making this sort of stuff very hard to debug!
@[email protected] @[email protected] I think you are correct in how the link is processed per-instance. Not something you would need to debug. Just another side note as we traverse the Mastodoniverse!
