Lol, it's ok I figured. I understand your issues and accept them, no apology required. I reiterate so that others don't read what you wrote and latch onto the idea.

I have a lightbox, a super-cheap one my girl-human got for me. It's been fun to see how it works. I may do a post about it someday if I'm scratching around for something to write about, which never happens. Lol.

Keep plugging away at that camera, you're doing the same thing I did, experimenting.

I was only saying the other night, whilst looking through some images from one of my trips to Europe, goddamn it I was terrible at taking photos.

There's poor composition, horizons on an angle/slant, thumbs in the images and just about every other heinous photographic error one could conceive...but I learned I am learning. You'll get there, and will get better and better each time.
