I found this HDR composite photo made of seven exposures from 1/2 sec to 1/8000 sec, thought it's pretty cool.

Aa am ii a talented photographer?

Kind of funny how intentionally fucking up film exposure is considered the better aesthetic now

Why is nodal ninja so massively overpriced? It's just a fucking bracket.

I was kinda surprised to see that the D-LUX 8 is just a rebadged Panasonic LX100M2 from 2018 with the only exception being that it has 1/2000 max shutter speed vs 1/4000 on the LX100M2 so in a way a slight downgrade.
Intredastingly Panasonic also just anounced the TZ99 which is just a rebadged TZ90 where they have removed the viewfinder and added a tilt-screen and swapped the micro usb port for a usb-c one.

How easy is it to get a white background like this? Is this literally just something like this https://www.amazon.com/GFCC-Polyester-Photography-Background-Graduation/dp/B07FXJN5L1 ? Anything I should know if I want a very similar texture to pic related? I'll be shooting this in my room (moving my bed out). I have a large window on one side and a wall on the other. Would it be best to block natural light with blackout curtains and instead focus on actual professional lights?

Lastly what makes this picture so good beyond the subject? Is it all post processing? Pic related just seems so detailed. It's really cool.

Im a beginner and looking to shoot some promo images. Photographers in my area have been pissing me off so I'm just going to do this myself. I have a unlimited budget (not actually, but I can invest big if I can get something cool). I'll be using a Canon R8 with a Canon RF35mm. In the end I'll probably just experiment, but some low hanging fruit tips are appreciated.

Post your stupid questions that don't deserve their own threads here and yes this is engagement bait.

Anyone use pro photos and try to recreate them?
