Mainly irony and disappointment. Happen to like human rights and sanity. P.S. Term limits.

Mare Orientale in saturated colour taken by the crew during the flyby. This view was obtained looking almost straight down onto the basin.
This must be the most detailed colour view of it ever taken, and many interesting details are visible across it. The central Mare itself shows notable colour variations in its composition.
The colours seen here reveal composition. Blue areas mark titanium-rich basalt from ancient volcanic flows, common in the Moon’s maria. Red tones indicate lower titanium but higher iron content, often older lava or volcanic glass deposits. These colours help scientists map the Moon’s geological history and surface chemistry

These photos are a good reminder that Photographers argue about gear way more than history does.
Some people will cheer because they were shot on Nikon. Some will say they would’ve looked better on Sony. Some will say the astronauts should’ve taken a Hasselblad and it would have been perfect.
But that misses the point completely.
These images, Earth, the Moon, Earth setting behind the lunar horizon, a close-up of a crater, were made on a journey around the Moon with 10-year-old Nikon DSLRs.
And they’re stunning. And would have been stunning with a Lecia too, or a Canon, with similar focal lengths and sensor.
Because great photographs are rarely about having the newest camera. They’re about having the right tool, knowing how to use it, and being ready when the moment happens.
The brand didn’t make these images.
The age of the camera didn’t make these images.
The astronauts did.
Their eye, their preparation, their connection to what they were seeing, and their ability to use the gear they had in one of the most extraordinary places humans have ever gone.
Shoot, just hearing that they had proper shrouds over the windows and dimmed the lighting in the cabin to cut reflections, my photographer soul rejoiced! They thought through how to best capture the moments!
Yes, being in the right place at the right time matters. In a moment like this, it may matter more than anything.
But when that moment comes, what matters next is knowing your gear well enough to make the picture and being setup with the right gear to make it happen.
Not chasing the newest model.
Not arguing over logos.
Not pretending the camera is the artist.
Vision matters. Passion matters. Timing matters.
But when that moment comes, what matters next is knowing your gear well enough to make the picture and being set up with the right gear to make it happen. moment happens. (now let the silly camera model debates start...)

Well, while you may be struggling to put food on the table and pay the rent, Trumple Thinskin, was doing an internship as a car salesman for the guy who bought him the White House.
Oh and did I mention, it wasn’t really an internship, because reporting from the New York Times, Elon is providing another $100 billion for his political operation.
The economy is facing recession while the markets are in correction territory making 401k s drop, and Mad King Don is on Tesla Infomercial duty. You really could not make this shit up, and yet he does EVERY DAY.
Don’t worry though, SCOTUS has ensured he’s not breaking the emoluments clause no doubt.
