Don’t intend for this to be condescending, but: I’ve reached the conclusion that AI-assisted photo culling is shit. These tools cannot account for artistry or aesthetics; they simply do not “understand” the images they’re evaluating. #photography

1/2 I was in the garden at night, thought the flowers looked sort of ghostly and dreamy, tried to take a picture with my phone and it came out black. So I tried the Android “Night Vision” thing…
Which was OK. But then I wondered if the first apparently-all-black version had actually captured anything.
So…

I arrived at the Sprint Football game against Navy at halftime when Cornell was down 40-0.
The second half was an entirely different game where Cornell shut out Navy and Cornell's № 89 Cooper Patterson scored a touchdown despite № 32 T.J. Silvernale of the Midshipmen.

So this Monday I made an expedition to Monkey Run; there are two sections that are inaccessible by walking trails so I got a new pair of water shoes to attempt traversal of the first section
