Everlane is a solid choice. They focus on styles that are timeless and well constructed so you can shop less. I have clothes I bought from them 7 or 8 years ago that I still get complimented on wearing and look fantastic. I find them affordable - but I realize that won’t be for everyone.

Or yam. I feel like the texture of the outside is more consistent with yam. But then again - it feels like there isn’t consistent descriptions of the differences.

 

I took this photo of my dog on a beach. It’s always been a favorites, but I feel like it’s audience might be limited because it isn’t a cute photo of a dog. I’d love to hear feedback. Just for kicks, here’s an alternative version of the crop. It tells a really different story:

Your usage is more traditionally correct. Typographers and writers agree that the use of exclamation marks (also referred to as ‘bang’ or ‘screamer’) should be done sparingly.

But with so much informal (digital) communication, it’s taken on a new life as an indicator of friendliness.

Unlike the Germans, who have international government agreements that change the rules of their written language, English simply evolves with the next crop of teenage whims.

Which may be another way of saying that while you are correct, your wife is more hip.

 

Taken four years ago in Melbourne during the White Night Festival on my iPhone.

The photo is cropped just a little at the bottom to keep a few additional buildings out. Then desaturated and cooled a little.

 

It’s been several decades since I’ve opened my photography up for critique. I was a photography major back in the day and gave it up as a professional track so i could feed and house myself. I now really only share my photos with three friends. But there isn’t much in the way of actionable feedback - I’d love to hear your thoughts.

This photo was taken on a piece of white paper under a skylight on a cloudy day with my iPhone. I made a few small edits to bring the reds out (such a hard color to get right in digital photography).
