Polite Reminder - loli
Just a quick reminder: loli is specifically banned in our CoC.
We would like to ask our users report any instance of loli or general affirmative discussions of loli.
In the West (especially ultra conservative jurisdictions) simply showing implicit support of loli can cause a HUGE amount of LEGAL TROUBLE for an individual. It can also quickly result in a user being placed on a Sex Offenders Registry or Child Molestation Registry.
Please be mindful.

Sunshine: Please take this discussion to an instance other than photog.social and untag accounts here from future posts.
Our instance does NOT condone loli and is hosted/admin'd from jurisdictions where loli is VERY ILLEGAL.
As a precaution for our users and staff any further discussion will be considered a violation of our CoC.

Well, I like the FF aliteration, a simple catchy trick that proved success on social net.
Everyone will add the #photo anyway so that should be OK
Lets see how the others think about that?
We visited the Living Desert Sculpture Garden this afternoon. It's about 5km or so north of Broken Hill. I was hoping to be able to stay until after dark for some milky way shots, but the gates close at 18:30 which meant that wasn't going to happen.
Also, it was very exposed and blowing 35-40kph winds.
The sculptures themselves were built by Intl artists in 1993 for a Sculpture Symposium and are situated on a small hill with 360º views.
Very excited to have captured a photo of one of these guys.
It's a Splendid fairy-wren. While we get Superb fairy-wren's at home, these guys don't come that far north or east, and are so much prettier.

I'm on board with #FotoFail
Just need to know what the right tag is and I'll do my best to make sure others are aware 😉
after discussing it a bit it seems to be cool but hard to maintain on the long run as a weekly rendez-vous
So launching a #FotoFail hashtag with a weekly photo challenge could be cool maybe ?

@ambassador I like the last, #FridayPhotoFails :D
@WelshPixie @david @madcam @mancavgeek @WeeklyPhotoChallenge @NFGphoto @Curator @Sebastian @ambassador I like on one hand I just love friday fails. on other hand there already is the fediverse/followfriday so it might get mixed up in it. :)
@ambassador @Sebastian @eylul @Curator @WeeklyPhotoChallenge @mancavgeek @david @WelshPixie @NFGphoto I suggested spelling it as "foto" purely for the alliteration, but either way works.

I like #FridayPhotoFails (or without the S is fine too). We don't have a massive character limit, no need for a shorter, weirdly spelled tag.
@NFGphoto @ambassador @WelshPixie @david @madcam @mancavgeek @WeeklyPhotoChallenge @Curator @eylul Either tag works for me. I have 100s of Gb of failed shots 😅
Quick poll

Which would be the 'best' for showcasing failed #Photo and #Photography work? We are hoping to start a trend of photographers showing off some of their failures.
We would like to encourage others to jump in on the photography train and really want them to know that even 'great photographers' fail too 😉

Today's adventure saw us on the edge of the Mundi Mundi Plain in outback New South Wales. A vast expanse of red dirt and salt bush, and this little fellow, an Echidna.

I present to you, the Hay Plains. Possibly the most boring landscape you will ever see.
