In my life, just like most of us, I’ve done a few things that have made me feel nerdy. right on top of my head just to mention a few have been, rooting my android phone and installing a custom ROM for the first time. Another, jailbreaking my iPhone 4 for the first time, installing themes, as well as weather widgets, and having to mess up with the p-list so it would work properly. Fixing my MacBook Pro after been “bricked”, sort to speak. Most recently, mapping the double tap on the back of my iPhone 11 functionality so launch the camera. This week, was “creating” and automation for when I plug my iPhone to a charger, it will speak “cheers” 😂

I know it’s silly but it brings me joy. Also, I chose “cheers” because it was the first thing in my mind when setting it up. I need something cooler 😎

Them vidjia games, especially on this last generation of consoles, have some sort of photo mode. Where you can freeze a moment in time, manipulate it, and have a nice “screenshot” basically. I have never been to keen for this particular feature in games until, Ghost of Tsushima.

And here is why.

If you read this blog, you are well aware of my fascination – or obsession – with Ghost of Tsushima. Currently, I am in my third play-through of the game, anxiously awaiting for the upcoming update. The game’s gorgeous, a lot of times I find myself just wondering around and admiring the scenery. The developers of this game have put to much work and it looks so amazing that it would be a crime not to marvel at it. This has made me dabble a little bit into the photo mode. Especially when I saw what these guys on twitter, also known as “virtual photographers”, are doing with these pictures. They are amazing and they’ve inspired me to make my own “virtual pictures” of this game.

Here are some of my favorite images for Twitter user The Fourth Focus;

It is impressive the amount of things you can do on this photo mode.

Another guy that’s making amazing virtual photography on this game, is Bedan Kimeira.

As I had mentioned, these guys are inspiring me to try to do my own thing. I definitely have much more to explore to get as close as these images.

Here are a few I had taken myself.

Still not even close, in my opinion but it is a lot of fun taking these snapshots and play with the settings to get this outstanding images.

I am not sure if it’s too much time on my hands at times or is it boredom or what, but I find myself fiddling too much with my site. By fiddling, I mean more like switching themes back and forth, usually between Marfa and Kiko, probably my two favorite theme templates available. I also like Hello a lot but “On this Day” doesn’t work on it and that’s kind of a deal-breaker.

I need to forget I have a blog! Just concentrate on posting and forget about how it looks. Realize that most people will read it – if the read at all – using an RSS reader. Thus, make me the only person in the world (I think) that cares about how my blog looks.

This morning I had switched my site to Marfa – again. Comeback by the end of the week and see what I got next.

Unless I take my own advice and forget I have it.
