waiting for low tide

I Don’t think I could stop drawing, even if I tried.

✖︎ a horror game in which every creature fucking hates you ✖︎

this is from an r/productphotography thread where everybody was trying to convince a small business owner not to photograph their own icecreams. because they had been previously buying printed images of somebody else's icecreams (??), but the other person said they couldn't use the images on their website because they'd get stolen. so they got a $2400 quote from a photographer and this is one of the proofs, where they used a cone stand and photoshopped it out. you can kind of see where the cone changes color, not that it matters. but anyway i think it's really uncanny. like it's just hovering. they must have used at least four lights to do this. it's a 99 cent vanilla soft serve, which probably costs $5 in today's economy. everyone is saying "$2400 is a reasonable quote for photographing icecream" but like. is it...? i'm not trying to suggest photography should pay less but i am asking, do you really need high resolution icecream photos when you're not even an icecream shop? i don't know. i'm declaring bankruptcy to commit tax fraud. so i may not be the best person to ask. but i think this is what captain ahab hallucinated when he was hunting for moby cock. imagine you're on the ocean and the only vers bottom is fucking ishmael or whatever and you look up and see this. hovering. i'd go insane with the harpoon too
