The Pros and (Mostly) Cons of Upgrading to a 4K Monitor

I'm in the process of getting back into photography which will mean a new camera, more on that in a later post.

Along with the computer comes a new 4K monitor. 4K is great for media consumption, right? Your characters on your favorite show or movie really look detailed and realistic. Scenery looks wonderful. Everything looks great, right? Wrong. You know what doesn't look great? That photo I took in 2012 that I thought was sharp but is very much not. I transferred over my past catalogs of photos over to Lightroom Classic and eagerly began opening up some of my favorite photos. At first I was happy with how the colors looked and how the scene was composed. Then I noticed it was a little soft. Well I had just gotten a new contacts prescription so that must be it.

At work with the new guy, and holy cow I love this green. I'm not loving the strap or possibly the strap/deployant clasp combo. Guess I'm going strap shopping @bartonbands

I've missed this guy. 2 weeks ago his battery died and after looking around town for I've I ended up doing what I should have dinner from the beginning, order from Amazon.

This Certina DS-4 has been the surprise purchase of 2020 🌊. Looks great on the bracelet or on a warm leather. #NoBracelet

The Citizen Pointer Date. The Citizen Minute Repeater. The Citizen BL9000-59F. At least it's not "the Chandler" or whatever Citizen is using to babe their watches. Today's #NoBracelet entry.

It's been a crazy day, I'm lucky I got this shot. The Air Race on a blue strap for day 4 of my #NoBracelet challenge. Comfortable and makes the blue on the dial pop.
