Possibly… The ones I’ve had do that, they still taste fine, but I have to time the roast by smell, color, gut feel, instead of my usual “x length of time after 1C is rolling” or whatever. I’m not an expert! But yeah, some bags I’ve had, they crack quieter than others. And over the sound of the roaster, hard to tell…

Could it just be these beans have a quiet first crack? I feel like I’ve noticed that with some. (I use a modified popcorn popper btw.) Like, 1C will be a barely audible crackle for some beans. (I never go to 2C; can’t comment on that.)

Or, perfectly placed sun, directly opposite the center of the circle the rainbow would make…

That’s a scary sidewalk. Nice pic!

Awesome. I like how mysterious it is, like something from a video game.

Whoa, never heard of this thing til now. I just looked it up. I’m surprised such a small thing can do that. Are you enjoying it so far? Your photo is great.

Ah! I knew I was missing something!

Well did you follow the timeless directions of “RUB HANDS UNDER ARM HAIR” followed by “STOP AUTO AT ALLY” ?

Where was this taken?

I feel so seen. :D

Also, username checks out!

Ah the wanking shed that Gizmo eventually moves into :D

Oh you’re right. If I tilt my laptop so that the horizon is flat, it’s not as steep. (but still… too steep for me.)

amazing pic!!

Beautiful colors!

I love how it transfers from pink/goodvibes/pokemon to CALL-OF-DUTY/GIANT-FUCKING-REDBULL

Very cool – I’ve never heard of that technique but it makes sense, and I can see it working here. I love those more artsy types of edits, like dodging/burning, where you’re not just clicking a global slider…

Oh, sick! I had a D7000 for a good while. I think I looked at the 11-16, but eventually went for a Sigma 12-24 after I got a D800 (my current kit, which I don’t use enough lately…). Anyway, great pic. Looks like maybe you did an Orton effect kinda thing on it in post…?

great pic!! What did you shoot it on?

Damn, that’s amazing!
