Guy I got hired with got a call years ago. They were sent to a "traumatic injury". Ole boy working on the front end of his car, with it just on a jack. It came off and landed on his legs. It had him mashed to the garage floor, but not the whole weight of the car on him. He was just stuck. He was talking to the guys from the engine and ambulance, calm and embarrassed. My friend looked about 8 feet from the car, and saw two brand new jack stands, sitting on a shelf.

He said "what are you doing saving these? Don't want to wear them out?"
Reminds me of a local auto shop teacher that was killed (late 70's). Had a car up on four, yes four, bumper jacks. Can't make that shit up.

I assume this is a measurement of "brightness". No further questions, your honor. 🙂
A close friend of mine would travel around the country to attend certain events every year, and stayed in the same hotels. He would take his own lightbulbs because the (cheap) hotels he stayed at used the lowest power ones you could imagine.

Just turn the light switch off, problem solved.

I don't see the light messing with this one

Alright let’s explain light and shadow to multiple adults.

Both of hers are in the shadow, other than a sliver of natural light on one that makes it look darker do to more shadow. The lady before that he’s talking about has a harsh man made light shining directly on one side and nothing on the other to create a large difference between light and shadow. They may not be perfectly the same color but without the harsh light they would be pretty much the same if not exactly the same. I guess her skins actually darker in the shadows as well lol

I’ve never done photography once but how light works isn’t wizardry.

Non-matching areolas and nips. Can’t have that. Kick her out of bed.
I know this is a joke, but feel strangely compelled to answer.

The Case of the Unlike Areolae was due to lighting that was too constrasty for the camera’s sensor. In this case, it looks like the photog exposed for the shadows and therefore blew out the highlights.

Your eye has much more contrast range (aka dynamic range) than a camera, either film or digital.

With digital cameras, it’s better to expose for the highlights like we did in the old slide film days.

With negative film one tends to expose for the shadows, that way the print (equivalent to a finished product like a slide or digital pic) is exposed correctly.

I, evenly more strangely that I ever imagined, feel compelled to reply. If that were the case, the Case of the Unlike Areolae could have been fixed by reducing the white level in Photoshop

That said, it WAS a joke
