Mandatory flower photo.
I'm having trouble deciding to which community I should publish my post to. OCD? The City of Neoxian? Creative Coin? I've been going through photos that I took yesterday at Jyväskylä with my camera (not smartphone like the photos in the previous posts but Sony A6400) but the more I look at the photos the more I think they are bad and I have no idea what I was thinking when I took the photos. It's an agony to try to take photos when in company because I constantly have the horrible feeling that people around me are terribly bored and would just want me to stop and follow them or talk with them.
So not sure if it's okay to publish this post in photography related community. People there might come and start throwing stones at me. For posting ridiculously bad photos.
But have to choose something.

I also had trouble deciding what to do with the photos. As usual. Post-processing is a pain in the ass when the photo isn't awesome to begin with or when I want to maintain the natural look in it. Should I crop it more or not at all? Should I make it black and white or try something that makes the photo look older/weirder/funkier/dreamlike? Should I make it darker or lighter? Should I just pick one color or make everything little bit unsaturated? More greeny shadows, less purplish highlights? More or less contrast? Where's the focus?
And after 5 hours with 6 photos, the result is almost the same what I started with because everything that I tried was too much or too different and looked false or too weird or just worse than the original.
Mandatory artsy photo. No-one has never ever photographed woody pier and water. Not mandatory reflection photo though.
Eventually I did make decisions. Because I have to if I want to publish anything. Because I don't want to, again, not publish because I think everything that I have is just nonpublishable material. Been there, done that too many times. Started to edit photos, wasted my time and ended up with nothing because decided to throw them all in the bin. Or started to write stuff but lost my confidence or thoughts or concentration and started to think that my thoughts are stupid and juvenile or boring and ended up questioning my whole existence in this world.
"Why am I doing this? Does anyone even care? Why did I rise from my bed this morning? Why do I tap tap tap and click click click the keyboard? Me publishing this has zero effect on anything so why bother? Why do I live, am I even alive, what is the point of all this if I have never been born, why does the earth revolve, why space exists, should I just stop breathing?"

Ended up publishing.
This time.

So this is what Jyväskylä looks like through my camera lens. I wonder how did the sailboat in the last two photos look like trough
