How do I make my photos look less flat? I don’t know if I’m just going crazy but I feel like nothing in my photos looks as tall as it did in real life. Maybe less so in the first photo, but in the second photo the drop to the water was at least 10 feet and the water was also at least 10 feet deep.

Big fat electrical box — no room for feet on long Lufthansa flight I flew on Lufthansa from Munich back to the East Coast. I opted for coach to save a few hundred dollars. Big mistake. The plane was one of those ginormous double decker things that carries 500+ passengers, and of course, every seat was filled. I got to my seat “upstairs” in row 96, and was dismayed to find a large metal electrical box permanentl…
