It’s the 2nd gen version and while I love the design and colors, it’s a bit thick for a 38mm and yet looks a bit small on my 7.5” wrist. The newest generation is slightly thinner so I believe it would look better proportionally. Otherwise I’m happy to have it as part of my collection.
Today is #WorldPhotographyDay and I'm posting up a photo of my mom because we sadly lost her suddenly two days ago on Sunday. I miss you and I love you, Mama. #mother #mom
It’s been a crappy week but I was at least able to enjoy #StrangeNewWorlds. Great episode to give some background and context to Kirk before becoming captain. Paul Wesley knocked it out of the park with his performance and I’m glad it ended on a darker tone. #StarTrek #SNW #tvsky #CaptainKirk

Thanks so much, things are looking better but they still suck at the moment

Ugh I can’t say I’m surprised there’s people like that but c’mon man wtf
Back tomorrow again for another #BlueSkyMonday! Get ready to break out those blues!
Makes sense, unfortunately most of the requests and InMail I get are from people who are clearly trying to sell me or my company something, and it often shows they haven't even bothered to do any research on me or my company before reaching out. It just comes across as lazy and ill-prepared.
My feed isn't quite that bad, but it definitely is bad. I think part of what helps is only accepting connections from people I actually know/have met, rather than "growing my network" from random requests. I do get a ton of InMail spam though who can't even get my name correct. That's annoying.

Looking for some great, chill music for while you're working? @lilypichu.bsky.social's new piano album is perfect for it. Piano-only versions of some her best songs are great to have playing when you need to GSD. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyah... (It's on Spotify too!) #musicsky #piano #LilyPichu
Love seeing the moon in this shot!
Thanks, Robyn!
A 20-sec exposure of Mt. Rainier from Point Defiance back in 2021. Had to use my 10-stop ND filter for this one in broad daylight! #Stunday #MtRainier #Tahoma #longexposure #clouds #seascape #Tacoma #landscapephotography #mountain #EastCoastKin #stormhour #photographersunited #Nikon #Z7 #ArminPhoto
Gorgeous, Robyn!
Sounds annoying but fun at the same time!
Thanks! Hope the trip is going well!

I love how using a long lens causes compression and makes Haystack Rock look immense, giving a feeling of megalophobia. #Jagged #BlueSkyArtShow #megalophobia #haystackrock #rocks #oregon #monochrome #classicmono #cannonbeach #EastCoastKin #stormhour #photographersunited #Nikon #Z7 #ArminPhoto
Speaking of the BR mode, they've really gotta knock this one out of the park. I'd love it if we got something more along the lines of PUBG rather than Fortnite or Warzone, where you have to look for attachments. I just don't know how that'll work without a backpack system (or maybe they'll add it)
I’ve seen complaints about weapon tweaking but I’d say overall it’s mostly balanced. The shotgun definitely needs some nerfing but otherwise I’m loving how the attachment system is working. It’s simple yet effective. I’m curious if/how this will play a role in the battle royale mode.
I’m loving the destruction as well, but I’m also looking forward to larger “levelutions” that we saw in BF4 and BF1. I’d say that BF1 is still the best for the cinematic, immersive experience but so far BF6 is definitely better for this than BF2042 and BF5.
The beta maps are good for getting new/CoD players into it, but I’m itching for the huge, expansive BF maps like we had in BF4 and BF1. I miss the long range sniping and getting those crazy 1500m+ headshots.
My friends and I were top squad in the vast majority of games we played last night. Imagine playing the objectives and actually racking up points and kills? It was awesome being on the MG while my friend drove the tank and we had an engineer repairing us the whole time. Battlefield perfection.
I’ve been loving the #Battlefield6 beta so far. I was fortunate enough to be part of BF Labs for alpha testing and the beta is miles ahead of it. It’s about as polished any beta has been in recent years and while it still needs some fixes, it’s a ton of fun. #bf6 #bf6beta #xbox #gaming #videogames

Damn, this latest episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds was nuts! It genuinely gave me the creeps 😲 Season 3 continues to deliver. #startrek #strangenewworlds #stsnw #tvsky

We only rate dogs. This is the goth cousin of Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc. Please understand it's not just a phase, and only send dogs. Thank you… 12/10 (credit u/vincidelaunc)

Thanks so much!
Oops #gratitude haha
I'm also #grateful for macro lenses, so that I can get close-up shots of spiders and other bugs without having to get super close to them lol #BlueSkyArtShow #spider #arachnid #macro #macrophotography #spiderweb #EastCoastKin #photohour #photographersunited #Nikon #Z8 #ArminPhoto
Finally published on my blog after months of neglect! I still think I want to move away from WordPress though... www.arminausejo.com/whale-watchi... #whalewatching #humpbackwhales #vancouver #britishcolumbia #canada #EastCoastKin #photohour #photographersunited #Nikon #Fujifilm #ArminPhoto
Which also makes me grateful for everyone I've met here on BlueSky, especially for all the help and encouragement from @jaycee-visionlogic.bsky.social, @lorettarobinson.bsky.social, @alinagrafik.bsky.social, @handcranked.bsky.social, and countless others!
Side note, this photo is actually the original background for #BlueSkyMonday!
I'm so grateful for being able to spend even just a few days at Club Paradise in the Philippines. I'd absolutely love to go back and spend a longer amount of time! #Gratitude #BlueSkyArtShow #vacation #seascape #beach #Philippines #EastCoastKin #stormhour #photographersunited #Nikon #Z7 #ArminPhoto

I had some pretty lucky circumstances!
When in Vancouver, we always go to Cactus Club for food and of course, Bellinis #FoodOnFriday #food #foodphotography #foodporn #drinks #burger #fries #bellini #EastCoastKin #photohour #photographersunited #ArminPhoto
I’m feeling stuffed again just looking at it!

Kicking off today’s #FoodOnFriday with some KBBQ from last Saturday up in Burnaby, BC! It was SO much food but oh so good! #food #foodporn #kbbq #koreanbbq #koreanfood #EastCoastKin #photohour #photographersunited #iPhone15pro #ArminPhoto
WOW, this week’s Star Trek Strange New Worlds was SO good! It was almost a perfect balance of homaging TOS, TNG, and Lower Decks! #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #STSNW #SNW #tvsky
Absolutely can do!
Thanks, much appreciated!
It ranges between 11 pm and 1 am, and unfortunately on weekdays I'm up between 5:30-6 am and weekends I can't make myself sleep later than 8:30-9 am. I am NOT a morning person but because of work, my body's basically trained itself to at least be functional.
I actually have a ton of food photos, so I absolutely can!
Have a great time, looking forward to your photos!

Mine is The Cure but they didn't come out with an album when I was 16 haha (had to wait a year later and Wild Mood Swings wasn't what I would consider "perfect" by any means)
One of my all-time favorite albums!
Thank you, Alina!
Excellent choices!
Thank you! I had so many keepers that I had a hard time narrowing things down
What perfect album came out when you were sixteen? This is tough, but I always come back to these two. #musicsky #albums #nodoubt #foofighters
Thanks so much!
Let's gooooooooo
Thanks! We got really lucky, the naturalist on board our boat was freaking out!
YARRRR thar be whales!!! Last weekend was fantastic, I hoped to see Orcas but got Humpbacks instead! Full gallery: photos.arminausejo.com/Animals/Whal... #whales #whalewatching #WhaleWednesday #marinelife #nature #Humpback #EastCoastKin #photohour #photographersunited #Nikon #Z8 #ArminPhoto
Yeah agreed, that's the key. A well-done sequel can be fantastic (Top Gun Maverick immediately comes to mind), or they can be completely forgettable (haven't seen the latest Jurassic World but the last two were very less than stellar). It's been like this for awhile, but execs will go with the $$$$$
Imagine a world where great original stories with good acting and storytelling can actually become popular vs. the 4th sequel that's pretty much the same as the previous series of sequels from 20 years ago haha
Here's a cool one for #TagTuesday -- my friend built a Toyota Tercel Rallycross Car and had a local famous graffiti artist paint the entire exterior! photos.arminausejo.com/Cars/Kitos-T... #cars #automotive #carphotography #bskycars #graffiti #EastCoastKin #photohour #Nikon #D700 #ArminPhoto

Thanks! It was so great being out on the water!

I’m really happy with how Fantastic Four First Steps turned out! Some really dazzling visuals and a good overall feel to the movie. 4th time is the charm? #fantasticfour #firststeps #marvel #filmsky #moviesky
