index notch
If you ever wondered if those indentions in old-school dictionaries have a particular name, the answer is that yes, they do. They are called an index notch.
If you ever wondered if a close-up photo of an index notch* looked like a piece of wood that had been carved out, that answer is also yes.

not my type(writer)
The photographer that I was in 2018 thought this was a terrible image. However, the photographer I am right now was very excited to see it because it reminded me of a x-ray.
And so, kids, that’s why I almost never delete an image.

isn’t that always the case?
You’ve probably had the same experience. Of course, I am talking about how many times you realize that the “nightmear” truly IS in the back…

always leave traces in the leaves
I am not necessarily admitting anything, but one way to get something in focus on a manual lens – and this works best with a breeze so things are always moving in and out of the zone – is shoot in continuous mode while generally focused in the vague area you want to photograph. If you hold the shutter button down long enough, eventually something will wind up in focus and then later you can just delete 450 crap photos and get on with your damn life.
NOT THAT I DID THIS.
