国家地理

Nearly 4,000 years ago, a disgruntled trader named Nanni fired off a litany of woes about a transaction gone awry, giving a piece of his mind to an allegedly unreliable merchant—a fellow Babylonian by the name of Ea-nāṣir. This palm-sized clay tablet, inscribed in cuneiform, rails against the delivery of poor-quality copper. Considered the “world’s oldest complaint letter,” it was found in the house of metal merchant, Ea-nāṣir. Head to the link in bio to learn about who Ea-nāṣir was, and why Nanni’s complaint letter is so compelling thousands of years after it was written.

Imagine how shitty the copper must have been for it to be talked about even after 4000 years... Gotta be on Nanni's side on this one

The complaint probably reached a call center somewhere in India.

I just want to know why they kept going back through enemy territory to get one shipment of copper.

Morning Mist 🦘🌫️ What a treat it was to wake up early & find kangaroos hopping around outside my room in a beautiful low fog. The peaceful sounds of birds, the smell of fresh air and endless sights of Australian wildlife roaming around the property made this my favorite hotel stay while visiting New South Wales last month. Truly a sunrise I’ll remember forever...and some of my new favorite photos! 📸 Swipe through and enjoy some new work captured on my @SonyAlpha a1 ii with the 70-200mm GM ii. Using a telephone lens is crucial for this kind of nature photography, so I’m glad I had that with me. I tried to focus on all the details of this dreamy location. Let me know what you think of the photos. ✍🏼 📍 Where: @TheOaksRanch Mossy Point, NSW Australia 🇦🇺 #wildlifephotography #alphacollective #sonypartner #sonyalpha #wildlifeofaustralia

In my latest video I make a deep dive into color theory! I have spend so much time on making this video and I hope you’ll enjoy it! Check it out when you get time. Here is a collection of some of the photos I talk about in the video. Color and light is also two sides of the same coin, color is light and light is color. I share all my knowledge about how to use light in landscape photography in my newly released and third ebook ‘Landscape Light’. It is 251 pages and covers the types of light, the light you can encounter all throughout the day, colour and the impact of post-processing are all themes I cover throughout the ebook. If you struggle with light in landscape photography, this ebook is for you! A massive thank you to all of you who have already got this ebook! It means a ton and it makes me able to keep doing what I love 💛📸

A collection of photos from beautiful Slovenia where color and light plays a significant role in the composition. Can’t wait to go back in October! We have one open spot available for the workshop. In my brand newly released video on YouTube I also dive deep into color theory, I discuss color balance, harmonies, how I work with color in post and much more. Check it out when you get time!
