The owner of Meta wants more "masculine energy"? Well, I'm doing my best to bring my feminine energy to the Fediverse.
Hello! I'm Elena Rossini, an Italian filmmaker, photographer and FOSS advocate based in Paris, France.
Pictured here: at the Louvre museum after a portrait shoot (for a book jacket's author's pic: Monica Parker, The Power of Wonder). I'm proudly wearing around my neck my 3 cameras: a #Canon 5D Mark IV, a #Fujifilm X-T3 and a #Nikon Z fc (which has my favorite lens, a Sigma 30mm f/1.4).
I'm delighted to see Pixelfed growing into such a nice photo community.

Thank you! I've been here for a while, I just recently set up my own self-hosted Pixelfed instance (thus the joined in January 2025 description). If you're interested, I have a whole blog series about the Fediverse called #TheFutureIsFederated: https://blog.elenarossini.com/tag/the-future-is-federated/ 🤗

welcome to the #fediverse !
which - yes - could use some more „feminine energy“
(as well as more „culturally diverse“, black & PoC voices…)

@ele Hi Elena, your special touch is very welcome :)
It's nice to see you embracing PixelFed with so much enthusiasm as you do for Federation through you articles, so now in pictures ^^
Your avatar composition is excellent, kind of "A zen way in the Fediverse" ^^

haha thank you, I hadn't thought about that. Indeed, the Fediverse is a very zen place to be :)

@ele I created my own Pixelfed instance yesterday and followed you, but your post didn't reach my Pixelfed account. Do you see Jerry@gr8.pics following your Pixelfed account?

hi Jerry! So nice to hear this. So, I am LOVING my self-hosted Pixelfed instance but federation has been a real issue. Like, any profile I click on shows 0 followers, 0 posts and an empty feed. I just copied and pasted your username and I'm now following you. The more accounts you follow, from the most varied instances, the better

@ele @jerry@my-place.social Thank you for following me.
I am having the same issues! Every profile I click shows 0 followers, 0 posts and an empty feed.
Please let me know if you get it resolved. I will do likewise.
I am still trying to resolve some other issues too :(

Same at my pixelfeld account at pixel.sp-codes.de, I follow you but still listed correct but count is 0. @samuel_p fight a lot to fix the issues from #pixelfed (so still marked as test-phase at his side)

@ulfi@troet.cafe @jerry@my-place.social @samuel_p@social.sp-codes.de Thank you for the heads-up!
I had been wondering about this but didn’t want to bug Dan (considering all the work he has this month).
Do you also get a completely empty feed when you click on a user profile you’re not following (yet)?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from ele@photos.elenarossini.com
@ulfi @ele Yes, I do. It's good to know it's not just me
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from jerry@my-place.social
@ele yes, if I check it with Jerry@gr8.pics, this is loading bat partly empty.
Similar was reported from other user from my instance as well.

@ele How are you finding the Nikon Z fc?
I've seen mixed reviews, but I'm sorely tempted to buy one only because of how much I loved my Nikon FM2 back in the last century. (Only camera I've had that worked happily at -40°C.)
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from cunobaros@mendeddrum.org
@cunobaros@mendeddrum.org Disclaimer: it’s not my main camera.
For work I use a Canon 5D Mark IV and for everyday photos I use a Fujifilm X-T3.
I got the Nikon Z fc because I have an extensive collection of Nikon lenses and I wanted to be able to keep using them (they’re mostly a mix of Nikkor AI / AIS so I have an adapter for them). The Sigma 30mm is now always on my Nikon and I love its gorgeous bokeh - but focus can be a struggle

@Edelruth @ele I'm following from Friendica. It's so good that we can just pick whichever window to the Fediverse works for our tastes and needs - and then follow all the cool people no matter where they base their account.

@ele Just wanted to thank you for the post — I am sick and tired of the nonsense being spread about by the ZuzkMusks crowd. And besides, you live in one of my favorite cities... 😇 Paris, que j'aime!

@ele @_elena Following your Pixelfed with the hope to see your perspective of Paris. I lived there for three years, decades ago. I miss it. I close my eyes and still see its details.

@com thank you! I do a lot less street photography these days (almost none) because I’m busy with my child but I will definitely share Paris pics from my extensive photo archives 🤗

@ele I have a temporary brainmelt when I switch Nikon to Sony or vice versa - regularly using a Nikon, a Canon and a Fuji at the same time requires some serious dedication for sure.
welcome.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from mbpaz@mas.to
@mbpaz@mas.to thanks! my backup process includes batch renaming files to add the name of the camera at the end (in addition to the date at the beginning)... when I make selections, it's fascinating to see which camera wins out at the end for best pics 🤗

@ele hi… I do love some non-tribal camera selection

From now on I will assume that is the correct number of cameras to carry at all times.
