Why is this in portrait instead of landscape.

I hope the old farm house is spared, although that seems unrealistic.

Looks like it already failed.

The water has gone around the dam and created what is effectively a natural spillway, but the dam itself is fine. Lots of debris clogging the dam itself which caused the issue, but no structural issues.

There must be some heavy rain upstream to have all that water flowing without any drop in lake level.

Great photojournalism! Not. I don't think I have ever seen such terrible shooting. Vertical ffs! Ever heard of rotating to landscape? When you shoot like this every TV, phone and monitor that views it sees it about 1/4 the size it should be. Your framing forces it to zoom out and the result is a tiny video. The worst.

@leonardjones7707 3 ай бұрын

Agree. Watching video shot in portrait format on a desktop monitor is so frustrating. The proliferation of cell phones seems to have caused folk to act like our eyes are one on top the other instead of side by side.

People are losing all they have worked for , and you are concerned with how the video was shot. What an ass .

@jameshisself9324 3 ай бұрын

@@leonardjones7707 Even on my phone, which I always view in landscape (when the video is shot properly). When vertical even when the video is full frame, full res it cuts off major parts of the viewable area that the eye naturally wants to see. Feels like looking through a keyhole. I think it is just non thinking and lazy, plus they see so many other incompetents framing this way it's like the pose of the dumdum now.

Jonah : In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful [10:24] The similitude of the life of the world is only as water which We send down from the sky, then the earth’s growth of that which men and cattle eat mingleth with it till, when the earth hath taken on her ornaments and is embellished, and her people deem that they are masters of her, Our commandment cometh by night or by day and We make it as reaped corn as if it had not flourished yesterday. Thus do we expound the revelations for people who reflect.
