minus-squareXanthrax@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-23 days agoI have a ton of theories. Do you happen to have a laser pointer you don’t care about? If so, take off the lense, put it in a hair pin, tape that to your phone’s camera’s lens, and take a macro image. Post that image, and you’ll get way better feedback.
