Cara and her four kids, in front of the house they built.
Awesome!
There are tutorials for just about anything on youtube.
Great job!
Faced with the overwhelming task of constructing a house with their own hands, Brookins and her family turned to an unlikely source: YouTube.

Unlikely? Not any more. YouTube is the go to source to watch hands on demonstrations on how to build or do anything.
Beautiful home, BTW. I just hope her idiot ex doesn’t come around and screw things up.
More power to her and the kids.
Youtube has probably done more to educate people than PBS and the rest educational broadcasting.
I’ve learned tons of stuff and gotten a lot of good ideas. I wish some people could learn to hold a camera steady or use a tripod though.
There is no way that the picture you posted is not a PHOTOSHOPPED PHOTO.
First thing, easily noticed, is that the LIGHTING is completely off.
That was my initial reaction, as well. There is no way those people are standing on the lawn in front of that house.
The photo is from the article, not from the poster.

the internet is just as much of a LEAP in information freedom and personal enlightenment as the invention of the printing press, think about it!
I think as some point Virtual reality + The Internet will lead to an Education revolution that promises to completely replace the failing public education system.

Are you a dummy with money who regularly gets cleaned out by sketchy mechanics..?
Just look up your problem on YouTube, order the cheap Chinese parts from Ebay, and fix it YOURSELF for 90% off.
Some of the vids have amazing detail, geared towards slobbering fools.
People are an amazing resource.
Not so fast buckaroo...Being in the photo buis for some time and trained in portrait photography the old analog way its easy to control your aperture and speed to cause the flash to drop of at or just past the subject .
That is called “Fill Flash” and is something todays digital amateurs know nothing about.
Resouceful AND hot.
My go to source for how to do things.
PS: It causes the subject(s) to jump out at you like those in the shot were talking about.
The brick and mortar no thought zone known as public education simply can’t cut it now.
My YT fodder is done I have to admit with the public TV mentality I learned from being in it. The only ones that are remotely instructive are a couple of electrolysis rust removal.
Living in an isolated, totally non-ethnic loction, this young girl learned 100% of her dancing from YouTube vids:

The people standing in front do “pop”, but I doubt it’s photoshopped. I think the photographer used a flash to light up the people in the foreground so they would stand out, while the rest of the scene is “natural” lighting.
