They are, but then you get into tech equity issues, which means you need to have in person meetings, but those can be hard for people to get to and now we're into the massive headache that is hybrid meetings

This is the original version of the photo, so any crops would change the proportions. I'm trying to keep as much sky as possible, but there's only so much I can do if I change the proportions. (what sizes of print I can order is another constraint)
