I’m sure it’ll be fine as long as there’s no pressure on the mount. I’ve used one of those heavy duty camera wraps while travelling (thrown in the main bag with all sorts of crap) and never had any issues.

I think they’re amazing. The chemistry of colored flame has fascinated me since I was young, and there’s nothing quite like being close to explosions. If I had more time and lived in the US I’d be a hobby pyrotechnician.

Pretty sure funding has been approved and it’s going to be back up and running again.

You weren’t tempted to try the reindeer piss method?

Depending on the salt you can make both blue and green. Copper sulphate flame test is a pretty common school lab practical isn’t it?

Amazing what the sun can reveal. When I was helping photograph an archaeological site with a drone we would wait till the sun was just right to reveal undulations and features that would be very hard to see from ground level, or in flat light.

I like it, but my eye is drawn to the center of the image, and it kinda looks like a pile of rubbish. I’d lose this subject (and clone yourself out) because it isn’t really recognisable and play with the crop to make those lines work a bit harder. At the moment they’re not really doing much. Square crop might work well if you don’t have a wider shot to give you more flexibility.

OK fair enough, in terms of advice I would suggest getting really familiar with whatever RAW software you’re using as you should be able to get an image like this perfect without needing to take it into photoshop.

I’d be happy to reprocess the RAW and walk you through the work flow if you’re interested.

Nice shot! There’s definitely some detail in the shadows that could be be pulled up a bit more without it looking artificial. Was this shot in RAW or JPG?

The way the buoys calm the wind in their wake to glass is really neat. Nice capture.

I love my inkjet. It’s so nice to be able to do my own high quality prints for the wall and for friends.

Some experience of the UK system, I’ve called for an ambulance twice in the UK recently for what I consider (and any reasonable person would) to be an emergency. Both times I was told it would be about 4 hours wait and could I get someone to drive me to the hospital. My partner has been phoning her GP to try and get an appointment for over two weeks and keeps getting told to phone back ‘in a few days’ because they have nothing available for over a month, including phone consultation. I’ve experienced dangerous ineptitude from multiple NHS doctors. I’ve also seen corruption in that if you know someone who works in the right department you can jump queues. So I’ve learned from experience to go private if I actually need medical aid.

Evidence existing is a very low bar, It’s when it’s proved beyond reasonable doubt that it stops being a theory.

The reporting/blocking features are done at the OS level, not in game.

I should’ve elaborated… It’s supposed to be a vast seamless network of interconnected spaces isn’t it, but that doesn’t exist yet. I think they jumped the gun in that everyone thought Horizons was it. It’s only just starting to be built.

It was never a thing.

Regular photoshop has a bunch of AI tools as standard these days.

Used to be in charge of wet proofing and colour management for a design studio. Accurate meme.
