Once every half an hour round here 😂 I’ll get some Christmas trees tomorrow :)

Yeah, that really didn’t show off what it was able to do with some street lights 😂

Not at all perfect examples but here’s photos of the same view (outside my window) with stacked, 1/8, 1/4, none.

No cos it was chuffing freezing in the wind! However it’s just round the corner so I had thought I’d go back and see what the same scenes look like with them individually.

Too much work, not enough photos… yeah black mist 🤦‍♂️

This was a 1/4 and 1/8 stacked as i wanted to really see what it did and how it worked. Will try them separate now I know what it does (and doesn’t) do for the kind of photos I enjoy taking

Not being a massive fan of sitting in front of a computer editing digital photos, I’ve still got a fairly large selection of filters for various things. Recently got a black mist diffusion filter, thought I’d give it a try with all the Christmas lights out to see how it worked. I’m a fan I think overall

Which iteration of MacBook Air? I have been looking recently and I think it’s only the most recent M3 chip that can do dual screens, the M1 and M2 seem to only support one external display. Have you tried just using one monitor and seeing if that works?

@Getaway you were looking for one?

Prices and SSD storage all being equal, M2 with 16gb unified memory or M3 with base 8gb unified memory? Both 2024 release, so 2xTB and MagSafe 3 charging. Basic photo/video editing (not adobe CC) and general (personal) laptop usage.

Wanting something that will last, but not break the bank (as a more generous than usual Christmas present for the SO). M3 is the newer chip but ray tracing and dual external monitors aren’t really needed, so leaning towards better memory…

I have never seen that thread before 😂😂

I think “road” is generous, given at either end is a very very muddy farmers track that even the farmer avoids in winter for fear of getting stuck. Makes a great off-road cycle route though!

Got out after a bit of a rut, forced myself to try something new as the red kites I had hoped to find all disappeared as soon as the camera came out. Using a massive telephoto for landscapes was pretty fun actually, the foreshortening of subject to background was much more pronounced than I thought it would be and made familiar views seem very different.

Denim jeans; I’ve had (so far) good performance with Alpkits “Jeanius” line. Good movement, not restrictive and has an additional patch in the crotch precisely for this issue. I have two pairs on rotation and think they’re both comfy and don’t look too “tech wear” off the bike.

Re point 2, a good designer would probably have factored in “solar edge” panels, which don’t get throttled by the lowest power panel. Usually installed or recommending there’s risk of shading (eg tree, neighbours house etc) so that you can maximise the output across the array. Ask your installer what they are proposing as it may be a non-issue

Not sure if best asked here or the digital photo thread however… Hasselblad 501c / cm medium format cameras. Has anyone used this in addition to their digital back (CFV 50 or CFV100)? I foolishly walked past a shop and asked about them and it’s made the mind wander…

I’ve got these: wtb i19 rims, novatec hubs. Front is 20mm TA but easily convertible with a sleeve (sorry, I don’t have one!). In Bristol start of December for work so could bring up then.

Silver lining, Could have been worse if South Africa had showed up on the second half. 5 live commentators summed it all up as “hopeless, rudderless, and dismal” and “first time a national team has gone a full year with no wins” which probably sums it up.

But it was always going to be a rebuild year for Wales with so many ending their careers after the World Cup, don’t think I recognise any/many of the squad that played today as ones with significant international experience

Some of those serated anti-turn washers would also probably do the job (and likely look a bit neater)

I’ve got some wtb i19s not doing anything, shimano HG, bolt on disk. But front is 12mm TA but can easily be converted (I don’t have the conversion sleeve I’m afraid) to QR. Interested? I’ll grab some pics at the weekend if you want.

Where are you based re postage, I’m also not London based so if you’re around Oxfordshire then happy to meet up.

As it’s now dark in the evening, could you do it the other way and get a suitably bright torch/similar under or around the cabinets then take a look from the outside? Obviously not helpful if you’re worried it’s a draft coming between the outside wall and plasterboard/frameing, but depending on your house construction might be an option?

I’ve got this in my garage, seems to have held up very well despite no care or attention other than an occasional vacuum. Cheap enough if it doesn’t work for you, bonus is that I find it super comfy to stand on vs bare floors. Haven’t experienced oil spills on it (have always covered with tarp or cardboard if there’s a risk)

If you’re looking for a drone, I’ve got a Mavic Mini fly more combo I’d let go for cheap. Not used it this summer at all and so it’s probably time to pass it on to someone who will.

I had this, and I found it’s because most modern routers won’t support a lower wifi standard. I solved this by finding an old router and connecting the iPad to that, and not a modern router. Worth checking what WiFi standard the iPad supports, and maybe finding an old router that’ll work with it (eg my eero mesh set up didn’t like the iPad, an old TP link travel router did)
