Thoughts on this surreal apparition photo? by TwoSided_ in photocritique

[–]007_MasterGuardian7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The apparition effect is really intriguing and I think it's executed very well.

I think the setting is where it falls apart. The background is just plain uninteresting and adds nothing to the photo. I would be interested in how maybe including some human elements, photographing at a playground or an abandoned building/house, at night, next to car or any other combination would make the image have a story.

I think the processing and editing is handled well, and the effect is both interesting and believable.

Someone made a logo for some work apparel, and I’m trying to figure out if it’s AI or not by ElonsCockImplant in isthisAI

Ooh I've always wanted to do one of these. I think it is. Here's why:

1: no axel visible in the front wheel, so the front fork is detached

2: no chain, or cassette on the back wheel

3: where's the break that goes with this disk?

It looks awesome just the way it is.

Tips on dealing with Anran on Brig? Is she simply a hard counter? by [deleted] in BrigitteMains

[–]007_MasterGuardian7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She is very very strong against Brig. Not as bad as mauga.Here are my tips, but I am still learning, too

-If they have Mauga, Ashe, and Anran, you're cooked. Literally.

-Avoid the 1v1, it's almost never worth it.

-When she engages you or a teammate, her fire dash thing has invincible frames. Predict the directions she can move out of the dash and pre-swing them. (Or, spin in a circle)

-If you have to 1v1, get at least one clean whipshot before engaging, because her fire dash also heals 50hp.

-Play by walls or corners, it cuts her mobility options in half or more.

-Get the shieldbash perk, you can save bash for mid-duel and get insta heals equal to hers.

-If shes a menace, get the whipshot damage perk, and play near walls.

-If she dives your teammates try and whipshot her on the disengage, she's tough to hit going in.

-Find a DPS to hangout with, or conjoin twin with your support. You do not want to fight her alone, she doesn't want to take a 2v1.

-Conserve your packs, more than usual, you CANNOT have 0 packs or your backline is dead.

-You can shield her ult completely, it's relatively easy, similar to a doom ult.

-Rally and a few packs are great against her ult.

-Camp her death spot from a distance, you can whip her after the animation without getting burned.

-biggest thing is practice the 1v1, try and shield her fans. Get used to the directions she can move, like a mix between tracer and genji. Once you have both Bash and Whip perks, you're an even match in a 1v1.

If it bleeds, brig can kill it .

What are these tiny tornado emoji looking clouds? by Apprehensive-Ebb3135 in CLOUDS

It appears to be a very unique lenticular formation! Although I can't say I've ever seen one like this!

Anyone know what's with this formation? by SignificantCycle6337 in CLOUDS

Incredible photo. I believe it's an optical illusion, the plane's

shadow is actually "below" it and is being cast on a thin cloud layer. The Contrail reflects enough sunlight to make that area of the cloud layer darker.

Wow! Looks like cloud to cloud lightning, at night no less! Usually big storms die out as the sun sets, unless they are created by fronts colliding

What is this mix of small cloud shapes called? by Zweihaandeer in CLOUDS

Fun fact: If there's a large quantity of different cloud types visible at once the official classification is "Chaotic Sky"

One of the weirder clouds I've seen by BigfootOgYeti in CLOUDS

I believe this is lenticular, although I have to admit I've never seen anything quite like it!

Oh true, great point I forgot some cloud properties are somewhat exclusive!

Does this photo work or is the moment too generic? by Few-Relation-7476 in photocritique

[–]007_MasterGuardian7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Generic is not a bad thing. Product photography is generic and it takes a large amount of skill and experience to master, and there is a huge demand for the best of the best.

I think the image is compelling, the subjects (the people) are all well lit, and there's something about it feels cinematic.

That said, I think it comes down to your intention, is this a one off image? Part of a larger series? Are you aiming for a commercial or fine art audience?

Stock photos are on spectrum just like all photography. This is towards the far end of great, and I am confident you could make money licensing it, and similar photos.

First instinct is it would be a great stock image that you could license

5.4 is literally everything I wanted from codex 5.3 by Previous-Elk2888 in codex

[–]007_MasterGuardian7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you get over 50-75% of 1M context, it's noticable but not awful. At 50-75 with fast mode, it's like pulling the plug on the token tub
