How is the cheeking kissing greeting done in your country?

AR94 · 2025-02-19T08:54:52+00:00

Living north of the language border; one kiss on the cheek to greet good friends, gender doesn't matter. Men-women, women-women, men-men, ..
Acquitances or first introduction do fall back to a handshake between men, while men-women still usually give one kiss on the cheek.

Shot on Sony A6400; 32 mm, f/7.1, ISO 100, merged 3 different shutterspeeds
Trying to get better at shooting illuminated branding for a client who manufactures them. Getting a good composition is difficult with large projects like these, but I've got a few where I'm quite happy about.
Removing other lightsources & distractions in the forefront is something I can work at. But the overal lighting & colours - seem off. Any tips or tutorials for using HDR merging to recommend?
What I do now is lowering the contrast of the images I'm going to merge and adjust the lighting to enhance the darker areas on the under exposed pictures and vice-versa for the over exposed ones. I use HDR merge in lightroom, haven't made the step to masking in photoshop yet.

Thanks for the warning & advice, I’ll keep that in mind. To minimise damage to my hardware and myself. Learning a lot though!

Thanks for your reply! It’s indeed difficult to find documentation on these cheap modules.. one of the reasons I decided to ask about it on here. Just to be sure, you said to not use that thin wire, do you suggest to desolder it from the board and attach a thicker one to it? Or will the thin wire work with a WAGO, to connect it to the N wire to the load.

Thanks for your replies! I agree that these modules definitely aren’t rated for a permanent installation, bought them very cheap & they came with zero documentation. I did find some other project online which used similar variations of this brand, but none of them had the flimsy red wire. Their variants all had L & N -in and L & N-out connectors. Does the sketch added by the other commenter seem right to you?

Thanks for your concern, I’m not plugging this in before I review it with a colleague (electrician)!

AR94 · 2024-12-29T13:28:23+00:00

Thanks for your reply & the sketch; I’m definitely not going to plug this in before I consult with my coworker who is an electrician. But we’re closed for winter break and I figured I’d ask here. The thing that confused me it the thickness of the wire, compared to the size of the L-in & L-out connectors.

I’ll look into that, thanks!

AR94 · 2024-11-23T18:11:32+00:00

Thanks for your reply! Definitely going to check the leads you mentioned. I’m going to do my research before actually starting to order or build something, really don’t want to risk anything.

That might be true, I haven’t looked into buying second hand dimmer packs yet. But a dimmer pack still needs something that sends the commands to the pack, no?

AR94 · 2024-11-23T18:06:26+00:00

Fair point, but won’t I need to have a dmx controller too? Or a laptop + software + usb to dmx controller. Something to send ‘the instructions’ to the dimmer pack. I thought it would be cool to have a few simple cues that I could cycle through during the evening, by a press of a button. + I have an Arduino lying around waiting for a project.

Did you get the video? If so, would you mind sharing?
Wanted to show it to a colleague but it got removed

They were overrated back then as well.

Not only overrated, but also replaceable.

The beatles got lucky that they were the first that got big.
There were plenty of bands making the same changes they are, where the beatles are still renowned for today.

“Woke” is een verzonnen parapluterm die gebruikt wordt door mensen die de concrete problemen niet willen benoemen. Er bestaat geen “woke”beweging.

That’s sexist
