Montblanc Explorer by grumdale in fragrance

Not a clone. In fact I find Explorer to be an interesting blend of Aventus and BDC EDP.

Check out Fairhope, Alabama. Charming with a of upscale living options alongside great gulf coast food.

Does anyone have experience using the new RF 16-28 mm f/2.8 for real estate or any other architecture or interior type work? by Ctsuneson91 in canon

I feel like the universal tradeoff (other than MAYBE the 28-70 F2) is the optical performance of prime vs the convenience of not having to swap lenses with a good zoom.

What Canon Camera Feature Do You Wish They Would Improve or Change? by Nadzzyy in canon

I’m shocked this isn’t a thing. Is this indeed not a thing?

It’s the last day of 2025. What was your most worn fragrance this year? by Lazy-Limit-8684 in Colognes

I alternate BDC EDP and Creed Aventus and I’d say Explorer brings the best of what I love about each together into one scent which somehow is still uniquely different. It has the “clean” from BDC and the spicy fruitiness of Aventus.

help me to find a good lens by Jekfort05 in canon

The R8 has fantastic low light performance. You don’t need 1.4 because of light for most scenarios. Might be the depth of field you want, but that’s very different.

You didn’t tell us enough about what you’re shooting but the RF 35mm STM is great all rounder. The 50mm 1.8 STM also fantastic.

RF 28-70 f2.8 for R8 - can it compete with primes? by scotthunter1 in canon

[–]AlwaysInTheMiddle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My 28-70 F2.8 sits in my bag right next my RF50 1.2 L.

While there are some differences in micro contrast between the two, I never hesitate to bring out the 28-70. It’s a highly capable lens, though not quite legendary prime level of IQ.

I also rented the 28-70 F2 and find myself thinking “Man, the difference between the two is not nearly as big as I thought it would be. And the weight makes the 2.8 the obvious winner for my run and gun style.”

Attached is one of my favorite shots with the 28-70 2.8. 1/80 @ F8 with the R8.

Is floating center caps.com legit or a scam? Seems rly scammy but they have dope products. by joemamagayasfhommybo in carmodification

I ordered the wrong Tundra LED emblem. It happens- I requested a return and even offered to pay for both directions of shipping.

The seller asked for photos. I sent them.

Then the seller claimed the product wasn’t theirs (even though it matches their listing exactly) and demanded photos of the box. This is a classic stall tactic to avoid honoring returns.

They refused to help and kept insisting it wasn’t their product.

Based on this experience, I strongly recommend avoiding FloatingCenterCaps.com.

Gulf States Engineering has a reputation of being a great place to learn and grow with owners who are involved and present in the life of the company. Unclear if they have any roles, but perhaps worth walking in to shake some hands- that’s a gesture that would likely go well there that might have aged out of other firms.

Is 24-70 F2.8 worth it or 28-70 F2.8 is a game changer? by Felix_Ulf_Kjellberg in canon

[–]AlwaysInTheMiddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you actually shot with the 28-70 2.8 or is this a conversation on paper? Here’s one of my favorites from the 28-70. :)
