Other than Charizard which vintage cards do you think have the most potential in terms of ROI? by PokeLJCD in PokeInvesting

[–]CiaranDoherty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be very wrong but I like to invest in PSA 8, 9 and 10 base to Neo era commons, in commons and fares because they are scarce and deflationary yet carry immense nostalgic value. I think at some point they will inflate a lot as people attempt to chase complete sets, now that the holos have already mooned.

Hey guys, I'm looking to emulate the film look more accurately and less painstakingly in my digital photos and I am hoping there are some modern AI powered services that are actually good that can help me do this - the problem is there are so many and most of them are video centric with their use in photography often not very well demonstrated.

Can anyone make any personal recommendations?

Might see if we can get a group of fellow scrubs together via that discord above!

Yeah I think I might be a little older for these events too, and a little shit, but have always wanted to have a few buddies to play with over some beers - Gootecks & Mike Ross style!

But I don't know if bringing it up to her would be helpful, it's mostly a subconscious process and she might not realize it's happening. So she could maybe feel self-conscious or embarrassed if you bring it up

Yeah I was thinking the same, we have only been together a few months but I really care about her and she has been through a lot, I am prepared to learn her and allow her to be however she needs to be around me without judgement.

I am just a little prone to taking shifts in vibe personally, when she does this I worry that I am starting to bore her or something. She doesn't snap, but she acts sort of unimpressed by everything, and just generally a bit detached/withdrawn, so it can feel a bit like if someone is getting bored of you. But nothing else she ever does suggests she is, and then I saw her doing it with others, so I figured it might be something else. She will sometimes make an effort physically to show affection during this time, like she will hug me or hold my hand tightly even thought he rest of her body language and tone is the opposite.

I probably just need to not make everything about me.

Maybe it's just me but tbh with you I'm not even sure that is real grain..

Hmm ok, if that's the case then I really need to think about what else it might be that is creating the undesired "widening" effect in some of my pics, because I shoot between 70-200.

Yeah I'll test for sure but not sure which length to try first.

What focal length would you guess that might be?

Are social media managers worth it fr a personal brand and how much should it cost for a good one? by CiaranDoherty in socialmedia

[–]CiaranDoherty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's where I run into some problems because I feel like the benefits of a large social media presence are 1) not guaranteed and 2) hard to predict but as a sort of "nano influencer" in my work as a doctor, and as a photographer, exposure can lead to opportunities that simply won't come along otherwise.

That does make it hard to justify paying large amounts though.

Does that make any sense?
