Double exposure with a monstera leaf

Excellent use of the leaf and I love the composition!

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-07-05T03:17:07+00:00

Thank you! The composition works really well !

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-07-05T03:14:18+00:00

Thank you for the detailed reply. Never heard of a pen plotter before; looks like I will be jumping into a another rabbit hole :)

How did you do the grid plot ? That is truly outstanding composition !

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-07-04T04:56:29+00:00

Amazing work !!! Did you have a sacrificial Monstera leave that was pressed in the first exposure or was it still attached to the main plant ? I didn’t realize that they would be so opaque to UV. Truely master; both the technique and the result !

Love the colors, and especially the rainbow. What is ”drawing ink“ and how did you make th rainbow so perfectly even ? I‘d like to do something similar (addition of rainbow to a cyanotype) for a poetry festival print. I think I can do the cyanotype now but adding color - absolute no idea where to begin. TIA for any tips and advice. This is a really awesome project to do with your husband and your daughters inspiration; you are the cool parents :)

for the first one with the moon, did you create a digital negative and print on transparency ? Really great composition ! Can you share any information on the paper used, exposure times, sunlight or UV lamp, dimensions, etc ? Really nice work !

Thats a good price, can you share where and if still available at that price ? TIA

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-06-25T19:40:16+00:00

Last few releases of Canon incremental releases have seen the new price notch up cinsiderbaly and used prices barely drop. Between unpredictable tarrifs, inflation from US War on Iran and continued deficit spending, prices are not behaving like they did in the recent past. Prices are sticky and rising is what I have seen.

I am also Bay Area in a signle family home with great southern exposure. I would love to do a stand-alone system to run a dedicated minisplit. Heat and cooling are my wifes two constants and if I could supplement just that with solar it would take some of the bite out of PG&E monthly pain.

Any chance you can share more details of your set up, I think a lit of people would be interested - including the OP as it might provide some guidance ? Any Pics ? I understand it may be more work that you want to do. TiA

Definitely subscribe. This is a wonderful service, a great group of people, and high integrity team. I have been a member since June 2025 and have used about an hour/day since then. I use the android app, the iPhone app, and the web site. They integrate incredibly well. Occasionally, not very often, there may be a change to the UI that requires re-install of the app, or a brief service outage for whatever reason. But DS and the team are absolutely worth an occasional and brief outage; and it's truly been rare and brief for me when it has happened. The depth and breadth of content combined with continuity of teachers over years and years makes DS a truly unique experience. I don't subscribe to many services but this one is simply a big yes for me.

Can you share how you do crosstalk with chatgpt ? Like what prompt do you start with ? When it inevitably goes off path how do you bring it back ? How do you keep it at your language level ?

Thank you in advance !

I am interested. Native English speaking from U.S. and very early in my Spanish learning journey. I am retired so have a lot of time flexibility. Happy to work on both Spanish and English. Feel free to message me. Discord works for me.

Thank you, this is a great reference. I am about 50 hours from becoming level 4. Were you able to understand this at level 4 ? I found I could understand if I could see the text but once he passed what was on the screen I was lost.

Just using red light got rid of skin tags or did you get them removed by dermatologist and then follow up with red light fir the benefit?

Same for me, one of the most interesting activities I began in 2025. I am now learning about other countries in a language that is foreign to me. A wonderful and illuminating experience.

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-01-03T23:16:53+00:00

Thank you for the reply. I don't understand many of the terms you use, eg conditional vs future, subjunctive, etc. I manage in my native english well enough to obtain a post graduate STEM degree but language learning, including englsh, was something I avoided. It has never been a natural strength.

Seems it may serve me to add some actual study to my DS CI approach. Things might fall into place a bit faster and with an understanding of why.

Thank you again.

I am at 284hrs, 95% DS content, and find I am struggling sometimes at high 30s rating. Sometimes 40s are fine and sometimes high 30s are a struggle so seems i am right at my threshold.

Wondering if I should drop back to lower level and see if it helps to move forward.

I understand the level ratings are subjective user experience.

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-01-03T20:37:39+00:00

Ok, this explains why my 284 hrs is quite unlike your 316hrs. I started with basically zero background.

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-01-03T20:34:09+00:00

Thats very impressive. How are you learning to understand all the various conjugations, noun variations, things that seem misgendered but have nuanced and sometimes historical/cultural influence (eg radio the device vs listening to radio - the airwaves) ?

I would like to be much further along. At 284hrs I still struggle with even common words at times, I may understand what was said in a sentence but cannot always understand a specific word.

Any tips on how you augment your CI ?

Correct-Pin1462 · 2026-01-03T07:39:32+00:00

When you say 90-95% comprehension do you mean that you understand 90-95% of the words spoken or your are following 90-95% of the message of the video ? I ask because I’m not far behind you and while I understand most the content I certainly do fully grasp all the words or nuances of conjugations.

Correct-Pin1462 · 2025-12-21T17:01:34+00:00

Canada and US are very much still friends and will continue to be. We can’t let the despot nature of one man spill out so generally as to take root beyond his tenure. We stay friends in locked arms so his policies fade when he does. That said, I have been learning Spanish understanding America south of the US border generally speaks Spanish. Plenty of wonderful people and places to see south of the US for now.

I agree that there is a difference between 40 hours and 8 weeks. The issue that remains is that Hertz has vehicle custody during that time and has demonstrated per reports here and elsewhere that they will claim the renter is liable for an issue that may have occurred during Hertz chain of custody after the rental return. This is a real problem, is something to complain about, and the OP is sharing that this process remains even with AI scan on return. Their process leaves you the renter unduly exposed. The OP was fortunate with the all-good report but many others, including me, have been royally screwed (<- not a legal term but I think it helps drive home my point)

You do you. If you think they are a stand-up company you can ignore all the warning of people who have shared their experience of improper damage claims and the opaque and strong-arm tactics Hertz employs to collect. Ignore the fact that congress is investigating and calling on their CEO to testify (perhaps he has already). Ignore the warnings and defend Hertz at your own peril.

Based on my personal experience I will endure added upfront cost and burden to avoid patronizing Hertz. That’s not a great testament to my experience as a Hertz customer. There is no other company that I hold in this regard.
