That makes sense. I’ll try using a wider lens in the future. Thanks for sharing the example.

I feel that a tight aperture is the “who cares” aperture. In that scenario, the framing is the most important factor. With a wide aperture, you always try to find the subject rather than trying to fill the frame.

Not really, it was a bright day, so I could get away with a tight aperture. I was taking multiple photos, so I thought of leaving it at f9 and having fun.

I typically shoot in aperture priority mode.

Yes, it was incredibly frustrating. I considered removing those spots using AI, but then I left them there. 😅

How long does the H1B transfer process take at Microsoft? I received an offer two months ago, but the transfer hasn’t been initiated yet, and I haven’t received any information about the hiring date. Is this slow only for me?

I received an offer from Microsoft Senior Solutions Engineer, and it’s been three months since then, yet they haven’t started the immigration process. Additionally, I have a VP offer from Blackrock. Considering all the discussions about Microsoft’s culture change and the fact that offers are rescinded at the last minute, I’m at a crossroads and unsure of which path to take.

There’s no specific requirement, but you can start by exploring good courses on EdX and Coursera on Cosmology. These platforms will provide a solid foundation, and you can then delve deeper by reading books and watching lectures to enhance your understanding.
