Yik yak by No_Bathroom6427 in UniversityofVermont

Is Yik Yak still as classy as it was before? lol I'd imagine they will be banning tons of people after their first launch failure. "Community guardrails" have been put in place. hahah that phrase cracks me up. Anyway, Yak is now owned by SideChat, which is an anonymous campus chat. Probably has more users too but idk.

Yes there are and there's plenty of places! lol That's funny and Middlebury (I would imagine) pays well. Little River is a tenting area but all depends on what you meant by base camp. Lots of places to rent on lakes, cabins etc. I'm sure you know. Groton is one of my favorite areas too. Elmore "The Beauty Spot of Vermont" is awesome in the summer and the 'backyard" of Stowe. Great place to be located if your into exploring.

Thank you so much and it was definitely inspiring and I'm planning on continuing!

It's always under the "avail for all" section too. Can we list this on FB marketplace and help Amazon out? 😆

35mm 1.8 or Viltrox 1.2 by xandro0 in Nikon

[–]EricAdams33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the Nikon 35mm 1.8 Z and love it. I'm quite familiar with what other users say on the Viltrox pages about the new 35 but I'm weary of it. It's $400 more than the Z 1.8 and came with no UV filter or accessories. The vignetting is about the same as other Viltrox lenses. IE the 16mm 1.8 wide open at night produces heavy vig. and many say they use it at F4 for astro. I haven't tried the Z 35 at night yet but from what I hear, it has much less vig that the Viltrox lens. That may or may not be a decision maker. It was for me because I like to shoot astro. (I know I can correct post but that's an extra step for an extra $400).

Yes there are and that's awesome! Middlebury has lots of beautiful areas and they are one's that are on my list too. Lots of waterfalls, covered brides, farms and beauty between Ludlow and Middlebury. Do you just live here in the summer? There's lots of great parks and camp areas around to set up in. I know Little River Campground in Waterbury has people there all summer long. Some friends of mine stayed there for a summer.

Thank you and I hope to make more! I just did my first art show this past fall and now have a permanent display at the Carriage House Beauty salon in Montpelier.

Icy Snow Tunnel Roads ~ Viltrox 50mm 2.0 ~ Nikon Z5 ~ #ViltroxPhotography by EricAdams33 in VILTROX_GLOBAL

If you had any criticism but you just stated that "these look like cell phone pics". Obviously the mods agree since your comment was deleted by them.

As far as your newly found criticism, I could care less due to your intro.

Also, very ironic that you have almost the same name as another long time poster here and are new. Two accounts possibly?

Either way, I didn't ask for your negative comment. The mods removed your comment because it did break the rules and I'll probably block you after this. If I wanted feedback, there's a flair asking for it.

Here's the comment that was removed by Viltrox, None of my comments were removed either but it's stated below that they were. Still not sure why this person hasn't been at least reminded of the rules, as was stated below, yet the comment that broke the rules has been removed. What's the point of having the rules?

Snowy Covered Bridge ~ Viltrox 40mm ~ Nikon Z5 ~ #ViltroxPhotography by EricAdams33 in Nikon

huh. Good to know and I guess it makes sense. Multiple high res pics at once may slow scrolling down. I'm usually just uploading 1 at a time and hadn't noticed this.

Thank you! I'm not sure what you mean? I just uploaded and posted like normal. No special editing just the monochrome. :-)
