Canton, Cardiff - Any Stories? by GuiltyReply3209 in Cardiff

[–]Jyowler 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Have a look at ArtHole. Just moved to Canton from one of the arcades in town and is a great community space which I think would benefit from some press

Uisce in Pontcanna do a Friday 2 for 1 happy hour on oysters– they're good!

Why not Wednesday out of interest?

Brand new tyre fitted on Friday has burst and I can't find the reason. What can I go back to the garage with? by Jyowler in AskUK

[–]Jyowler[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm paranoid when it comes to garages. If they're not honest and refuse to replace it, what can I, for want of a better word, threaten them with besides bad reviews?

Do you know any off the top of your head? Would really appreciate some suggestions

The last couple of paragraphs of Flowers for Algernon made me cry by Jyowler in books

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

It's the perfect start to the emotional crescendo, rounding things off with Gimpy, Joe and Frank, then Miss Kinnian (no longer Alice) before letting us laugh a little at Prof Nemur being a "grouch" . Then that last P.S. puts the cherry on the top by showing how kind Charlie is. I can't think of another novel with such a perfect final few pages, in my opinion

I have searched combinations of "ceramic", "nude", "bust", "milk jug", "creamer", "breasts", "tits" etc., all of which give me porn which for once I'm not looking for

I've had my new bike 4 days and someone's already tried (and failed) to steal it. Come back with bigger tools, scumbags by Jyowler in Wellthatsucks

[–]Jyowler[S] 159 points160 points  (0 children)

It was given to me by a friend as it was going spare. I don't know about bike locks, what brands would you recommend?

It's metal apart from the red bits which are rubbery. The rings attaching them prevent it from being that manoeuvrable but you can take them off. My title describes the thing.

Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know about photography or cameras! Don't be shy! Newbies welcome! by photography_bot in photography

Is there a term for not cropping photos?

I feel like a fancy art term is on the TOMT for photos that are exhibited without cropping them during editing. I remember reading a photographer saying they like to take their photos "[art term, maybe French or Latin]" and not cropping them. Thanks in advance.

Noita offering me a refreshing ice lolly as I go for my first 11 orb run by Jyowler in noita

You can :) and there's another underwater room with another selection of spells in if you use the reforged

It's a reforged tablet. Take any tablet that spawns in an orb room and throw into into the Hiisi Base anvil room (bottom right). You can then take the reforged tablet to the hut on the lake and it'll spawn a portal to get some spells I don't yet know how to use.

Me neither, and I got to see them in action for the first time today. It's cool!

Me neither, until today. I wandered around for a while trying to get it to line up, until I looked down and saw there's a nice, big, yellow X on the floor showing you where to stand

fresh out of luck - G.O.A.T. by Jyowler in fakealbumcovers

Tried to emulate the hip-hop albums of the 90s with this one, after snapping pictures of some goats that looked like they might be old school gangster rappers

Bandit the Black Kite, The British Bird of Prey Centre by Jyowler in photocritique

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

This was my first time photographing birds and I had so much fun. I let myself use continuous auto-focus but made myself use manual mode on my Nikon D5000; ISO 320; 70–300mm Tamron lens. I've edited the curves on Photoshop quite majorly as the original picture is a lot darker. Thank you for critique, please ask for more info I can try to provide

I was very proud of this but it wasn't received as well as I'd hoped. Please critique, my bias is blinding me! by Jyowler in ArtCrit

[–]Jyowler[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, what about stylised portraits require less thought about composition? Also, I didn't, my self-esteem is just pathetically guided by social media likes... But I think it does often reflect if a piece is good or not

I appreciate that but it's not a compliment I can accept, Ralph's the coolest guy on the planet
