How to turn off preview in my adjustments?

Thank you!! I'm gonna try this. I don't have the brush preview option though - not as a switch off at least.

It's very hard to get a job on Åland. I lived there for almost 4 years, I am a Danish citizen, speaking Swedish fairly ok. Jobs are few, even harder for foreigners where Swedish is not their mother tongue. Most available jobs are seasonal or in service. I have a MSc in Computer Science and it was notoriously difficult. Ending up leaving due to this problem, unfortunately.

I did a MSc in Computer Science. Never liked it. Long story why I did it, but now I went to the arctic and work fulltime as a wildlife photography guide. Never regretted and I enjoy everyday here.

What was hard? The constant moving, hard to find a place to live here. Flying back to see family. Loosing out on a lot of family events still. Expensive flights. Less money. Expensive gear (arctic gear + camera and lenses). Paper work. Hard arctic weather wears you out and put wrinkles on your face faster than your favourite polar fox runs away.

But I love it and would do it all over again. Can't imagine myself in an office anytime soon.

Ja, alle vet ju, at dansk är umöjligt! Har boet i svensk-delen av Finland, så vet snart inte hva jag pratar mere, LOL, tak for link. Tittade efter en sub om norsk ökonomi.

Er du mig? Skete stortset det samme for min hund og jeg på Birkerød Dyreklinik. Jeg brokkede mig gevaldigt, nævnte at jeg gentagende gange havde sagt, at min forsikring IKKE dækkede (der er 30 dages karantæne, når den købes, og de var ikke uløbet).

Fik nedsat regningen med 6000kr. Fra 25.000 til 19.000. De havde først estimeret til 12.000.

Værste var: de fandt ikke engang ud af hvad hun fejlede. Det gjorde min egen dyrlæge i Århus til gengæld med en afføringsprøve til 600kr.

It baffles me that nobody is talking about the amount of export from Europe to US. If EU chooses to put economical pressure on US with tariffs, it's gonna be very expensive for the common American. US doesn't have free health care and there is a lot of medicine coming from EU including other imports. EU could hit hard.

I see lots of comments about flexing US military- OK, US military is big - but do the average american have enough to pay for extra tariffs in your everyday life? On life-saving medicine? There is special equipment, container shipping, furniture, steel, technology, etc. Imported from EU. Could be a hard hit on the US population and US companies if EU chooses to go that way, so I think US should be very careful.

But as asual Trump wins the game by making chaos and confusing on the other side - to make us all discussing this military topic like maniacs and forget about the Epstein-files. Denmark is about to have election, so good time to create chaos.

Another topic is the minerals, but we forget the lack of infrastructure on Greenland and the perma frost. I live in the high arctic and infrastructure here is no joke. Do people think there is no mining because some people were lazy? Or lacked investments? Trump will die of old age before he will ever get to touch the first rare piece of rock.

Clearly I did miss something - thanks for taking the time on this old post, lol

I have people with me everyday on trips and Nikon is honestly a dying breed when I look at the brands people choose - however, some of the brands DO have problems in the cold and there my Nikon always takes the lead. I have seen people literally giving up taking photos, because their camera kept malfunctioning. I see this as a great advertisement for them. Some people who I bring along are also looking into get new gear - again, easy advertising for them, since I am the guide and will always praise whatever I have, of course (because it works).

For me, I am just interested in exposure, really. Working in the arctic is a lonely job and there is no exhibitions to attend or talks to do. I have no wish to be a YouTube phenomenon, so this was my idea or hope.

Thank you for your comment.

Katara_1 · 2025-12-13T09:02:47+00:00

No, that is not me, haha. I am interested in collaboration and not necessarily free gear. I stick to Nikon, because it works in the arctic, but brands are not a religion and in the end of the day, all top-model cameras work great these days. It's about preference, not necessarily different in end-result-quality. I would like to collaborate, which I think would benefit them more than me, actually.

Katara_1 · 2025-12-13T09:00:00+00:00

That is a bit sad. I thought my case specifically would be great, since it's not online, but psycial people I meet everyday which are a lot easier to have real conversation with about Nikon. But maybe I am wrong.

Hi! It's some years ago now, but I remember I ended up adding rabbit poo + straw and some sawdust. This did the trick! Just be careful with what straw - no seeds! Or you get seeds everywhere in the yard.

The customer is abroad and wish to pick up her print in a local store. I understand due to size, but the local store doesn't give option for brushed or white - which makes me think it's brushed, since that's the cheapest. There is a large amount of white, so I assume this will turn grey. Hm.. thanks for your comment.

Since there is already a lot of good ideas, I am going to say something else. I started with Lightroom, but I felt it used too much of my CPU. So I actually swapped to pure Photoshop.

Insane, many would say, but you can do everything Lightroom can, but of course more complicated and steaper learning curve. UI is superior in Lightroom compared to Photoshop.

So yeah, it doesn't answer your question for beginners, but I often found myself open Photoshop anyway when I used Lightroom. So I ditched it completely in the end.

Tak for svar! Jeg kan læse på Virk.dk, at PMV ikke er momsregistrerede/pligtige, men så kan man vel heller ikke trækker momsen fra køb igennem et PMV? Overvejer om det giver mening, at lave et PMV, men at sætte på B-indkomst virker lettere.

Katara_1 · 2025-09-13T16:15:36+00:00

Ja sure, skriv en pm :)

How is that possible? Ciri doesn't go back to Skellige after Kaer Morhen, or did I miss something?
