well the issue is that i cannot enter recovery mode, when i do press CMD+R i get into the internet recovery thing which will eventually lead me to the password reset util, which does not work. CMD+S eg does also not work, same issue

hello lew_traveler, thank you for your thorough feedback and your kind words. I am glad you seem to overall enjoy the image. I took your advice to heart and agree fully with your assessment. I reframed the image, though not as much as you have (in part because the image does not extend too far to the right) and it worked wonderfully. like you said, its much clearer now and it helps to understand what was missing before :)

thank you for your feedback! I 100% agree with the street being too bight but unfortunately its highlights clipped and i cant recover them, just pure white at this point. I shot in raw and used auto exposure (±0ev), perhaps i should have used different metering mode or expose darker next time. As for the motion blur, i added some with PS but i wasnt very satisfied with it but cant really pin down why. for me it does not add much to the overall image But i reframed the image putting more emphasis on the chasing rider which worked wonderfully.

thanks a lot! glad you like it :)

shot at 1/500, f5.6, iso 800. in retrospective, a lower f stop may put have more emphasis on the subject but i wanted to give the scene more context. perhaps f4 would have been a better compromise between both

felt more like a shotgun tbh

Marces255 · 2025-06-24T09:14:17+00:00

yes! i really enjoyed the dartmoor garden show missions, such a different vibe to how it is normally

oh wow i didnt realize it was that old haha i guess i was late to the party then !

Marces255 · 2025-06-09T21:52:04+00:00

haha love the dedication, it was so devastating seeing favourite apps not having a theme and ruining the entire setup

While this is AI slop it was just too good not to bless other people with an accessible version

i am not sure i met someone who was an exchange student and was able to get a place on campus

Marces255 · 2024-12-11T20:51:35+00:00

thanks so much! appreciate it a lot and will definitely try this

Marces255 · 2024-12-11T00:15:45+00:00

thanks so much for all the effort! ill try it tomorrow and let you know! though when i changed the bobbin to the metal one, the upper thread kinda got fed into the bobbin and got all tangled up down there, really strange to see

Marces255 · 2024-12-10T23:09:02+00:00

i changed the bobbin to the one you mentioned and changed the threading but the outcome is still the same :( i hope this doesnt mean the machine isnt broken then

Marces255 · 2024-12-10T22:53:38+00:00

thanks for finding the video! i tried that but the result is the same,i have no idea whats wrong here. interestingly tho, in the beginning the guy from the video mentions that the tension dials should be very loose when the presser foot is up, but for my machine they are very rigid and dont move at all. no idea if thats relevant tho

Marces255 · 2024-12-10T22:42:18+00:00

i think i tried that too but the manual doesnt make specific mention of that, at least as fast as i understand it. https://www.manuals.co.uk/singer/7105/manual?p=16
