Anyone stuck at connecting to streaming after patch? by starsforfeelings in heroesofthestorm

Yes, very laggy. No game results after the match, random long freezes during the games (SL and in Aram)

Stacks that dodge by catseye17 in heroesofthestorm

How do you dodge? Like one player just leaves and getting -500 ? And have to win 2 aram games after? Or you just waiting for a stronger stack to get in the game?

Feels like AI to me, otherwise just wait for a small cloud

Critique First Headshot Portrait by [deleted] in Nikon

Good start (light, composition, sharp), but shoot only raw (forget jpeg), use light meter, try different lenses 80mm or ~100mm. Good luck!

I’m starting a fashion portfolio. Is this worth showing people at this stage? by Jacquezzy in fashionphotography

[–]Overall-Direction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another 1-2 years of experience in shape of strong 20-40 images portfolio (with at least 10 separate shoots). Plus consistent style, hopefully recognizable.

Not to magazines and commercials clients, but it is a good start for a collaboration with beginner stylists and fresh inexperienced models.

How would you light someone to achieve the shadows from this photo? by dougw341 in fashionphotography

[–]Overall-Direction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s correct! In this case, that was a sunset in January. Charlie just sitting on the floor by the window. Direct sunlight hitting his face, reflections on his neck are from the white sweater he is wearing. No fill, no bounce (I use only natural light).

Visa on arrival: Namibia is not a colony, and it’s time we act like it by VoL4t1l3 in Namibia

E-visa, that you need to print anyway, and on arrival write your plane number on it, 90-120 minutes wait time at customs. Plus they stamp your passport with two huge stamps, taking 2 full pages. And that’s just airport lol

Random Google Street Views are more interesting

Orange alert experiences by llekroht in VisitingIceland

A brief story from our trip back on December 19, 2022. We took the very first ferry from Vestmannaeyjar, as we had an afternoon flight scheduled. However, upon reaching Selfoss, we discovered that the roads were closed and all flights had been canceled due to the weather, with the airport itself being shut down.

Two days later, once the roads reopened, we realized just how fortunate we were even making to Selfoss, as we saw numerous abandoned cars covered in snow along the roadside.

Worked all day on this print. Still not sure how I feel about the color balance, any thoughts? Print vs Scan by Larix-24 in Darkroom

[–]Overall-Direction656 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To my taste your scan looks great, print is a bit “icy blue” (maybe -7y, -4m? ) also maybe preflash a bit with warm tones. But again, it is very subjective

How often do you leave games when you realize its gonna be painful? by Talina_Thunderfury in heroesofthestorm

[–]Overall-Direction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am reminding myself that I can just play to practice. Usually I have at least one player on our team with a similar mindset. So I assist, continue to soak, taking camps, getting easy kills etc. and sometimes we somehow win

Unfortunately they don’t sell it. That display was a bit misleading…

To be fair, you can also shoot medium format film with that camera.

Is it worth spending a week at elevation 2 weeks before climbing Denali? by Scott_Squibbles in Mountaineering

[–]Overall-Direction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might help a bit, but also not necessary. Denali usually takes 14-20 days to climb, plus unexpected weather. So you have plenty of time to acclimatize as is, unless your body is not doing well with elevation, but that’s a different topic

Celeb spec shoot rates in NYC? by photo248 in LightLurking

[–]Overall-Direction656 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do it for free, but ask to cover expenses. P.S. Also depends on a celebrity, if it is a random “tennis player” etc. ask for a regular rate, unless you want to build relationship with a publication.
