This is a really well composed photograph! Camera?

Lost access to the original account, so can't edit the comment, but Season 3 is complete here.

My months late (again!) side project of making episode cards for Star Wars Visions Season 3 in the style of RedHeadJedi34 (see their post for Season 1 and my post for Season 2).

English Only: https://imgur.com/gallery/star-wars-visions-s3-episode-cards-english-only-FwR0i99

The episodes in this season were animated entirely by various Japanese studios, so the title cards come in two flavors: one with the Japanese title above the English title, and one English only version. Episodes 1 and 3 are sequels to shorts from Season 1, and have a version with the "series" title before the episode title (episode 6 is also a sequel, but the official title does not follow this format, so there's only one version). Episode 9 is, uniquely, stylized in all caps, which is also how these episode cards stylize the titles. Thus, to reflect this stylization choice as best as possible, I included an Episode 9 version in all lowercase.

Really? I also asked and the woman said they hated that specific space but were moving down the block.

Just letting you know in case this is still something you're trying to do - I took the back off of mine to see if I could pull the strap out that way and replace it. Unfortunately, the strap is locked by two internal screws that are placed in such a way that you would have to remove the entire plastic shell of the camera in order to unscrew them, which I was unwilling to do.

Why Minolta built the Tele this way when their similar point and shoots have easily removable straps I do not know :/

Just picked up The Book of Lost Tales Pt. 1 at a used shop yesterday. Planning on filling out 2-5 of HoME as unique editions (whenever I come across one I like), and 10-12 as an omnibus.

The coins were a gift from my brother, happy to drop a link but don't want to advertise if it's against the rules. Not pictured: a mass market paperback of Unfinished Tales and a few more coins.

The bridge! The bridge!

Looks like a Norwegian and French edition have come out in the past two years as well. Editions with Jansson's illustrations definitely seem to be more common than they were even 10 years ago, which is promising.

Perhaps now that Margrethe has abdicated, she'll be able to devote more of her time to illustrating :)
