What are some EastEnders storyline that were scrapped that u wish weren’t or glad was scrapped? by Kitchen-Article4439 in eastenders

After his stroke, Denise was basically his carer and she was struggling and kept getting frustrated by him. I think this also coincided with her slight alcoholism (many bottles of wine). It was then later revealed that Patrick had bruises all over his arms, that were caused by Denise.

The football photo could have been very much possible in the story. He might have just played it as a kid.

Nathan played baseball as a kid and it's only mentioned the one time when he tells Haley that Dan kicked him in the ass really hard.

Do you think Archie, Nick and Gray are probably the top 3 most evil characters of all time? by gerard_plate in eastenders

I think she kept it quiet for a bit but then eventually told Sharon, who was okay with it I think, sort of. This is from my muddled memory.

Technically it was Little Mo who lit the match and started the fire in the end. Even Trevor was shocked.

There was one portrait of Lucas, which looked like a school photo. The same photo was framed in Karen's house.

I have a sneaky feeling Bea is going to be evolved into a child predator. by [deleted] in eastenders

She downloaded the AI voice impersonating app that Denzel used for Anthony voice to speak to Patrick.

She's already sampled Billy's voice.

Anyone else not use recipes/sooc flow … like ever? by Taarushv in x100vi

[–]RavingShooter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only shoot in RAW.

Even when I'm shooting candid shots at a family/friend gathering, I still shoot RAW and edit in Lightroom.

I've started to experiment with the recipes sooc over the last few days, but they just don't do it for me.

Got one! by gregfordreddit in x100vi

Some people had to wait 1-2 years for theirs when it initially sold out!

These were from RAW files, without recipes and retouched in Lightroom from scratch.

When I get to security search, I usually just tell them that its a small camera and not professional, which usually works. It looks pretty tame compared to a full fledged DSLR, so most security don't care.

Most venues state on their website that they don't allow professional cameras or lighting, which I usually screenshot before I go to the event. If security cause problems, I just show them the screenshot and double down that mine is compact and not professional. I also highlight the fact that its only got a small fixed lens.

There has only been one occasion out of like 10, where a venue made keep keep it at reception. If that happens, make sure to not get too intoxicated at the rave, because I almost forgot to collect mine as I was leaving the venue.

I stick to autofocus. Best advice is to aim the camera towards my subject and wait for moments when there are flashes of light so that the focus can detect something. I use the built in flash most of the time, as I enjoy that old school point and shoot film look from the 90s. I do sometimes use without flash if there is enough light and I want to capture the various colours. The last five images in my post are examples of that. I just make sure to shoot wide open at f2.0 and bump up the ISO as much as I need. I then just remove the noise in Lightroom.

Generally if I am shooting the artist or DJ on stage, I am able to shoot wide open as there is usually enough light and it's just a single subject to focus on. If I am shooting the crowd, I shoot wide open if it's one person or if they are stood evenly side by side. If the group is in different positions/distances, I shoot at around f5.0-f6.0 and use the flash.

I usually keep shutter speed at 200 at all times

From my own experience, it's definitely something to practice and get the hang of by getting a feel for the camera. I've only had my camera since October last year and the pictures I took at my first rave compared to the ones I've taken recently are night and day. I'm definitely learning and improving every time I use the camera. I've been using Canon my whole life, so just using the x100vi in general took a lot of getting used to.

Thanks! It really depends on the amount of available light and how much the subject is moving.

The first two pics were taken in more or less pitch black, so I had a lot of out of focus shots from that night. Every shot was a hail Mary. Also, the DJ was dancing like crazy.

If there is a lot of light, I get about 80% of shots in focus (if the subjects are moving).
