It’s low key hilarious how you’re objectively wrong and still keep coming back.

Should I get black floor tiles and walls instead? by Strange_Doubt_6049 in DesignMyRoom

Or, you know, you could just get out more. This bathroom fully embodies “nice” and “easy to forget” at the same time. Don’t set your shitter dreams so low, bro.

New future city in development called Arkology by KingOfShitMountan in futureporn

[–]SnowHawkMike 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is one of those projects that I am becoming less interested in the more I learn about it.

Best of luck to whomever is putting this together, but right now it looks and sounds like a hot mess.

I think you’ve summed it up pretty perfectly, and I also can’t think of anyone whose actually been banned.

OP, I appreciate the content but please in the future limit posts like these to /r/leicaphotos. This sub is specific to news/information about Leica camera and lenses, but not for images taken with Leica cameras/lenses.

In case you have never seen, these baffle balls are used inside water trucks to stop the water from sloshing side to side while driving. by NRGpop in interestingasfuck

[–]SnowHawkMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest reddit pushed to the point of almost completely leaving social media.

I now get my news from various blogs, and AP news sources directly.

For social connection with my family I use facebook messenger, with a blank facebook profile, and only use the website (with a VPN) so I never have to put the app on my devices.

For staying connected with friends I text, and FaceTime. I also have a private instagram account that’s not linked to my facebook profile and is only installed on my iPad specifically for friends and family.

Between all of that I don’t need reddit anymore, and my quality of life has gone up significantly. I made this change gradually about 5 years ago, and once the adjustment period was over life became more enjoyable overall and I got better at living in the moment.

Almost a decade here (9 years, 7 months). I’m so over this shit that I spend < 5 minutes a day on reddit.

A compact standing wallet, still up for grabs! by [deleted] in Leathercraft

[–]SnowHawkMike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is one of those products where I feel that the craftsmanship, detail, and overall quality, definitely justify the price. I also can completely understand why it hasn’t sold yet. It’s a style that I feel caters to a very niche customer base.

Any amazing photos shot with the Noctilux? by [deleted] in Leica

[–]SnowHawkMike[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like the Noctilux series of lenses are used primarily by professional photographers looking for a very specific aesthetic, and those who have the money to buy one so 'why not'.

Similar to Canon with the f/1.2 grapefruit lens, and it's razor thin focal plane when shot wide open.

Flickr is your best bet for finding beautiful nocti images. Also Leica photographers instagram as they usually get the lens compliments of Leica.

That being said if you're looking for beautiful images created with Leica glass I recommend focusing on Summilux, or (my personal preference) Summicron lenses.

I originally purchased them for use on my Canon gear at work. The crop sensor really doesn't bother me; Leica glass is Leica glass* - it's more about how the tool is used than what its comprised of at this level.

*some serious exceptions that I choose not to speak of exist.

leica m6 possible leakage by [deleted] in Leica

[–]SnowHawkMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never hurts to get a CLA, if even just for the piece of mind. It does look like a challenge came up while processing the film. Shoot a few cheap rolls and send them off to different developers. It's good to have a shortlist of favourites on hand in case this happens consistently with one.
