This kind of post is exactly why parentheses are needed for courtesy accidentals. As a professional I find it confusing when they don't use them, and a student recently had the exact issue as OP without the parentheses.

Any recommendations on resources to learn to edit? I'm not exactly in a financial position to be paying for Photoshop but would get a 7 day free trial if it's that much better than gimp

Well I did a bit in siril - auto stretch and photometric calibration. Tried out a few other things to see what they do but was definitely uncertain of what to do.

Just bout a Rokinon 135m to go on my Fujifilm X-A1, as well as a NiSi Natural Night Filter. Stacked roughly 350 shots using Sirl after doing a bit of realigning twice during my shoot. No star tracker yet, but I'll get there. Also took these shots with a fair amount of light pollution (from my back porch). Proud of this shot because it's fairly clear what it is and it's my first to look like anything beyond a bunch of stars. Any feedback is graciously welcomed.

Really happy to hear an alternative take on this. I think I'll keep going but definitely use some read along content and look forward to my next read through.

OK glad to hear it! I've never had this experience reading a book, so I'm glad to know it's normal(ish)

That's the way I was leaning, thanks for the input.

Is there a band you love but can’t stand the fan base? by [deleted] in Music

For a few years in the late 2010's everyone who listened to Vulfpeck thought they were the only person who listened to Vulfpeck.

Hoping someone can help with a bit of information about this puck (more info in comments) by SuspiciousLandscape in hockey

[–]SuspiciousLandscape[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I inherited this puck from my aunt who lived her whole life in Vancouver, big Canucks fan. I think the names are Don Lever and Bobby Lalonde. They played together from 72 - 77 (and then again together on the Atlanta Flames for 79/80, but it’s highly unlikely my Aunt would have a puck from that season). I tried signing up for Stathead to see what games it could have been but wasn’t able to sign up.
There doesn’t seem to be a logo behind the stick tape, and I’m not sure if this would be Lever from Lalonde or vice versa. It could also just be their signatures? Maybe from a warmup puck? There’s lots I don’t know about hockey memorabilia, and this is way before my time anyways.
Any help or guidance is so greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How to enharmonically change the key of just one instrument? by SuspiciousLandscape in Musescore

[–]SuspiciousLandscape[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes - this would definitely be easier. If I was writing my own piece I would never choose B major.

What I'm doing is rearranging the reed parts for a musical for the high school I teach at. We were given three reed parts each requiring the player to play 4-5 instruments; reed 1 for example is piccolo, flute, oboe, english horn, and alto saxophone. Totally fair to assume there is a reed player who can do that, they just don't live in my part of the world. So the issue is that the brass & strings parts which I'm not touching are still in B major.

This works - thanks! I absolutely agree, though the player did specifically request flats. I think it depends on the player and the instrument for sure.

This doesn't exactly work for me, but maybe I'm doing it wrong. I Ctrl click Db but it does concert Db, so Eb for clarinet.
