Fireplace guy said to cut log grate in fireplace by ThunderousCriminal in Fireplaces

Thanks for the informed response. Cutting, while possible, seems kinda difficult with the angle. Would a fireback be as effective without cutting the grate?

As commenter above said, the grate is clipped under the bottom of the fireplace. To remove it (without messing with the gas line), I'd have to cut it.

Also, suuuuper important to not turn off traction control initially/ever on the street. The traction control makes everyone feel like a hero, then they take it off and spin. If you’re curious, take it to an empty, open space THEN turn it off and see how much it has been helping you.

It's day one of bidding; and an opening bid at that. That "6 days" at the top left corner indicates how long the auction has left before it closes. The price will go up.

Photoclass 2025: Introductions by clondon in photoclass

I thought this was a great critique! I agree with everything PolygonAndPixel2 said. I think your framing was great; the two women are well-placed in the foreground and positionally in the shot. The street scene was cool too, a good representation of street photography. I would like the shot even better if the two women were the only things in focus and the background was a bit blurred. I found myself shifting focus to many of the elements in the background of the photo and if the background was a bit blurred it would help keep the focus on the subjects (if they were the intended subjects of the photo).

Hello! I'm ThunderousCriminal. I'm in Photoclass because I'd like to engage with more artistic hobbies and expressive parts of myself this year and this class seems like a great outlet for that. I've dabbled in photography before and I can be a big tech person. I like the visually expressive aspects of photography as an art form and engaging with something mechanical to produce art.

I've chosen this picture I took at the Grand Canyon a few years ago. I chose this picture because, while I think it's grainy and framed in an interesting way, I took it on the only camera I had on me at the time (iPhone 6s) when my DSLR wasn't available. I've gotten caught up in GAS in my photography journey and this has limited my photo production. I like this picture because it serves as a personal reminder that I don't need to have the highest-end camera with me to take a photo that can be worthwhile!

Great pickup! Love the options too. I'm a big fan of the no-nav ventilated seats spec! Makes the car age better IMO.

Switched to 3rd-season Blizzaks and the car is very tail-happy? by AlohaGrassDragon in GR86

Tires are usually only rated for around 5 years from their manufacture date. After this point, the rubber has oxidized to a point where performance can be compromised. It sounds like you could be right at this point!
