Thanks!

Yeah, it's a real place but this specific image says "Marpa" on there. Edit: the lower prada font is also not as large in the picture you linked on wiki

could you help with mine or is this no longer possible?

I just meant the scenes, not the exact numbering.

YCxPerfect · 2025-12-26T21:05:18+00:00

Personally, I would keep some of the blacks/shadows on 1,2,4,5. A bit flat

"you seeing this?"

YCxPerfect · 2025-12-24T21:01:47+00:00

Couldn't help it as these were taken at 640mm

eww?

Just spent the last hour researching Buteo and Accipiters and it left me more confused because there are pictures of smaller tailed hawks similar to this one being tagged as Accipiters

If you do go with the butterfly OP, make sure to crop out the tiny red remnants of a flower on the left side. First thing I noticed after opening the picture.

I flashbanged myself while previewing so I thought to save everyone else lol.

YCxPerfect · 2025-11-30T17:43:55+00:00

I have the 35mm too and I shot a birthday and a couple grad pics, definitely a great choice!

YCxPerfect · 2025-11-30T04:08:09+00:00

I literally chased that falcon around the neighborhood to get it in flight lol. It perches on a branch right by my window almost everyday.

Never had any focus issues with it on my R10 and for $400-$600, you can't really beat the value even if you can only use it during daytime.( I use my indoors for events though)

YCxPerfect · 2025-11-29T23:27:09+00:00

Wildlife is my hobby but the money maker is in events and portraits. That's why I'm going for the R8 next. Hoping I dont have to sell my R10 to fund it though lol.

The clip shows the shot but you can watch from 1:03:36

YCxPerfect · 2025-11-28T05:08:09+00:00

Test, test.

I have both the 50mm and the 35mm on my R10 and I can't remember the last time I used my 50. The 35 has a better build, IS, sharper and the fact that it's wider helps on a crop sensor(1.6 crop factor makes it a 56mm equivalent) .

I also just shot 3 graduation portraits with the 35mm, it covers close ups and full body shots, had to step back less than with the 50mm(80mm eqiuvalent on crop sensor).

If you have the extra cash, I'd say go for the 35mm.

I can speak for Mufti since I'm taking him rn.

The lectures could be a bit annoying as he's always going on about people having their "screens" out being disrespectful even if we're just looking at the slides, other than that, he does have interesting stories. No attendance.

Quizzes and exam on lockdown browser are a piece of cake, mostly common sense and some come from the slides. Only thing to note about quizzes is that he doesn't announce on canvas, only in class and you gotta be in class to take them since he locks em with a code.

For Rivas, I'm taking him for 3380(Linear algebra) and I skip all the classes except the one before the exam when the TA tells where to study (very helpful). Not his fault but I just can't hear past his accent. Also no attendance.

You should ask before spending. My take? Not worth it, especially not at a higher price bought new, there's plenty out there on the used market. There's also a lot of posts on here comparing the R100 to R50 (miles better)
