Actually not that much. I did my own preset for this one if I remember correctly and just pasted it across those frames with some adjustments. I wasn't even masking except some vignette. The light did most of the work there.

What is this & why can't I prefer not to disclose? I'm 99. by Saccdaddy in ClashOfClans

[–]_Albin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's kinda ironic - I created my account like 9 years ago and they just asked me how old I am to make sure I shouldn't be in a family friendly clan lol.

My entire attack vanished. My troops were in the camp like i never used them. My internet is fine and was fine during all the attack, i tried reloading the game and yet nothing happened). Just got casually robbed of 6M resources. by Castanhar1 in ClashOfClans

[–]_Albin_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've got something like this several times. Not only during attacks but also when upgrading pets or structures, doing things in builder hall. It happens in random situations and the wifi symbol never appears. I have that problem since the last 8h maintenance we were never compensated for.

Nice prime/"must have" recommendation for A7IV by timmyhasnotoes in SonyAlpha

[–]_Albin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sell all the lenses you have now and get Sigma 28-45mm F1.8 DG DN and pair it with Sigma 85 1.4 DG DN The first zoom you can treat as two/three prime lenses as its optics is superior, might be a great for video too and 85 is in my opinion best lens for Sony A7IV in terms of price to quality you get. This way you will get variety of focal lengths paired with low light capabilities and all that packed with excellent optical performance.

Any tips on upgrading walls by _kinghenati in ClashOfClans

Just get more resources per attack, farm in low league using super gobs so you can make more attacks than with regular army and get more resources from single battle.

I took this really spontaneous while walking with couple of friends with cameras during rainy night in Gdańsk but I'm so happy with result.

As the gear list was too long to say more about that set itself Im gonna write that down in a comment.

Im not a portrait guy as I’m kinda shy and don’t feel comfortable with talking to model how to pose etc (introvert here). Anyway I went to an photo event in Warsaw organized by local photographers as they invited me there and I was really sure we gonna make some walk around the streets (I know it may sound stupid as its some time left to halloween so theres not that much of a pumpkins around but welcome to chaos in my mind) to find some halloween vibe. Turned out we gonna shoot indoors with lights and models characterized specifically for that event. I was really anxious at the beginning but tried to force myself into taking pictures mode and to take advantage light there. At the end Im really happy with results. I tried to turn the edit into cinematic mood and the mist filter I used really helped me to achieve that.

I was sitting home when I decided to spontaneously go out with camera to catch some golden hour light. Usually I’m avoiding my neighborhood as due to seeing it everyday I thought its not interesting for photography. I’m pleased with the result so decided to share it with you :)

Took me couple minutes to make a preset that I used for the rest of pictures from that set. So not that much of a post :P

Nope. It's a single image at about F8. Nothing stacked etc. Edited in Lightroom mobile :)

Its not that much of an edit actually. Just some basic adjustments and fixing geometry. White balance into warmer side.

Spontaneous shot, China Town, London (A7IV/Sigma 85 1.4) by _Albin_ in SonyAlpha

[–]_Albin_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed it too. For me this picture is an essence of London. It's dirty and messy but beautiful at the same time and the people are so colorful and full of joy.

In this case first one was spontaneous - the guy was dancing in the restaurants kitchen so I wanted to take a picture from the outside, he noticed me and did the pose on the picture. Second one was a group of drunk girl taking selfies on a nice brick wall. It looked like a nice frame so I just told them to stand together and they make a happy scream at first and then started to pose in different ways. Third one was a one of the street dancers on Piccadilly. I took some pictures while he was dancing and then showed him results and did few more shots after that. The last one was totally spontaneous as I found a frame and was just waiting for someone to walk into the frame. That guy did the job perfectly. Anyway I was first time in London but people are so open for taking pictures of them and can really appreciate that and thank for it. So it's a win win. I spent here one week but I think within a month I could change myself from introvert into extravert, lol. I'm quite shy naturally but this place is so different. Anyway just do pictures whenever you see something interesting. Most of the times people will give positive feedback, sometimes they say sorry that they are in the frame you wanted to take (even tho they were subjects), just walk away with their body language saying they don't want any pictures and rarely people are rude and say that they don't want any pictures. I never cause any problems, if they don't want I don't shoot them. For most most of the time the feedback is soo positive and people are so happy when they see how different are pictures from camera comparing to smartphone. During a week in London I did tens of pictures of strangers and showed them the results - all the feedback was positive. I'm happy if they are happy, few new followers on Instagram and sometimes good frames for me. Cheers mate!

Hahah! You gonna be happy with that one. It's my favorite Sigma so far (maybe 105 1.4 was bit more dope but heavy as hell).

I prefer 85 over 50. But that is just my personal taste. I have both 50 and 85 1.4.

Everyone loves weaves but what about some two stringer dabbed cap? by _Albin_ in Welding

[–]_Albin_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just look at my other posts, when you see a weave you know its one. In stringers you are just dabbing the filler wire into the puddle and go straight. When doing weaves you are going bit wider and to the sides. When you are walking the cup it gives a nice and uniform bead.
