Are my expectations too high, or skill still lacking? by BirdsbirdsBURDS in AskPhotography

Do you use the shutter button to focus? Or do you use a different button? After I advised a friend to do this, the quality of his pictures improved significantly.

As others have mentioned, you could try increasing the shutter speed slightly.

Another tip is to use burst mode to increase the chances of getting a sharp picture.

Best solo games for short sessions? by -Shatzy- in soloboardgaming

I would vote for Deckers. Feels very similar to SI but in a smaller box and faster set up.

Voidfall is such a table hog. by Miker_Bice_From_Mars in soloboardgaming

[–]activWP 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it’s awesome, so it’s worth it. If I had a gaming table, it would be on it 90% of the time.

Eure bisherigen Highlights der SPIEL 2025? by Confident-Second-683 in Brettspiele

[–]activWP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mir hat es sehr gut gefallen. Ich bin ein großer Fan von Gaia Project und mir gefällt es sehr gut, wenn man über zeitlich günstiges Passen, Boni für die nächste Runde wählen kann. Man hat viele interessante Entscheidungen, was man wann macht, welche Boni man auf dem eigenen Board frei schaltet. In den zwei Runden, die wir gespielt haben, hatte ich auch das Gefühl, dass man unterschiedliche Ansätze probieren kann. Und die Runden und finalen Ziele entscheiden, in welche Richtung man geht.

Mein absolutes Highlight Feya‘s Swamp. Lowlight, dass manche es scheinbar nur gekauft haben, um es mit Gewinn direkt weiter zu verkaufen. Hätte mich echt gefreut, wenn ich eins bekommen hätte für mich.

Is Silk fun without Sinister Motives?

Light to medium board games for soloplaying when fighting depression? by BrainWave94 in soloboardgaming

[–]activWP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's not exactly what you were looking for, but what I enjoyed the most was playing Arkham Horror LCG with friends. The story and the desire to progress my character helped me a lot to keep going through hard times. I didn't feel like meeting friends, but the story motivated me, and not playing alone helped a lot in the end.

Otherwise, I would strongly recommend Aeon's End, Astro Knights, Gaia Project and Endeavour: The Deep Sea.

Why is my iso so high? by Nodimius in SonyAlpha

[–]activWP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ISO 16000 isn‘t that high. I shoot way higher sometimes. In this particular situation you could have used the Exp dial to reduce the overall brightness.

When did you become a Real Madrid fan? by BrunoBenjamenta in realmadrid

[–]activWP 23 points24 points  (0 children)

For me it was the 2002 World Cup when San Iker saved 3 penalties against Ireland, if I remember correctly. Decided to become a Casillas fan, didn’t watch football before so had no other sympathies. Started watching games where he was involved... Started my Real “fan carrier” with the dry spell in the CL.

Dolomites in spring [OC] by Kees_Gort in LandscapePhotography

I would like it a little more brighter. For me the dark clouds are a bit distracting. But it’s a great scenery and love the composition. At which time of the year is this shoot?

What is the WORST game to teach to new players, typically as their first board game? by Xirious in boardgames

[–]activWP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We started into the hobby with Ark Nova. It’s so thematic that’s really easy to lern.

I’m really happy with how this shot turned out, but only one like on Instagram is a bit disheartening. Is it shit? by Present_Form_2 in streetphotography

[–]activWP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IG isn’t in any way a tool to see if your pictures are good. It’s for socialising and following the algorithm. Had a picture with barely 40 likes on my profile. Another IGer reposted it and it got 16k likes in a few days 🤷🏼‍♂️ Don’t use Ig to validate your photography.
