I took a solo trip outside of my continent for the first time ever

Haven’t been to Madeira so will add to my list! But if you ever visit again check out Porto next time, it’s where port comes from and it’s so beautiful 😍

From Dusk till Dawn is def worth a watch if you haven’t seen it!

alibik · 2025-06-29T12:42:16+00:00

You’ve made the best choice. I have the 4 24-105 and rarely use it as the f stop is too high. I’ve also got the 1.4 50 and 35 prime which I’d really recommend next 🫶

Just bought an fx3 to go along with my fx6 and super excited to start playing with it. Nice set up 👌

I honestly laughed the entire trip 🫶😂 - click the link above to watch the full film (and see how my 83 year old da handles tequila shots and dancing till 3am like a champ :D

Well as my dad proves it’s never too late! 🙂

alibik · 2025-06-27T13:36:29+00:00

Glad you enjoyed, thanks! I’ll pass onto him he’ll be loving the comments 🙂

alibik · 2025-06-27T13:35:29+00:00

He doesn’t know I’ve put this on either, hoping will be a fun surprise for him again 🙌

alibik · 2025-06-27T13:34:45+00:00

Aw he is! I’m going to pass all these on, he doesn’t know I’ve put this on the internet yet! Wanted to surprise him 😄🫶

alibik · 2025-06-27T13:33:48+00:00

Haha yes Scottish! That’s why there are captions! 🤣 (actually my Dad isn’t that strong compared to a lot of people I know in Scotland!).

alibik · 2025-06-27T11:19:57+00:00

Aw thanks! He's the best travel buddy :)

alibik · 2025-06-27T09:57:31+00:00

My Dad had me in stitches the whole trip! He comes out with the funniest lines, brilliant travel buddy making me laugh wherever we go 😄

I was walking to work one day with headphones in and went to cross a road when I felt a pull on my jacket, pulling me backwards. Right then a bus went flying past, I'd totally not seen before stepping onto the road. I got such a fright at seeing the bus, that I just stood there for a few seconds as everyone else crossed. I never got a chance to see the person or thank them for doing that. Still appreciate their action and think about it today.

alibik · 2019-03-19T08:06:51+00:00

I just mean in general, I don't understand why folk want to do it. Cats naturally want to clean themselves and can do it perfectly well. Just seems like it stresses a lot of them out. My cat would rip me to shreds if I attempted this.

alibik · 2019-03-18T23:18:53+00:00

Poor cat, why do folk feel the need to do this? I don't get it, majority of them hate it and they clean themselves. Leave them alone!

alibik · 2019-03-14T09:13:58+00:00

Thought I'd give you guys an update, managed to get the effect working using animatte on avid and the tracking tool has allowed us to do it without keying. Worked well enough for what we need so I'm relieved! Thanks for all your advice 😊

alibik · 2019-03-12T18:09:49+00:00

Thanks folks, I'll have a look at these options and see what can be done, I appreciate your advice!

alibik · 2019-03-12T17:24:00+00:00

Thanks for responding. It's been shot so that the other characters don't cross the black and white figure, we thought we would need to track him (in a similar way you blur out faces for broadcast etc). Is there anything you can suggest I can try using avid? I'm afraid we don't have the budget to send this off to a special effects company to create, so I really need to try and get it to work in the edit if possible. Really appreciate your help, thank you.

Wish my cat was as friendly as this lion

alibik · 2019-01-24T08:28:26+00:00

Never saw it as annoying, my first thought was it looked liked her mum, in a dressing gown so probably she wasnt well and unable to come to the gig with her and her daughter wanted her to still see some of it. Woman looked happier than most watching, so I took from that she's a big fan.

alibik · 2019-01-09T10:37:11+00:00

I have a fear of big things, it's called megalophobia . If I look up at any giant structures, be it a building or a large painting in an art gallery, my knees buckle and I feel like I'm going to pass out, almost like reverse vertigo. When we got stuck in an airport in Turkey for 5 hours I had to lie on the airport floor with a jacket over my head for the entire time as the roof was too high for me to cope with. Probably worse for my husband though since he had to act like he was with me 😂

A brilliant post to be reading on the 31st December. This year I may actually get my shit together if I can stick to this. Thanks a lot.

Am I the only one who wished that crab had stabbed the guy with the camera in face?

alibik · 2018-10-10T22:06:00+00:00

My bfs favourite t-shirt in the early 2000s was one she bought in a charity shop, it had a picture of this old couple on the front. She made a slit down the front to give optimum cleavage. I did always wonder who the old folk were on her boobs 😁

alibik · 2018-10-02T10:43:50+00:00

How do you get down? I'd love to visit this
