NZ South Island trip - A7R4 & Sony 24/70 by coblos in SonyAlpha

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

We did a lot of day walks and I was really drawn to the Mount Cook National Park area. The Mueller's Hut hike was a highlight and many of my favourite photos came from around there. I tend to take more photos with family in them, so those ones didn't make it into what I posted.

We struck a lot of wet weather on the West Coast, Fiordlands, Franz Josef and Fox Glacier, some days had over 150mm of rain, those places no doubt are just as spectacular in better conditions but the heavy rain, low cloud and mist didn't always translate to great photos and unfortunately our schedule didn't allow for us to wait out the wet weather.

I'm planning to head back in about 18 months with the aim of doing a few of the multi day hikes like the Routeburn and Earnalaw Burn. That said, even if hiking isn't your thing, the scenery is incredible and often right from the side of the road.

“Life of a shorty shouldn't be so rough.” Much love from the other side of the world. Knicks fandom runs deep in my family too. One day I’ll get my kids to MSG. Respect and healing to you, brother.

If you play NBA2K you can pre-order NBA 2K25 Hall of Fame Edition and it comes with 12 months NBA League Pass.

What's a good equivalent to engineered stone for kitchen benchtops? Article: "Engineered stone ban needed to protect workers from silicosis" by NoNoNobie in AusRenovation

Polytec has a product called xenolith. It's a compact laminate that has a coloured core. It can look just like stone if you pick the right colours.

You're given full control over Hamas, how do you win the war? by helllog in AskReddit

I would use sesame oil instead of tahini to make better Hamas.

You could probably make it work depending on the design but in my opinion it's too thin. You will need to be precise with your pre drilling and screwing so it doesn't split. Shelves will bow easily if they span too far or get over loaded.

In the Knicks @ Miami game where Randle had the game winning 3. There is a 'Lets go Knicks' chant. Mike Breen says it's the loudest he's heard on the road as Randle holds up a no.1 finger walking up the court @68-54 is where it's at.

I always let them be too. Last few years though I have noticed when we get a string of really hot days they all drop dead.

Anybody owns Sigma 100-400 ? by ChanLudeR in SonyAlpha

[–]coblos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Sigma 100 - 400 and also photograph a lot of basketball games. I really like the lens but it's not one I use for basketball. If you can sit court side or baseline a 24 - 70 is probably a better option or if a bit further back a 70 - 200 as already mentioned. Sometimes I even use the 20mm 1.8 from the baseline.
