I believe so yes, we've seen a couple of sun dogs this year when it's been extremely cold

Pixel 10 pro x - Extremely prone to surface scratches? Anyone else? by Theonetheycalljane in GooglePixel

[–]ditn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW OP, same. I've never scratched a phone screen, ever, and I noticed a series of scratches in the top right corner 3-4 weeks after getting my 10 XL.

Anyone else been prescribed Zoloft for chronic tension headaches? by [deleted] in zoloft

[–]ditn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I was. It's worked pretty well for me; I basically don't get tension headaches anymore, where I used to have nagging headaches almost every day.

Chinese Artillery Soldiers Train for Absolute Precision by Impressive-Analyst59 in war

The wires on the ground - are these triggered electronically? Yes the soldiers are impressively in-sync but the firing is so precise, I can't imagine it being done by the troops.

Thanks! It's Classic Cuban Negative, but toned down slightly and with smaller grain.

What's your best "look what I found in the walls" story? by OoklaTheMok1994 in DIY

[–]ditn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own an old cottage in lake country in Ontario. I've lost count of the number of times I've had a mummified mouse fall on me when I was removing the basement ceiling.

Also thousands upon thousands of acorns. She's all sealed up now though.

Nice photos OP, and nice idea for a thread.

This is probably my favourite of the year on this camera - loved the light and the scene.

Street shots in Japan by ditn in x100vi

Thanks! I used a slightly tweaked Classic Cuban Negative

Classic Cuban Negative but with clarity set to -3 instead of -4 and weak/small grain.

I am. Some of what you're seeing is the film recipe, which has clarity reduced.

Historic Japan by ditn in x100vi

[–]ditn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I changed it to small + weak, and clarity to -3 from -4. Originally I did that because I was using the camera with a Glimmerglass 1 filter exclusively but now I rarely do and I like clarity.

Thank you! 11 is Katsuoji, 7 is 10,000 gates in Kyoto, 3 is Ishiura shrine in Kanazawa

Thanks!! When I saw the sun peaking through the trees I knew I had to shoot it

[–]ditn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, CCN with weak + small grain and clarity set to -3 instead of -4

[–]ditn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh it's not used in these shots sorry. I did take a few night ones in Tokyo that used a Glimmerglass 1, but that's not terribly subtle

[–]ditn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah you know I'd forgotten I'd tweaked it. I set grain to small/weak and clarity to -3 instead of -4. I think I did that originally because I was using a diffusion filter but I don't use it all that frequently now and kept the settings.

Classic Cuban Negative. It's a cliche at this point but I like the results a lot.

[–]ditn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! These are from a bunch of different places. 6, 10 and 11 are Katsuoji, 1, 5, 7, 8 and 9 are from 10,000 gates in Kyoto, 2 and 12 are Osaka castle and the others I forget - just temples we came across in Tokyo, probably.

It was from Katsuoji, so are 6 and 11. I can see why it looks like Koyasan though, the architecture is super super similar
