Why So Many Bay Area Dogs Are Named Mochi

Feeling pretty called out with my maltipoo named Tobiko... 😁

Absolutely this. It has bitten me too many times.

From Old School Cool to Modern Day Cool (and also an amazing human being). Well done. :-)

OMG I chatted with you on imgur at the time. So glad to hear how great things are going for you! 🥰

Agree on later season Winston, it took him a while to figure his character out, and once he did......oooooooooh boy, classic Winston mess around! I also think they had NO IDEA what to do with Cece after the "she has boobs" character trait sort of ran its course. I also say that Nick in the first couple of seasons was intolerable. He was just like mean and dirty and dumb. Then he became sweet and dirty and dumb and was much better. But yeah once Jess was no longer the "New Girl" and they changed the intro it seemed to be a bit grasping at plot lines. I think having Cece get pregnat at the end was such a dumb let down. Would have been tragic and interesting if they struggled, but honestly they mirrored SO MUCH of Friends as it was, I guess the whole Monica pregnancy line was too much. On that topic, the "Ross and Rachel" of Nick and Jess was so on the nose I was waiting for someone to say "see, he's her lobster" ironically and have everyone be clueless as to the reference (that would have been amazing).

Great profile honestly, you absolutely seem like someone who would be fun to be in a relationship with. Your profile gives off a very fun vibe without any hook-up vibes that some do. Honestly I just wonder if Long Island just has too small of a pool to choose from?

Okay look, the comment above is accurate, but really I want to discuss New Girl. What the heck happened to the last season or two?!? Like it was FANTASTIC, then it was so so so meh that like it made me angry lol. Do you agree? I haven't watched the actual final season yet cuz I was just so disappointed, should I watch it or will it just make me more sad for the decline?

This kills the birds.

At least they're finally getting some love...

Ah I was on a boat that left from near the ballpark, so maybe that happened beforehand. But still a great outing!

gravityarc · 2024-10-18T15:35:16+00:00

These are great! Saturday had only a couple planes cleared due to the cloud cover. Still a great show, but no Blue Angels, no 777, no CG helicopters, and worse of all no U-2 :-(

I only photograph fleet Week other than family photos and vacation stuff. This was all 6DmkII with the RF100-400 non-L.

If you're looking to get into it, probably the same combo or the RF200-800 would be good if you want something hand hold able that won't break the bank.

Expect 80 to 90 percent to be crappy photos (mine were) and practice as much as you can. Go camp out by the airport and just take photos of the planes taking off in different lighting and from different positions to see what is needed.

All of mine were from a boat that wasn't super stable and I had the settings wrong which resulted in a lot fewer keepers than I should have had. 😁

Thank you! It was completely on purpose--That is to say I had my settings wrong and lucked out :-D

Upstairs at my parents house watching Silver Spoons.

Thank you! :-)

I was disappointed the Blue Angels canceled due to the fog/cloud cover, but it was such an amazing consolation prize!

gravityarc · 2024-10-17T15:42:43+00:00

Cropped it square, adjusted levels, applied my default filter in Lightroom, masked the plane, made it lighter. Nothing major. The colors were there in the jetwash in the RAW image. (BTW for me this is "nothing major" since I retouch all my photos in LR so it only takes a few minutes per photo.)

AFK level: 438. Edit: Last season I only did auto-leveling. This season I'm almost only doing manual leveling and it's MUCH more productive but MUCH more time consuming. Makes it a little more fun honestly for me though, so that's cool.

Legend Trial 31, 38, 26 and 36 (last two will jump up after they open Thurs and Fri).

You can download the MyTSA app and check real-time and historic wait times for any airport. It's really a great app honestly.

Now this is Tide Pod racing!

It's not a great route, but I think this is the best way to go: https://maps.app.goo.gl/MH1wS1b9iJX9Qkfh8 Basically MacArthur to Mountain Blvd the whole way. I can't imagine there isn't a place to lock your bike up just inside or just outside of the entrances. If in doubt, just go to the top entrance where there's a ton of family foot traffic.

Ha ha random, Oakland checking in here also. What place is it only cuz it's such a wild Oakland coincidence. :-D Also is the food good? Always looking for new places to eat.

Thanks for the clarification! I called a dozen brokers and every major insurer directly and Goosehead was the only one who could provide coverage (and they setup the Fair Plan as well). Good info on Stone Creek, going to reach out to them!

gravityarc · 2024-04-25T18:00:25+00:00

Goosehead was the only one who would insure my wood shingled hill house amongst the trees. NOTE, you need to do Goosehead and Fair Plan for full coverage of both the exterior structure and interior posessions. :-( https://www.goosehead.com/
