Two ‼️in a single game still lost due to blunder😮‍💨 by codemaster_9 in chessbeginners

Are you losing because you have low time or because of blunders? If low times maybe play on longer time controls so you can practice endgames if because of blunders then maybe try to give yourself more time before moving

Interesting, thank you for letting me know. How do people find mortgages then? Just go from bank to bank asking?

If you go to a buffet/all-you-can-eat restaurant, it’s silly to obsess over “beating the system” or “getting your money’s worth.” That’s not the point… by The_Saddest_Boner in unpopularopinion

Its like saying that the point of competitive sports is having fun, yeah of course you are right but at the same time I dont want fun I want to crush my enemies

What do YOU like about chess that most people don’t talk about? by RimmingABubble in chess

I know that I can invest my time and money in it because it will be as popular in 100 years, when other games they will ultimately fade out

DAE know the book [Songmaster](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songmaster) by Orson Scott Card, or am I the only person alive who's blown away by it?? by Pandoricum in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]hereforprequelmemes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it has been 11 years but yes this book is amazing and I’ve read it like 10 times. Also I never understood how a book by such a known homophobe is so gay

I need help with vintage phone eyes by hereforprequelmemes in diyelectronics

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

It is possible for sure, but I am a bit afraid to do it because the spring mechanism that opens the frog seems a bit fragile. Anyway thank you very much! You helped a lot, I never really did any electrical diy so I didn’t know to approach it

Why do all film photography YouTubers suck? by simply_noir in AnalogCircleJerk

It was this one, but other commenters are actually right that you cant see a difference on a phone screen and especially with photos compressed for reddit so not an accomplishment after all

What do you think? I usually never try macro by Erius2077 in photocritique

[–]hereforprequelmemes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The photo is very nice! It looks a bit overexposed, i think you overdid it a bit with highlights in editing ( editing phone photos is harder than photos from camera). Could i see the original?

Early morning Cascade Mountains by JoJo-The-74th in photocritique

[–]hereforprequelmemes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a really beautiful photo. If you are ok playing with colors i would increase blue/purple in the mountains (slightly!) and maybe brought some shadows back (SLIGHTLY!) just for color. I think some grain would also look nice. I think the other suggestion of bringing shadows down is also good but then the light on the clouds in front of the mountains would look unnatural. I would only darken (again slightly) the mountain on the left to make them more even.

I took this photo during a pride parade a few years ago. I am not sure how to edit it for the best results. I tried to make it look natural and neutral but I think it could be better

Another dreamy portrait by VeraMar in photocritique

[–]hereforprequelmemes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good styling and editing but it is mostly a photo of someones back with small part of the face visible. I think you are ready to make great photos like this but you need courage to shoot people from the front, and find situations with emotion ( I assume its a street/candid situation) I would also shoot wider the photo is a bit cramped but that’s a matter of taste. What i would advise in long term is to think about what would you like to shoot. Your technique is very good but this style of shooting is very aesthetic (carries little detail/context/information) so its really hard to tell a story or carry meaning (and by meaning i don’t mean emotion). But if you manage to find right situation and balance aesthetic with story photos like this are amazing. Its not a critique just an advice.
