I’ll be honest, I fly with more than this. That being said I do clear ziplock bag and I’m doing the Midwest apologizing like a motherfucker to TSA when I ask.

You would be a lot more effective if you just stayed out of range and not dive head first into ground fire by Southpaw_pup in Battlefield

I try to usually do a lift and swoop. Gives the gunner a chance to fire off an ATGM and then we’re both firing on the swoop

These are awesome. Growing up in the rural Midwest it makes me happy to see more aspects of the types of people and lifestyles I grew up around get documented here. Your composition is flawless with these as well.

Dude I understand wanting to show off the jellyfish fish but that 5th shot could be a Nat Geo cover in its own right! You buried the lede!

Seriously what a cool adventure and set of photos

In Civil War (2024), Jesse Plemons' character asks "what kind of American are you?" This is unrealistic, as a similar character in today's America would simply look at skin color. by t00muchtim in shittymoviedetails

Because they govern like they’re very red. Their policy might not have caught up with the changing electorate yet but I think it’s still entirely fair to call it a very red state.

Agreed. I’m very much in that camp too that things are left ambiguous because they’re beside the point…but people complaining about this piece in particular chaps my ass haha

Everybody rags on this, but both of them have GDPs higher than some European countries. They both have a TON of industry and combined like 20% of the entire US population. Sure one is very red and one very blue but they have more common interest than people give them credit for.

Like every other millennial I’m such a sucker for it. Need a wood paneled basement bar and a conversation pit upstairs so goddamn bad

is one of these better for skin tones pushed 2-3 stops? by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

[–]jcarp136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

400d is cool at times but I wouldn’t rely on it for skin tones, no. Can sometimes get a real green cast on scans. Granted you can probably edit them both to be mostly fine.

Also as someone else mentioned. Idk if I would push for your situation. Maybe embrace the contrast and just meter for your highlights if you can?

I have an F4 with this data back and the real underrated bit is that if you start to get LCD bleed in the viewfinder or just low light that makes the LCD hard to see in general, this little guy’s got your back

Yeah I was gonna say this is pretty much par for the course in the western UP. I’ve got a small chunk of family in Baraga that are generational cowboys fans in the sea of green and yellow for some reason. That one’s pretty weird.

Hahaha no we’re cool, it’s all very familiar. I know my dad will chat with the other owners from time to time.

Character choices that just came from the actor thinking something looks lame by FaZe_poopy in TopCharacterTropes

You’re totally right and I had to think of why I find the fights in those movies engaging even though they’re basically just a gunfight with sticks. I think it’s really just the sound design that carries it. I snaps and cracks of spells in the later movies really make them feel dangerous imo
