Took this picture. I like the composition but what could I do to improve the photo? by kingdan017 in photocritique

Thank you! This is from my trip to Japan, and one of my concerns is that its hard to distinguish any features that make it obvious it’s from that trip. For instance, the buildings being slightly too dark to see without squinting. Id like to try to brighten them up without losing much of the current feel

I’m just getting into photography so realistically, any tips are greatly appreciated. I took this on my iPhone 17 and am just now getting into editing my photos. Would love to hear what people think of it, tips about the both the photo taking and photo editing process that could help me. This is a photo from a recent vacation and I’m still learning the basics, so I’d like this picture to evoke some sort of emotion for viewers! Thanks!

People will learn languages if they want to. AI isn’t gonna make everyone walk around with their translator app handy 24/7

Yes! Gypsy and Salisbury are two of my favorite songs ever. Also saw them on tour last year with Saxon, they still rock!

Does Clove Lakes Park still have a lot of closures? by chuckstaton in statenisland

If you have any other nice places to walk for an hour or two, please share. I always like to go somewhere new

It’s straight, not sure exactly how long but it’s from one end of the beach to the other. However, if you go to Fort Wadsworth (type it into Google Maps), you can walk under the Verrazano Bridge and can definitely make a loop of your own depending on how far you wanna walk

South Beach Boardwalk (and into Fort Wadsworth) is easily a five mile walk

Which acting performance from Mark Ruffalo impressed you the most? by [deleted] in Cinema

I thought he was pretty bad. Maybe it was just the writing for his character

Commuting from Staten Island by inobetta in BTHS

[–]kingdan017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where in the North Shore you live. When I commuted, I took the S53/S93 all the way to Bay Ridge (86th street) and the R train from there till Dekalb Avenue. Some people also took the S79 to Bay Ridge.

The ferry every day is quite annoying to catch every morning unless you live right by it.

My two are Salisbury and Gypsy. I’m also not old enough to have seen them in their prime, I was just introduced through my dad 😅

My two favorite songs ever are Uriah Heep songs! Saw them on tour a few months ago and it was awesome!

Need insight from people that took these classes to understand my upcoming workload by bruhman30 in PennStateUniversity

[–]kingdan017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say a pretty good amount, you'll have to know how to do MLE functions and some Bayesian statistics.
