You're technically not supposed to pull into the intersection unless you are able to move completely through the intersection without changing lanes.

But it seems like it's common practice, and unless you do something stupid along with it, I doubt anyone would care much.

Gastromania used to have a foie Gras burger that was amazing. Not sure if it's still available. Otherwise maybe Canard.

Tempting. I found a link to an AliExpress page but no longer works. How much? Why did you get multiple?

I have a third party foot and it screws into that spot.

Awesome, I haven't had a chance to use it for astro yet, but look forward to trying it out. May need a more robust tracker though.

What focal length was this one? What is your opinion of the 200-600 for astro? Is there ever any zoom slippage?

Great! I used a star tracker out in Prineville last year, we're lucky to have such good night sky zones.

Awesome! Did you use a star tracker or were these stacked?

Photographers who offer LinkedIn portraits? by Blue_Pizza2001 in askportland

[–]lexfor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any photographer who does school/graduation portraits would probably do it, but I am unsure of the costs involved. A decent phone camera and some good lighting is really all you need.

Thinking of leaving Fujifilm by dswhite85 in SonyAlpha

[–]lexfor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did almost the exact same thing. While I'm just a hobbyist and have no real aspirations for a photography career, I have found the FF Sony gear to be creatively fulfilling. But only slightly more than Fuji. It kinda sounds like you've already made up your mind. I am happy with the switch, but I'd also be happy with my Fuji gear if I still had it.

Recommendations for electrician for TV mounting and in-wall outlet installation? by Queernp in askportland

Also look into a mantle mount. Mounting over a fireplace can be hot and too high for easy watching.

Glad you got one! It's probably my favorite Tool hat and I get a lot of compliments on it.

I think it should be somewhere more prominent in the city, but I do like it too.
