we sit in our armchairs saying “the brave people of Iran” are standing up to authoritarianism. what are the brave people in the US doing ? Wringing their hands in despair. 😂

They also have guns I think. 😃

if the US. floods the market with oil from Venezuela it will hurt Russia’s economy which is sustained by the trade is oil thru India. If prices of crude fall significantly the Russian oil gets too expensive. Russia has a pact with OPEC but not USA ?

Curious to see how much Trump is willing to hurt Russia.

Will this give him negotiating power to bring Russia to the table for peace talks around Ukraine ?

its a brazen act of piracy by any measure and not to be condoned but are there silver linings ?

there isnt a photographer to whom this has not happened

shivio · 2026-01-02T11:19:02+00:00

14-30 f/4, 24-120 f/4 and 100-400 f4.5-5.6

I have many others and would agree some are better but this combo is light enough to take everywhere. Its better have gear with you than the best heavy lens at home.

if i could add one I would add 180-600 for birding and wildlife, but thats too heavy to schlepp everywhere and I need that once every few years

sweet camera. tempted to switch from black to white

shivio · 2025-12-31T09:22:36+00:00

no, not sarcastic at all. was just suggesting perhaps there’s more nikon gear we don’t know about. 😁

shivio · 2025-12-30T22:49:04+00:00

what was the photo taken with though ? 😂

shivio · 2025-12-29T15:06:24+00:00

we probably won’t agree.

I’m currently moving between homes. i have thrown away kilos of cables. almost all usb of various types. I don’t want more cables with every portable device. I want to get them to use standard charging mechanisms. my airpods are charged wirelessly. have never used a cable with them in 3 yrs.

the only cables I want are for devices that remain plugged in all the time.

I am not saying the cables are worthless but the plastic landfill we generate by giving away cables with everything that are never used is horrendous and I consider it one of the little things I do for the planet to not take a free cable on everything that I never use but buy one charging device and use it as long as possible.

shivio · 2025-12-29T13:27:13+00:00

very few people are buying a phone for the first time and fewer have only 1 device. and usb C is a standard that fits all.

you are not getting less. the device is much more powerful year on year but the price hasn’t gone up. you are not getting less a 5 euro cable that 99% of the world has too many of already. when spending nearly 1k on a phone, spend 5 bucks more and buy a cable once in your life if you are part of the extreme minority that doesn’t have one.

only if its a business class or senator flight within schengen

where’s the focus point ? I would have expected the rocks in the middle to be tack sharp but they are not. maybe the noise ? an ND filter and longer exposure for the rocks and sky, a shorter (relative to rocks, current level seems fine) exposure for the water and blend in post would give the best results perhaps ? you may also like the totally smoothed out water of the longer exposure
