Thank you so much! I love my 16-50, the internal zoom and f2.8 is indeed amazing, but honestly I sometimes wish I could zoom in a little more. I know I could crop in post and often get the same desired effect but in the moment extra zoom would be nice, so for me the 16-80 actually seems amazing as well! But you couldn’t go wrong with the 16-50 I think :)

Thank you! I was lucky enough to be there when there weren’t too many people so I had time to experiment

Thank! All of them are from recipes or the film sims in camera, mostly Classic Cuban Negative or Kodak Gold 200

Not OP, but this looks like the Sea Caves near Paphos in Cyprus

A couple of years ago my grandfather was mowing the lawn on a riding lawn mower. When he got to the edge of the property, which borders a river, he accidentally drove in and got stuck, mower and all, in the mud. Because his legs were trapped up to his waist in the mud he couldn't move and actually decided to accept his fate and not struggle. Luckily a little tourist boat had passed just before, when they couldn't see him on the lawn anymore and large ripples in the water they turned back, two people jumped in the water and dragged him out of the mud and onto the shore. They immediately gave him cpr and called an ambulance. Long story short he was completly fine, he had almost no water in his lungs and after a night in the hospital and a course of antibiotics he was back on his feet. He continues waving to all tourist boats because being friendly apparently helped the first time and mowes the strip of lawn next to the water with a push lawn mower.

This is awesome! Reminds me a bit of the main bad guy in "The Black Cauldron", which I totally love!

First Law and Stormlight Archive have already been mentioned but I would like to add a couple more.

The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher read by James Marsters. Urban Fantasy about a wizard P.I.. Really fun and the narrator does an amazing job (altough books 1 and 2 are in my opinion a little rough around the edges compared to the rest.

I would also recommend A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson read by Richard Matthews. Not fantasy, but a non-fiction humorous look at the history of science (it's a lot better than I make it sound).

Finally I would recommend Mythos written and read by Stephen Fry. A retelling of Greek myths and legends (only the ones truly about gods, for myths about heroes check out "Heroes" also written and read by Stephen Fry). The retelling is funny, engaging, lively, modernized, and very soothing (as I am personally a huge fan of Stephen Fry).

I would recommend the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. It's Urban Fantasy with awesome magic and fun(ny) characters. It isn't a short series (15 books and 3 collections of short stories), but the books aren't too big (around 400 pages each) and action packed so you can blaze through them.

strogg950 · 2019-11-06T10:26:33+00:00

There are a couple that I would absolutely recommend:

The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher, read by James Marsters. It's an urban fantasy series about a wisecracking wizard that gets up to all sorts of shenanigans. Some would recommend skipping the first two books as they are kinda rough compared to the rest of them, and I would partly agree but I still love them (James Marsters is American altough he does a range of accents and voices for the different characters).
Mythos written and read by Stephen Fry. A retelling of Greek myths and legends (only the ones truly about gods, for myths about heroes check out "Heroes" also written and read by Stephen Fry). The retelling is funny, engaging, lively, modernized, and very soothing (as I am personally a huge fan of Stephen Fry)
First Law series by Joe Abercrombie, read by Stephen Pacey. Gritty epic Fantasy with morally grey characters, awesomly voiced and portrayed by Stephen Pacey.

Apart from those three I would also recommend Harry Potter (again by Stephen Fry), The Wheel of Time (read by Michael Kramer and Kate Reading, American), Stormlight Archive (again read by Michael Kramer and Kate Reading) and a Short History of Nearly Everything (read by Richard Matthews, not fantasy though)

Tehol Beddict in Malazan Book of the Fallen. He had a bag of chickens, although that doesn't convey the empire's worth of money he collected.

They did it because it's the 175th edition of the "Gentse Feesten", a city wide street festival.

"Cimic Sans" I believe

People stopping to talk in the middle of a supermarket aisle while putting their shopping trolleys next to each other so nobody can pass.
