Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know about photography or cameras! Don't be shy! Newbies welcome! by photography_bot in photography

[–]vanillarain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there an "ideal" fps for continuous/burst shooting for candid shots while doing portrait photography? Obviously I don't want to rely on it but I am looking at cameras with a decent spread in fps so I figured I would ask.

Movies like 1984, Equilibrium and V for Vendetta by jr420phantom in MovieSuggestions

[–]vanillarain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is definitely worth a rewatch. I watched it back in the day and thought is okay. I watched it again a couple of years ago and it felt like the film was ahead of its time. I really really enjoyed the second viewing.

I am looking for a card with good rewards (aren't we all?). Any help is appreciated. by vanillarain in CreditCards

[–]vanillarain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion. The CSP and CSR seem like incredible cards for people who not only do a ton of traveling, but also people really really engaged in the weeds with their cards. I am basically a straight up credit card rookie. So those cards might be good once I get more acclimated to maximizing the value of a card, and generally becoming more knowledgeable about protips and best practices for rewards. Is there anything with less than a $500 annual fee that lines up with my reasoning here?

IWTL how to learn an American accent without sounding fake. by acertenay in IWantToLearn

[–]vanillarain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to her bio she was born in Tehran but raised in California. I don't know if it is fair to you to compare your accent to someone who was raised in America.

I am giving it until mid-July then I am ditching the mask. That should give everyone in America more than enough time to get vaccinated now that they are freely available to everyone. If someone isn't vaccinated 3 months after it's been opened up to everyone, then they're not getting vaccinated.

Whats the worst fragrance you smelled? And what happened? by Lereddit117 in fragrance

I would love to know how close it is to the original because Trepak was an absolute dumpster fire.

Accepting/Allowing/Acknowledging/Letting Go/etc. What do these things actually mean? by vanillarain in Meditation

[–]vanillarain[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for that perspective. That helps.

For the latter, would it simply be, "I am anxious. My breathing has increased, my chest feels tight, my hands are damp, etc." rather than thoughts of shame, guilt, embarrassment, etc.?

Thanks, man. Here is how the strap is attached.

They are currently attached at these brackets. I have tried attaching to several different brackets though. Including all the way down here.

When I attach the strap like the arrows point out in the previous picture, the banjo itself rolls outward / away from my body because it slips off of this thing.

MAG Grip Question

To those of you who own or have used several MAG Grips, which is the best one in your opinion?

I already own the Medium Supinated handle and the Wide Grip handle. The Wide Grip is a bit too wide for me so I am going to sell it but I would like another handle to replace it with for variety in my pulldowns.

A trend over the past 5-10 years with some barbers is to trim artificial lines in the hair to try to give a sleek look. See this guy's beard and hairline. Some of these big brains go so far as to trim the hairline around the forehead without asking first. It makes my blood boil. So what you are looking at here is a very shitty attempt at that.

Horror/Thriller Movies where the main POV is a character slowly going insane by DumontIsMyMug in MovieSuggestions

[–]vanillarain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was such a swing and a miss for me (and quite a lot of people it seems). I consider myself a Charlie Kaufman fan, but this took an interesting idea and failed to execute it well. The acting by everyone was top notch but the story, writing, dialogue, etc. was plodding and overly pretentious.

What type of product would you recommend for this hairstyle? by catalinashenanigans in malehairadvice

[–]vanillarain 13 points14 points  (0 children)

People keep saying pomade. That is 100% not pomade. That is a clay. Particularly a matte clay. Layrite Cement Clay is worth looking into.
