Still jealous
Heh
Bad timing yesterday. I got back to the āpartyā house and my friends sat me down and said āweāve all been talking and decided weād like to rent this place as a group for the next 4 years for uniā ā¦. We sold the house last week 
well then
Evening
evning
O have the best coworker ever
She bought me a few packs of lollies and Lego as a graduation gift
hell yeah
i got absoultly flamed at work today for no reason
was really random
OMG
MY FRIEND HAS THAT LEGO SET
i bought it for her
Honestly same
Apprently I have to cook dinner tonight fuck that
We have so much leftovers they can all have that
My legs are like jelly
Itās my favourite channel
Does anyone know of any Aussie photo comps that have free entry?
I have a couple entries in the Sony comp but Iām trying to get a few accolades
Bad internet
Mine does that occasionally and it leaves the tezt in the text box and I start flooding chats by accident
How was everyone's days
Thatās a cool looking Lego set
I love the second one a lot
Thanks. Yeah the sunset got boring quick because of low clouds, so I switched it up with the other two
my Lego F1 car is cooler tho
So much potential if you can get down to those rocks for a photo with sunset
Insta is confusing asf
it's cringe
Knew you'd know
I'm getting back into it and the map just clears everything tbh
Right spot wrong time
I keep track of basically all of them
Right about now is when all of them are closing
Are you over 18 or under?
Under 18 so I can do the youth comps
I entered 3 shots into the Sony youth comp each of them is unique in their own way
Ah same here, yeah you've timed it pretty poorly lol
A lot of contests are closing
oh wait I think the heritage one is still open

hold on I'll give you the link
DC warehouse also runs a monthly comp
A different theme each week, you can submit an image each week
the overall winners are chosen from all the submissions in the month
Good prizes on that
NPOTY and WPOTY are closed rn iirc
But photographer of the year Australia is open rn
entry fee of 20 on that iirc
yeah lol I give up on the youth comp
if my images that have been in museums and already nominated in international comps are good enough to even get shortlisted then I'll pass this year lmao


Iāve had some of my work published by one of the most senior officers in the Australian Defence Force I thought that was pretty cool
I know two of the people who were there when his dad died thatās kind of a flex
Iāve known one of the scientists Steve Irwin was with when the stingray got him since I was a little fulla
Always gonna be a legend
They could never make me hate him
My grandad was the skipper of the boat that took Steve to the medevac chopper
That's cool
He deserves to be on our currency I signed that petition when it was put up he was a genuinely great man
Real
Super passionate about his friends, his family, nature and all wildlife he was a solid bloke
I respect him but I dunnoā¦
I wish Steve was still around he would be such a good grandad to Bindi and Chandlerās daughter
I feel like he put a lot of animals through stress unnecessarily for the tv
My opinion
He was super passionate about protecting wildlife and researching crocs
Was it all that necessary to catch snakes and put them in pillowcases just for the cameras
And purposely aggravate them so get entertaining responses? Yeahhhh. I mean everything he did seems to have been āfor the greater goodā but from what Iāve seen, couldāve been done with a bit more respect and compassion to the animals
At least his family continued the conservation work and research and theyāve done quite a lot of good
I hope all the stuff I ordered shows up soon Iāve got a trip coming up
I donāt know why I have to sign for an 8 dollar shutter release remote and cable that I got off eBay
Those rocks donāt see much action tbh, thatās why I didnāt bother tooo much. thereās a few spots further down Iād like to try
The tide moves toward the beach shown on the opposite side of the photo so it doesnāt do anything cool haha
I'm not talking photos of the rocks, I mean of those trees half underwater from the rocks, being lower down and close to water level
Ohhh. Gotcha, Iāll give that a go next time if I can. Ride was pretty high this time to do that I reckon
Man I am running so fucking late
bit hot coming from you aj
Hey atleast you got up semi on time
I was 4 hours late lmfao
@frozen lantern
here's a good one
its the monthly one I mentioned
im on a good run for this month, these 2 got short listed
Yeah cheers Iāll have a look
Their insta posts the shortlist every week
results announced around the 7th of the next month
How many shots can I submit?
1 per week
for each theme
You got the overarching theme, and then the 4 sub themes. One subtheme each week
This weeks was earthy colours iirc
Shit I havenāt got many of those
Not too many of those subjects this way itās mostly green
Grad party thing
Oh yeah the year 12s are just about to finish
Mm
Iāve only got an 8 week term
Iām on my second week of holidays
Nah I'm vic
Iām qld
ew
I didnāt know nsw and viccy were aligned
I like how youāre not aligned with qld it means that when I go on postings in nsw and viccy I get a week off school
You're too old now smeet
im actually negative in annual leave technically
because i took a day off like 3 weeks into my job because i was going to be too drunk to come in
i have a good boss
I need to take time off someday, finally got something in place to cover when I'm out.. got 17 weeks lol
Still surprised Ive not been forced to take it, so alternative is I eventually find another job and get big payout
No more biology ever
I told Mrs Aunty I would make cheesecake for her tomorrow⦠I got home and mum says Iām too tired to drive to get ingredients:(
surprised they havent tried to pay you out like half of it or something either. what kind of place do you work for lol
I'm just as surprised, a lot of it built up during the Covid era when it wasn't worth me taking time off, ever since things are just always too busy, have no one to directly cover when I'm gone lol
Only benefit is taking single days off at last minute is usually fine, great for storm chasing... Just need one to chase
I've had days off, had leave over the last few years, but yeah basically. Longest holiday I've had in many years is like 5 days
Oh I know lol
But as I said, seems to be options now for me to take more time off, I just gotta get planning now
Whether that be NZ, or something Aus, who knows
me and some mates are thinking of a lads cruise soon and a trip to brisbane. Im so keen on a cruise. Cheap and pretty much a bender
Ah nice, yeah I did one of those many years ago with some friends
It didn't go anywhere, just ocean, basically 4 day/3 night pub crawl lol
Only time sober was the first hour on the cruise
yeah thats all we want to do
We just thought fuck it, cairns to melb or something and fly back to cairns, drive home
a bit scary thinking that these things have pokies... 3 nights in close proximity š«
Fortunately for me I've never been one to gamble a whole lot
The issue was that alcohol, if memory serves me correctly, I spent more on alcohol than the cruise itself..
Oh golly gosh
haha is that even with a drink package?
They had no drink packages, it was a 3 night comedy cruise that didn't go to any ports
It'd be easy to get your moneys worth to put it lightly on something that short, longer cruises people tend to ease up as time goes on, so cruise makes more money offering it
I'd like to prove you wrong, but I dont have time for a longer cruiser
lol
In my younger years perhaps I could, now I actually want to enjoy travelling and not being drunk 24/7
There's no way i'd ever travel to nice places and getting shit faced. I think my mates are in the same boat and thats why we chose a cruise
"In the same boat", nice unintentional pun
But yeah enjoy if you do go, is a lot of fun with good friends, you get entertainment, it's great
Have fun:)
Unless you're like the couple on the cruise I went on, broke up on day one... No idea how they handled sharing a cabin after that
I broke up with my ex on an island... thankfully on the final night
Duh they didnātā¦. 24 hour bar?thatās where one of them was
Oh gosh
Only break up Iāve had was with a guy I wasnāt dating 
I dont know how that works
He said āyouāre a shitty girlfriend, Iām breaking up with youāā¦. I never said yes to dating him lmfao
Yeah because that makes an awful lot of sense

@late parcel williamtown monday next week
to see the P1
and then thursday as well with some mates
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Maybe I can go
Given I graduate on Friday. But I still have hsc to study for
Wish I could come :(
mmmmmmm
I've only had two, one was perfectly fine like I'm literally on the phone with her right now and the other was a bitch
She's lesbian now
mine was that guy i didn't realize it's a guy until a week after and brokeup with them
My mate sent me screenshots of my gf at the time hitting on him. Broke up with her that night, even though my mate liked her he was a bro about it
Was it over text or in person
I dumped my ex over text never talked to her again never looked back either
No loss though
This
Text, we're in the same classes and I haven't said a word to her since then
I found out some stuff as well, like AJ said, no loss
same king
bit hard for me tbh
Mine was over a call but we're still close friends, our call TN showed that
we're each other's comfort person which is really lovely
Yeah Im not that selfless
One month since we broke up this time next week š
Still sucks though, my ex moved 2000km away a year after I left her for a completely unrelated reason
I couldn't handle doing that
Never seen her since
It is what it is
It's quite interesting
Not much has changed between us, cause we broke up for mental health reasons
We're still really close and spend time with each other every once in a while, not as much as we used to but still pretty often
yeah no I haven't said a word
We agreed to meet up one month after we broke up, so Saturday next week is when it'll be, and see if we're mentally stable enough to commit to a relationship again
At all
mind if I ask what she did
Tbh I couldn't even tell you lmao
I won't go into details, but one random night she literally just said she didn't want to anymore
Out of nowhere
oh fucking hate that
Nothing that built up to it
3 days after we went out, that day went perfectly as well
And then all of a sudden
She's lesbian now tho and her friends hate her so it's ok
poof it's over
you good man?
Anyway, it is what it is
It is what it is, gg go next
I couldnāt bear to have a comfort person thereās a lot of intense things Iāve experienced and I wouldnāt want someone that I care about to have the burden of knowing
I was quite fucked the days following though
but then I found out some stuff and yeah now I'm all good
Good
I canāt commit to a relationship anytime soon Iāve got some issues that Iāve put aside for to long that I gotta deal with first
RIP
gg go next
I give up in HS
meh time to go back to the gynm
Who dat


Oh
180 DL @ 70kg ggez
I was shooting for 200 by the end of this year, but this stupid foot injury
That's the thing, it's more for minor stuff, like today she was just stressed out cause she said to one of our friends she'd go watch his netball game (our work hosted a tourney) and she forgot and thinks he's mad at him
It feels a big weird to me cause I still want her back cause she's such a legend
and it kinda feels like the guy I trying to talk to her
also kinda felt like he waited till we broke up tbh
Obviously I can't change what she does but I hope they don't get together
I forgot youāre a gym rat
I never really got into gym, I did Muay Thai until I got a second degree wrist sprain 6 days before my biggest event of the year where I had a big bloody job
That's one thing that won't ever change 
ok sunflowerseeds as lunch wasn't a good idea
No matter who I'm with
Ah fuck, that's tough
I do think she just wants to be friends with the guy tho cause we've all been friends a long time and she has some stuff to me alot about how she's willing to try again with my mental health issues fixed
Muay Thai is cool
sorry I had to yap
i do kickboxing 
you're good
agaibn
Sal you've lost a fuck tonne of weight as well recently right?
I trained under some of the best
25kg or so ye
good shit
Wait until you get crippled 
that's almost half my bodyweight
from 157-155 to 130ish rn
Lmao
that's 1/3 of an oliv
Shooting for 100?
gonna end up losing 70kg over all
Solid
at 16% body fat
Jesus
Hell yeah brother
Already happened, been out for a month 
I've got leaner in that time though lmao
who can i @ myself with this
I gotta start training again I gotta start getting ready for recruit school I need to do some cardio and endurance work and a lot of swimming
As long as I donāt drink I think Iāll be alright
Always good to get your mental health in check before itās too late
I might cut down to 67
I don't like being below 70 though, makes me feel small
My physical health is great, like my abs show and shit but my mental health is hot garbage
I had to do therapy to deal with grief (did not work at all)
Neither
i
Iām just more broke now
i'm fucked mentally and physically
Fucking 240 bucks per appointment
yeah it's fucking horrible
Should be under 100
Should be subsidised lol
It is partly
fuck i can't move again
lads if i die, aj owes someone i know 300$ i will not tell who

I got therapy covered by eap and I have access to other mental health services for free because Iām ADFC which is Department of Defence
Q has done the most for me. Iād be gone without him. I mean I still get suicidal thoughts from time to time. But thereās absolutely no way I could follow through now
Yeah fair enough
We're always here for you too
Therapy is shit though it never helped me
Buying gear is my therapy
you can have my uhhh steam account
can I have your camera
If you have anxiety or depression there is meds that can help
it's dying
you won't be able to use it for more than 6 months
I like to drive for the mind. But sometimes I get the āthat pole looks smashableā and āif I keep accelerating through this corner with a rock wallā¦ā thoughts š sheāll be right
it's funny how my camera is dying with me 
If you die can I have any L series glass that you may or may not possess?
I'm trying to use medication as a backup, not as a crutch to get me through my depression
I get those too
i got a broken 80-200 you can take
What's important is telling yourself to ignore them
Yay a magic pipe
I just remind myself Iām not the only person on the road. My life may be shit, but the person in the lane next to me might have a kid, a partner, a good job
i got another magic pipe in my pants š (that lexion isn't allowed to have at all)
fuck
you have a partner and a good job
You should have a kid tho
Youāre lucky Iām not a minor
shut up nerd
not yet
Yes. I know I do. I am eternally grateful for him. My job though, fuck that shit lmfao
Lmao Iād have to wait until Januaryyyyyyy
do you make more then minimum wage
grr
And heād have to marry me first
is that his beliefs or yours?
Yes. But itās not worth it, itās a lot harsher on the body than people understand
gimme his @ gonna make him marry you like tommorow
Both
real
Weāve talked about it but waiting a few years lol
lol
makes sense
I believe in God, the God of the Bible. But Iām not āreligiousā per se. Religion is dumb.
I tried meds after years of anxiety. I went from having anxiety attacks usually everyday some days I was getting 5+ anxiety attacks after finding the right meds I rarely get anxiety anymore
Ah
i belive i need a cheese cake i wanna be a fat bastard for a day
I was going to make cheesecake but mum wouldnāt let me drive (for ingredients) because I looked too tired lol
lo
l
anxiety is something I'm struggling with. I know I have it, and it's pretty severe but my parents refuse to let me get medication for it. I'm tempted to ask the doctor tommorow to just get it for me, because while I don't get too many panic attacks I still feel anxious quite often. It definitely impacts my day to day life
The cheesecake I had the other day was absolutely fantastic and I belive that I need another one
You need a prescription for anxiety meds and they take time to kick in depending which ones youāre on. Escitalopram takes a few weeks to give you the full effects then thereās fluoxetine/Prozac that takes maybe a week or at least it did for me
I think anxiety is something I need medication for, but Id rather work out of my depression without pills. I don't want to base my happiness around taking a pill in the morning
Anxiety meds and a doctor allowing me to have a rubber band on my wrist or just something to fidget with is the best thing thatās ever happened for my anxiety that Iāve been dealing with for years
I have a bracket my ex girlfriend gave me that j wear on my wrist every single day. It doesn't leave my body. It's great to fidgit with and helps when I'm in class and get stressed for sure
Iām off yāall. Take care. Dms open if needed
Things like fluoxetine are technically antidepressants but theyāre prescribed for both anxiety and depression it helps with both I donāt know exactly what they do but theyāre part of a class of meds called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or ssriās
Sleep tight
Catch ya
You know what I mean tho
Basing happiness off a pill doesn't seem right to me
Lemme just quickly say
Think of it like this. Take the pill to get rid of a depressive block, allows you to find joy in actions and life. Stay in a rut and you canāt see the good, just dig deeper into a dark pit. It could be worth it to take a few pills short term
I have rubber bands on my pen and wrist that I fidget with in class or I have a fidget toy to play
I wear rings lol
I'm not in a dark place much anymore, really glad of that. My ex really got me out of a shit hole and helped me actually reach out to get help. So grateful for her every day I love that girl so much
I don't believe I need pills atm
I just need to continue my upwards trend
I never said anxiety meds made me happy and honestly Iād be lying if I said they did because they donāt the easiest way to describe it is with a scale
Mega anxiety:
Before anxiety meds
After anxiety meds
Normal:
Below:
Me too. Prescription meds are just really fucking helpful in making that happen
š¤
Itās midnight so itās lucky Iām on school holidays
I'm out too Aussies
DMS are always open if you need to vent š
Sleep tight gang
Catch ya
Nooooo
Itās thursday
I forgot I have to leave early on Thursday to find a park because of bin day
NOOOOO
I appreciate that the server has a lounge but for Australians
We deserve our own spot
They had to contain us
I actually rarely talk in general lounge now
This is more upperclass anyway. We're too good for them 
It started cause we organised a meet lol
went out into sydney for the whole day just taking pics
fun time
Yes, that 24-70 seagull photography, people wasting money on 150-600's for birds smh
tsk tsk tsk
lmao was funny seeing all the different height perspectives
Damn it I wouldnāt be able to go
Iām from Queensland and I only go to nsw for cadet activities
Im from alice
I had a trip planned already
so it was conveniant
Robin and Beau drove up from canberra as well
I had to fly down to Sydney a couple months back but the only time I wasnāt under supervision of cadet staff was when I was on the plane and walking through the airport to the baggage claim so I wouldnāt be able to do anything with other photographers
Iām feeling too aussie I had some milo powder and it was heaps good now Iām having fruit loops and a can of pasito
Has to be atleast 10 spoonfuls of Milo to be Aussie
Last one was opportunistic and not planned that far ahead, just a few people who'd be in the area, more actives in Syd, so just came down to when people were travelling here for other reasons
You donāt waste those two spoons of milo either you eat that shit straight
Might fuck around and fly down for a meet too if thereās one in future
Only time Iāve been to Sydney was to watch an international counterstrike tournament 
forgot I have plans lol nvm
Also the grimace shake and meal is coming to our McDonald's next Friday
Enjoy your insider info
It looks like fucking ass tho
Merry Christmas
Guess it's time to break out the Christmas music
BOO YAH BITCHES IM DONE SCHOOL FUCK SCHOOL IM FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Don't you dare point those bright lights up at my astro dark site 
Too late...
š
Well jokes on you, this weekend is already a write off for astro due to cloud
We never get flyovers or anything
WOOOOOOOO
I got put into lockdown last because 8 fucking f16s and 2 c17s flew over the base I was on
That was skitz
yipee
Also did you see Drak the MWD retired š„²
I got to see him at some point. Canāt remember where
no I've never heard of him
Omg the good boi

My photo isnāt sending thougghhh
My photo still wonāt senddddd

awwwwww
cute doggo
i didnt see the post damn
its favourited on my instagram
follow deserved aj
honestly looks like it's gonna be sick
don't have my 70-300 ATM tho it's still broken š
Life Through Optics liked my Insta story a couple weeks ago
I mean he does have a lot of followers
My last two stories got heaps and heaps of likes
I donāt even know what mine is
Hawk display over sydney harbour tomorrow
Got to watch hawks flying formation a few days ago. Was driving though
where at?
maitland?
Saw that
Would go watch the roulettes but my 70-300 is mf only atm
I think I'm just gonna buy a new one
The lens itself is a good lens but the AF not working sucks
sharp asf
good choice if ur in melbourne
150-600 is overkill for anything except military spotting
Yeah I'm gonna try find one second hand if I can
There's barely any military shit in Melbourne
It's a bit sad for me cause I love this stuff
the weird aperture is the only crap part, but I don't do too much low light shooting anyway
And ai denoise exists
Anyways goodnight Aussies sleep tight
Sleep well
Morning
morning aj
Morning
Morning dudes and dudettes
morning kings and queens
Already hard at work on our public holiday šŖ
double pay
Why are calendars so fucking hard to wrap
Also imma pass out in graduation. Why am I front row in the stage for 3 hours š
bruh whattt
I also canāt find my stockings. Oops. Might have to buy some
Goodluck
Why does it have to be a 3 hour program
Just give me my papers and let me leaveeeeeeeeeee
so true
and i was the one who had to give a speech š
after that i just wanted to die lol
Youāll live. You only have to ever do it once
Imagine getting a public holiday today
Imagine liking AFL enough to make a holiday out of it
Suck shit Iām on school holidays I donāt need a public holiday
idc about the reason, I want public holiday
Itās hot today and I have to wear fire retardant stuff and big leather boots because Iām shooting with the navy (not shooting with my camera Iām shooting rifles with them)
dang thats gonna suck
Ouch
I enjoyed the cool weather yesterday before it starts warming up again, barely cracked 10 degrees, it was nice
Weāre shooting electronic F88s and because Iām media my life becomes a bit difficult regarding phones
Itās super illegal to take photos inside the facility weāll be in so no phones for a few hours
I work 5 shifts a week tho lol
I mow my lawn once a fortnight
that's crazy
Until summer, then it becomes weekly
living life on the edge
I can hear the roulettes but can't see them fully
No where near enoufh reach to shoot from my balcony haha
They have to head back to sale so I'll be patient
It's an r50, worst case it's probably light enough to fall like a feather anyway /s
honestly probably is
The fact I can hold it with one finger shows that
lens is pretty beefy tho, probably acting as a counterweight
what 300mm looks like
manual focus so I don't think it's focused great
I like the composition just more zoom would be nice
they flew over my house rahh
Can you tell I don't do aviation very often
I think I'll go to an airshow soon, or maybe just the airport nearby and just practise taking photos
I've got the reach for it, even though it's currently only mf it's still useable, my skills just aren't there
Iām one of our best shots as we discovered
I was getting 210mm groups with an EF88 at 100 metres from prone
yeah this is like 15km away lol
I threw a comp because I really wanted to do a double tap while I was shooting a semi automatic assault rifle
I fucked up my competition grouping by intentionally doing a double tap
silly boy
fair enough
I look forward to the game tmmr
Whole fanily will be watching but idk if I will be able to deal with that much noise lol
Whoās playing
I have no idea what went on while I was on base I canāt really look at discord there the mobile service is pretty bad
Hot chips at the footy game
12 days till Bathurst rahh
Forgot about that
Usually just watch the last 1/3 or so, last year's wasn't that exciting, hopefully this year more so
It's something I enjoy leaving in the background
Like I'll chuck it on the tv and do work on my laptop
Would have been interesting if the snow up the mountains was pushed back a couple of weeks
Ooh true
I hope it rains for the race
Will make the entire thing worth watching tbh
Graduated 
Congrats
Now to figure out how to fix my life hmmmmm
Yipeeeee
proceeds to eat snags for dinner
Iāll send you the application for the engadine maccas if youād like
If you work there you can get us the answer to the age old question
tp??
teleport
Oh lol
escapee
@obsidian jetty Australian spotted
raw
Itās fairly easy but itās time consuming
Thats possibly it ig
fuckin hawks didnt do the display
just didnt show up
waited at the botnaical gardens for like 3 hours
took the fucking day off school
last day of term to be fair
I saw a plan doing some fun manoeuvres but not sure what. I was driving lol
at williamtown?
cause the hawk did a display at williamtown for some reason
like i think the weather cancelled the display here so it jsut did it over williamtown for fun lmao
At least you get displays
what part of didnt do the display do u not understand
lmao that sounded passive aggressive sorry
Iām jealous of anywhere that even has possibilities of air displays
its once every 2 years up here
where r u at?
I live somewhere rural so weāve got an army chinook that flies over us every couple months thatās not transmitting at least not on the frequency that fr24 uses
yeh chinooks almost never show up
Remote part of Queensland
The chinook is probably doing something with NORFORCE none of us actually know we just see it fly overhead with the cargo ramp down and a bloke sitting on it
huh interesting
loadmasters got just about the best job in the defence force
Nah the imagery specialists do I reckon
Even though Iām a phot I still get to shoot, do firefighting, damage control and all that good stuff
I mean hawks are doing fun shit there a lot. Not rare for non roulette pc21s either. Was at newy, near nobbys lol
lol. Our farm is right under pc21 training area. They fly for an hour or 2 at a time. Used to have growlers and hornets training over our farm too, recent developments have pushed that further away though. still see them occasionally but not as low
Goodmorning Aussies
Going out to a drifting event today⦠hopefully the 70-180 cuts it from where I can access š¤
Oooo have fun
I forgot me fuckin ND⦠itās so damn bright out today
Cute
Aw good luck
Iām still in bed. Not feeling too good today š„²
just use a crazy aperture
I used f22 lmao
If it works it works
Yeah Iām on f8. Thinking of going higher. It isnāt as fast paced as racing so itāll be the only way I can get some motion blur
I'm so done with my manager bro
WHO THE FUCK IS ALLEGING THAT I BROKE CONFIDENTIALITY EVERYONE HATES THIS GIRL
SHE SEXUALLY HARRASED ME AND MY EX
and how am I breaking confidentiality to someone who already had confidentiality broken to them
It's just fucking horrible
I'm so sick of all these meetings back and forth
also everyone knows about the issue cause it's been discussed in the past before the meetings started. Therefore when people find out we have a meeting they can easily assume what the issue is about
both my store manager and his supervisor are newish to the store and have only been here for like 3 months and they're causing so much shit
censor them names bruh
they're not that deep
you do not know them
It's just like saying my name
it doesn't provide much info to you
If they're on LinkedIn, I can find the exact company they work for. just saying to be safe
ah ok
It's not that big of an issue attending this meeting but I'm just so done with all the meetings
Second point is fine but first point isn't
The higher aperture started to work out but in my great preparation, I also forgot a second SD card
haha
Thatās some five eye shit right there
Looks good asf tho
shame I have to scrap this lol
I have no clue what that means
god I wish I had actually excecuted the pano correctly lol
then this mightve been decent
Panoramic issues and lighting issues
oh damn
Theres an issue regarding the color grade and how it blended in the pano as well
I'll do this one properly when I visit again
Do you have much issue with the auto pano blending on ps or lr?
Mine always cracks the shits and will refuse to blend one photo
Doing it manually is so time consuming
Nah not really, unless im doing like 5 or more images
Itās done it to me with as little a 3
AHH DOGGO
I got a Bunnings Trade shirt
Most boring grand final I've ever seen
no way they doubled their score
swans are the biggest chokes ever lol
Tell them your parents need your help with something
JUST TELL THEM MUM NEEDS YKUR HELP MOVING SMTH
finally
Homeeeeeeeee
Time to relax
Nah Iāve got so much to do
damn
I think I'm working tmmr afternoon
Mum is forcing me to go get a haircut tmmr
No getting out of this one sadly
I had to get one today and I have to get one every school holidays
In cadets they crack the staff crack the shits with you if your hair isnāt within the service regulations
Iāve been getting my hair cut at this one barber shop for years and they always do it well
I get a cut every 2 months or so
Usually he doesn't fuck it up but he cut it basically a buzz cut level
I've always like my hair being a little longer to my mum's dismay
Every school holidays I get my hair trimmed short on the sides and slightly longer on top it looks good on me and itās within my regulations too
If my hair is slightly longer I have to get a haircut or I have to tie it up into a bun
That's shit
I actually agree with it though
I canāt enforce dress and grooming standards if I donāt meet those standards myself thatās completely hypocritical
Fuck I have to do another draft of an email and send it someone to request approval to send it to the person I need to send it to
Itās not bad. Just clean up the sideburns atleast lol
Not really I'm in the suburbs lol
Off my balcony
Yeah that's what I keep saying
Side burns are really bad cause I've been lying on my side all day lol
Just get rid of them in general
Side burns are terrible
One for you @static ruin
how you know
We're multiplying
And here we have a ford in its natural habitat doing bogan things
Soon we'll be the biggest of them all dw
There was a yellow BA with the number plate LEMON also partaking in the bogan things
Hoping long term forecast holds up for long weekend, looking like some potential for supercell storms in parts of NSW, could be storm chasing š
But a week away, so plenty of time for that to change entirely
I love fun numberplates
It wasnāt a real number plate. Most of the cars are unregistered/roadworthy but they use them as names for their cars haha
I love the name of this team though lol
banger i'm in his school
last time i want to do a collab with him but he and i didnāt have much time
since exam n shit
Whatās with the hffk in your pfp
@late parcel you planning on going to George's any time soon?
idk it just looks good
Seeing a hffk with that colour pug I figured you might be an army cadet
Navy and airforce wear a navy blue pug on ours (assuming navy is actually wearing a hffk)
Not bunny, however I was there a few days ago...
Convenient having it nearby
Frig
I just visited my local shopā¦
Came with a cool filter case though š¤·āāļø
I don't know if there's a George's near me
It's only in Sydney
Nup
People there are really nice
Especially Elliot
oh you know the people there damn
Camera house is alright
Bit expensive but I get good service from them
Yes I agree
I've used Digi direct aswell in the past and they're all right
The website fucking sucks tho
aight all good
tryna figure out if they'll take my camera bag for a trade in lmao
cause I want the goat bag
but dunno what ot do with my current oine
nah i just have that for my 80s fits
is not any army cadets
is just a fedora not a hffk
interesting
Hmmmm I feel like wasting money again
Time to hit up my old driving instructor.. who also happens to be a flight instructor. Take my moneyyyy newm
I mean you could always shout us gear š
Fedoras are valid but so is the hffk theyāre great hats I got an old one that I use as a bush hat

Mum and dad are buying me new shows
The Adidas ultraboosts
Best shoes I've ever worn
they refuse to buy me a half size down
@coral crescent @steep idol youāll be proud of me. I finally started unpacking from Darwin

To be fair. Itās Al summer clothes that wouldāve been thrown into storage anyways

mostly people who are.... not so good mates with glen
See posts, photos and more on Facebook.
the messenger chat from this group is my best source
I thought it was a bit more than 6 at the end, but yep thats it
wish it was just 2,2,2,6
that would make so much more sense
That's what we have down here in Victoria
It's so much better
It's really uniform and it means that you always know what to expect. You can go away on holidays and have time to relax
Id rather have it then what you guys have
wait you guys still have school?
yeah so does mine
rip
Weāre starting term 4 tomorrow so itās no biggie
that sucks
hope for the best
Iāve got 8 weeks of school left this year and itāll all be really laid back Iām not concerned about anything
Itās the easiest term and it tends to fly past
yeah except for exam n shit
you in year 10 or above ?
is not that easy for me ngl
haha I have 4
My year 12 exams start early
3 real weeks of school then the rest is revision
exams start day of my birthday
birthday exam is wild
Yep but my exams and assignments are easy
dude your lucky
Nah I don't think I have one
Otherwise I'm faking being sick
i'm coping with a science teacher that don't teach science
I want my 5 day weekend
I had a 2 part biology exam and I got a better grade on the first part of the exam even though I passed out during it
I get a 4 day weekend next week itās already a long weekend but Iām going camping in the middle of nowhere so I get an extra day off because itās a long drive
Honestly fairv
Itās 390ish clicks I think and doing that in a loaded up troopy thatās towing a boat itāll take a few hours
No mobile service for a couple days so itās lucky my camera has 2 lcd screens and Iāve got candy crush on my phone
Iām bringing my camera bag but Iām adding on a monopod and a tripod to use up there
Iām gonna be in the middle of the bush thereās gonna be no light pollution I would be stupid not to bring a tripod and a shutter release remote since Iāve got a full frame and a 17-40mm lens
Iām obviously gonna do astro
Don't even need ff to do astro
I've done it to great success on my R50 with the kit lens
Mates is a stretch, but I know him and have contact
yeh aight
I tried to join last week and it didnāt let me š maybe itās because Iām a new account
May be a bit close to the sun next weekend, but if you're interested in any astro, there's also a Comet that'll be an evening object by next weekend, LP won't matter given it'll set not long after the sun, as it stands now, it's a naked eye target as of a few days ago, and still brightening
May (potentially) be able to get photos/landscape with it
Was about a week ago when I checked it out, it'll be significantly brighter than it was for that photo by next weekend
BOPM?
Puther
Bureau of puthers meteorology?
Hell yeah
Ah bom... I was so annoyed at them last month š
Remember when bom was among one of those coon cheese and chico babies
That storm outbreak I still kick myself for not driving 10 hours for, bom, storm that'll mess up your hair at worst: severe warning. Storm with very obvious tornado signature on Radar: 0 warning, though a month after the outbreak surprisingly they actually confirmed one tornado, 25km damage track
Because they didnāt wanna sound alll like bomb
I understand dilemma for not wanting to overwarn because of boy who cried wolf situations, but becoming a storm nerd has made me realize how bad bom is with them
Watch the moment a tornado impacts a rural property in Boorolite as Kangaroos flee flying tornado debris on the 25th August 2024.
