Couldn’t really understand the Oporto woman, had a very heavy middle eastern accent, no hate, I just couldn’t understand her so I said get me the closest to what my parents want

sudden karma

Why are your parents complaining when you went and got food for them

If it’s legitimately sickeningly sweet that’s not a good combo with lactose intolerance

Ooooooo

Deciding factor lmao

patent pecan
#

AND a fan on the patio.. like... all i need is a bar fridge and a tv out there and im full dad mode

Yard currently looks more like a beach with pot holes, but they're landscaping it completely next week to look like it does in the photos which is cool

# late parcel Ooo a shed too

Yeah, not big enough to do much with though, just to store mower and stuff really. But that little laneway down the left has a gate big enough for the cruiser to fit down which is good.

#

this is by far the best place ive inspected yet

late parcel
#

Oooo nice nice. I guess it’s still good to get the mower and shit out of sight. What’s the inside like?

I'm seriously tempted to move to Europe

Interesting roof 😂

My question is… where’s the solar 😭

patent pecan
#

I meant the yard. Nah no solar, but I'm pretty wary with power usage

late parcel
#

Yeah right

#

Yard needs a lilllll bit of work

patent pecan
#

Solar would just bump the rental price up. It's already $550/wk

late parcel
#

Oh oop, 550 each person or will you split that?

Thats total. split

@patent pecan sorry for the 3rd ping 😭 how do you get the confidence to photograph cars on the side of the road? I’m such a chicken

#

Anyways cute Suzuki

patent pecan
#

If the owners there just ask them

#

They’ll love it and it gives you more confidence

#

Or use a telephoto so they don’t know KEKL

late parcel
#

I mean like passing cars and you sitting on the side of the road

#

Might be a bit too big lmao

patent pecan
#

Oh, I generally just sit there and eat something. I only photo cool shit anyway. Plus where I am is scenic so i just look like im there for a quiet sit down

#

Yeah my 70-180 is like perfect for it lol

#

Especially if you’re panning it’ll be hard as fuck with that thing

#

I’ve been followed by so many people honestly

#

Had one in the backstreets that asked for directions back to main road… he followed me deeper into the back streets so I went to an old woman’s garden and pretended I was there to visit

#

I waited hidden it the woman’s garden for about 20 mins and when I left he was still there and followed our to main road.. walked to another persons place I know and they did a few uies to follow. Was creepy asf

#

I think I sat in a bindi patch PepeLaugh

#

Oh gosh wow

#

I need my shorter lens lmao

patent pecan
#

and as you can see, it is why i went and bought another ND filter... f/10 😦

#

looks too soft for my liking

late parcel
#

I have no filters for this yet PepeLaugh who woulda thought 82mm filters are fucking priceygottem

patent pecan
#

Yeah that 67mm one i got was about $450

static ruin
#

Wait what

#

What 67mm filter do you have that cost $450

patent pecan
#

It's techincally two filters and a case

#

two filters to make 9 stop

#

5 stop VND and a 4 stop static

static ruin
#

67mm size?

patent pecan
#

yeah

static ruin
#

god damn that's crazy expensive lol, basically on par with my Nisi 100mm square filter in price per filter

#

Heck even my CPL is ~90mm and cheaper than that

patent pecan
#

It's Nisi as well

#

Mine's still the 67 though

#

Probably cheaper at other places, but my camera stores locally owned so i dont mind supporting

static ruin
#

I'd love the kase magnetic filters for convenience, just a lot of money for something that won't actually improve performance

patent pecan
late parcel
#

I got locked out PepeLaugh

#

Knocked on dads bedroom window, he stared at me and then went back into his room 💀

#

Calling brother lol

patent pecan
#

My Nisi at 9 stops vs my promaster at 8 stops CoolFrog @static ruin

late parcel
#

Gollyyy

static ruin
#

That cross is less to do with quality, and more the fact that Nisi is blocking off the VND from going further before physics issue (aka that cross) kicks in, it's why it's only "5" stops VND, they put a stop there to prevent you going further I'm guessing

#

VND is just 2 polarizers stuck together, have them rotated 90 degrees and no light passes, so technically they can go as many stops as you want, but physics makes it impractical

patent pecan
#

Is that why they layer two filters?

static ruin
#

Yes

#

So you'll notice that cross if you either a) have it pushed too far or b) shooting with an ultra wide angle lens it is more likely to become visible due to the higher angle of light coming in

patent pecan
#

yeah thats at 18mm

static ruin
#

VND's are interesting when you look deeper into how they work, get 3 filters and you can do basic nerdy experiments that show quantum uncertainty effects in the real world

#

Well 3 polarizers I should say rather than 3 vnd's, but yeah they're interesting

late parcel
#

Yay I got inside lol

#

I’ve got A LOT to learn about filters it seems

patent pecan
#

Same here. I'd really like to learn how I can use my CPL's for more than just automotive reflections

static ruin
#

CPLs primary use is cutting out reflections, so you're already using it for their main use, just the end goal may differ

late parcel
#

My knowledge on filters is tiny… so is my spending balance 😂

static ruin
#

I use it for landscape time to time, in some cases it just cuts out reflections on rocks/leafs to pull more colour back in, other times it just helps cut out some haze if it's a wide open landscape, but ultimately all boils down to reducing unwanted reflections

patent pecan
#

Does it really work with haze to a degree?

static ruin
#

Yes

#

Haze scatters light which results in a net reduction in contrast, you're cutting away some of that scattered light when you stick a polarizer on

late parcel
#

Oh right

#

Thanks

Nahhhhh my neighbour started following my Insta

Yep, it's just a snapshot photo. Is a nice view, but as a photo you still need a photo composition to make it good as a photo

#

Sunset light can just make more and/or different compositions work that otherwise wouldn't

both if you have any suggestions, wanted to get some wildlife photos but dont know how feasible that is dead winter?

brittle raft
#

Well it will be polar night going on at January at northern parts of Finland. So star and aurora photography is what you might want to do. Birds and wildlife might be quite difficult. In Helsinki there might be enough daylight and some birds to photograph. But Helsinki is always a bit so and so if you want to see snow and winter landscapes.

#

If you have to choose between Lapland and Helsinki then I would go to Lapland.

think thats a good balance of places? or should i dedicate more time to one or another?

brittle raft

Well i think that sounds good.

In Helsinki there is lot to see if you like culture and art. But also some nature places.

#

In Lapland you can ski, or go to snowmobile safaris or try to see auroras among others. And remember to just enjoy nature and peace.
