This first shot would've been perfect if:

1. I had upped teh sharpness a bit

2. Bounced the flash better ( nasty shadow on the right side of teh face is because the flash wasn't exactly in the middle )

3. Probably could've fixed things If I shot in raw... but laziness is meh...

This is a great shot! I am trying to figure this out: The frisbee may be flown toward to the girl on left... or the guy on the right threw the frisbee behind the girl on the left...

This picture probably will confuse people on which way the frisbee goes. See what I mean?

Good job on capturing this perfect shot.

Thanks, yeah I didn't find it confusing at all just because I composed the shot and knew what was happening... but someone else said the same thing lol, the girl on the left was posing for me... well I was walking by, looked at her, she looked at me, and we just knew.

So I put up my camera, she made that "pose" and held it for about 10 seconds (I was waiting for the guy behind her to throw the frisbee)

Saw it on flickr earlier and still think it's a great shot. Only criticism I have is the power line running through the one light is distracting!

Thanks and yeah, I was thinking before I took it that it would be nice if it wasn't there, my only solution really would be to throw on my 35mm, and move forward quite a bit, but I wouldn't have got the same perspective, and I was too tired to do all that work

Edit: or if I was any good at photoshop, I could remove it that way :p

^^ Not that hard, in photoshop or lightroom, just use spot heal /clone tool, it would probably take you 2 minutes at most !

IMO, the cable doesn't bother me, what bothers me is that sign in the middle :p it kinda removes continuity for the street.

Haha, well sure, I could do a quick job, but I am no expert, I have done that before, and no one noticed there was a cable there before, but I could notice it was removed, which bothered me more than leaving it. (if I was good at photoshop I am sure I could make it blend in perfectly with no artifacts, but whenever I use a spot heal/clone tool there are little leftovers/imperfections, and it looks weird to me

Not much I can do about the sign ;) but good observation!

I knew some of you guys post pics of the moon but I couldn't because there is no moon around here due to cloudy. We had a thunderstorm nearby a little awhile ago.. Hopefully, I will keep an eye on the moon when it comes around as long as it looks interesting. Great shots, guys.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.

      People in the '50s and '60s had the same attitude, and we're still here over a half century later.
    • 007 First Light review: Satisfying spy adventure that James Bond needed

      By Nick H. · Posted

      So after some fiddling I was able to get it to run at a pretty stable 30FPS. I'm slightly surprised about how much fiddling I had to do to get there though given what I thought was reasonable hardware: Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics Memory: 16 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon 780M Graphics Graphics Processor 2: AMD Radeon RX 7700S I think I could do it better if I use Linux rather than Windows, Windows RAM usage is stupid without stripping the system down. But once I got it working in a reasonable state, it was so awesome! I felt like a new Bond! If anyone has any advice to get things going a bit smoother FPS-wise, I'd appreciate it.
