A kick in the bollocks is far more painful than anything a woman goes through!
How many women after giving birth have said "Let's have another one".
Have you ever heard a bloke after receiving a kick in the proverbials say the same?

PS - Did you know that in the most recent versions of Lightroom there is a BRUSH mode in the Radial and Graduated filters. You can use the Adjustments brush in Erase mode to remove the filters' adjustments from areas you don't want affected.


Thanks R.G. I knew about the brush with the Graduated filter but didn't know it also worked with the Radial.
A very handy tip. Thanks again.

Started in Lightroom and done the majority of the adjustments but found I had a large halo round the mountain after using the radial filter. Took it into photoshop to try and clone it out but not happy with the result.
Should have done all local adjustments in photoshop using luminosity masks to prevent the haloing effect, but thought I'd be a smart ass and go for the quick fix.

Thanks again for the exercise.
Alan.

Thanks for your post.

I will remember my grandfather, who had a hole through his ear and a scar from there to the back of his head. He also walked with the aid of a stick (cane in the US). He was one of the thousands sent over the top on the first day at The Battle of the Somme on July 1st 1916. He always considered himself one of the lucky ones as although he was shot through his ear and leg, he made it back home.

Here's my effort R.G.

Used 3 layers of different size rain brushes in hard light blending mode to keep the rain localized. It's hard not to go over the top and loose a sense or reality.

Thanks for your post.

I've spent some time in high places and can tell you there's some real safety issues set aside during the making of this video.

First, if there's a chance of falling and hanging there for a while, you don't tie off like this guy does. a fall could cause a serious back injury. Plus, because the upper body is heavier than the lower, you will find yourself hanging upside-down while awaiting rescue.

The main tie off, needs to be between the shoulders.

Also, the spikes out on the arm expose the guy to impalement, they need a wide blunt cover on them.

And lastly, you don't do this sort of work or use hand tools, with a crowd below you.

Yes, I know that, but I think the main question hasn't been answered.

Why does the camera NEED a pop up flash?


It has.

GoofyNewfie answered the question for you.

In "commander mode", the pop up flash can be used to control your off camera speedlights.

Nice post.

We all Know that the best times to shoot are during the golden hours of sunrise and sunset but what do you do with the rest of the day if you have no studio work. This article just proves the point "Never be stuck - use what you've got!"

Get ready for a bunch of comments about how the FAA regulations apply...

Heading back across the pond to the Newcastle area next month - first visit in 15 years or so. Going to be based in North Shields and also Hexham. Howay the lads!


You are right Bloke. FFA regulations stand for nothing in the UK, you can literally buy and fly (the reason for the investigators comments about buying on line).
Glad to see you you are paying us a visit. Pm me when you will be in Shields and we could meet up.

We've got to be the dumbest turds on the planet to let this go fourth. The licensing is almost as funny as the FCC requirements in the 70's to regulate CB radios.


An investigator said today:-
If you buy a drone from a shop, all the rules & regulations are read out to you. Buy one on line and just go out and fly the damn thing.

There is no licensing involved.
