Do you think they planned their perfect spacing?? Birds are so fascinating!

I think it is, or at least they value personal space. There were two or three other antennas in the same street with birds arranged in the same way.

Ya that does look good, I’ll crop it a bit more.

Yes, I did. A shame, I really looked forward to getting up on a Friday to hear the show.

@ant_pruitt made a fantastic show, one of the best on the network. It was just a casual conversation with people who knew what they were talking about. It was fun, jovial and, best of all, no constant bickering between the guests.

But I guess the bickering and fighting is what sells to most people these days and possibly therefore didn’t get the audience it deserved? A real shame.

Reminded me of this on Twitter yesterday, love the way they fight over who’s on the ends.

Helping out someone on the OnePlus Community yesterday with some camera focus issues, took this snap as an example. OnePlus 6. Used Luminar to sharpen the flower, blur the background, add some glow, tweak of saturation.

That show was part of getting me back into my photography. Thanks for the show @ant_pruitt. Looking forward to new ones.

Very nice! The blur looks pretty natural. Well done.

Thanks. This stuff is fun. Might add a layer and remove some of the colour from the vase next to it.

I think the key to this is knowing when to stop :joy:

Agreed. I’ve had to stop myself from abusing the clarity slider on multiple occasions.

Interesting place to walk the dog this morning. It’s an Art Deco diving platform built in 1935, now a Grade II listed building. OnePlus 6.

There’s an old picture of it in this article…

out with the dog. Hurricane not quite here yet. Gusting to 80mph at the moment, trying to blow phone out of my hands. It should get up to 120mph later…

Edit: Hmm, that’s the problem with phones. In such conditions, you rely on the automatic and it focuses on the wrong point. Having to hold the phone in both hands to stop it being blown away, I could only stab at the screen and hope for the best.
