I still can’t use photoshop very well, and to be honest I have very few ideas on what to do to transform my photos. I have used Lightroom/Photoshop for years and have a nice workflow in place. Testing these new programs has enabled me to think about was I need and expect from my photo editor. There has been (and still is) a lot of publicity around the software, many reviewers criticised the bugs, the slow speed and the lack of features that left it clearly behind the industries standard editor which is Lightroom.įast forward a year and a half, I read that the Photo Raw 2018.5 was a usable piece of software so I gave it a try. Although I disregarded it for years when it was still called Perfect photo suite because it lacked any kind of photo management (DAM) and raw processing, in 2017 the company released its first version of the Photo Raw software. In the list of photo management and editors, ON1 Photo Raw has been under my radar for a while. It is a path to explore … the only way is forwards! Why ON1 Photo Raw may be for me. So which do you prefer : the colour version or the b&w version? I have also masked out sometimes parts of the photos to keep the original colours and this can make some areas pop! In the photos in this post, I have followed this method. I have tried and consequently excluded using presets or LUTs to change the colours because I don’t feel I have much control on what I am doing and I don’t think I will learn much. I’m not saying that it is enough but it is a start. By shifting separately the red, green and blue curves, it is possible to make subtle changes to the hues in the shadows and highlights that completely change the way the photo looks. Any decent software with a curves adjustment is enough. There are a lot of useful videos on YouTube that explain what it is and how to do it. To come back to colour, a good starting point seems to be colour grading. I have used Lightroom and now use ON1 photo raw quite a lot and in all honesty, the adjustments are the same, the methods are the same. I know where to go in the software, what to do. Raw files tend to be that way, but I have enough practice now to get a decent black and white image. I need to add to all that to be aware of the colours : contrasts between colours, complimentary colours… Even so, when I get in front of my computer and I look at my images, the colours are flat and rather lifeless. I have put a lot of time and effort into pre-visualising my photos, trying to see the light and the contrasts at the same time as imagining the photo I am about to take, looking at the people around me and trying to predict where they will be and what they will do… Phew! Exhausting! My inspiration has come from the French photographers Henri Cartier Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Willy Ronis, Jacques Henri Lartigue, Sabine Weiss… all who photographed in black and white and often for a good reason!Īs I spend time on the internet, I realise that a lot of street photographers use colour for their work but at the same time, that the colour of my own photographs isn’t as compelling or as powerful. I haven’t really consciously thought about it really but all my street photography has always been in black and white. I started doing more and more photography in different genres : landscapes, long exposures, macro, portraits, high-speed, street… I think I have tried almost everything! Street photography has been growing on me since 2012, slowly but surely. When I bought my first digital camera (a Canon EOS 400D), I shot family and holiday snapshots in colour. I shot black and white film mostly but as I was a student, I didn’t do much film photography and after a while stopped photography altogether. When I first started out in photography, I had my fathers Praktika and a 50mm lens. Fujifilm x-pro 3 with Laowa 65mm macro f/2.8 lens at f/2.8. Fujifilm x-pro 3 with Samyang 12mm manual focus lens. Edited in Fuji Raw Studio with a Kodachrome 64 film sim recipe taken from fuji x weekly. I took a short burst in continuous autofocus (af-c) to be sure to get the subject in a nice position. Feel free to leave a comment or a question below! Fujifilm x-pro 3 with 18mm f/2 lens at f/2. I will try to share these photos regularly, giving some technical information about them. Since last October, we have been giving ourselves a weekly challenge and it has just occurred to me that I could share my photos. We have a weekly live meeting to chat though and to keep a minimum of momentum. We have set up a Discord channel to stay in contact and to show our photos. Our yearly exhibition was cancelled in March 2020 and has been pushed back, then cancelled several times. During this coronavirus pandemic, our photography club is at a standstill. Perhaps only a 25% chance of melting? The additional damage would be powerful on a +1 sword, but this way I'd say it's balanced as he'd have a chance to lose it all togetherI'd treat it like a Gray Ooze's Corrode Metal ability a single application confers a permanent (and cumulative) -1 penalty to damage rolls, destroying the weapon if the penalty drops to -5, and destroys ammunition after dealing damage. I'd say if he were able to obtain a magical sword (+1 sword or otherwise) I'd say it would be more powerful and be able to withstand the heat. Perhaps a % roll to say have a 75% chance the sword melts after it connects with an attack while on fire? Or perhaps go with a random mechanic via a die roll. after 2 uses the swords blade weakens and melts and is no longer usable. You could either have this be a hard set number i.e. However it was mentioned that due to the sheer heat of the alchemist's fire after 1 or 2 uses it would melt and weaken the sword to the point of non-use and he'd have to acquire a new sword. Thoros of Myr would often fight with a flaming sword that he would dip in alchemist's fire. Perhaps draw inspiration from Game of Thrones. Would it be broken? Maybe not at higher levels, but at low levels it might be a little broken. Does dragon's breath even do that? Fireball does not, scorching ray does not, burning hands does not, almost every fire spell does not with the exception of immolate, which is a pretty special effect. again, not very many effects set creatures on fire. If anything, most of the fire damage might come from the heated blade.ģ) precedent. Sticking to a sword, sure getting enough of it to stick to something the sword hits is a pretty far stretch, given the sword doesn't hold that much to begin with. alchemists fire is basically crappy napalm, and napalm is effective because a lot of it sticks to the target. It takes an entire flask of alchemists fire directly applied to target to get that recurring ignition damage.Ģ) realism. recurring damage for a negligible gold cost is pretty strong. I'm not the player in this instance - so I'm not trying to powergame anything, I'm just asking out of genuine curiosity.1) balance. A creature can end this damage by using its action to make a DC 10 Dexterity check to extinguish the flames.Krugaan, Lordsmoothe, may I ask why you would not allow it to ignite enemies? That's part of the basic function of Alchemist's Fire. Hit: 2 (1d4) fire damage at the start of each of the target's turns. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or take an additional 2 (1d4) poison damage. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft. A creature can end this damage by using its action to make a DC 12 Dexterity check to extinguish the flames.ĭagger. Hit: 5 (2d4) fire damage at the start of each of the target's turns. The alchemist chooses one of the following concoctions to throw, provided he has any left: Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 5/20 ft., or 30/120 ft. Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 30/120 ft., one target. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or take an additional 2 (1d4) poison damage. The alchemist makes two weapon attacks, only one of which can be to throw a concoction.ĭagger. 1 random potion (see Special Potion sidebar).The alchemist is carrying the following potions: The alchemist has advantage on saving throws against poison. The alchemist can drink a potion they are carrying as a bonus action.

And, of course, more so in these super-competitive times, every parent thinks their kid is a genius.īut Deutscher is a veritable child prodigy, “a force of nature”, as the esteemed conductor Sir Simon Rattle has called her. Notions of ‘hot-housing’ children and ‘tiger’ parents have entered the common discourse as though pushing children to know more and to do more-and do it all more than competently-is an entirely natural thing. In some cultures, such a premium is placed on educational attainment that the number of children estimated to be receiving private tutoring has increased by a third over the last decade, according to UK-based education charity The Sutton Trust. She plays piano as well as she plays violin, which is to say, very well indeed. She composed her first sonata at age six and her first full-length opera at 10. Rather it would have been by this elfin performer’s youth-Deutscher is only 14. This would not have been caused by the music, though the recital did include a number of Deutscher’s compositions.

There is something we might all learn from children, whether they turn out to be prodigies or not.Why are our reactions to the failure of child prodigies a sense of schadenfreude?.
He who ruled scent ruled the hearts of men.Īs you can see, this looks quite odd when using the Latin alphabet but if you were to use the Arabic alphabet this would be the kind of text flow that you were used to. And scent entered into their very core, went directly to their hearts, and decided for good and all between affection and contempt, disgust and lust, love and hate. Together with breath it entered human beings, who couldn't defend themselves against it, not if they wanted to live. But they couldn't escape scent.įor scent was a brother of breath. Let's have a look at the four options right, left, center or justify įor people could close their eyes to greatness, to horrors, to beauty, and their ears to melodies or deceiving words. In the western world, we are so used to left-aligned text, that text-align is a property we hardly notice - except for one place, when we are reading an old fashioned paper, where the text are justified in order to make the columns of the paper appear more 'clear'. Typography is a very big part of your entire website's look and therefore it is nice to know how you get the text to behave just the way you like it. So now you've got the basics of typography down, let's have a look at how you style the text for your liking. Text & Fonts: Advanced typography - wordspacing, letterspacing and textalign! The aliens, who can’t be killed with guns, gnaw off their injured limbs in close-up shots, right before you see a dangerously close human get their blood splattered and die a horrific yet ultimately meaningless death. Green goop shoots out in all directions when aliens are shot, stabbed, impaled, or sliced. The film is only “good” (and I’m using this word very lightly) when Chris McKay decides to do something sci-fi directors rarely dare to do unless their name is Ridley Scott: get gross. And when they travel into the future through a blue and purple vortex of whooshing wind and flashing lights, Dan easily moves into a leadership role because it “reminds him of Iraq,” guiding the group forward. Kindhearted and chatty but ultimately gullible geologist Charlie (an embarrassingly underused Sam Richardson), doesn’t even know how to hold his gun, but serves as good comic relief when he’s not being overly-idolizing of Dan. When Dan is called to serve in the Tomorrow War due to his time as a veteran, his self-assuredness, calm demeanor, and willingness to lend a hand help him stand out from the other draftees. Simmons, very bearded this time around), who he goes to in search of support – and James ultimately tells him that he should feel a purpose in his life again. An Army veteran who now lives in Florida and teaches high school biology, Dan is estranged from his Vietnam vet father James (J.K. The remaining humans ‘invented time travel’ for mysterious reasons (it’s never explained), and they inform humankind that their help is required to save the future in the “Tomorrow War.” This announcement takes place on television while Dan is watching soccer with his therapist wife Emily (Betty Gilpin) and super-smart daughter Muri (Ryan Armstrong). Dan Forester (Pratt) travels between 20, where in the latter year a group of aliens called Whitespikes have overrun the planet and killed 75% of the human population on Earth. The narrative tries very hard to separate from Chris Pratt idolatry, but ultimately fails to support anyone else or believe that they’re in the right. The film, like a lot of the films I mentioned earlier, tries to tie the “working-class hero” narrative with an action-hero idolatry, and by doing this for 2 hours, it’s overly repetitive. Half an exploration of a father-daughter relationship, where the more serious moments ultimately fail to land, and half an alien invasion movie where you watch Pratt and his new team shooting low-rent Xenomorphs (seriously, they look the exact same…), The Tomorrow War has a predictable narrative arc, which bends towards everyone loving Pratt’s character. The Tomorrow War, where Chris Pratt plays an ex-military high school teacher who travels through time to fight aliens, tries to play out like all of these films, but ultimately fails. But unlike Chris McKay’s The Tomorrow War, they all contained a unique flair or a unique story: Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers was a subtle satire about the dangers of war aside from its gaudy visuals, Independence Day drew people in for its promise of aliens and guns, but people loved the heartwarming performance from Will Smith, and the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy movie perfectly captured Douglas Adams’ story with agreeable campiness. And since there's already time travel baked into the mythology of the film, I suppose they could use that as a jumping-off point for a new adventure.The science fiction genre has always been partial to telling stories about ordinary, blue-collar men in new situations and new worlds. But hey, that never stopped other movies before. It's going to be tough since the first film had a very definitive conclusion. Instead, someone, somewhere, said, "Hey, let's make a sequel!" And now it's going to be someone's job to figure out what the hell that sequel will be. There are no plot details in place yet, and I'm about 99.9% sure no one has a story lined up yet. The first film hit Amazon Prime Video over Independence Day weekend and is said to be the "biggest live-action streaming movie of the summer," at least according to Screen Engine's PostVOD. Deadline has the scoop on The Tomorrow War 2, reporting that "discussions are in place to bring the whole creative gang back both in front of and behind the camera including director Chris McKay and screenwriter Zach Dean and stars Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson, Edwin Hodge, and.

Furthermore, both intact and egg-implanted fruits were used to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision of the proposed system. Experimental results show that the X-ray quarantine scanner and pest infestation detector are able to locate the infested sites with highly successful rate up to 94% on the 4th day after eggs implanted. The image processing procedures include contrast enhancement, median filtering, mathematical morphology operators, and adaptive thresholding by statistical z-test for identifying the infested sites of fruit on an X-ray image. A novel pest infestation detector consisted of image processing algorithms were also proposed to aid the operator in identifying possibly infested fruits. To enhance the accuracy and efficiency of pest quarantine process, a control scheme for performing start-up procedure of the system, parameter setting and calibration of the X-ray source and line-scan sensor, and automatic inspection for pest were developed.

From market to love story, childhood to adolescence, there it arrives all the same, a swaying of the heart: Tamako is now standing at the entrance to the universe. It isn’t enough that Tamako remains in the nest the twigs woven snug, the colors all the same. They’re all an effective way to showcase Tamako’s plight, but however lovely they may be, I wanted to try painting a picture using my words instead. The jump cut where Tamako skips like a broken tape recorder for she can no longer walk straight, the shapeless mass of the market district folk for Tamako can no longer see clearly, the fisheye lens distorting both Tamako and the audience’s view for meaning, from the ground-up, is crumbling altogether. With a variety of techniques and tricks, we enter into the headspace of Tamako where approximate assemblages collapse and stock senses fritz out.
