The lake was so calm that night so it all just popped

Totally makes up for missing a bucket list item 😁

The worst bit is that friends of mine did catch a glimpse from the same spot a few hours later 😔

Honestly one of my favorite photos. Thanks so much!

I have. Random outdoor cat walked over to me, demanded pets, it noticed a bird, killed the bird, and came back to me looking for more attention. I was not impressed.

The Fremen call it the Shai-Houndlud

I didn’t 😮 do now

This is pretty awesome!

Interesting! I did shoot this in burst. Gonna jump into lightroom to see how many I took with this pose.

Thanks for the tip!

Eh we’re kind of attached to him now

I’m super happy with this one. So glad Bowie helped out.

I do a calendar for Christmas, I think this would make an awesome addition for 2025.

He even got the composition right. I was at the limit of my zoom at the other end of the pool, if I was closer I would have probably made the image too tight.

Honestly it’s just hard for me to think about exposures and camera settings when doing Bowie photos, I tend to be pretty reactive.

Oh heck. I usually have to shoot around 1/800th of a second to avoid a blurry dog. Indoor I’ll go as low as 1/160th because Bowie is better at posing.

To even out water I’d need to shoot a 1 second exposure at least 😄(I’ve tried these in the past) it’s not happening 😁

Though… I do wonder if a 1/160th would be enough to even out the water a little 🤔🤔🤔 because you’re right it’s pretty jittery

There’s a stardog waiting in the sky He’d like to come and meet us But he thinks he’d blow our minds

I would love to have a vinyl album cover with Bowie on it!

We don’t have kids so we make sure we have one happy spoiled longboye

Thanks! We really did have just a couple of minutes before the sun dropped below the horizon. My partner, Bowie, and I sprinted to the beach to get the shot :)

From there I leave it to the autofocus and burst mode and hope I have one keeper.

We do a Bowie calendar for friends and family (it’s a great motivation to take photos). We were ready to send it to the printers, but last night we dropped this photo in for May.

So yeah, it’ll be on about 35 walls 😃

Oh man… like everything?

I describe the game as “Holy shit, I didn’t know I could do that” the game.

The game is all about secrets, did you get as far as looking into the in-game game manual? It’s vital, and none of it is obvious.

There’s also a lot of NES/SNES Nostalgia, if you don’t miss through leafing through game manuals or issues of EGM this might not hit for you as much as it did for me.

A lot of folk bounce off the game because the combat is too difficult, or because the puzzles are too obtuse. Personally I loved it though.

I finished the game and immediately bought a Tunic T-shirt just so I’d remember how much I liked the game. My only piece of videogame apparel
