well... that would lead to high taxation...

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 20:57

yeah... I wouldn't be a fan of that...

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 20:55

ouch

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 20:52

only 25... but i was just noticing that you'd have income tax as well, so I'm actually just used to much lower tax rates in general ...

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 20:48

hmm, I'm used to 7% sales tax, but then I also have to pay significant income tax

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 20:43

wow, interesting

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 19:52

is that just an import tax?

chills42

Feb 18, 2013 19:52

25% !! ouch

@jrista yeah, i hop in whenever I can, but unfortunately school + job has been making that hard lately...

@dpollitt yeah? what are your thoughts on the 10-22?

chills42

Oct 5, 2012 17:45

@dpollitt yeah, that makes sense... in my case I'm planning to stay with a crop for a while, so I went with the EF-S 17-55 as my walkaround, and others are all EF

@jrista I hadn't actually seen you moonscape video (vimeo.com/21251761) before, nice work!!

chills42

Oct 5, 2012 13:50

btw, I watch the local craigslist deals for canon lenses via email... using ifttt.com

chills42

Oct 5, 2012 13:49

@dpollitt not bad, but doesn't seem too far out of the ordinary for craigslist

chills42

Oct 5, 2012 13:48

well... the camera was... I'm guessing the 100-300 was purchased sometime after '90 when it was released :)

chills42

Oct 5, 2012 13:47

@jrista yeah, I was pretty happy to find it! Even found the original registration cards in the manual... purchased in '88 by the guy I bought them from

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 18:06

haha, yeah, it probably won't be a common thing for me, but I'm excited to see the differences

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 18:00

should be fun to play with film too (I've never had a film dslr)

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:59

@dpollitt yeah, in my mind I was really was just buying the lens and got the rest free

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:56

I'm pretty impressed so far by the 100-300 USM

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:56

yeah, It's a little odd looking at a Canon 650 next to a 650D (t4i)

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:42

All for $120, and in really great condition!

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:42

Canon EOS 650 Camera body, 35-70 Lens, 100-300 lens and flash

chills42

Oct 4, 2012 17:42

I just picked up some new (old) equipment!!

chills42

Sep 26, 2012 13:51

@dpollitt yeah, pretty awesome results too

chills42

Sep 26, 2012 13:37

2000 images with a total exposure of 2 million seconds

Sep 26, 2012 13:36

so... for anyone interested in long exposures, photo stacking, or astrophotography...

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:43

nicely said

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:43

@jrista yep

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:42

it's doubled since I was hired... and I can see the effects

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:42

yeah... unfortunately

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:42

I'm just wanting to be able to focus on the work instead of the politics

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:40

@jrista of course

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:40

yeah... the best part is that the written policies are almost the opposite of what the new boss expects

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:39

@jrista good to know! I might have to give them a try

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:37

since I can't read minds, I'm now dealing with the fallout from not doing "what was expected"

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:37

I switched teams within the same department almost a year ago, and I was never told about a bunch of procedures that I'm expected to be following

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:36

@rfusca communication issues primarily...

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:30

sounds good then

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:29

wow... looks good!! so, good quality too?

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:28

ahh

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:28

is it the .com or etsy store.. or?

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:27

ok my google-fu has failed me... what is CGPrints?

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:24

yeah... i've been annoyed before, but this is the first time I've actually seriously looked for other options...

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:23

eh, been better... personally, I'm great, but work has been a pain the last few weeks

chills42

Sep 7, 2012 19:22

Hey

chills42

Aug 14, 2012 16:50

@rfusca good to hear, I'll probably close it, but I wanted to run it by someone first

chills42

Aug 14, 2012 16:42

I'm not sure it's really answerable, they just seem to want general ideas

Q: How to make some nice photographs of midday sun?

Can i get some ideas on how to photograph midday sun to make it interesting? The fact why I ask this question is that photographing the midday sun alone gives a dumb photograph. Only idea that comes to me is to play creatively with the lens Flare.So any-other ideas to add mood to this type of ...
