RE: Wide Angle Wednesday - Morris Town Canyon
It looks as if it's been a wet year up there, too. It's definitely got to be hard to fish in that mess!
I never did much with GIFs, but used one awhile back for the transparency. The animated ones look kind of fun :-)
How difficult was it to get the helicopter repaired? It looked like you were in a bit of a remote area, when it had trouble.
Oh, and do you ever say "Get to da choppa!" in a Schwarzenegger-esque accent? :-D
Haaaa nope but I will now with the Arnie voice lol.
We lucked out with finding a qualified engineer. That helicopter has a Lycoming engine in it which is the same engine in many fixed wing as well, basically unheard of to have trouble with them especially when the chopper isn’t even a year old. Weird.
I really like doing the gifs but a tripod is definitely needed. I did notice that for some reason the size allowed for the gifs has gotten smaller. I had some cool ones but by the time I shortened it, it wasn’t useable.
Wow... Not even a year old and that happened? I wonder if someone missed a step in the manufacturing facility or something.
Do you know what the limitations for GIFs are? I suppose the info is out there, somewhere.
lol, I can't help but wonder if someone showed up hung over or just had a really bad day :)
As for the limitations for the gif's, lately it seems if mine are under 7-10mb they work. If I happen to use HDR then I have a lot of trouble, meaning that by the time I shorten up my gif enough it isn't worth it.
Hrm. I wonder if you can ppost larger GIF files on Flickr. I may try posting one there and just linking the URL to a post.
Of course, all that will have to wait until I can see again... The clinic used 24-hour dilation drops yesterday, and I can barely read what I'm writing.
Wow, isn't 24-hr dilation a lot more than normal? And thanks!, I'll give Flickr a try next time I'm having trouble :)
The normal dilation drops last 4-5 hours, but these ones... After an hour wait (they were way behind), they finally put the drops in at 2 PM. My eyes were still blurry and ultra light sensitive at bed time the following day. Fortunately, they were what passes for "normal" this morning!
