as a mariners fan: there's not much to say. I don't have the channel, tonight, so I can't speculate. But a 2-1 lead is still better than the Jays, currently.

I know, right? It's one of my favorite places in the city. Also, if something's being screened there, I'll go out of my way to see it there, and support a cool old theater.

In Southern Oregon, the BLM has started to exclude the public and the press from timber auctions.

BLM timber sales in Oregon and Washington are now closed to the public

An environmental advocate in Southern Oregon said a new policy excluding the public from federal timber auctions hurts accountability and transparency.

I've never used Resolve. I'm on Linux, and I dunno if there's something equivalent. I understand about crushing the blacks. I like that too (as I develop mostly in black and white). However, I think a little more on the high end, and maybe a little midtone will make those blacks really pop

are you doing anything in post? like with lightroom, or darktable, or anything like that?
