Yes this tiny platform seems pretty flimsy when you’re being flown around the Space Station 😨. Third time is a charm! After two spacewalks with some technical hitches, this third round couldn't have gone better. Two new solar panels installed, and a high-five to everybody involved, on Earth, inside the Space Station and of course to my spacewalk buddy Shane!
Oui, je confirme que le marchepied paraît un peu branlant quand on se tient dessus pour être transporter autour de la Station en plein vide. Cette fois ça y est, on a eu une sortie nominale, sans même avoir à improviser un peu de bricolage ou rentrer temporairement dans le sas pour une vérification de scaphandre. *Presque* facile comparée aux deux premières ;) On est quand même épuisés… mais surtout soulagés ! Les deux panneaux solaires sont installés et opérationnels, bravo à toutes les équipes ! 💪

EDIT~~~ This has gotten over 10, 000 views, and i wanted to bump it up and say thanks for all the comments and the views, and lets hope out of the almost 11,000 views, at least one person got some useful helpful information and maybe just maybe iot helped save someone.
I wanted these to be seen, especially this one. I didn't get any further than here with them, but almost 11,000 views is pretty good i think.
So yeah, again, thanks!
Now back to your regularly scheduled programing. I figured it was ok to bump this in front of today's 365 shot because it sucks so bad. LOL!
*** please please read the statistics i included. They are heart breaking, scary, and have me in tears right now......
Today's disorder is a very broad termed one. I am trying to go alphabetically an the only thing other than "eating disorder" that began with "e" involved feces and urine, so i stayed away from those.
Plus i think eating disorders are a serious serious issue that should be made aware.
Let me touch on the actual picture for a moment. i am well aware that my body looks totally deformed and ab normal... i did that with the intention of portraying how people with eating disorders usually view themselves. A deformed and distorted view of reality.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An eating disorder is characterized by abnormal eating habits that may involve either insufficient or excessive food intake to the detriment of an individuals physical and emotional health. The causes of eating disorders are complex and not yet fully understood. Eating disorders are estimated to affect 5-10 million females and 1 million males in the United States.[1] Although not yet classified as separate disorder, binge eating disorder[2] is the most common eating disorder in the United States affecting 3.5% of females and 2% of males according to a study by Harvard affiliated McLean Hospital. Bulimia nervosa was the second most common followed by Anorexia nervosa.[3]

NYNJ Rail 5101 leads a train down 1st Avenue, crossing one of the many switches to former warehouse sidings along the street. Due to the tight confines of the street and buildings, this switch branches off in the opposite direction of the warehouse, then curves back to cross the "main" before entering the warehouse.
Reading more about this here, these spurs were originally from when the street was double track. During reconstruction, the street section was singled due to decreased traffic, but the buildings could not allow the curves to be eased and so these "jug handles" or "out and about" switches were developed.

is he out there ~ the one that is for me...not sure he exists...

Not bad for coming straight out of camera. Pre-rotated shot and trimmed for a 16:9 and still 6400px wide. Effective focal length of 640mm on crop sensor. Spectator vantage point 8'-10' away from the fence I had to shoot through. Glad it was overcast :P
I generally do not put full size images up here but figured 'why not' for anyone that wanted to see what the camera can do.
Admittedly, there was an issue with focusing that was not really revealed (that I could not fix) until after this event so I had a helluva time with this camera. I have since (I think) rectified the matter but have not had a chance to really test it. Was not really a fan of the 400 f2.8 mkIII and how it focused. Much prefer the way the mkII focuses but could have also been user-error. Ok, likely was user error. Note to self: Don't show up to a major event with brand new kit that you've never tested. Still got hundreds of keepers though.
I also learned that I cannot underexpose by 2/3 to 1 stop as I would like to with this sensor because it's too dark. Dynamic range is definitely better than the 7DmkII but the dark areas are a little to dark. My concern with that is I will have to compromise on the highlights a little bit because the darks are so dark and not so sure I want to do that. Nevertheless, I figured I'd put-up what I got straight off the camera because for the price of this camera (and quality glass), it's pretty darn good.
There is no editing done to this other than the crop and converting the RAW to RGB. Settings like contrast, sharpness were set in-camera so what I shot is what I got.
Definitely a little crunchier for my tastes with the noise than what I'm used to getting from my 5D mkIV but overall, decent. Jury is still out though on whether the 90D is viable for me to use. Not a fan of crop sensors and how they cut-into/trim the perspective-feel/look compared to a full frame. Time will tell after some more testing and using the 300mm f2.8 and what I can get.
