A blockbuster Apple keynoteĪpple CEO Tim Cook, never one to undersell his company’s products, did not fail to point out the momentous nature of the new features coming soon to iOS, macOS, tvOS and watchOS. ![]() The new software features ranged from seismic shifts (a new branch of iOS just for iPads) to tiny tweaks (makeup for Memojis) to momentous privacy advances ( Sign in with Apple). The first two hours brought an astonishing avalanche of new features coming to iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple TV. And the reactions to that rumored price hike - both at the Apple event and in retail - will go a long way toward determining if the bold bet pays off.Undeniably, Apple raised the bar on tech keynotes with this epic blast of innovation.Īll in all, the carefully scripted presentation lasted about two hours and 15 minutes. So coming out with the most expensive iPhone ever in that environment is a risky move to say the least. But I don't think that will happen, not when the overall smartphone market is still in decline, falling by 6.8% year-over-year according to IDC as people hold on to their phones for longer.Įven Apple has not been immune to market forces, with iPhone shipments down 2% in the 2nd quarter compared to the previous year. So Apple going above that with the iPhone 15 Pro Max price is certainly within the realm of possibility, especially if the new phone includes double the storage of the iPhone 14 Pro Max - going from 128GB to 256GB.Īnd maybe the price hike rumors have been circulating so long for the iPhone 15 Pros that people at the Apple event will wind up shrugging it off. ![]() ![]() There's already a more expensive flagship phone from Samsung in the Galaxy S23 Ultra, which starts at $1,199 / £1,249. But will it be worth an ultra premium price? iPhone 15 Pro price outlook This could be part of the reason why the iPhone 15 Pro Max may wind up being called the iPhone 15 Ultra. There's even rumors the iPhone 15 Pro Max could go to 10x zoom. This would allow the Pro Max to achieve 6x optical zoom, compared to 3x zoom for the iPhone 14 Pro Max. This would allow you to quickly silence calls but also launch the camera and perform all sorts of customizable shortcuts.Īnd while both the new iPhone 15 Pro models should get camera upgrades, including a possible new sensor from Sony, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is tipped for an exclusive new periscope telephoto lens. And titanium is pricier than the stainless steel used on previous Pro iPhones.Īnother notable rumored upgrade for the iPhone 15 Pro series is a new Action button that would replace the ringer switch on previous models. For starters, both new iPhone 15 Pro models are tipped to feature a stronger and lighter titanium design. ![]() However, we've heard that the iPhone 15 Pro could get a $100 price hike and that the iPhone 15 Pro Max could be $200 more expensive. The current consensus is that Apple will retain the pricing from the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus, which means $799 for the iPhone 15 and $899 for the iPhone 15 Plus.

![]() ![]() Because the coneflower petals were closer to the flash than the butterfly, they were slightly brighter than I wanted. I used a Canon Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX II Flash with a camera exposure that balanced the ambient background lighting. Fortunately, I had taken multiple photos and was able to add a small strip to the right side of this image, with ideal wing position, from one of the others for a 52.9 megapixel final image size. The result in this case was that the butterfly's antenna was slightly closer to the right edge of the frame than I wanted. I'm still struggling to retrain my brain to frame slightly wider with the extreme resolution of the Canon EOS 5Ds R available, allowing minor cropping to achieve perfect framing during post processing. In this case, the spangled fritillary butterfly was quite tolerant of my presence and I was able to utilize the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS Macro Lens at a close distance. Longer focal lengths permit longer working distances. Most macro lenses work well for flowers, but butterflies are sometimes not comfortable with a lens close to them. A raised planting box offers a similar advantage. Because these flowers are planted on a bank, I can shoot horizontally across the flower tops (to get blurred blooms in the background) without lying on the ground. The shape of the flower permits full view of the butterfly and the working area keeps the butterfly busy long enough to get the photo. Alternatively, find a public garden.Ĭoneflowers are one of my favorite flowers and a small garden of them behind the house provided hours of distraction (I mean "gear evaluation") for me this summer. Find someone who has this passion and share your photography passion with them in the form of images and prints. Planting flowers that attract butterflies takes advantage of both and planting them in your yard means fast access to these great subjects.ĭon't have a garden of your own? Don't want to do the work?

In this position, the attached FlashBender Softbox protruded out over the end of the lens to provide a broad overhead light on the flower, creating nice soft lighting without harsh shadows.įrom a compositional standpoint, I positioned the flower so that the lines of the petals would radiate into the picture from a point about 1/3 of the way into the frame from both the bottom and right. Creating this light with an on-camera Speedlite is a challenge that is perhaps best-met with a Rogue FlashBender Softbox.įor this photo, a Canon 600EX-RT was mounted with its head in the forward position. This shot was taken handheld at 1/25 and near 1:1 / 1x magnification thanks to IS.Ĭreating a soft, even light on a close subject such as this one is a challenge that is often best-met by a small softbox positioned just outside of the frame. ![]() The benefits of the narrow aperture are a faster shutter speed (it was extremely windy at the time of this shot) and a completely-blurred background. Careful alignment of the leaf is necessary to keep an adequate portion of the subject in focus. The frost creates a sharp contrast with the dark red leaf and the very dark background.Īn f/2.8 aperture yields a very thin DOF at this short focus distance. This fall-colored leaf is covered in hoar frost. The camera position is such that the entire length of wings falls into the plane of sharp focus. IS helped me frame the shot precisely, tightly and kept the shot sharp at 1/50 sec. This shot made great use of the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens' image stabilization. This Polyphemus Moth has not taken its first flight yet, and with perfect wings, required almost no post processing. The Polyphemus Moth is very beautiful - especially when they are just out of their cocoon. I immediately went into action-photography mode and timed the shutter to include the spider in a balanced composition. I was shooting this Helleborus flower in my studio when the spider climbed out of its hiding spot and raced across the leaf. ![]() For macro shots, a narrow aperture is needed to keep a significant portion of the subject in focus.

Parallels is also the only virtual solution to run Windows on a Mac that is officially endorsed by Microsoft. Parallels became the first virtualization software to officially support Apple Silicon ARM M1 & M2 chip Macs although other virtual machines have beta versions that support it. Parallels 17 was another evolution in the product as it had to be re-engineered for some fundamental changes in macOS 11 Big Sur, Monterey and beyond into Apple Silicon. Parallels 16 and 16.5 brought significant speed improvements plus beta support for Apple Silicon M1 Macs. It also allowed Mac users to use seriously graphic intensive apps such as Windows only CAD applications for the first time. The last major update to Parallels was in Parallels 15 which was a big step-up from previous versions of Parallels because it finally supported DirectX 11 and Apple Metal API which allowed Mac users to play Windows only games such as FIFA, Age of Empires and Fallout. We think it’s by far the most convenient way to get Windows on your Mac because it’s incredibly easy to setup, launches Windows apps or games quickly and allows you to switch between macOS and Windows instantly. Not only this but you can run just about any other operating system in it such as Linux and Android on it which allows you to play games such as Among Us which aren’t available for Mac. You can even copy and paste files and documents between macOS and Windows as if they were one operating system. In fact, it can run over 200,000 Windows only apps on a Mac according to Parallels. Parallels is a virtual environment that allows you to conveniently run all those Windows only applications and games that don’t run on Mac.

If i can get a RWG map with a trader in or on the edge of a major town or city, It makes the game a lot more fun for me. Navezgane's traders are all evenly spaced roughly 2km away from the next nearest trader.ģ. I severely dislike running for 4 hours of the day just to get to a location.spend 8 hours there, and 4 hours back.i'm wasting half my time. It makes running quests and rechecking for certain key items significantly less frustrating. I look for RWG maps with two traders near each other if possible. As it is, I already know the traders are arrayed like the 5 pips on a dice, that means exploring to try to find traders isn't a thing and will never be a thing in navezgane unless they redo the whole thing again.Ģ. I start up new games often enough that knowing where a given POI is will quickly become a thing. boxes after a TOUGH POI dungeon crawl to find inside:ġ. I doubt there is a more disappointing feeling than finding a couple of Working Stiff/Shotgun Mess. Otherwise you're strongly encouraging gaming the AI or kite-and-ditch, which isn't fun. Like 200+ rounds for most stuff) or the XP rewards for irradiated zombies (if they have 2x the health make them worth 2x the XP). Either dramatically improve the POI rewards (tons of ammo. Make it worthwhile to kill the strongest zombies and the zombie bears. Next POI I clear I'll just kite the irradiated ones out to a pit outside and ditch them or brutally exploit the AI to just farm them with stone arrow headshots.ĭon't make me do that. If it takes 3x the ammo and resources to kill a radiated zombie but he only gives 20% more XP it's best to just ignore/kite them. Flat out not worth it save as XP farming, which I can still do faster/easier just running around. 4-8 glowing zombies means that I'm losing resources clearing the POI. The only negative feedback I have is this. Have a parkour and L-shaped ladder entrance up an outside wall. Have stairs and ramps with gaps so they climb and try to jump but they end up falling on spike traps. The structure is too large and has too many different support points to worry about getting dug out.

We must receive the HTML form’s input elements in our Razor Pages handler. OK, one more step: we’ll have an interactive HTMX-powered modal. If you have a message-only modal, you can stop here, but if you need modals for further interactions, the next section will show you how to handle that use case. Please read the HTMX documentation to understand how to use hx attributes for your solutions. I’m using HTMX’s hx-target to tell HTMX where the following response should go. HTMX will process these attributes as it adds the HTML clientside DOM. Looking through the HTML, you’ll see HTMX attributes sprinkled throughout. scopes the modal so we can keep creating them IndexModelĬonst modal = new bootstrap.Modal('#my-modal') The behavior will enable you to use HTMX and the JavaScript the Bootstrap development team intended. HTMX will execute any elements immediately, allowing you to perform the necessary setup for HTML. The modal is your run-of-the-mill Bootstrap modal but with some additional JavaScript. Now that we have that part let’s look at the modal HTML itself. The Razor Pages handler is a simple endpoint that returns an IActionResult. Also, remember some of these attributes are part of the HTMX.NET library and the tag helpers it provides. I use ASP.NET Core Razor Pages, which works with any backend technology. Let’s start with our button and what HTMX attributes we’ll need. ![]() When our user clicks the trigger, we want to request the server to generate and return our modal HTML. If you’re a backend developer, implementing these steps will get you the intended behavior, and it’s all straightforward. The endpoint that receives and responds with a user-specific response.The endpoint that receives and renders the modal.The interactive element is a button a user will click to trigger a request to the server.So how do we get dynamic modals that we generate on the server? Well, spoiler alert, HTMX, of course! HTMX and All That Jazzīefore we start looking at the code, let’s look at the parts of the process we need to consider. Most developers want dynamic modals based on user interaction or situational modals. Static modals are great, but likely not what most folks want. Modals have to already exist on the page as HTML or programmatically added through JavaScript calls. You can find these interactive portions of bootstrap modals in the JavaScript library that accompanies the library, but there’s a caveat. You typically have all three working together to get the intended behavior the Bootstrap team intended. Bootstrap Modalsīootstrap modals are built with HTML, CSS, and Javascript in mind. Please note I’m using the HTMX.NET library and ASP.NET Core tag helpers. For folks who aren’t aware, HTMX is a hypermedia-focused library to build interactivity into your client applications with server-rendered responses. This post will show how to use Bootstrap modals with HTMX. That said, the JavaScript aspects are entirely optional, and the toolkit has a “Bring Your Own JavaScript” philosophy to integrate Bootstrap visual components into whatever frontend library you choose. Additionally, no frontend toolkit is complete with the accompanying JavaScript to make components interactive. If you’ve done any frontend development in the past decade, you’ve likely interacted with Bootstrap, a toolkit focused on providing developers with CSS layout rules and components.
