How do you protect fragile souvenirs while keeping your suitcase light? Hey! I’m an exchange student studying with one hard-case suitcase and a carry-on backpack. I’m returning home next week, and I (regrettably) promised my family I’d bring them home some pretty fragile souvenirs – I have a jar or two of jam, three bottles of olive oil, a bag of nuts, some baked goods, and a small glass cup….not to mention all of…

( www.reddit.com )

Scarcity mindset and frugality keeping me from being happy I’m a 27 y/o attorney and started making $125K/year a few months ago.

How do I achieve these light trails while keeping the subject sharp?

( www.reddit.com )

How do I achieve these light trails while keeping the subject sharp? Do I need a speed light? Or is this achievable with built in camera flash? The concert photography I normally shoot is in very low lighting so I struggle keeping the subject in focus even with f/1.4 ISO 4000+ and lower-ish shutter speed since I still want to capture movement. submitted by /u/jockeydinner

We are going to work on taking my name off the mortgage next mont…

LPT – If a tech offers to buy your car, it might be worth keeping it. Auto Technician’s have a pretty keen awareness of how much life a vehicle has left in it and what’s worth fixing or not.
