Could you share more information on this custom python procedural engine?

My rule of thumb in these estimates:

"Always double the amount presented in these estimates"

This includes large construction projects, especially government run projects.

So I say 500 billion USD will be needed :)

Thanks grilledchickenw and xfour, fixed

500 billon, you mean.

Great photos and blog post. I hope other locations on the site would be populated with similar content in the future.

I intend to! I didn't post this here but all these comments have inspired me to flesh this out a bit more.

Nice write up and great photos. But I have to nitpick- the claim that there are no sandy beaches is false- Tjørnuvik Beach is a cool black sand beach. You can even take surf lessons there.

Thanks for pointing it out. Need to visit again and explore more. I'll fix it in a bit.

Stunning pictures - thank you for sharing these. And I thought October on the Olympic Peninsula was darks & rainy! The sheer cliff faces brought to mind so many cinematic moments - seems like a Herzog film waiting to be made. How many of the islands did you visit?

Not the poster, but it's my blog, funny seeing it posted here. This was actually from June this year, which is supposed to be the sunniest month. I got to see just five islands, so there's still plenty more to explore. The cliffs and the rough sea are a mesmerising sight, I remember sitting for an hour just watching the waves crash along the base.

Thank you, kind of you to say. Enough people have said nice things that I've convinced myself that more might be interested in my travel shenanigans.

My god, how can I take photos like that? Do you describe your setup and process somewhere?
grilledchickenw · 5 months ago
Thank you, I don't think I'm doing anything particularly special with my process. I like blacks, and keep photos slightly underexposed, something that most phone cameras will avoid like the plague, brightening everything up. Cropping and composition is also more important than it seems IMO.
