I've taken the odd shot of sunset or alike, but not directly of the sun.

From what I've read I need a 16+ stop ND filter. I wasn't due to be home for the eclipse but now I am, but it's too late to get a new filter delivered in time.

I have variable filters 2-32 and 64-1000 which I think combined would give me a 15 stops? If that's right, could I use them on top of each other at their max and use a high iso and f11 or alike to get some shots. I know it'll not be ideal in terms of quality, but would like to try, however I don't want to cause damage to the camera?

For reference I'm using a Canon 77D aps-c body, and those filters are for my 55-250 IS STM lens.

Thanks.

One of our neighbours keeps feeding seagulls, despite us politely asking them not to.

Because of this, the seagulls have taken to our roof as we have a loft conversion (large flat area), and I'm unsure if they have nested or not.

We are now unable to sit in our garden as the seagulls dive at us, and they are regularly crapping on the car.

Anyone know a decent company that could remove them if they've nested, and also fit something to prevent them taking to our roof?

Thanks.

You see shows like Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother and Friends where groups of friends/couples meet regularly to do activities or eat meals together.

Does anyone actually have this as a life, or is it just the ideal sitcom style setting?

Just shared this in the parenting, but know there are lot more people on here who may want to know.

​​I've been unable to find Bernard Matthews Turkey Dinosaurs for a while now, and spotted a few other people commented the same.

With this in mind I thought I'd email Bernard Matthews direct to get an answer.

Turns out they're all being changed from Turkey to Chicken, so whatever you might find is the last of it, see part of the email reply below:

*Thank you for your email regarding the Bernard Matthews Turkey Dinosaurs – We are currently going through a transition process, switching all of our frozen coated poultry products from Turkey to Chicken (the Hamwich being the only exclusion remaining as Turkey).*

They didn't say why they are making this change, but looks safe to say it's a permanent change.
