elise the great posted:My husband pointed out that even the “unedited” photos are still laden with HDR. You’re not gonna get bright, detailed exterior views AND bright, detailed interior views without some compositing work. My phone'll take a few photos at multiple exposures and autocomposite, and a lot of phones do fancy software tricks these days.

And yeah the edited photos look 'wrong' because he didn't just do up the colors, he did some kind of hosed up brightness curve that looped back on itself somewhere along the line, so the light sources like the lighting on the mirror or the lens flares or the dappling on the floor has a weird dark valley halfway through the gradient. Look at the light sources: And compare raw ones without hosed up editing:

kastein posted:Wait, 8x10 solid? That's uhh, large. Like very little space in between the sistered beams and joists large. Can you post a pic? I can see how this would fix the problem but I'm not sure how they would attach to the engineered I beams. I scanned through most of the last however many pages since he posted that and you're the only one who seems to have noticed that.... Seriously, 8X10 beams? 15 feet long? He'd need the space in between the cut joists and the 8x10s to add more joists to hold those fuckers up.

They just have to span from one load bearing wall to another. As long as the room is 15' in the direction that the joists span, it's conceivable to slide them in place but the surrounding subfloor would have to be removed, plus you'd likely have to move a bunch of MEPs. Sistering in the 8'x10'x15' is without a doubt the majority of the 23k he spent to fix his screw up

part of that might just be his floor not being perfectly flat because, say, he sawed through load-bearing beams and had to redo the support entirely, or just because it wasn't perfectly flat to begin with

It's actually just lens distortion. You can see it across all the horizontals.

Three Olives posted:Honestly I am kind of amazed that plastic pebbles exist, like what is the use case? Actual pebbles are already cheap and durable. Maybe they glow in the dark? Glow in the dark plastic pebbles would be super cool. No need for candles when the females want a romantic bath, just charge up the pebbles to bathe the room in a sinister glow.

notice that although laying tile to make the cutout not terrible is absolutely impossible the tiles in this shot are centered well in a pleasing way

Akett posted:Y'know, you could put glass over the rocks and not have to worry about cleaning them. That's actually a neat idea I actually kinda like the pebbles aesthetic but glass solves the cleaning problem. There's still the slip and fall issue BUT you shouldn't be stepping there due to the slope of the tub.

Source4Leko posted:You probably have a better idea than most of us but I really doubt this was just 23k. The price he quoted in the old thread did not include interior finishes, it was just to correct his novice mistakes and rough-in. So I'd guess he spent roughly 10-15k more on tile, wallpaper, paint, fixtures. $40+k in context for a master bath in a suburban tract house is a lot of money - approaching double or more than if he had just done it right from the start

To be completely fair here, these could be due to the lens of the phone / angle the camera was taken. It's surprisingly easy to straight lines to appear curved, parallel lines to appear misaligned, etc if you're not standing straight-on with a subject while taking a photo. That being said, enough other poo poo is hosed up in this doom bathroom that it's very possible.
