Youtube daily report Feb 2 2017

Hello and welcome to Out of the Dark Room on

Adorama TV I'm Ruth Medjber and joining

me on the show today we have Macro

Photographer Chris Connolly. Chris thank

you so much for joining me today and

you're going to talk to us all about

your Macro Photography.

Maybe if you could give most of insight

into how he got started into it. When I

was young my father had a camera you

never really used it I don't want to

bother but it was a common knowledge

that extra understand camera that's

probably about 40 years or 25 years ago

from behind where we lived we had a wood

so on my days off I used

walk around the wood and I'd see

mushrooms and fungi and likens

and I'd start to photograph them and I'd

put them all together and it's like if

you are at an expedition and 1 photograph

can set the other one off, you know when

you put them all side-by-side and

likewise when you put all these

mushrooms and likens and you see there is

different shapes and the different

colours, you realise then the amount of

diversity and live we'll say on the forest

floor. So that's what got me

into Macro Photography and around the

same stage then I got interested in music.

So you know when you're born with a

creative gene you have this need to

create and make magic and all this, so

the music then was a hobby and that was

kind o fulfilled my

creative need and that went on for about

40 years we will say.

Brilliant. And I'm back in 2010 I lost my

job, you know with the recession and that.

A lot of people did. Yeah and I would

have been in my early 50's, so I kind of realized

it's gonna be pretty hard to get

a similar job.

Yeah. So I decided to use the opportunity

to go back to college. So we will say I

was off life's hamster wheel for a while and

I looked upon this as an

opportunity rather than and

something to be depressed about.

So I went to

study photography and I only

intended doing one year but when I was in

college you're in a room full of, you

know we are a group of say 30

people, and they are 30 like-minded people.

You have people from Russia's, you have people

from Poland, you have young people you have

old people, it didn't really matter. To be

in a room full of creative people and

people who will be thinking or their thinking

would be like-minded we will say.

It was fantastic.

So then I decided to go back and do the second

year. What was it about

macro photography in particular that you

loved? Again in around 2010 I'd normally

take a week's holiday's in and around

spring time just to get the garden in

order and all that. In the garden

we have a pond and in springtime then

there is lot's of frogs.

During the mating amazing season when you walk

up and the frogs would be in the pond

they would generally scatter, so you would have to

literally crawl on your

belly and disguise the shape of your

head against the sky.

Insects when your trying to

sneak up on an insect or any animal

you have to go on a straight-line they don't

really notice that movement,

but they do notice this. Really? Yeah so

and this camera that I had at the

time it was a Fuji 600 and there

was a little screen on the back.

You could lift it up and do

all this. So I literally had to put

my hand into the water and have the

screen so that I could see it and stay

there for a while over until the frogs

just didn't notice me and that's when I

started getting into micro, you know

when you realize that you can get into

their world without being intrusive or

obstructive. So it's patience really

then it's like out smarting insects and

frogs and things like that. Its kind of

as you know yourself, knowing your

subject.

Yeah so that got me interested in it and

then because we have a pretty extensive

garden I would start to notice all the other

insects. You know nursery web spiders and

stink bugs, shield bugs, ladybirds. All sorts of stuff

and that kind of, you kind of

realised well I have all this wild life here in this

small area. So then you go out and

think to yourself right, the woods would

probably be like the jungle. You could go out

there and god knows what you will find. So it

wasn't just the whole

process of microphotography that

appealed to me it was the

subjects themselves are interesting.

So you started in your garden essentially

and in the woods, is that where you do

most of your work these days or do you have

to travel abroad to see different types

of insects? Well last year I was the national

winner with a Sony World Photography

and because of that, that has kind of

opened up communications with people I would

not normally have known. Like biologists

entomologist, which I think is

fantastic and entomologists and

biologists know all of these areas in

Ireland. Areas of special conservation or

preservation which I wouldn't have known.

I'm lucky enough, I mean there is one

area of special conservation

that's only about two or three miles from

where I live and it is just

inundated with dragonflies and green

tiger beetles. Like whatever about the

dragon flies, most people know about the

dragon flies but most people wouldn't

know about the green Tiger Beatle. I

wouldn't know. It's a little small

creature but this size, it's luminous green.

We tend to think of you know

exotic insects as being from Malaysia or

Indonesia or South America or in

around the Amazon area. We have some

really exotic insects here. Like this

green tiger beetle Peter it is probably the

fastest insect on earth.

Wow. How do you photograph something so fast?

I know you speak up on

them and you stay like super straight in their eye-line.

That's not always the case that was just regarding the frog.

This is what amazes, I'm like they look like

they just sitting there waiting for you to

take their picture which obviously their not. They are

running around the place. really have to go to the

vehicle and it's flying around. I'd be

armed with knowledge from doing the

researcher as to what their habitat will be

like and what kind of terrain they live in

and I'd go along and I'd say yeah I'm in

the right spot here now because I can see

their larvae have a little hole in the ground

and they come up and grab whatever

but anyway I know I'd be in the

right spot because I'd see all these little

holes and I'd wait, and I'd wait, and I'd wait and see

nothing.

Then I go back and say I'm doing something

wrong here and I'd go back and do little bit more

research and you won't see them if the

temperature is not, the temperature has

the above 20 degrees

because they are so fast they need the heat. They

get their energy from the heat. A bit like

amphibians when the lizards comes

out in the morning and he sits up on the rock and

he gets, charged up, and off he goes.

So these are similar to that,

so I'd go out another day then when the

temperature would be right and I'd be on the

ground waiting for them. Not a hop.

So in that case what you have

to do is you have to catch one

and bring it home. Do you? Ok cool.

I wanted to know this, if you did that

thats cool.

Yeah and you know you get a sod of turn or

something that would be similar to their

own natural environment and you set it

up and you set up your flashes and your

lights and all that and that is how you

get the shot and now having said that

again you can put them down there and he

would be gone.

Oh he'd be in your house. He would but there is only one

room like this room here so it's

not a big job to go and catch him and put

him back again. Noe not into it but that is

fascinating that you catch them and you bring them home

and give you more time and a little bit

more control over things. Yeah

I mean good photographs

they're made. Seldom are they taken by

accident.

You have to think about it, you have

to do your research and think about it

and work it that way. To you what makes a

good macro photograph? I suppose

different aspects of macro appeal to

different people.

Some people like Levon Biss

gets in really, really, really deep.

I like when I'm

photographing a macro subject for all the

backgrounds to be different and for all the

backgrounds to be colorful.

So you know if you're having an

exhibition, when all these

photographs are on the wall, straight

away you're drawn in by just even the

colours without actually delving into

the photographs. So that's what I like I

do like plenty of color and I also like to

photograph insects from their eye level

because most of the time we see insects the are on

the ground

and we're well up above them. It's

like you know when you're doing

photographing for a muscle car you'll

always get down low because it gives

the car more power and

strength. So I like to think that if you

get down at the same level as the

insect and at eye level, that it kind of

you know kind of earns a bit more

respect. Gets a bit more respect from the

viewers we'll say. Obviously you

have a love for these insects, ah I do you yeah.

Do you find that people are a little

bit kind of grossed out by insects or the majority of

them aren't? Yeah they are and especially

spiders.

Yeah so I mean if you have you know you

have all your photographs on the wall

and you know there's dragonflies

and beetles and then there is a section about

spiders and all come along and read all

about them and then they get to the

spiders and skip them.

I like to try and photograph them in a

friendly way because when

you're young and if have the respect for

nature, it stays with you. So the

exhibition last year there were children

there and were interested, and they were

where did you find this and how did you

get that. They were actually

interested in the insects and I'd like

to think that if they get respectful for them, as

I said you know that will continue

on through their lifetime.

So you want to start them at a young age

give them kind of the encouragement to

go and respect nature. It's a whole other

the world.

I need to find out more about it, I do.

But it's educational, it's very

educational, of course. So will you

stay with me and in part 2 we're

going to chat more about the gear that

you use. I will. Thanks.

Well that's all we have time for this

episode join me again because I'll be

chatting to Chris about his production

techniques. If you'd like to brush up on

BMW 5 Series (F10/F11) buying advice - Duration: 9:51.

This generation BMW 5-Series has a less pronounced design than its predecessor.

That was the Chris Bangle 5-Series that didn't have the weird trunk lid of the 7-Series,

but it was still noticeable. This one is gentlemanly, maybe a bit boring.

I think a 5-Series like this one could use an M Sport package to make it look better.

Anyway, that's personal. These are fantastic cars.

You don't need more. It has plenty of room and performance, all options are available,

there's a wide range of diesel and gasoline engines, AWD is available, AT or MT...

Almost no one chose that, but a manual transmission was available as well.

It's not the ideal car, but this segment... The same goes for the Audi A6 and Mercedes E-Class.

Do you need more? No, most people don't.

The range in engines is huge. Most engines have 4 cylinders, especially those in the Netherlands.

There are a lot of different versions, starting at 141 hp up to 592 hp.

That'd be the M5, which is beyond the scope of this video, but it's a 5-Series as well.

There's everything in between.

Diesel engines range from 141 to 376 hp, gasoline engines range from 181 to 592 hp.

Fantastic. There's one for everyone.

ENGINES gasoline, diesel

800 of this generation BMW 5-Series are for sale on Marktplaats, which is a lot.

A manual transmission is rare. That's not strange in this class.

5% of the cars for sale. Some fans like it, but it's difficult when selling it on.

A car like this needs an automatic transmission.

Diesel-gasoline and touring-sedan are both 50-50. Choose what you like.

Prices vary from 20,000 euros to way over 100,000 euros for a very recent or new M5.

PRICES minimum, maximum

There are things to watch out for, but it's not that bad. It could've been worse.

There are complaints about the windshield. People don't like reflections in the windshield.

This car has the optional head-up display, but the 5-Series' windshield is susceptible to chip damage.

Problems with the suspension... A touring comes with rear air suspension.

The struts can start leaking, which is an expensive repair.

The pump can break as well.

Often, the bellows go first, stressing the pump, which breaks, and there you go.

Another thing: rubber at the shock absorbers dries out and tears.

You can only see these tears with the wheels hanging down on a lift.

You don't feel much when driving, so if you don't know, it's not there.

This generation 5-Series comes with run-flat tires.

This means you can keep going on a flat with a maximum speed of 80 kph (50 mph) for a while.

These have more rigid side walls (the sides of the tires) to keep you going when there's no air in them.

This is easily damaged by potholes. I don't think we have a proper Dutch word for this.

Holes in the road. These damage the tires, causing lumps or tears. That's something to keep in mind.

There are no frequent structural problems with the engines.

It can happen, but the 520d, the N47 engine, has a chain tensioner and timing chain.

That's a well-known problem in these videos.

The chain can stretch and the chain tensioner can break. You hear this during a cold start

and it'll rattle at 1,500 rpm. Don't keep driving like this, because it'll destroy the engine.

The automatic transmission returns in these videos as well.

BMW says you don't have to do anything with it, ever.

We know better. Changing oil and an occasional flush extends the life expectancy

and makes for smoother shifts. Keep that in mind and do this when there are more miles on the clock.

A BMW 5-Series can have many electronics, optional and standard.

Much is operated electronically. This means you have to check if everything works.

It doesn't have a bad reputation, but there can be expensive problems.

Check all the buttons. There are some specific things that stand out.

The rear-view camera, for example. When you get an error while in reverse,

you'd expect it to be a software problem, but it's caused by the wiring or camera unit itself.

There can be many cameras on a 5-Series, not just the rear,

but the sides and up front as well to see everything around you.

If something is wrong, you know how it goes.

The gear selector is electronically operated. You don't move it physically.

If you put it in Drive Sport (to the left), it goes into sport mode.

In some cases this no longer works.

You'd think a reset would fix it, but the entire gear unit needs to be replaced.

Again, that's expensive. Another thing to check is the heating in the seats.

It frequently breaks in this generation 5-Series.

Switch it on, for the passenger as well, and make sure you feel it get warm.

It takes a while. It's not warm after 2 minutes. You need to feel something after driving for 10 minutes.

Another thing is comfort access, as BMW calls it. This is keyless entry and keyless go.

You can keep your key in your pocket and you don't have to unlock it with the key or remote.

This works with antennas. Make sure to check this for every door of the 5-Series.

A 3-Series only has it on the front doors. Savings.

There can be errors with warm weather and it won't work.

You need to keep the key close to the dashboard to start the engine.

The heat causes a connection to go bad.

It won't work correctly. The final thing to watch out for causes you to strand at the side of the road

or to be unable to leave the parking lot. Water in the battery box, in the rear.

If you have a trunk... Most BMWs have one because it's better for the weight distribution.

If water gets in, certain areas short circuit.

For example, the electronic parking brake won't release. That's inconvenient.

It can also disrupt the fuel supply. If the engine doesn't get fuel, it won't start.

This car...

It is a very sexy edition.

It was a demo of BMW NL to show a number of things, so it has everything.

Everything. Adaptive cruise control, night vision, and an Individual interior with a wooden steering wheel.

I would never order it like this, but when I see it I think it's incredibly beautiful.

We found it at BMW Breeman in Rotterdam.

Fixing the Health Insurance Exchanges - Duration: 3:17.

[GEAR WINDING]

We've had a lot of recent reports

about the failing of the health insurance exchanges.

There are some areas of the country where

there aren't very many insurance companies

participating in the exchange.

Recently in 2017, there's been a substantial increase

in the insurance premiums, at least in some states.

But there are things that can be done to stabilize the exchanges

and we can learn from states that

have had successful exchanges, like California,

how to repair them.

The first thing is we need to make sure

that the exchanges are attractive for insurance

companies so that more insurance companies participate.

They need to actually see more people buying insurance.

So how do we get more people into the exchanges?

Well, one thing we can do is to actually improve

the marketing of the exchanges.

Keep informing people that they can actually buy insurance,

they have to buy insurance as part of the mandate,

and that there are substantial subsidies

to help offset the premium price--

so marketing, especially to the 20% of Americans

who still don't know that they have to have insurance

and that there are good subsidies to help

them buy insurance.

A second answer is that we can actually increase the subsidies

to individuals, especially slightly higher income

individuals, to buy insurance.

One of the things we've learned is

that people with slightly higher income, like the median income,

actually find insurance on the exchange

unaffordable because their subsidies don't

help them enough.

So improving the subsidies could help people buy insurance.

A third approach is that we can help the insurance companies

through reinsurance so that they are protected

against having super high costs and expensive patients

and by risk adjustment so that an insurance company which

gets good healthy people doesn't actually profit by doing that.

They've helped the insurance companies who've

attracted sicker patients because of their good services

and we balance out the risk pools.

That would allow it to be more financially

advantageous for insurance companies

to participate in the exchanges.

And finally, we might think of ways

of getting people who are not eligible necessarily

for the exchanges into the exchanges.

One thing some states have looked at and actually done

is to say that people who should get Medicaid

through the Medicaid expansion, they'd

actually get premium support and subsidies

to buy insurance in the exchanges.

This expands the pool of people buying

insurance in the exchange and therefore makes it more stable.

So these four ideas, improving the marketing

to bring in people who need insurance but haven't bought

it, improving the subsidies for people to buy insurance,

helping the insurance companies through reinsurance and risk

adjustment, and finally expanding

the pool of people who are eligible to buy insurance

in the exchanges, are all different ways

of stabilizing the exchanges and making them thrive.
