I personally have just a Canon EOS Rebel and a tripod. I take most of my pictures outside so I don't have any lighting equipment or anything. I have two different lenses. One 18mm to 55mm and one 75mm to 300mm. Since I mainly do landscapes I tend to use my 18-55mm lens. I only use the other one when I take pictures of birds or the moon.

Hello Asgardians. I'm asking for all people who have translated for us or have said they would be willing to translate for us to please post here. Soon all translations will be done through the forums and I need to know who is here and not. Plus I need to assign the correct user group for the Translators. With this user group you will be able to see the secret Translations forum and also post there. Without this ability you will not be able to help us translate. If you wish to translate for us and have never contacted us before please contact volunteers@asgardia.space. There is not a Personal Messaging system here for me to contact you directly. Thanks! Thank you!

Hello everyone. We already have a project for you right when the forums open! It is very important for all Forum users to understand the rules and not all Asgardians speak English. It is especially important because of a new rule we have had to implement. Due to lack of translation software we have had to enact a rule that only English can be spoken outside of National Chapter Forums. This is because it impedes moderation if all the staff are unable to understand what is being written. We know this may cause some issues but translation software for the forums is on its way. We will reevaluate the rule then Please see the needed translation below. Thanks! __EDIT: Any new translations need to go in the file in the Google Drive folder. Thank you!__ *** 1. Language. Asgardia: The Space Nation is a global community. We respect the cultures and traditions of all Earth nations. However, while we work to develop better language translation skills we choose to communicate in English at this time. Members must respect and accommodate various levels of fluency without ridicule. 2. Discrimination. No discrimination of any kind shall be allowed. Topics and posts containing inappropriate remarks based on one’s race, sex, nationality, age, culture, religion, political belief and sexuality can be edited to remove offensive content, or even deleted without prior notice, and might result in a swift and permanent ban from the forum. 3. Personal Attacks. No personal attacks against other users of the forum shall be allowed. This includes (and is not limited to) insults, inappropriate remarks and excessive aggressive behavior towards your fellow Asgardian. Please ensure to apply common sense and respect the views of your fellow Asgardians. In case of a disagreement, please keep the debate amicable. Escalation of a discussion may result in your post being edited to remove offensive content, or even in the thread being locked. 4. Advertising. No advertising of any kind. Topics containing links to unsanctioned Asgardia content, or to any kind of unrelated content, might be locked and deleted without prior notice. 5. Critical Behavior. Excessive and aggressive criticism towards Asgardia shall not be tolerated. We accept constructive criticism aimed at any aspect of Asgardia, but we will not accept constant criticism and negativity clearly aimed at disrupting the activities of this forum. Inappropriate content in this regard can be locked and deleted without prior notice. 6. Irrelevant Content. Stick to the mission statement of each board. Irrelevant content will be moved by the administrators to the appropriate sub-forum, if possible. 7. Excessive Posting. Avoid excessive posting with the intention of increasing your post count unfairly. Try to consolidate your posts as much as possible; if you want to add something else to the discussion, please consider editing your previous post instead of replying to a topic again. 8. Use of Forum implies Agreement to Terms. When you participate in these discussions, you agree to abide by these rules. We kindly ask you not to create a topic with the sole purpose of complaining about the decisions taken by the staff. If you feel aggravated by our staff, please contact a global administrator who will listen to your complaints and attempt to resolve the situation in the most peaceful way possible. However, please keep in mind that these rules are meant to be respected in the peaceful spirit of Asgardia. 9. Ban. Repeated actions against the aforementioned rules may result in a permanent ban from the forum.

Hello and welcome to the Translation forum. Here is where we will post documents that need translations. This is also a place for translators to gather and discuss translating and translation projects. Please do not post anything in this forum not related to translations or translating. __How this will work:__ You're all used to various ways of contact such as Messenger and Email to get documents needing translation. Here it will work a bit different. 1. A Sticky Post will be posted at the top of the forum with the document. 2. When you start translating __you must post in the Sticky Post saying you are starting the translation and what language you are translating it into__. This will make sure we know what translations are being worked on and who is working on them. 3. We are trying to have multiple translators per language. You may work together with other translators in your language if you wish to but __translations are on a first come, first serve basis__ if people wish to work alone. This means if you see someone has already said they are going to translate in your language you should not start to translate it as well but you may contact them to help if you wish. 4. Once the translation is completed send the translation to __adminteam@asgardia.space__ and __edit your original post to say COMPLETED__. __New rules currently being tested!__ Thank you all for all your good work! ~The Admin Team
