Neowin Digital Gallery - Yearly Edition 2013


Recommended Posts

One of my first photos that I took with my new Canon 480EX II flash- my first external flash. So far, I love it- having the option to bounce off of the ceiling is very handy.

i'm a sucker for kitteh photos!

testing out d800e and 28 afs :D

I bet.. If i were to take a pictures of you in that same moment, you'd be bokehed! ( pronunced boke'd :p)

The closest part of the foreground is rather uninteresting. I think a horizontal crop would be best.

Chase, I like that you took the time offer an edit for discussion!

I found something to do with my lunch break before my next lecture :p The reason I chose portrait was for the effect of the tracks being drawn out, leading off into the distance.

Also mrk, was that the actual wedding venue? That's fantastic!

I am not a professionnal, nor good, photographer in any way. But here is my contribution, taken by my other half with a Canon EOS 600 and a Sigma 18-200 lens, when bringing back my new bike home. Then just had a play with Photoshop for the color / b&w effect.

That's brilliant, really captures the essence of speed, but the BW effect detracts a little (Mainly making it look too unrealistic). Could you post the colour version for comparison?

Thanks mate !

Of course, here it is, untouched at all.

Agree the color one looks so much better.

Also to add a bit, dead centering subjects, does work sometimes, but usually, you try to frame 2/3rd to center

@ Moon, I dare ya, post a picture of yourself completely in focus! You can't! ( I know I know, I browse your flickr, but neowin hasn't :shifty: ).

Obligatory dog photo! King God I mean, Dog, Zeus! Poorly focused! But man, I swear he talks, I woke him up for the photo and he mumbled and woo'd and howled and groaned like "seriously, you woke me up to shine a light in my face?" (AF assit beam)

I just want to see this section of the forum active again. I'm thinking of other ideas for this already. :)

I can't wait til summer, or at least spring time so i can test my camera more. Everything is so dead and dark during the winter. No life, no fun.

but this was cool, although i wish it was all in focus.

Dude your avatar is creeeeeeeeeeeeepy! "chilly" photo :p You could've underexposed a bit, as the bright sky blew the details and focus i'm guessing.

@guppy thats a beagle.

Captain obvious, I meant if it's a character of some sort.

Finally ! :p There's several people that have fled this forum because of inactivity. We tried a monthly competition, but the judge ( Mac.) went missing.

I'm thinking of starting up the monthly competitions again, with a set theme to follow. I'm going to see if some more of the staff are willing to jump on board for judging.

I just found this place! How's this for a first submission? I only have access to the low-res version from work, but it was taken with two external flashes setup for rim lighting, fired wirelessly with a Pocket Wizard. I didn't do the makeup. :)

Welcome to neowin... wait, what? you're a news editor! Never browse the forum huh? :p

Creepy photo, on the critique, Would've focused/lit the face to see the make up, which is pretty good!

I deserve that. :lol: I browser the forums when I have time, but just never noticed the photography forum (maybe because it's called "Camera?")

I had some where the face was lit, but that took away from the creepiness of the shot, so I didn't use those. Here's the complete set on Flickr:

    • KillerPDF 1.4.2 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.4.2 changelog: What's new PDF form filling. Interactive PDF forms now render their fields (text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons) as live controls. Fill them in directly and save — field values are written back into the PDF. PDF outline (bookmark) navigation. A new OUTLINES tab in the sidebar displays the document's bookmark tree. Click any entry to jump to that page. The sidebar auto-fits its width to the longest entry on open and can be dragged wider; switching back to PAGES snaps to the pages-mode width. Fixed Page rotation no longer reverts after saving. Rotations applied via the sidebar context menu now persist correctly through the save pipeline. Copied text words were out of order on PDFs where glyphs are stored in non-reading order (Issue #66). Text extraction now sorts words by position and uses a dynamic line-grouping threshold so both drag-select and Select All produce correctly ordered output. PDFs with malformed or non-standard XRef tables now open in read-only mode instead of showing "Invalid entry in XRef table" and failing entirely.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
    • It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
