I used to live downriver from there, or was it upriver?  Lived between it and York in York Haven

That was taken a bit downriver from York Haven from the observation point at Rocky Ridge County Park.

So I've never owned a good camera but always fancied trying out photography. I got a Lumia 1020 in February and on Tuesday we had some lovely weather so took a trip with some friends and tried my hand at using Pro Cam on it. I literally know nothing about photography but even knowing nothing about it and just randomly swiping settings till it looked nice I found myself getting quite relaxed and I found that I enjoyed my day a lot more because of it. Think I'll end up buying a DSLR soon, even if I never learn to use it properly it was just such a nice and relaxing experience :)! So here's a couple of pictures I took, nothing impressive and I couldn't tell you anything about them since, like I said, I was just swiping things randomly :P

This one was taken out of a car going at 45mph, thought it would have turned out really blurry but was surprised by how sharp it was!

Took this today while waking around. First time I've done a HDR exposure. It was hand held and not on a tripod so may not be as sharp as it could be. Any feedback would be appreciated. Full size on link.

Looks pretty good, and not overblown like some HDRs. The colors pop just enough to look natural, but not too much to seem overprocessed. Does your camera have an HDR mode, or are you manually creating the HDR via something like Photoshop?

Thanks beanboy!  :D

 

I use a 6D. It has a HDR mode but only in JPEG. I did this with 3 exposures 2 stop difference and processed in lightroom 5 with enfuse so I used the RAWs manually. I've seen a lot of HDR shots. Some really good and some that have an otherworldly CGI kind of look. I was trying to avoid that and try and bring out what was there as much as I could.

 

Looking at it now after a day I think the greens are a little saturated. Obviously I need to use a tripod looking at the tree in the foreground. I might get a cheap one just to keep in my car all the time as well as my heavier one that I would take out when I'm going with photography in mind. 

 

Any advice you might offer?

I forgot other people are in this area as well!

 

I grew up in TMI's shadow... Crazy to think about that accident.

Yeah my wife, and her family have a cabin on the island behind Three Mile Island.   I've posted pictures of TMI from there on here before. It's so odd when the steam stops. 

 

Wow. That's close. Those islands were always nice to visit for a day trip of fishing and kayaking, though.

    • Windows 11 in 2026: Are you fully on board, or still holding back?

      By cooky560 · Posted

      Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By cooky560 · Posted

      Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.

      Kdenlive 26.04.2 by Razvan Serea Kdenlive is an acronym for KDE Non-Linear Video Editor. It works on GNU/Linux, Windows and BSD. Through the MLT framework, Kdenlive integrates many plugin effects for video and sound processing or creation. Furthermore Kdenlive brings a powerful titling tool, a DVD authoring (menus) solution, and can then be used as a complete studio for video creation. Kdenlive supports all of the formats supported by FFmpeg or libav (such as QuickTime, AVI, WMV, MPEG, and Flash Video, among others), and also supports 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios for both PAL, NTSC and various HD standards, including HDV and AVCHD. Video can also be exported to DV devices, or written to a DVD with chapters and a simple menu. Video editing features: Multi-track editing with a timeline and supports an unlimited number of video and audio tracks. A built-in title editor and tools to create, move, crop and delete video clips, audio clips, text clips and image clips. Ability to add custom effects and transitions. A wide range of effects and transitions. Audio signal processing capabilities include normalization, phase and pitch shifting, limiting, volume adjustment, reverb and equalization filters as well as others. Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive. Built-in audio mixer Kdenlive 26.04.2 changelog: Remove not needed actions from render info, fix rough size calculation for rendering. Fix clip sometimes not inserted in timeline when moving vertically in bin drag. Fix transcoding from clip properties. Cleanup render profile audio quality.

Fixes bug #520737 Fix nightly flatpak - disable rnnoise until implemented. Fix missing initialization. Edit mediacapture.cpp. Fix document unnecessarily marked as modified on opening, triggering a backup request. Fix incorrect detection of missing and remote clips causing unwanted backups. Fixes issue #2194 Fix tests. Fix tmp files copied to wrong location when setting project folder. Fixes bug #467740 Fix color clips not selected on creation.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.

      People in the '50s and '60s had the same attitude, and we're still here over a half century later.
