Yeah The Vulcan was definitely very cool. I too was surprised when you realise how old it is. First time going, I work nearby and heard the planes last time :P 

 

What did you use to take those pictures? 

Very nice image Pixel its certainly very scenic round there.

I used a cannon 700D with a 70-300 F4 zoom, images are not as crisp as Id like but I dont have ?300 or more to spend on a higher spec lens

Very scenic pictures. I guy that I work with went to Devon at the weekend and showed my the pictures that he took. The changes in the scenery in the UK are just amazing. 

 

Ah cool, once I get better at taking pictures I need to invest in a proper camera and move away from my point and shoot.

These are from a Fuji X10 which you can pick up for about ?100.

 

Maybe one day I will own a big boy camera :)

Most of what he writes is garbage and appears to be extremely canon biased in his reviews (nothing nikon ever makes is as good as canons) however, he does have some good articles to read here and there:

Took this one yesterday morning at about 3am.

Came out okay, was practicing with shutter speed, iso, and all that good stuff.

I did post tweak the colors (the lights you see give off a green glow which shows up bad in long shutter times.)

Just you dude ;)

 

I've had this problem before there's something up with the Neowin uploader where the pic is visible sometimes and not others.

    • Dude get a clue, LTSC is Enterprise, not even legal for consumers, and ESU is not mainstream support cycle, just an extended security updates period.
    • Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.
