Went to London Yesterday and took over 400 photos of different locations and this one out of all of them was my favourite.

There will be more on mine and my friends website soon www.panicatthepixels.com if you want to take a look but heres the winning image

The light streaks going accross the water are the boats passing as i took the photo

If you look closeley about an inch down from the left doing accross the photo you will see aeroplane lights arch accross, tell me if you can see them :)

Here is my version off this :) Ross can stop taking all the credit lol.

The exposure was set to bulb which we timed at about 3 mins

Nice pic, but you need to clean your sensor there are some big dust particles on there!

which one do you guys think is the better one, not counting 1 has dust on the image sensor and 1 dosent? just trying to decide which one looks better there both good i would like ur opinions

The second one you posted seems to have more detail, hence I would go with that one, maybe photoshop the dust particles out of the way?

well that would be a first to my knowlage.

How did you take a photo like that?

And im not sure how much you know about photography but its a 3 min exposure, basically press the camera button for 3 min then let it go and it takes the picture, the long exposure time causes anything moving to blur (the wheel & the boats going accross the thames).

You need to shop out the bit off wall at bottom right in the first picture in this thread and rotate the image slightly since the riverbank is ****ed (lower on the left than the right). Nice picture though.

Second one is better but still needs the slight rotation and there is a tiny bit of wall showing.

So, essentially, you need a tripod or something else to rest the camera on so it won't move for the three minutes?

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
