Keldyn, have you started using manual controls or are these pics still auto mode?  just curious if you've attempted manual adjustments

I mostly use manual mode now. It gives you greater control in varying light conditions. Just tonite I was taking shots of fireworks over the university so I had to adjust ISO speed, white balance, exposure and I also used a long shutter time to get the desired results. Oh, and I set the camera to "landscape" mode because i wanted to capture the distant city lights below. :)

Very nice pictures Keldyn. I am also thinking of buying the Canon PowerShot S400.

Should I get that camera?

You have seen my pictures. What do you think? lol Seriously, it is one hell of a camera. It goes highly recommended by the fro :fro:

On a side note, I have just entered into a photography contest. Wish me luck :)

Sure thing. Tell me which shot you like and I will gladly post a larger size.

could you possibly send me everything you took in 1024x768? :happy:

if it'd help, look me up on aol instant messenger or msn messenger and send me them thru that.

good luck in your photography contest! ;) (Y)

Ummm...everything? :unsure: I don't know mate. That is a LOT of pictures. I could zip them all up but it would be a very large archive. While I mean no disrespect, these pictures are my own and I do not want them spread all over the internet for people to do with as they wish. You are welcome to choose a couple that you would like but I can not send you the lot.

Oh, someone asked me for pictures of aussie cars so I will put them up later when I have made them web friendly.

Not a problem at mate, don't worry about it. I had noticed someone all ready was using one as a desktop background in the May desktops thread, and I got to thinking your pictures would get me back to using WebShots again, I could make a category and have it change everyday.

So I was paying you another compliment ;) (Y)

I don't mind big downloads at all if you would want to make a zip file for me in the future.

If you'd rather I would only pick a few, that's cool with my :fro: so I'll choose some and mention them here later.

EDIT - Btw, I had noticed I made a mistake anyway. I didn't mean every single picture you took with your camera so far since you got it. :rolleyes: :p :blush:

I meant all the ones you posted here in the topic. :laugh: :rofl:

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.

    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
