Dunno why I like this but I do. What is it?

It makes me think of 80's man/machine shows like airwolf/street hawk/knightrider. Don't ask me why that's just what conjures in my mind when i look at it.

Well it is a sculpture at my University it is several meters long. I have been unable to find the title of the piece though.

One photo near my parent's home:

Was playing around with long exposures and a torch with the wee lad today. Got some cool shots, though I couldn't seem to get images pin sharp. I pre-focused to the height of the torch above the camera but still got slighty soft images - might be due to the torch I was using?

Anyways:

You can see the dirt on my UV filter in this image :blush:

Really liking this little image:

4204705798_93bd8629a9.jpg

I cropped a good bit from it, was nothing in the cropped off section just black. Thinking it may become my new photog avatar or sig image.

Any tips on getting sharper focus, was at F/22 on bulb. The torch I was using was LED but the bulb didn't protrude so that when it reached the top of each swing the light isn't pointing towards the camera (that's why the faded trails towards the outer edge of each pic).

4 sleeps! :D

images snipped for great justice :)

some awesome ones there, good long exposure work from a technical perspective. some are quite mesmerising. for sharper focus on something where you don't *know* where focus will be, and obviously, autofocus can't lock on, you're pretty much on limited options. what I would recommend is a larger aperture - at f/22 you're likely suffering diffraction limitations which are going to start softening the image quite a bit.

An alternative solution to just stopping down - use a shorter focal length. A 17mm lens on an APS-C sensor at f/8 hits its hyperfocal at just 6.3ft, as an example.

I used f22 to limit the light (couldnt get it totally dark) but i just remenered i have an nd4 filter, couldve used that an opened up the iris a bit - d'oh. I'll try that next time.

Balddragon, really cool shots, did the lamp have the colors or where they added in post?

it was a little gerber torch with a rotating lens with 4 coloured gels. I jusy turned it halfway beteween 2 coulors to get the two colour effect you see. Except for the star one - thats a case of multi exposures

      After enabling it in about:config, customize, density, compact; the toolbar/address bar gets smaller vertically. I enabled Nova, I notice the tab bar/title bar is a bit larger vertically now? Everything always becomes a waste of space.
    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
