Welcome to the Neowin photo gallery! Here you can post your pictures and discuss your photography techniques.

Please be mindful of our members on dial-up and try to keep the dimensions of the pics and the size of the files to a respectable size for 1024 x 768 viewers. Please refrain from quoting images in your replies.

I will also ask that you link to images on your own space, as much as possible.

Try to put more details from your camera settings and also talk about what you have done with photoshop.

There are a lot of photographers here that like your editing skills and would like to learn more.

The previous thread can be found here.

Thanks!

I totally forgot it was March today - wrote a reply to Moonmans quip about photoing my sons with about 7 images and, don't you know, the thread gets consigned to the archive!

Whatever, it's March and I took a coupl of images!

Clockwise from Left: Natural Light>UV Filter>IR Filter>Blue Crimelite (and filter)

Blue crimelite used as light source here - trying to get Charlie not to move during the long-ish exposures (1+ seconds) was not easy :laugh: - reason he has his eyes shut is that the light source is quite powerful and can give you a bit of blindness for a few minutes/hours if you look directly at it.

focus is actually a bit off in the large version of this but I still like it (manualf1.8 50mm lens used - focusing is a bitch :blink: )

@mdagar Really like the second one, creative :)

@ bald :shifty: Cool effect with the crimelite! Also nice stuff with teh filters, really gives you an idea how much filters change a photo!

@ Jordan: Is that fog/smog? Or focused through something? Either way, it came out Really nice.

Hmm at first I thought it was like a 3 second action and burst mode, but then the dude in the background didn't match, first he's bored, then interested, then bored/turning away :p

On topic, good stuff crazzy! Even the guy's feet look the same in all shots, heck if you look from the waist below, you couldn't tell teh difference. (Y) (Y) Did he win at least :p

Just realised I made an error in the description of my "popart" cactus.

It's, clockwise from left, Natural light>UV Filter>Blue Crimelite (and filter)>IR Filter. The crimelite produces a nice pink/red on the cactus. It does the same with black coloured mass produce plastics (like mouse casings/monitor bezels/cordless phones - its a bit strange but I guess it is to do with the quality of the plastics.

Pic again:

Well, since the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics are officially over (I'm actually going through Olympic withdrawal), I thought I would go ahead and post some of the pictures that I took on a recent trip into DT Van with a buddy of mine.

good stuff

:p i was trying to reply but it was locked. haha

which is more impressive? His consistent form or my consistent timing on the shutter release? :p

*awaits sarcastic comment from moonman* :p

HIS FORM! haha! wat? no strobes?! :o

4402902064_a89a3963cc.jpg

are these photoshop filters or actual filters you put on your lens?

Real life filters on my lens. PECA 904 (i think - don't have it to hand just now) for IR (effectively a R72), PECA 900 (again not entirely sure of #at moment) for UV and a Yellow GG495 - specific wavelength filter by Foster Freeman for the crimelite.

With any luck I'll see dedicated Fuji S3 Pros converted into a UV and IR specific cameras and should get much clearer differentiation between shots of the same subject (though with change of camera rather than filter I'm unlikely to have the subject photographed exactly the same in each of the four shots.

Fingers crossed for the conversions - work paying for it!! :laugh:

I really like that one (Y) :)

The photo is good, the border with the drop shadow... well... that's ugly IMO.

This is CISCO's VP, he was at a talk at my university:

I built a small white light box thingie last night, it was made of thick paper so it's now destroyed (due to the water). I did get a couple of nice shots out of it though.

    • We need a game update frequency setting. * Right now your recent games will be auto updated overnight, and your unrecent games won't be updated. The bifurcation of recent and unrecent is fine, but we should be able to control the update frequency for both, with any of the following options: 1. Don't auto update 2. Auto update weekly 3. Auto update overnight 3. Auto update immediately (push) i.e. When I'm playing a lot, I want my recently played games to have push updates, so if a dev releases an update at 4pm, it's already downloaded on my Xbox by the time I get home. The current overnight cadence leaves a lot of wasted time waiting for updates on slow connections. My infrequently played games in ok with deferring to overnight, or maybe weekly, but let the users control their frequency. Basing it on data and last played sounds smart but ignores the human reality that often when I'm busiest and have the least time for games is when it sucks the most to come home and find a huge update list waiting for you.
    • Genocide is intent to exterminate and both the Israeli government AND its people openly declare, even boast about their intent to exterminate Arabs. This society of sick psychopaths has even made songs about it. Zionist means believing Israel should exist as an religious ethno-state where only Jews have rights and everyone else is second class citizen. As for the blood libel thing, we already know zionists get off on killing children. We also know Israel is a safe heaven for all the pedophiles and rapists of the world. Honestly, after what we saw in the Epstein files, I wouldn't put anything past this depraved death cult. Of course all atrocities committed by tHe wOrLds mOsT mOrAl aRmY are always "unproven or taken out of context". Unfortunately for them, their soldiers are dumb enough to leave a trail of their war crimes all over social media. Then again, when you live in a society that's obsessed with death and destruction, posting videos of yourself in the act of ransacking homes and desecrating religious monuments earns you brownie points I guess. Israel is the only society in the world where people come out on the roads for the right to **** prisoners. Also claiming that the BBC said this and AP said that without so much as a link has gotten me curious. Are all zionists this dumb? I really hope you aren't getting paid for this because this is some low effort propaganda.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac by Taras Buria Microsoft has announced a major update for the OneDrive client on macOS. Today, the company released version 26.098, promising significantly faster sync, optimized CPU usage, a smaller memory footprint, and better energy efficiency. In a newly published blog post, Microsoft acknowledged that changes implemented in OneDrive for Mac in 2022 brought some unwanted side effects. Due to architectural changes and the need to keep the OneDrive sync engine unchanged, Microsoft created a hidden cache folder. With time, it would cause reliability and performance issues for customers. Now, Microsoft is ditching the old engine for native sync, delivering a faster, more reliable experience. As a result of this change, OneDrive for Mac now integrates more deeply into the operating system, offers about two times faster sync performance, and uses fewer system resources. While the hidden folder still exists, the app only uses it to store files that have not been uploaded yet, link file types, and macOS-related packages. In total, even when holding hundreds of files, the temporary folder does not take more than a couple of megabytes on the drive. Besides optimizations, the new sync engine enables external drive support, allowing you to keep your OneDrive folder on a removable drive (it should meet all the requirements). Microsoft is now rolling out the updated OneDrive client for Microsoft 365 Insiders. To check if your Mac has the new sync engine, go to the About tab and check the app version. If it ends with something like 26H, you are on the new engine. If not, you are on the old one. Microsoft says it will take a few weeks to complete the rollout to Insiders, but it won't say when to expect the update in the stable channel. Big performance updates for OneDrive on Mac came right after Microsoft confirmed it would soon kill document editing in Office 2019 for Mac due to expiring certificates. This change will force users to look for alternatives or switch to Microsoft 365.
    • Sorry but that makes no sense. What does using the same laptop have to do with anything?
