Neowin Digital Gallery - Yearly Edition 2011


Recommended Posts

This first shot would've been perfect if:

1. I had upped teh sharpness a bit

2. Bounced the flash better ( nasty shadow on the right side of teh face is because the flash wasn't exactly in the middle )

3. Probably could've fixed things If I shot in raw... but laziness is meh...

This is a great shot! I am trying to figure this out: The frisbee may be flown toward to the girl on left... or the guy on the right threw the frisbee behind the girl on the left...

This picture probably will confuse people on which way the frisbee goes. See what I mean?

Good job on capturing this perfect shot.

Thanks, yeah I didn't find it confusing at all just because I composed the shot and knew what was happening... but someone else said the same thing lol, the girl on the left was posing for me... well I was walking by, looked at her, she looked at me, and we just knew.

So I put up my camera, she made that "pose" and held it for about 10 seconds (I was waiting for the guy behind her to throw the frisbee)

Saw it on flickr earlier and still think it's a great shot. Only criticism I have is the power line running through the one light is distracting!

Thanks and yeah, I was thinking before I took it that it would be nice if it wasn't there, my only solution really would be to throw on my 35mm, and move forward quite a bit, but I wouldn't have got the same perspective, and I was too tired to do all that work

Edit: or if I was any good at photoshop, I could remove it that way :p

^^ Not that hard, in photoshop or lightroom, just use spot heal /clone tool, it would probably take you 2 minutes at most !

IMO, the cable doesn't bother me, what bothers me is that sign in the middle :p it kinda removes continuity for the street.

Haha, well sure, I could do a quick job, but I am no expert, I have done that before, and no one noticed there was a cable there before, but I could notice it was removed, which bothered me more than leaving it. (if I was good at photoshop I am sure I could make it blend in perfectly with no artifacts, but whenever I use a spot heal/clone tool there are little leftovers/imperfections, and it looks weird to me

Not much I can do about the sign ;) but good observation!

I knew some of you guys post pics of the moon but I couldn't because there is no moon around here due to cloudy. We had a thunderstorm nearby a little awhile ago.. Hopefully, I will keep an eye on the moon when it comes around as long as it looks interesting. Great shots, guys.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
