Congrats, Greg!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Supermoon my arse:

Two men on a sandy beach at dusk; the man on the left, in a blue polo shirt, holds up a small glowing object, and the man on the right wears a striped polo shirt with a camera strap around his neck.


The view from Anclote Key in Florida - not so impressive. That's my dad on the right.

Great shot!
 
Thanks. Took a fair amount of coaching from my wife, who is taking the picture.

Nice :smile:!

A person lying face-up with arms and legs stretched out across a stone bench shaped like a melting clock, in a sunny outdoor garden with yellow tape in the background.

So, does that count as planking?

Or, since it's Dali, is it tablóning?

:biggrin:
 
It's been 21 days since the last picture. Time to show off my Rammstein hat and shirt.

Flame on Char.

Congratulations Annie!

Thank you :) Everyone's asking me how I'm feeling - doesn't even feel any different as it's right back to school in Sept. Plus I'm doing an internship at TRIUMF. Seriously, it's like nothing changed.

ETA: I just messaged someone else, but would it be possible to change my username to LadyStardust? When I originally signed up, I had no intention to post and ... well, I signed up with my full name.

Nice :) I took a pic of my brother in the exact same spot there last year

*Not* photo-shopped! Can you figure out how?

Outdoor park scene in three panels joined together: a man in a blue polo shirt and light shorts leans against a large tree trunk, a man in the same outfit sits on a wooden swing bench under a pergola, and a third man in blue sits at a table with chairs on a patio.

Three different cameras?

Panoramic outdoor photo of a shaded park path with tall trees and a wooden bench under a pergola, a man in a blue shirt leaning against a tree at left and another in a blue shirt seated on the bench, a second person seated at a picnic table at right.

You must have used the panorama function on your camera, so it took 3 separate shots but then processed them into 1 wide image?

OK I needed to ask this question on a dumber forum, like "cat people" or something, and not one where physics and math people gather. You are 100% correct.

It was a cool moment when the thought occurred to me I could do such a thing. It was even cooler when my wife went along with it and took the picture.

HTC droid rocks.

Phew, in our family album I have such pictures taken on film in Autumn 1999 (that's what the note says), well before digital cameras:

Two photo prints in a black album sleeve: top, two young men sitting on a brown sofa in a living room; bottom, two men in a small room with a computer desk, bookshelves and a striped blanket. Caption strip reads 'herbst 1999'.


No scissors, glue nor Photoshop used, just an EOS 500 camera and a Fuji film.

And while there is a scanner on the desk, it was NOT used.

I agree.

I've never used a film camera before but the only way I could think on to do that would be to possibly cover half the aperture so you expose one half of the image then switch the cover round and expose the other half, but that would obviously leave an artifact of some kind down the dividing line??

OR Borek has a twin brother?
