From a Swiss alp, to the British cliffs, to a nearby glacier, to Mexican basalt rock, to a volcano – such as the Renzo Piano Building Workshop has designed for the periphery of Naples. It’s as real estate agents say: context is everything. Whereas iconography usually means a shrinking or blowing-up of an image to fit the scale of the architecture, this enormous building (a shopping mall) has actually the size of a small volcano. This ‘crater’ has a diameter of 150 [ continue reading Volcano, by Piano ] 9 February 2010  | tagged as: architecture |  | category: hills, maps & mapping, one world, photography  | comments are closed  Sheffield 365 Project. Panoramic photo by peter ward. Here we are on a winters morning in the Bear Pit of Sheffields Botanical Gardens opened in 1836. The gardens have undergone a major restoration programme in the last few years and are now back to their former grandeur. A new addition (I believe) is a lifesize model of a bear in the pit, which I don’t think was present before the restoration.

The ones where you could pan around in the scene as the video played? It’s probable that CNN used the Yellowbird camera to do them. The camera uses six cleverly divided lenses in order to capture every possible viewing direction. The data stream generated by the camera is impressive. Through a double glass-fiber connection, a stream of 1200 Mbit per second is captured and saved in an uncompressed format. Check out the demo.

Yeah you knew that, but we are still chuffed. So with Millie training Porridge for his next job in the Yukon there was time for me to snap a Panorama using the iPhone app that goes by the imaginative name, ‘Panorama, I am trying out lots on the phone and the mac and will post others here soon. I will be endeavouring to include as many people in the shots as possible! Click HERE to see the pic and scroll it.

The female PCSOs stopped him and asked why he had been taking photos of the lights and whether he was a professional photographer. Mr White, who works for a financial services firm, was forced to submit personal details to the officers under counter-terrorism laws because officers were concerned he was taking too many photos in a busy area.” (CLICK HERE FOR MORE -> Amateur photographer [ continue reading Amateur photographer stopped for taking pictures of Christmas lights ] narwhals eh? “The LSCP is a secretive body. Take a look at its minutes (available at its website). Many of the most important items are deleted, hidden from public view – for example financial performance monitoring (September 2007), poor quality of camera data (November 2007) and strategic planning (March 2008). LSCP meetings are not open to the public – though no official to whom I have spoken can quote any legislative or regulatory backing for this ban, which is not surprising since the LSCP has never had a constitution.

Halloween’s origins date back some 2000 years to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1. The night of October 31, being Samhain, where it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth. In addition to causing trouble and damaging crops, Celts thought that the presence of these spirits made it easier for the Druids, to make predictions about the future. Later on came the arrival of the Romans who brought many of [ continue reading Magnum photo of the week ] |
