Brokedown Park 51

This park in Sanya is gone now, I took these photos as they were in the process of taking it all apart on April 30 2008.

 

All of these "Brokedown Park" pictures were shot on an Canon Powershot S3 IS using the CHDK firmware "hack" to record RAW files, then processed in ACR and PS, NR with Noiseware Pro, also I used the Topaz Adjust plugin to make them look cool.

If you have a Canon digital compact camera that uses the Digic II or Digic III processor you can record RAW files using the CHDK firmware "hack," google it, it's awesome.

 

By the way at least one person has expressed extreme dissatisfaction to me about this "Brokedown Park" set of photos. I just snapped them on the way home from work one day, excited because I had just recently bought a new camera and "hacked" it to shoot RAW files. But last week some guy left a comment on one of these photos (of a broken ferris wheel of all things) saying that I had propagandized my "report," that it was "not comprehensive," "not real," and he "beseeched" me to erase the pictures. I just told him that lots of people like to take photos of abandoned things all over the world and that every country has such things and that everybody knows that. And I told him to erase his own pictures. So he blocked me on flickr. What is wrong with people? Cripes.
