En train de prendre des photos dans la Cupola. Une bonne photo, c'est d'abord beaucoup de préparation et ça commence en général par notre logiciel de navigation. Il permet de repérer ses cibles dans un catalogue assez limité (j’ai préparé beaucoup des miennes avant la mission). Il montre aussi les zones jour/nuit, une image de la couverture nuageuse plus ou moins à jour, et surtout la trace au sol des orbites futures... et puis c’est à peu près tout. Contrairement à ce que les gens croient parfois, c'est très compliqué de photographier une zone sur commande. Tout d’abord, la rotation de la terre et la précession du plan de notre orbite font qu’on ne survole qu’épisodiquement et parfois un peu aléatoirement les différentes zones du globe. Ensuite, il se peut que la zone soit survolée certes, mais en pleine nuit… ce qui laisse peu de possibilité de photo (à part les villes très éclairées). La lumière n’est en général pas non plus suffisante en matinée et en soirée (d’où les couleurs plus pastels qu’ont parfois mes photos). Les nuages se mettent aussi souvent en travers de la vue 😤 Dernière complication et pas des moindres : la plupart du temps, les bons passages au-dessus des bonnes cibles ont lieu… pendant notre journée de travail ! Pas question de s’absenter au milieu d’un expérience même pour un passage à la verticale de Paris ou du Mont Saint Michel 🙈 Au final, il y a certains lieux (villes, montagnes, îles, etc.) qui ne m’offriront qu’un seul passage adéquat en 6 mois de mission… Et bien sûr, une fois qu’on se met à la fenêtre au bon endroit et au bon moment avec la bonne météo, reste à identifier sa cible à l’œil nu (à 400km…) et à prendre une photo techniquement correcte. Avant de me reprocher de n’avoir pas pris en photo votre lieu préféré, pensez-y :)
Taking pictures in Cupola. Good planning for a picture is half the job, and for us it starts with our navigation software. It allows us to catalogue our targets (although I prepared many in advance before I left Earth). The software shows us where it is day and night and even cloud cover predictions, but most importantly it shows us the future orbits, and that is about it. Many people think that we can take a picture of a specific place on Earth on command, but it is much harder than that. First of all our orbits mean we only fly over specific areas periodically. Secondly even if we do fly over an area of interest it might be during night-time so there will be nothing to see unless it is a city with bright streetlights. The lighting in the morning or evening is generally not good enough either (this is why some of the pictures have more pastel colours). Then there are clouds that can get in the way 😒. Lastly, and not the least, often we pass over areas… when we are working. We cannot drop everything we are doing at 14:35 for example just because we really want to take a picture of a city or a mountain or other marvel of Earth. Even if the stars align and we have the time, the orbits and the weather is in our favour… we still need to spot the target from 400 km above and setup the camera settings correctly!

I am more behind than normal with film developing and scanning as I am doing a lot of training again ahead of various triathlon events. It's not a chore, I really love the cycling (my joint #1 obsession that comes out with the sunshine!) but it means I don't always get chance to edit / post etc.
This photo was me testing a new lens I bought for my 4x5 Intrepid camera. The well regarded Schneider APO-Symmar 120mm f/5.6. A tiny lens considering the size of the film format! (see a photo I shared on my Instagram a few weeks+ ago)(similar size to a Leica lens)

(@f5.6 1/4 sec)
I will post a full review on this camera and lens when I get chance + more test examples
Scale model of a 1960's SLR camera with cloth focal-plane shutter, variable and B shutter speeds, instant-return mirror, interlocked wind-on mechanism, focusing "lens" and automatic diaphragm with stop-down preview button. Working shutter speed dial and aperture ring.
No actual optics - demonstrates mechanisms only.
oh hello old konica camera.
i'm panicing right now,
i have a geometry midterm in two days
..and haven't started studying at all.
yay for procrastination!
Filming and Photo's being taken for the TV show, The Grand Tour (S03 E14 - Funeral for a Ford) in Lincoln England. This light (flash) was being used to photo cars and there owners at Lincolnshire Show Grounds.
This camera was placed at the Nightjar nest in the Forest of Dean as part of a long running research project. Over a period of 8 days or so, around 9 hours of footage was captured, revealing many interesting behaviours and a couple of dramas. The video begins before the two eggs hatch, and ends just before all the birds vacate the nest. When they left, they only moved a few metres after some deer trampled the nest area for a second time. I had to keep this video to 3 minutes due to Flickr's restrictions. There's a longer version (17 mins) at youtu.be/KjxS97znBq8.

Everytime he sees me with the camera he starts posing! It's great in some respects, but awful when you want to take candid shots!
The camera shy visitor never did show himself, only his antennae. I always enjoy finding hidden extras in my photos.
My son Matt set the challenge (that not many of us have taken up yet!) to buy a camera for less than £10 (currently $14.94 - I've just googled it!) - it could be online from somewhere like eBay, but I got my camera, a ViviCam 8018, from a charity shop (to be fair, it looked like £10, which is what I was charged, but it may have been £16, as the price was scribbled on roughly!!)
First of all I was pretty chuffed with my buy, as I saw on the box it said 8.1 MP (that's more than my old Nikon D40!) and 8x zoom, but I didn't realise it was only a digital zoom! And the 3 triple A batteries don't last very long at all!!
This photo is straight from the camera - I resist the temptation to try and enhance it in any way! Please ignore the date - it's totally wrong!!
not very creative or anything, i just like the school buses in the background and felt like uploading it
random- i really love every single one of my teachers this year. i don't particularly like school (at all) other than my first 3 hours-photography, journalism & spanish 3- but i really love my teachers . just sayin'
thank you SO much for your testimonials! look at their streams!
the collection as of december '07
not shown: the camera that took the picture - nikon d40
or the digital camera on the macbook or in the cell phone.
brings the tally to something around 56 cameras.
most cameras seen here were thrifted. the majority cost $1 or less.
in cases. and the ones i use are on a shelf.
i don't want to pay for film any more. i don't want to buy $7 batteries to use in cameras that cost $1 a shot.
i know i can get film for all of the cameras [except the polaroid roll film, that's the only one dead. the sx-70 pack can be modified, etc]
if i happen to find polaroid 600 film for a quarter a pack, then hell ya.
in the mean time, i'm goin digital and stockpiling film cameras for fun.
Camera: Canon EOS Elan II E
Lens: Helios 44М-6 58 mm f/2 MC

All right! from submin.com then :)
The Petie cameras were distributed by Walter Kunik Frankfurt am Main, Western Germany during the 1950s and early 1960s. The cameras where made by different manufacturers.
The Petie takes 16 exposures 14x14mm on 17mm roll film. A number of sources quote either 14x14mm on 16mm or 16x16mm on 17mm film. The film strip measures 17mm across and the camera, measuring the frame in the camera, gives an image area of 14x14mm.
(1960) The Tuxi range are similar to the Petie. The Tuxi has a flash synchronisation socket and with B (bulb) and M (1/50) settings. The lens is the achromatic Roeschlein 25mm f7.7, fixed focus and capable of very good quality pictures. Objects are in focus from 90cm (3 feet) to infinity, particularly if stopped down to f16, It was sold as a kit with proxar lens, yellow filter and lens hood. (Mine came without these)
This was a 37 second exposure of a very dark room. Didn't notice the projected image of the abandoned building across the street until I got home. A tiny hole in the board covering the window created a pinhole camera effect.

Radcliffe Camera, Oxford - 21mm Distagon
Had to get in close to the fence to avoid the daytime tourists in front of me, so then forced to tilt the camera upwards post correcting the verticals later in PS.
Added some HDR processing and BLENCOMO to add some drama.
I bought a new camera today. My old one, a trusty Olympus C470 was a fine compact camera for its day and has served me well since 2005, but seven years down the line its battery is knackered and compared to newer cameras it's slow and not particularly light sensitive. So, time for a new one. A Canon Ixus 230HS. This is literally the first picture I took with it with everything set to auto except for the flash, which I switched off. Not bad, is it?

New gear to play with and hopefully a good little walking around street camera. Time will tell.
Oh, and I already love the little popup flash. Reminds me of R2-D2 for some reason. Very cool!
Cheers,
Wade
