The evening sun illuminates Downtown Seattle, as seen from the Space Needle.

Roma di notte ...

io la preferisco alle 5 del mattino ... quando ancora sembra dormire ...

quieta ...

con pochissime persone già in giro ...

allora riesci a percepirne gli odori, i suoi spazi ... la sua essenza, senza che nulla o nessuno possa disturbarti ...

e lei si regala senza ritrosie ...

mostrando tutta la sua bellezza ...

I make this image public in the AVIF format (can be opened in the latest IrfanView, Chrome and Firefox): Link to AVIF in Google Drive

The AVIF image compression (in the HEIF container) is a very promising format as it provides good image quality in a very small package and is (in comparison to HEIC) free of any licenses. I hope Flickr as well as Google and Microsoft products will soon have full support for this innovation.

Besides the high compression efficiency the big advantage over JPEG is that a color depth per channel of 10 and even 12 bit is supported.

This sample is generated using the avifenc.exe command line encoder for windows.

I used this parameters:

avifenc.exe --cicp 2/2/1 -r limited -y 420 -j 6 --min 30 --max 40 --minalpha 30 --maxalpha 40 in.png out.avif

The result is:

- 6 threads used (for my 6 CPU cores)

- to colorspace YUV420 (422 and 444 is not supported by the Windows AV1 extension)

- 12 bit per channel
