Computing whether I am a threat or not. Taken at the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge here in Idaho.
This is the hardware side of the NAS solution I was putting together before I came down with COVID. Will have that working shortly. This little computer compared with my very first PC here.
Shot with Sony 24-105mm f/2.8 macro lens on Sony a7r iii.

I've been meaning to upload a building/sea with a dramatic sky kind of shot, but summer's tend to be so unexciting when it comes to new sky material.
It's also a shame to be visiting all these new abandoned places, and not having either the time or computing power to bring them to life the way they deserve.
But, I'm terribly proud of this shot. I think it evokes an emotion, and would love this as an a0 canvas print.

We use this machine at our research center to train deep neural networks and for other compute-intensive tasks.
That is some high tech right there.

I made this picture for the Inria contest on "Computing: past, present, and future". The abacus is, to me, the birth of computing.
I borrowed a camera with a very fast lens, and went to the server room of our research center, where I played finding a spot for the abacus in the middle of the computing equipment. A large numerical aperture gave me a short depth of field, turning the lights in a nice bokeh.
I did fairly little post-processing, using darktable as always. I used a local contrast filter on the abacus itself, and pushed the colors in the top right of the photo toward green.
Old cash register on display at the cute and quaint Al Vecchio Convento hotel in Forlì-Cesena, Italy.
..in west of Ireland. Old Head Beach, located along the County Mayo coastline. This popular beach is located 16 kilometers(10 miles) west of Westport town.
Taken from Noonamah area at about 0300hrs today. Clouds backlit by lightning which was probably about 50Km east of Acacia Hills.
Petri Computor 35, with CC Petri 2.8/40 lens.
Compact camera, produced from 1970 until 1974. Clearly inspired by the Konica C35, so it has the programmed shutter and rangefinder focussing, but it differs in details. The exposure metering in not controlled by a needle displayed in the viewfinder, but by two lights (green/orange) for acceptable or risky shutter speeds. They are visible on top and in the viewer.
The film speed is set with a ring around the lens and not with a fiddly ring inside the filter thread. As the camera has no dial for exposure compensation, you can manipulate the exposure very quickly here.
Cloud Computing is a 12-1 entry for Saturday's Preakness Stakes

Man, I thought this was the coolest thing ever back in the day! So much so that I've never been able to part with it. It's been sitting in my junk drawer for so many years. I was happily surprised that the two AAA batteries had not corroded and also that I found two charged up ones to replace them with. And the thing fired right up!

Today's shot is for The Hereios' theme, computers.
