Something is going wrong when the camera with its impressive algorithms and countless AF options forces itself into the centre and, hence, between photographer and object. Ideally, I would think, we photographers ought to use the camera as if it was not there. Just focussing on the composition and the 'essence' of the object and having the settings run in the background. I am not advocating 'point and shoot', I am saying that a camera should be built in such a way that we can 'forget' about it and focus on taking the picture. I think my older cameras do that. My newer ones are much more sophisticated and what they are increasingly trying to do is take over decisions I could make myself. What is my reaction? Number one, I prefer using my older cameras. And two, when using my sophisticated ones, I turn off a lot of their computer-powered procedures. I wonder what you think.
Macro on budget with a 35mm. This wonderful Hoya +4 multi-coated filter made my day. It magnifies +4 steps. It costs only €15 FYI.

The interactive Technology Museum is about what technology means in life. In the old factory of the Hazemeijer it is all about steam engines and smartphones, robots and art and energy sources and the planet. In short, everything about people and technology.

Kunta Kinteh Island, formerly James Island, is an island in the Gambia River, 30 km from the river mouth and near Juffureh in the country of the Gambia. Fort James is located on the island. It is less than two miles from Albreda on the river's northern bank.
As an important historical site in the West African slave trade, it is now listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, together with related sites including Albreda, Juffureh and Fort Bullen. James Island is suffering heavy erosion, and is now approximately 1/6 of the size during the time when the fort was active. Ruins of several of the British administrative buildings (including a single cell, apparently used to house the most troublesome captives), a small jetty and a number of skeletal baobab trees remain. The ruins have been stabilised and protected by a capping. Because the island is low-lying, during high tide and storms sometimes waves will beat against some of the surviving structures.
Kunta Kinte, a character described in Alex Haley's book and TV series Roots, has become associated with James Island. He was one of 98 slaves that in 1767 the slave ship Lord Ligonier brought to Annapolis, Maryland.

The biggest security risk in any system is the user.
"Hundreds of Westminster insiders were added to - and then deleted from - a WhatsApp group set up by shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick to promote his London Marathon run".
In this day and age there should be minimum level of competence with technology to gain access to any position of power or trust, (especially after the U.S "signal app" fiasco).
(As we old techies used to say the problem is "BTKAC" between the keyboard and chair).
The BBC has been told Jenrick is not referring himself to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), which investigates data breaches. (What a surprise!).

Sitting on the window-sill and enjoying the low afternoon sun. Illuminated and in sharp focus is the "good" eye, the one I use for photography. The other one plays second fiddle. However, none of them was really involved in taking this self-portrait. It was the artificial eye of the camera in connection with a clever algorithm (automatic eye recognition) that kicked in when I pressed the shutter release (via a long cable). This is one of the situations where camera technology enables me to do things with ease that, if done manually, would have been quite difficult to achieve.
I love technology but especially vintage technology. I shoot vintage cameras and also enjoy vintage radios. This week a photo challenge theme of “Technology” was announced and I decided to put a vintage spin on it. This is the inside of my 1935 Packard Bell radio.

Crazy Tuesday - Vintage Technology

Technology has changed our life quite a bit over the last decade. With messages supporting more features like voice, images and even video than text only, even our seniors could take some good advantages
During my last trip to Cleveland I had the opportunity to visit a village in the local Amish community. The Amish are a group of religious people living in various US States that have Swiss origins. What is very unique about them is the fact that, for the most part, they are reluctant to use many conveniences of modern era technology. That behavior differs between Amish population, with the communities in Pennsylvania being the most ... hardcore in the traditional way of living. Many houses dont have electricity, they dont use tractors to do field work, they dont use cars, they prefer to live like how the previous generations used to. Driving around the Amish country, i encountered a ton of those traditional buggy rides (interestingly even if they insist a lot on the old and simple way of life, there was a significant higher number of buggies during ... rush hour, meaning around 9am and 5pm, meaning they probably adopted to modern working hours!). Seeing all these people with the traditional clothes, the long beard and all these houses that didnt have even electricity, definitely felt like a trip to another era.
Κατα τη διαρκεια του τελευταιου μου ταξιδιου στο Clevlenad ειχα την ευκαιρια να επισκεφθω ενα χωριο στην τοπικη κοινωνια των Amish. Οι Amish ειναι ενα γκρουπ θρησκευομενων ανθρωπων που ζουν σε διαφορες πολιτειες των ΗΠΑ και εχουν Ελβετικη καταγωγη. Αυτο που τους κανει ιδιαιτερα ξεχωριστους ειναι το οτι, οι περισσοτεροι απο αυτους, αρνουνται να χρησιμοποιησουν την μοντερνα τεχνολογια και τις ευκολιες που αυτη παρεχει. Αυτη η συμπεριφορα διαφερει μεταξυ των πληθυσμων των Amish, με αυτους της Pennsylvania να ειναι οι πιο σκληροπυρηνικοι στον παραδοσιακο τροπο ζωης. Πολλα σπιτια δεν εχουν καν ηλεκτρικο ρευμα, δε χρησιμοποιουν τρακτερ και αλλο αγροτικο εξοπλισμο για τις δουλειες του χωραφιου, δεν εχουν αμαξια και προτιμουν να ζουν οπως ζουσαν οι προηγουμενες γενεες. Οδηγωντας στην χωρα των Amish συναντησα πολλα απο αυτα τα παραδοσιακα buggy (αμαξες) (το ενδιαφερον ηταν οτι αν και επιμενουν στον παραδοσιακο τροπο ζωης, συναντησα πολυ περισσοτερα buggies κατα τις ωρες αιχμης, δηλαδη στις 9 το πρωι και τις 5 το απογευμα, οποτε πιθανοτατα εχουν υιοθετησει μοντερνα εργασιακα ωραρια). Βλεποντας ολους αυτους τους ανθρωπους ντυμενους με τις παραδοσιακες φορεσιες, τις μακριες γενειαδες, να μιλουνε ακομη την τοπικη γλωσσα και να ζουν σε σπιτια χωρις ηλεκτρισμο εμοιαζε πραγματικα με ενα ταξιδι πισω στο χρονο.

Absolutely love the way this turned out. It's inspired by this concept art from Elysium. Something I've wanted to do for quite a while now. Not quite done yet as I need to add to the interior cargo area and make some actual cargo for it, but I wanted to get this photo before the decals aged or something happened to them. This is also the first time I've been able to get a white background to look good in a long time! XD
