A close up comparison between HDRAT alignment tool and Photomatix' automatic alignment tool.
Should probably explain this a bit, we are trying to identify the lorry, top left. The underlying photo is of a Standard, Motor Truck Company, Detroit, Michigan.
Comparison of the skull of a spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) with a gray wolf (Canis lupus), a coyote (Canis latrans), and a domestic dog of mixed breed (Canis familiaris).
Clockwise from upper right: hyena, dog, coyote, wolf.
Spend some time observing the differences between each skull.
Most apparent in this picture is the difference in width of the jaws, and the differences in the size of the sagittal crest at the back of the skull. The coyote's crest is the smallest, indicating that it has the weakest jaw strength.
Some dog breeds lack this crest almost entirely. This specimen has a fairly well-developed crest for a medium-sized dog.
Totally didn't realize that I didn't upload my box opening + comparisons onto Flickr.

They are both "Made In Italy"Dedo dolls made in the late 1940s by Maura Doll.
The left girl has a slightly smaller head and the skin tone is yellowish,as she should represent a little chinese karate girl!^_^
Comparison of the center versus corner performance of the Leica Vario-Elmar-R 21-35 f/3.5-4 with a Metabones Speed Booster on a Sony NEX-3. Both images at 15mm f/2.9 (the lens was set to 21mm f/3.5). Left image is crop of extreme corner; right image is crop of center. Both images were focused using the 14x live view focus aid. The corner crop was taken at a focus distance of approximately 8 feet, while the center crop was taken at just to the side of the infinity setting. Actual distance between sensor and chimney: approximately 90 feet (calculated using gmap-pedometer.com).
My conclusion:
The Vario-Elmar 21-35, combined with the Speed Booster, has substantial field curvature. (I believe this is due to the zoom lens' nature, not the adapter.) When this is accounted for, however, light editing can reveal meaningful details in even the extreme corners. Pulling back from optimum center focus will result in increased corner focus performance, assuming the same subject distance. Adjusting focus distance can then be considered akin to using small apertures: if one is willing to sacrifice peak performance, meaningful gains can be found elsewhere at the photographer's discretion.
Notes:
Center crop is enlarged 3:1; corner crop is enlarged 2:1. This is to compensate for perspective distortion, giving the subject approximately the same visual size.
Light edits were made in Lightroom. The corner crop has enhanced contrast and clarity. Both crops have edits for chromatic aberrations. I only spent a few minutes trying to equalize the two; as they're both in excess of 100% crops, feel welcome to download the original image and make your own edits.

Knowing that Europeans eat cheese, cream, potatoes, bread and pasta and, yet, aren't chronically obese, I made a point of NOT giving up those things. I love those things. They make me happy. And, indeed, when I eat raw veggies, my stomach sounds like Treebeard. Instead, I've stuck to 1200-1400 calorie count a day. I've been Ms Portion Control - I do eat spaghetti, but I don't each much of it. Instead of thinking, "I'll never be able to eat potatoes again", I plan a fantastic supper absolutely celebrating potatoes, and lovingly prepare them - and eat half a serving if I had more than a salad or Glucerna for lunch. Breakfast is just coffee, and I'll switch back to cereal eventually - just not now. I still ate two Christmas cookies or a piece of chocolate every night in December and every month since then, and if that kept me from losing weight more quickly FUCK IT because cookies are DELICIOUS. And I have a cheat day once a week where I get to eat up to 1800 calories. Those cheat days are great days... no, seriously, they are fantastic. I am so happy after them. Food makes me feel whole. I don't mean gorging myself - I'm not a binge eater. I mean just having a simple, delicious meal. But I can't eat like other people - like my Mom, who can eat everything I do and stay oh-so- fit and trim. Or like most of my friends, who can eat two or three meals a day. I can't do that without gaining weight. So I'm accepting the reality that I cannot eat three meals a day, that I cannot eat until I'm full - I have to pick an amount, put it on my plate, and that's IT.

Comparing the Jesse and Richard sculpts. I have Thomas too but didn't feel like pulling his head off, lazy me. Jesse's head is larger, similar to Harlequin.
Since I'm a nerd, I was interested to see how a fisheye lens on a DX camera would compare to a wide angle lens on an FX camera. I stood at the same spot and took a picture with each camera/lens combination. The fisheye was at 10mm and the wide angle lens was at 17mm. These are the results...now I wonder what 14mm would look like on the D700.
Here is lots of size comparison in this photo. Boeing-747-400 x 3, Airbus A380-800, Boeing-777-200, Boeing-777-300, Boeing 757-200 and more at LAX
I did a comparison of the same shot developed normally to the instructions and another time stand development for 60 Minutes.
Left shows the normal dev, right the stand dev.

Genesis 1:2 (NLT)
The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
DRAWING NOTES:
TIME OF DAY:
LIGHTING NOTES:
Any light in this scene comes from the Holy Spirit.
CHARACTERS PRESENT:
The Holy Spirit.
RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
This is one of my interpretations of what the Holy Spirit hovering above the formless earth might have looked like. The Holy Spirit is vaguely bird-like, reminiscent of a dove, since He is described as looking like a dove when He alighted on Jesus at his baptism (see Matthew 3:16, Mark 1:10, Luke 3:22, John 1:32). There is deep darkness all around, because God hasn’t created any light yet (see Genesis 1:3, 14-17).
In the foreground is the sphere of the formless earth; indistinct & featureless.
There are two versions of this scene:
01) (Previous page) Genesis 01 - The first 7 days - Scene 01 - Spirit brooding over the waters (Version 01). In which the Holy Spirit is more bird-like, complete with electric feather patterns on the “wings”.
02) (This page) Genesis 01 - The first 7 days - Scene 01 - Spirit brooding over the waters (Version 02). In this version I have made the Holy Spirit look more like a roiling tornado cloud, with lots of movement & lightning. The background space is darker, as is the formless earth.
Below are some different interpretations/translations of Genesis 1:2, as a comparison. Notice the words “hovering” & “brooding” in some of them.
Genesis 1:2 (MSG)
2 Earth was a soup of nothingness, a bottomless emptiness, an inky blackness. God's Spirit brooded like a bird above the watery abyss.
Genesis 1:2 (AMP)
2 The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:2 (ANIV)
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
Genesis 1:2 (KJV)
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:2 (ESV)
2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:2 (RSV)
2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters.

I always like a size comparison photo! :D
It gives my viewers a good sense of the different sizes, IMO.

Since I'm one photo away from my 3000th post, I thought it'd be funny to post a photo of myself for anyone who's curious as to what I look like. However, there are plenty of photos of me on here if you know where to look so I decided to post this comparison photo instead. Both photos were taken on the same bridge which crosses the Keil Burn, near Lower Largo.
An example of hardware tessellated dynamic water surfaces using DirectX 11 in DiRT 2. Many areas of the track are covered in water. The CPU generates the height field texture when cars drive through it. The tessellator using ATI Radeon hardware generates hundreds of triangles based on the camera position. The result: A beautiful, physically accurate, dynamic water surface. In the DirectX 9 version of the game, the surface is an illusion represented by just two triangles.
