“Black-headed Grosbeak parents fly south with worn feathers after breeding season. Their molting locations had been a mystery. The California scientists solved it with relatively inexpensive Global Positioning System (GPS) receiving devices.

They attached the 1-gm electronic devices to a leg of each grosbeak. The devices wake up every 2-6 weeks, record the GPS position and switch off. The GPS device, leg harness and leg bands weigh less than 2 g, or the equivalent of a long-distance runner carrying a laptop in a backpack. Each bird must be recaptured to download the data.” Topbirdingtours.com

data streamed out of the heart of the city...

When I saw this I wasn't sure what it was or what it represented as workers were finishing the installation. Since then I've learned that it represents data visualization it reflects the global impact of food production and consumption on the environment. Part of the "Around The Table" exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden. I still don't understand it but it's nice to look at.

 

Under the cover of night, Eurasian forces move through an industrial area of Pristina. The target: a LORO data centre believed to contain data drives taken in the arrest of multiple Eurasian ambassadors during a meeting in Copenhagen. While the Nordic oil fields had been of prior interest, the seized data contained developing information on large reserves hidden along the Northern coast of Libya.

This is an image of an around 50% illuminated phase of our closest planetary neighbour Venus.

 

I managed to get my planetary scope out back in June to image this beautiful object, shining brilliantly in our evening skies then. This represents the last time I have done any planetary imaging due to circumstances.

 

The data has been on my drive since and I'm only getting around to have a look at it now.

 

Venus is one of the so-called inferior planets, as it orbits the sun inside our orbit.

 

This means that Venus orbits the sun faster than earth and from our perspective is sometimes closer to us and at other times is on the far side of the sun. This change in relative position means we see phases for Venus (and Mercury).

 

Unfortunately when it approaches earth and is at its largest apparent size its phase also decreases!

 

This is a false coloured UV/IR filter image to reveal some cloud structure in the thick atmosphere of Venus. Data from the IR filter is mapped to the red channel and that from the UV is mapped to blue. A synthetic green channel is produced from a blend of both. Some lovely cloud structure is apparent.

 

Imaged with a Celestron C11 SCT and a ZWO 290MM camera. Using Baader IR pass and Venus U filters.

The Mata-Nui mainframe has been infected by the Makuta Virus. Engage Data Knight Kopaka to freeze the virus's operations and cool the overheated GPU.

 

My entry into Ron's What If...? contest. I decided to reimagine Kopaka as a sort of cybertech knight dude in a Tron-esque data scape. Originally this was going to be a very different character design, but I ended up splitting it into this and another MOC I'll be sharing in October since the two concepts didn't really merge well.

Miami is a seaport city at the southeastern corner of the U.S. state of Florida and its Atlantic coast. As the seat of Miami-Dade County, the municipality is the principal, central, and the most populous city of the Miami metropolitan area and part of the second-most populous metropolis in the southeastern United States.

 

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Miami's metro area is the eighth-most populous and fourth-largest urban area in the U.S., with a population of around 5.5 million.

 

Miami is a major center, and a leader in finance, commerce, culture, media, entertainment, the arts, and international trade. In 2012, Miami was classified as an Alpha−World City in the World Cities Study Group's inventory. In 2010, Miami ranked seventh in the United States in terms of finance, commerce, culture, entertainment, fashion, education, and other sectors. It ranked 33rd among global cities. In 2008, Forbes magazine ranked Miami "America's Cleanest City", for its year-round good air quality, vast green spaces, clean drinking water, clean streets, and citywide recycling programs.

 

According to a 2009 UBS study of 73 world cities, Miami was ranked as the richest city in the United States, and the world's fifth-richest city in terms of purchasing power. Miami is nicknamed the "Capital of Latin America" and is the largest city with a Cuban-American plurality.

 

Miami has the third tallest skyline in the U.S. with over 300 high-rises. Downtown Miami is home to the largest concentration of international banks in the United States, and many large national and international companies. The Civic Center is a major center for hospitals, research institutes, medical centers, and biotechnology industries.

 

For more than two decades, the Port of Miami, known as the "Cruise Capital of the World", has been the number one cruise passenger port in the world. It accommodates some of the world's largest cruise ships and operations and is the busiest port in both passenger traffic and cruise lines.

 

Metropolitan Miami is the major tourism hub in the American South, number two in the U.S. after New York City and number 13 in the world, including the popular destination of Miami Beach.

Yay for random titles xDD I took this a few weeks ago (notice the exif data XD) BUT I am cleaning out my files & found it! Not sure how I feel about it, but I like it! It's different. I might delete later...not sure. This was inspired by Lanietriplets. I spend probably an hour and a half just taking long exposure photos ha! Have a wonderful day!

two weeks ago I was confronted with my data in a hard way. My large storage device “Drobo” refused to operate after I upgraded it with another 2TB drive. The drive became unresponsive and after a while it did came back giving me the opportunity to retrieve some data…since this was my largest storage device I had to make sacrifices to the data I could retrieve, so I had to delete all my movies, series and software I had collected over the years. Luckily I did manage to backup my photography work.

 

That same week my laptop died and it has been sent back to Apple for repairs.

 

Fortunatly I do hold regular backup sessions, but it’s still a hassle and I’m once again aware that all data is fleeting, and no storage medium is safe from harm. Photo’s can burn, disk drives will fail…it’s time holographic data crystals are made…at least they seem stable enough….

  

Cincinnati (/ˌsɪnsɪˈnæti/ SIN-sih-NAT-ee) is a major city in the U.S. state of Ohio and is the government seat of Hamilton County. Settled in 1788, the city is located at the northern side of the confluence of the Licking and Ohio rivers. The city drives the Cincinnati–Middletown–Wilmington combined statistical area, which had a population of 2,172,191 in the 2010 census making it Ohio's largest metropolitan area. With a population of 301,301, Cincinnati is the third-largest city in Ohio and 65th in the United States. Its metropolitan area is the fastest growing economic power in the Midwestern United States based on increase of economic output and it is the 28th-biggest metropolitan statistical area in the U.S. Cincinnati is also within a half day's drive of sixty percent of the United States populace.

 

In the nineteenth century, Cincinnati was an American boomtown in the heart of the country. Throughout much of the 19th century, it was listed among the top 10 U.S. cities by population, surpassed only by New Orleans and the older, established settlements of the United States eastern seaboard, as well as being the sixth-biggest city for a period spanning 1840 until 1860. As Cincinnati was the first city founded after the American Revolution, as well as the first major inland city in the country, it is regarded as the first purely "American" city.

 

Cincinnati developed with fewer immigrants and less influence from Europe than east coast cities in the same period. However, it received a significant number of German immigrants, who founded many of the city's cultural institutions. By the end of the 19th century, with the shift from steamboats to railroads drawing off freight shipping, trade patterns had altered and Cincinnati's growth slowed considerably. The city was surpassed in population by other inland cities, particularly Chicago, which developed based on strong commodity exploitation, economics, and the railroads, and St. Louis, which for decades after the Civil War served as the gateway to westward migration.

 

Cincinnati is home to three major sports teams: the Cincinnati Reds of Major League Baseball; the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League; and FC Cincinnati, currently playing in the second division United Soccer League but moving to Major League Soccer (Division 1) in 2019. The city's largest institution of higher education, the University of Cincinnati, was founded in 1819 as a municipal college and is now ranked as one of the 50 largest in the United States. Cincinnati is home to historic architecture with many structures in the urban core having remained intact for 200 years. In the late 1800s, Cincinnati was commonly referred to as the "Paris of America", due mainly to such ambitious architectural projects as the Music Hall, Cincinnatian Hotel, and Shillito Department Store. Cincinnati is the birthplace of William Howard Taft, the 27th President of the United States.

While I enjoy Flickr too much to leave, I thought it made a good opportunity to sort through old works and decide on discards - that which I've done to get below 1,000.

 

Right now I've decided to open a second "archival" account and slowly transfer older works in a process. There's no reason to follow that account though it's appreciated, and will keep anyone wanting to continue seeing my work from having to do anything at all. It will still come through as normal.

 

Thanks for the support over the years, and I hope we can all continue doing this and share in some way!

 

(note: when it's ready, a link to the archive will exist in the *last* picture on my stream.) (update: I made a tumblr site to pic dump old work @ vgss.tumblr.com)

This garage still exists and looks more or less identical to how it appears here except for the loss of pumps and pole sign. Here the Arndale branding has gone as, along with the Little David brand, it would be phased out as all sites were unified under the new Butler branding featuring far more red than before. The two recovery vehicles dominate the view but we can see the same pumps still sit on the forecourt. The only indication left that Butler petrol was ever sold here are the canopy supports which are red at the bottom and white for the remainder.
