:))) My Gato always long deep snored over 8 hours a day so wake her up! and shot...by a camera..mow!
My friend Michael Naimark is exploring new ideas for virtual reality experiences, in collaboration with Google and other researchers. To discuss this work, we got together with two other colleagues, Steve Gano and Jim McKee -- with whom we worked at the Apple Multimedia Lab in the eighties, pushing the envelope on related questions.
We started with a tour of the historic Sentinel Building in North Beach, home of American Zoetrope -- where Francis Coppola worked on many cinematic masterpieces like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. We checked out the underground screening room and sound mixing room where some of that work took place, then headed upstairs to Michael and Jim’s studios, for a wonderful conversation about the new VR frontier.
Michael and his colleagues are researching how people are represented in virtual reality. Their first experiment at Google’s “Big Chairs” Park led to some helpful guidelines on how to film people for VR, by using different camera angles and distances.
They’re also investigating ‘hyper-images’ that resemble a group of people, but that are shot at different times and composited together to create both ‘credible’ and ‘incredible’ pictures. To enable more experiments like these, Michael is developing ‘IMU VR’, a new type of camera that could make it easier for communities to tell their stories in VR. More on this later.
It was great to reconnect with my colleagues and brainstorm these ideas together. It felt like the good old days, and the creative juices were flowing all over again ...

Motion in action -- from an action pistol competition, I was able to photograph this shooter running down range while engaging his targets and just happened to get his muzzle flash at the same time.
I'm happy, this is the 21th photo of my pics which was "explored".

Martonvásár, back of Brunszvik Mansion.
Built from 1773 to 1775, the baroque mansion was reconstructed in the early 1870's in neo-gothic style.The earliest record of Martonvásár appears in some charters in 1270. After the Turkish occupation, the Brunszvik family became owners of the settlement, built their mansion here and established a booming economy. The landscaped parkland around their mansion is still among the most beautiful in Hungary.
Outstanding cultural memories are attached to the Martonvásár mansion, the Beethoven Memorial Museum, and its surrounding park. In the early years of the 19th century Ludwig van Beethoven visited Martonvásár on a number of occasions due to his friendship with the music-loving Brunszvik family, who owned the estate. A number of his works, including the Appassionata Sonata, were dedicated to members of the family, who were inspired interpreters of his music. The Beethoven concerts held in the park since 1958, generally on three occasions each summer, are now a national event. The home of these concerts is an open-air theatre on an island in the lake. Talented musicians from Hungary and abroad are accompanied at these memorable concerts by the National Philharmonic Orchestra.
The sonata, which Beethoven dedicated to Theresa Brunszvik:

The Leonard Cohen song comes to mind when is see this beautiful couple dancing to live outdoor music in the rain.... The shot was actually taken exactly 15 minutes after the previous upload - some times you're lucky and just run into it :-)
Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
The Kiwi Rail passenger train that traverses the North Island Main Trunk line, is principally provided for the tourist market. The "Northern Explorer" as it is now called has received new-build modern passenger carriages recently and has become increasingly popular, with fully-booked trains becoming the norm in peak season. Contrary to this, the timetable frequency has been reduced in recent times with northbound departures from Wellington on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The southbound service from Auckland runs on Mondays Thursdays and Saturdays.
The train is seen here at Thorndon ,shortly after departure from Wellington Railway Station, hauled by a DFB class locomotive in "patched" former Toll Rail livery.
A big THANK YOU to the whole flickr community and especially to all my contacts and friends for your fantastic support and encouragement througout the last nearly 6 years !!
And special thanks to BIGHUGELABS for their "Scout Service" and the great poster feature!
