This panorama took some time (and all my RAM) to edit this evening HDR Pano stitched, tweaked and polished off in Lightroom, Affinity Photo, Luminar 4 and finally ON1 Photo Raw 2020.
One of my favourite images of 2019 thus far .. :-)
the inner workings of my new computer !!
built and installed by the Turvey boys, my own personal geeks who keep everything running smoothly because if Mama is happy then everyone is happy :))

I had the great opportunity to collaborate with AORUS Gaming to recreate their cute little mascot, the AORUS Chibi!
If you want to build your own Chibi, you can head over to the official AORUS website and play the mini-game there!
I designed three colour variations and also added the option to include lavish eyelashes. Of course, Chibi can be build in other colours too!
You don't have to win, just play the game and you get one of the six versions of the instructions! But there are some very cool prizes as well. The game is active from September 1st to the 30th.
Hope you enjoy!
A Gigabyte X99M Gaming 5 motherboard, just arrived and ready to build on, seen against the background of my then current "Main Computer" (the one I do most of my computer work (including uploading of pictures to Flickr®) at... That computer bricked on me (in Frankfurt, Germany of all places, about a year on from this shot...) and has since been replaced. Taken in Albany, CA by a Nikon D610 at ISO 3600 with a Nikkor 50mm ƒ 1.4 AF-D lens. Exposure is 1/50 sec @ ƒ 6.3.
Also seen, over on the upper right corner, is the mouse for the "Main Computer". this mouse is also now dead, but did not die at the same time as the computer - it served with the German replacement for a while...

AMD Ryzen 3 3200G APU OC'd to 4GHz on all cores. $100
AMD Wraith Spire Cooler leftover from my 3600XT.

Cooler Master Sickleflow 120mm and 92mm fans leftover from my NR200 sff case.
Right now I have it set up as a Plex Server. Had to disconnect the 80mm antec fan. It is obnoxiously loud and a bit superfluous since there's nothing to cool down there.
Amazing what $410USD all-in can get you in the PC game these days.
i've been finally going through the gigabytes of unposted images shot during the G20 Summit in Toronto (June 2010). Will post a few over the next few days before finally moving on to some other stuff. This was shot during the mass protest and arrests at Queen's Park.
Something really strikes me about this gal, a slight look of dispair and sadness and yet a muster of a smile for the camera. Also one hell of a shiner on her left eye from probably being whacked by riot officers and/or pulled to the ground by the undercover cronies and scary cop chick.

During the summer season our photographic society:
www.chesterfieldphotosociety.org/
has a few outings. This one was to the Magpie Mine near Bakewell. It is the remnants of a lead mine and the shapes of the buildings and the sky meant that quite a few gigabytes was used up in photographing the mine and its surroundings. These show how quickly the sky changes over the course of 30 to 60 minutes

Edited Mars Express/DLR image of a large part of Mars from Mars Express images/data. This is a nice-looking projection making it seem as if you are flying low over the surface of Mars. Color variant.
Original caption: Previously, images of Mars were available in strip format – strip by strip carefully flown with the European Mars Express spacecraft and processed into three-dimensional terrain models and perspective images. Now, planetary scientists, under the leadership of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) have, for the first time, joined these individual 50 to 100 kilometre wide strips to create a single large-scale map. The first mosaic comprises 2.3 million square kilometres of the surface, and covers the vast crater-strewn highland region of the Red Planet, parts of the Ares Vallis outflow channel, the chaotic Aram Chaos region as well as the Meridiani Planum and Chryse Planitia plains. "Gerhard Mercator and Carl Friedrich Gauss measured Earth, and with our survey of Mars we are following in their footsteps," says Ralf Jaumann, a DLR planetary scientist and Principal Investigator of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board the Mars Express spacecraft. "The quality we have attained with the HRSC images had never before been achieved."
Borderless and uniform
The mosaic extends over 1800 kilometres from north to south and 1300 kilometres from east to west. Individual stereo and colour images from a total of 89 Martian orbits were combined to create this product. "The strips were recorded at varying resolutions, with the Sun at different positions and under varying weather conditions. The challenge was to combine them uniformly and without visible borders to form one large image," Jaumann explains. For this, the geometric relationships of the individual images to one another and their geographical position must be determined with high precision. In doing so, it is possible to measure Mars accurately and globally.
The data for this wide-area topography of Mars was acquired with the HRSC, which has been orbiting the Red Planet together with Mars Express since 25 December 2003. Nine sensors record the surface of the planet from different angles and make it possible to map our planetary neighbour at high resolution, in colour, and in the third dimension – elevation. HRSC has, during the course of more than 14,000 orbits, recorded and transmitted a total of 293.34 gigabytes of data to Earth. Coverage of 70 percent of the Martian surface with image resolutions of 10 to 20 metres is being used for the highest precision 3D mapping. Additional datasets will continue to be recorded and analysed. About 97 percent of the planet has been recorded with image resolutions of up to 100 metres.
The next step is the successful processing of large-scale mosaics achieved by a working group led by DLR planetary researcher Klaus Gwinner: "Surveying the planet marks another milestone," says Gwinner. By around 2018, the team from DLR, FU Berlin and Hannover University wants to represent the whole of Mars as one coherent mosaic.
3D view of valleys and craters
The first completed mosaic is the basis for a variety of uses. Colour-coded digital terrain models show the impressive differences in height between the Meridiani Planum region at 250 metres below the nominal level of the Martian surface up to the 5000 metres lower-lying Chryse Planitia region. Perspective views look into the Ares Vallis outflow channel or into a crater altered by typical Mars erosion processes typical on Mars. "At present, you cannot create a better image of the surface of Mars to show, for example, of the effects of flood and drought," emphasises Jaumann. Landing missions also benefit from the detailed 3D maps of Mars; for the Mars rover Curiosity, DLR planetary researchers participated in several workshops and used the regional 3D products from HRSC to assist in the selection of the appropriate landing site. In the future, when the landers from the NASA InSight mission or the ESA ExoMars mission land on the Red Planet, the engineers will also be able to produce an extremely accurate image of the landing site in three dimensions – with data from HRSC.
The HRSC experiment
HRSC was developed at DLR and built in collaboration with partners in industry (EADS Astrium, Lewicki Microelectronic GmbH and Jena-Optronik GmbH). The science team, which is headed by Principal Investigator (PI) Ralf Jaumann, consists of 52 co-investigators from 34 institutions in 11 countries. The camera is operated by the DLR Institute of Planetary Research in Berlin-Adlershof.
