At least these girl's aren't going anywhere :-)
Note: Taken with a 1 megapixel cell phone camera at a Victoria's Secret in Manhattan.
The European garden spider (Araneus diadematus) has several English names. It's also known as the diadem spider (hence diadematus), crowned orb-weaver, cross spider and serveral variations on those.
Regardless of name, it is a very beautiful spider which come in lots of colour varaitions.
This particular one is a female and hade made a large web behid the door to my mother-in-law's green house.
Originally, this was shot in portrait mode. Not the fake-bokeh-crap in mobile phones, but as in portait and not landscape.
People looking at photos on Flickr don't seem to like shots like that though so I turned it into a landscape shot in post in Photoshop, which resulted in this being a whopping 11078x7385 (~82 megapixel!) in size so there are plenty of detail to zoom in on.

STORY
4 years ago, i was so crazy about how people click such beautiful Milky way shots?it was a dream of mine to click one picture of Milky way... I don't understand how people do that... After a lot of hard work i succeed. I manage to click some single shots. I was so happy that i can't tell. Many years have passed, now i don't prefer them as good pictures, seeing the pictures of many big astrophotographers i became crazy, i don't know how do they get those monster milky way shots. I have spend many days to get the idea. And then i found the secret, Yes, now you can see the result of that, my dream is complete now. Don't think that only setting up the camera on tripod could pickup this picture easily. This picture is created by combining 190 pictures. First i have stacked it for noise reduction. Then i have merged it with panorama and also there was some secret processing . That day the sky was very clear that's why you can see full details. I'm requesting to everyone to share this and comment on this picture . Thank you

A 6 Megapixel DSLR from the year 2003.
Ready to talk about this classic DSLR after using it for two weeks. If you want to see its image quality, just look at my last 5 images. Purchase the camera for two reasons, the price was a bargain and I wanted to see for myself its image quality; after seeing some photos from Sammy Collazo with this camera. As soon as I receive the camera and hold it, was impress by its beauty and well built. But more impress when I inspected the raw files. Then after two weeks of abuse, got the dreaded Canon Error 99. I did everything I found on Google, and the camera was not working. Then I remember that it started to get the error when I did a Mirror lock-up; so it occurred to me to carefully hold the mirror up while pressing the shutter. I was able to fix the problem, just lucky. So glad that I'm still able to use this excellent 18 years old DSLR and is part of my working cameras collection.
(Spanish: Reseña de la Canon 10D.)
Compre la camera para ver personalmente su calidad despues de ver fotos por Sammy Collazo con la camara. Es una cámara solida y hermosa. Los colores, contraste y resolución son excelentes hasta para imprimir a tamaño A3. Mientras la estaba usando esta semana me dio el temible error 99. Trate todo lo que encontré en Google, pero me recordé que el error comenzó cuando selle el espejo para arriba. Entonces se me ocurrió aguantar el espejo cuidadosamente mientras oprimía el disparador. Y resulto que se arreglo el problema. Muy contento de todavía poder disfrutar una cámara que tiene mas de 18 años).

This is my first light image using the QHY128C a 24 Megapixel full frame Cooled CMOS camera. The image was captured from GrandMesaObservatory.com in Purdy Mesa, Western Colorado with a Takahashi E-180 Astrograph. The are two TAK E-180’s that are configured as dual scopes on one mount, or bino’s.
I am very pleased with the performance of the QHY128C and I grossly underestimated the depth and detail in the final image.

Encompassing the emission region designated Sharpless 171 is the star forming complex NGC7822 a spectacular example of a stellar nursery. The emission nebula shines as a result of the ionizing radiation from one of the hottest stars known; BD+66, which has a luminosity 100,000 times that of our sun. Curiously enough, BD+66 is also an eclipsing binary, which means that it is actually two stars in orbiting each other and are aligned in such a way that one star occasionally eclipses the other from our perspective, is a very young star forming region; no more than a few million years old. It will continue birthing new stars for several million more years until the radiation from the new stars blows away the last remnants of hydrogen gas, leaving behind a small cluster of young bright stars.

In this Hubble Palette version (SHO) the H-Alpha is mapped to green, SII is mapped to red and OIII is mapped to the blue channel. while the colors in this image are not the true colors, the narrowband filters used in the making of this Hubble Palette image reveal much more of the hidden gasses not visible in a broadband image, I used Starnet in Pixinsight to make the image Starless and then added the more natural star color by inserting stars from the LRGB image. Captured over 6 nights in September and November 2020 for a total acquisition time of 27.1 hours.

Less than one hundred light years from the Orion Nebula lies the aptly named Horsehead Nebula, another outcropping of the Orion Molecular Cloud and one of the most recognizable assemblies in the heavens. Whereas the Orion Nebula generates enough light to be visible to the unaided eye, the Horsehead has a far lower surface brightness and presents a challenge to visual observers even with large telescopes. But it’s a delight for astrophotographers and arm chair stargazers.
The Horsehead complex lies just south of the brilliant blue supergiant star Alnitak, the easternmost star in Orion’s Belt and just north of the Orion Nebula. The glowing reddish-pink region in the background is cataloged by astronomers as IC 434. Like the Orion Nebula, IC 434 is an emission nebula. It’s powered by the blazing-hot star Sigma Orionis, just south of Alnitak. Much of the nebula is permeated by tenuous streaks caused by magnetic fields in the region.

I got my first batch of Colour RVP slides back yesterday from the developing lab. 4x5 colour slides are pretty amazing to look at on a light box. I decided to scan this one in at full optical resolution on my scanner (6400dpi) and it gave me an image that was 661 megapixels (and a TIFF that was 3.69 GB). Hmmm, somewhat overkill I think.
Taken with my Tachihara 4x5, Nikkor 210mm on Fuji Velvia 50. Taken from the summit of Akadake in Nagano, Japan.
Samen vom Blaumohn, aufgenommen bei 10:1 durch ein Mitutoyo 10x APO PLAN. Das ist ein Ausschnitt aus einem Panorama aus 21 Stacks a 236 Bildern, also 4956 Einzelbilder, das Original hat 240 Megapixel.
Groß genug um es bei einer Kantenlänge von 1,8m bei 300 dpi zu drucken.
Poppy seed, taken with Mitutoyo 10X Apo Plan, clipping from a panorama, i took 21 stacks with 236 pictures and stitched them together in ICE. The original picture has 240 megapixel and is made of 4956 images. Big enough for a 1,8 Meters wide print with 300 dpi.
Be sure to download it if you want to experience the full 250 megapixels! Yes, that's a real 250 megapixels 🌞
It’s an impressive experience – definitely worth it! Unfortunately, flickr can’t display more than 20 megapixels.

I wanted to push the camera to its limits and combined 16 photos into a 250-megapixel composite image.
My goal was to fully utilize the current state of the art. The image sensor is shifted exactly 16 times, each time by one pixel row. This not only increases resolution but also dramatically improves color accuracy: Each pixel captures all primary colors, unlike the Bayer matrix, where neighboring pixel colors have to be estimated. Additionally, this method completely eliminates noise and significantly enhances dynamic range.
The RAW file is nearly 1.8 GB in size. Editing such images requires at least 64 GB of RAM and ideally an Nvidia RTX 4090, as its 24 GB of VRAM is fully utilized.
This image demonstrates what sensors might be capable of in 20 years, but even today, the hardware and storage demands are immense.

A 10 Megapixel DSLR from the year 2005.
For two weeks I have been using this camera on my daily hikes and to post images to Flickr, and is time to give my review. Realizing that this is a 10-megapixel camera from 2005 with the old CCD sensor technology. I will say that I'm very impressed by its handling, construction, and professional features like intervalometer and many others. Its image quality is excellent; the only thing that I miss was Live View, but the AF is so precise that I was able to always nail focus. I'm so glad I own this excellent camera and that is part of my Nikon collection.
(Spanish): Por dos semanas he estado usando esta cámara para postear mis fotos aquí en Flickr. Y ha sido tan grata experiencia que estoy ya preparado para dar mi opinion de ella. Primero hay que realizar que esta cámara es del año 2005 y utiliza la vieja tecnología del sensor CCD. Pero les dire que no veo diferencia en las images con respecto a las cámaras nueva. Solo dire que he quedado super impresionado de sus rasgos, manejo, características profesionales como intervalometro y mas. Y de su calidad de imagen. Lo único que extrañe fue el "Live View" pero el enfoque AF es tan preciso que todas mis fotos salían enfocadas. Muy contento de ser dueño de esta cámara y tenerla en mi colección de Nikon).

ENG: A little review of our summer vacation. We love this place with its fantastic view to the Alps. ☻ This time there is a 48MP photo version. For a few days we stopped in Füssen, directly at the German-Austrian border. And since the days were very very warm, we also spent quite a long time at the Hopfensee and could enjoy this wonderful sunset.
Hopfen am See is a district of the Bavarian town of Füssen in the Swabian district of Ostallgäu in Germany and almost a stone's throw from Austria. The air and Kneipp spa, which is characterized by tourism, is located on the northern shore of the Hopfensee about four kilometers northwest of Füssen and offers a beautiful view towards the Alps.

GER: Ein kleiner Rückblick auf unseren Sommer Urlaub. Wir lieben diesen Ort mit seinen fantastischen Blick zu den Alpen. ☻ Diesmal gibt es eine 48MP Foto-Version. Ein paar Tage lang hatten wir Stopp in Füssen gemacht, direkt an der deutsch-österreichischen Grenze. Und da die Tage sehr sehr warm waren, sind wir auch ziemlich lange am Hopfensee gewesen und konnten diesen wunderbaren Sonnenuntergang genießen.
Hopfen am See ist ein Stadtteil der bayerischen Stadt Füssen im schwäbischen Landkreis Ostallgäu in Deutschland und fast einen Steinwurf von Österreich entfernt. Der vom Tourismus geprägte Luft- und Kneippkurort liegt am Nordufer des Hopfensees etwa vier Kilometer nordwestlich von Füssen und bietet einen wunderschönen Blick in Richtung der Alpen.

ISO 25,600 with 45.7 megapixels? No problem!
Earlier in August I had the incredible opportunity to run around with a pair of Nikon D850 bodies, testing them out day and night along the coast of Maine and New Brunswick. This shot is from the cliffs of Grand Manan.
The Nikon D850 is the successor to the D810, but it's quite an upgrade! The sensor is backlit, and from my experience that plus the Expeed 5 processor in the D850 provide amazing results for high ISO images at night. At 20 seconds, f/2.8, 14mm, and ISO 25,600 the results are great and using some noise reduction goes a long ways. I also did some star stacking of 10 shots at 10 seconds each at ISO 26,000 and then stacked with Starry Landscape Stacker (Mac only but it can be done manually in Photoshop) to produce pinpoint stars and a very clean sky.
The flip-up LCD screen and illuminated buttons are very nice additions and make shooting low and/or in the dark easier. I also used the flip-out screen when shooting with the tripod a bit high, I could swing the LCD out and down a bit for easier viewing. And it's a full touch screen LCD, making picking a focus point in live view and zipping around 100% previews pretty easy.
This shot consists of 3 exposures blended for depth of field and low noise. All shots are taken with the Nikon D850 and Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 lens @ 14mm. The sky is 1 shot at ISO 25,600 for 20 seconds, and the foreground is made of 2 exposures, 1 at ISO 1600 and f/4 for 60 seconds during blue hour to get the very very close shrubs in focus, and 1 at ISO 1600 and f/2.8 for 16 minutes in complete darkness for the background cliffs and water. I didn't use a blue hour shot for the background cliffs and water because I find the blue hour shots result in harsher shadows than really exist in total darkness, and I wanted the Milky Way reflection in the water and in the right spot to match the Milky Way in the sky, which means that in situations like this I have to take a foreground exposure (at least for the water) generally right before/after taking sky shots.
Stay tuned for some more posts and articles with this camera!
