    I’m afraid I may not have much for this excepting some statues; I’ll have to archive around and see what I can come up with.

    Yep. I mentioned that back when I first noticed it. Not only does the same image posted in different threads get a unique URL, I think the URL for a given image also periodically changes.

    It also breaks the pop-to-original/larger-image feature on Bibliostats. Clicking on images now takes you to a Fark 403 page.

    I’ve decided I don’t like this change. 🙁

    Here’s one from yesterday with the sun; it was just past high-noon (astro-noon, that is), so the ISS was as big as it can be. I’m also not entirely happy with the focus; but it wasn’t the focus, it was the atmosphere in this case.

    I wish they had upgraded the sensor on the 5Ti. I’m not waiting around for 6.

    I did get it, but it’s not very sharp (my bad). It’s in this week’s contest anyway.

    Nope. Saving up for the “very-low” rated at ISO 6400 6D myself. Only 3.5 weeks to go….

    What takes me 2 minutes will take me 15 seconds. Far fewer chances for the gnats to fart during the exposure. Honestly, for a casual shooter, who’d pay for such a thing? But for astrophotography…it will take me to another level.

    Only 2 overtime shifts left to work. Then waiting for the paycheck. It’s Killing. Me.

    The T4i uses the same sensor as the 3 and 2, so if it’s cheaper to rent either of those, go for it. Same goes for the 5. I really wish they’d upgrade that sensor, preferably before I shell out the 2 grand for the 6D :o)

    You got bumped off NBC? Those rat-bass turds. I’ll bet you feel like Malcolm Jamal Warner.

    You’re still the ‘Cosby’ kid we’re all admiring. And Google search sez you’re famouz. So there.

    Not my contest, also, but I think that picture is described right in the theme, Predle.

    ennui; that’s taken with my 2Ti and f/1.4 50mm, coupled with the antique Darlot Lens I’ve discussed before, making a very effective macro lens. Thanks! F/14 for what little DOF there is (on a macro scale, quite a bit really), 1/200th second exposure ISO 400 (you can see in the reflection there were small poofy clouds; as they moved, the shutter varied on aperture priority.)
