"Unfinished" Church St. George's Bermuda

Thu, 05 Feb 2009 07:00:35 Z

by lostinthetriangle ""Unfinished" Church St. George's Bermuda These ruins are a protected historic monument and part of the St. George's World Heritage Site. Work commenced on this intended replacement for St Peter’s Church in 1874 but bickering within the Anglican community coupled with severe storm damage caused the project to be abandoned. My Primary School was located next door, I remember a hurricane in the early 70's that ripped off what little of the roof remained. As the structure is made of soft Bermuda stone, left to the elements, time, wind, rain and Hurricanes had caused a lot of damage. The National Trust hired a stone mason in the 90's to do extensive work on the property just to prevent further damage and erosion."

the synth is good and indeed the cloud is great
but you need to fix the location as the Parliament is on the other side of the river further up north ;)

Dijon - la chouette

by Pierrot21 "C'est notre petite chouette porte-bonheur, à nous Dijonnais. nous lui caressons le ventre (de la main gauche) en faisant un voeu (raisonnable) qui ne manquera pas de se réaliser. Essayez avec la souris, peut-être que ça marchera aussi... Et faites le nous savoir dans les commentaires! -------------------------------------------------- This is our little owl, bringing luck to us in Dijon; we just caress the stomach as making a wish (a reasonable one) and ... it will work. Try that using the mouse, and perhaps ... Don't forget to tell us in your comment ! -------------------------------------------------- Dijon en 3D: http://buisson.p.free.fr/3D/Dijon3D.html"

by EdLee "See the Point Cloud for the trick. :) This idea hit me a while ago. You can clone as much as you want, limited only by hardware... and the graciousness of the model :) The board shows my favorite pro game, played by Fujisawa Shuko (藤澤秀行, White) and Nie Wei Ping (聶衛平, Black) on Nov 20, 1988. It's a beautiful game because Nie sacrificed his 5 stones in the center for the huge lower right framework -- the level required for this superb judgement is amazing. Fujisawa: June 14,1925 - May 8,2009."

You should set this so that the point cloud shows first

Orbital Propulsion (Gravity Assist)

Sat, 20 Jun 2009 16:02:22 Z

by Nathanael "The cover to this synth does not appear anywhere in it and is actually the work of the wonderful Jessica Blaine Gildersleeve. My snapshots are not worthy of the name photography next to her photos, but when thinking of which photo to use for the thumbnail her 'Delectable' came straight to mind. Please enjoy the point cloud. You can reveal it by holding the Ctrl key or alternately by using the [P] key to toggle from photos plus points, to points only, photos only, and back again. The title refers to the method of using the gravity of a planetary body such as a planet or moon to propel a spacecraft onward with it's intended trajectory. Imagine your camera as the satellite or spacecraft and any object in the scene as the planetary body whose gravity you will be taking advantage of (after a quick orbit) to propel yourself to the next object of interest. This seems to work extremely well and while it is not a very complex concept (take a circle of photos around everything you care about synthing and take photos on the way between them) very few people take advantage of it. Admittedly it does require quite a few more photos than the typical panorama type approach but the results are almost universally better in terms of fitting things into space correctly."

Beautifully surreal. I had to think of something else to write other than "wow!" and the words do fit. You did a great job with the transitions. Before viewing, I wondered what Orbital Propulsion had to do with flowers on the side of a street. Excellent choice for a title. I didn't realize how detailed the point cloud could be. I see now after viewing this, that I have to slow down my "orbital propulsion" a bit.
