Photos week 30, 2015. I'm a geek, technology and science fan, Trekkie, TV and movie junkie, friend of animals, junk food lover, recreational photographer, supposedly a Gryffindor with a degree in Sinology and Marketing. Stephen Colbert and Emily Blunt have a fake vomit-off. It's hilarious and I love everything about it.…. Just when I thought I was out, they drag me back in: The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II. I like Chucks. I used to love them but over the past….

Video: The Death of Bees. While the quote that's attributed to Einstein might not be from him, if bee colonies continue to die at current rates, we're all going to be facing huge problems.

Aperture pro tip: disable 'Onscreen proofing' or scratch your head because your images look strange.

Page 1 of 1. Just when I thought I was out, they drag me back in: The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II. I like Chucks. I used to love them but over the past two years I got fed-up with the quality and pricing of these shoes. Add to that the fact that a pair of high top Chucks sells for a ridiculous 75. in German retail stores ( I wrote about this in detail two years ago. While genuine high tops can be had for 16. in Beijing (as I was able to see first-hand during a recent trip to China). A quick trip to...

John Martellaro loves the 2015 MacBook's keyboard
http://www.mangochutney.me/john-martellaro-loves-the-2015-macbooks-keyboard
John Martellaro loves the 2015 MacBook's keyboard. When the TMO team was in Breckenridge, CO last week for a writer's camp, I wrote the entire Particle Debris column, published on June 26, on the MacBook. That article was over 1,200 words, and I found the keyboard to be natural and precise. I now prefer it over any keyboard I have ever used. I hope that Apple will soon equip the rest of its line-up with this new type of keyboard. Video: The Death of Bees.

Page 1 of 1. Aperture pro tip: disable 'Onscreen proofing' or scratch your head because your images look strange. Scratching my head is what I've been doing for a couple of days now (also cursing, a lot of cursing) because viewing images stored in my Aperture library looked strange; slightly desaturated, overexposed, etc. So, if you're having the same issue, or if you find that you don't see guides when trying to crop an image, make sure that 'View Onscreen proofing'. Unfortunately for me, Apple seems to...

The price of Chucks
http://www.mangochutney.me/201347the-price-of-chucks
The price of Chucks. I've loved wearing Chucks ever since my dad bought me my first pair of low top Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars in beige when I was seven years old. All in all they're dependable shoes that I know what I'll get out of. What I hate though is the price, or at least the markup this particular brand/model of shoes carries in Europe. To illustrate:. I bought two pairs of high top Chucks in a sports store on NYC. S Time Square in 2009 for the regular price of 35,. Well, I lived in Beijing.

This next one shows nicely why I like ultra wide-angle lenses so much: you can achieve unusual perspectives, especially when getting close to your subject. And my favourite one for last:. Bijou got really comfortable on the couch while we were eating. I couldn't help but grab the camera. I've been shooting wi...

Tasty bits and pieces from the internet, mixed with opinions and canned. Page 2 of 94. The official Rogue One trailer has landed. And it looks great. If the movie is as good as the trailer promises it to be, I'm going to enjoy myself madly. I didn't get to see this movie in the cinema unfortunately but the second it became available on streaming services, I set aside an evening and watched it with my girlfriend. The Honest Trailer is great and just makes me want to watch it again. Source: XKCD Black Hole.
