In the animal kingdom, courtship between individuals can be just as elaborate as human courtship, if not more so. While humans show their affection by sending flowers or taking their loved one out on a date, animals have their own […] Admit it, there’s something weirdly fascinating about the sex lives of animals. We’ve all witnessed a curious kid asking why a dog in the park looks like it’s glued
ごはんをたべて、ごろごろする部屋。 こたつに入って、ローソファーでごろごろしつつ本を読むのが至福のひとときです。
Chile's Puyehue Volcano Erupts Alan Taylor June 6, 2011 21 Photos In Focus On Saturday, a volcano in the Puyehue-Cordon Caulle chain of south-central Chile erupted after lying dormant for more than 50 years. The government evacuated several thousand residents as Puyehue threw ash more than 6 miles (10 km) into the sky, pushing the plume toward neighboring Argentina. Authorities had already put the
A couple weeks ago, I was listening to a story by NPR's Planet Money team about "Toxie" a toxic asset they had purchased to follow and help tell the story of the recent financial meltdown. One of the mortgages in Toxie was on a home bought for investment in Bradenton, Florida, and the team took a look at housing in the area. Many homes there are empty and have been for years. Huge developments sit

In the Fall of 2009 the concept of Strobox was brought to life through an iPhone app. In 2010, we created a community site to share the diagrams generated by that app. And in 2011, we published our first book. A few years later, you are holding in your hands the result of what has become our annual tradition. It contains a selection of fifty of the most amazing and popular photos shot by just as m
Top はじめに... このページ以降の内容は、カメラを使って撮影するときに背景がどの程度ぼけるのかについて説明したものです。ボケといっても「ピントが合っているかどうか」という小さなボケではなく「背景をぼかすことで被写体を際立たせる」というような目的の、はっきりとしたボケのことです。 最初は数式や光路図(下に描いた図のようなもの)を使ってフィルムやCCDセンサーなどに写る錯乱円(=ボケ)の大きさで説明しようと考えたのですが、試しに書いた資料を(カメラに対する知識があまりない)身近な人に読んでもらったところ、かなり不評を頂きました。どうも光路図での説明ではうまくイメージできないようでした。 計算式で説明すると、このページのようになります。 そこで、数式や光路図はなるべく使わないという方針で書き直してみました。再度読んでもらったときに質問のあった事柄を全て解説に追加していますから、内容がくどく
During normal times, Joe Ruggiero Jr. might hold 25 funerals a month; this April there have been 71. Due to a surge in COVID-19 cases, his family’s funeral home in East Boston is so overrun that the tribute lounge and cafe normally used to display portraits of the departed has been turned into a makeshift storage space. A thin white sheet of plastic held together with binder clips is all that sepa

As I'm sure you already know, textures can come in very handy; whether you're using them to subtly add interest to your work, or in full-blown, award-winning photo manipulations. Bokeh is the term used to explain the blur, or the aesthetic quality of the blur in photography, and is usually seen in good quality macro shots, in the areas that lay outside the depth of field. As bokeh is more than oft
insight3d lets you create 3D models from photographs. You give it a series of photos of a real scene (e.g., of a building), it automatically matches them and then calculates positions in space from which each photo has been taken (plus camera’s optical parameters) along with a 3D pointcloud of the scene. You can then use insight3d’s modeling tools to create textured polygonal model. It is free and
Construction workers and organizers in Shanghai, China are busily completing tasks ahead of the planned opening of the 2010 World Expo on May 1st - planned to be the largest World Expo in history.

Robots continue to grow in their importance amongst law enforcement, military use, medical research and care, space exploration and entertainment, among other tasks. Robots recently in the news include Russia's decades-old Lunokhod rovers - recently photographed from Lunar orbit, the naming of "Curiosity", NASA's next Mars rover, and a robotic dental patient, designed for realistic training.
