While technology is all good, you cannot replace good old human-human service. Taipei Metro has some pretty nice gestures. If you have difficulty walking, on a wheel chair, visually impaired, or simply need someone to guide you(a clueless kid), any Taipei Metro station will send someone to escort you to particular…

Not sure if veterans who flew B-29 over Europe or Japan would feel the same awesomeness.

I don't think so. In fact, admission into the park is free I think after office hours. You will see a lot of people hiking to the Delicate Arch just before sunset and stay there into the night. I was there to capture the sunset but had to leave for Salt Lake city right after. I cannot imagine the amount of flash from…

Unnecessary speeding and not keeping an eye on the road while driving is definitely illegal, but having designed for law enforcement in-car products, I do give them respect for the amount of things cops have to pay attention to while on duty. During the ride along I had, the cop that I rode with had to drive,…

And that sounds like a lot of work to repeatedly adjust each frame. That's something I don't have patience for. Plus, this also means that the laying interval will have to be quite short, like a min or so. Otherwise you will see obvious steps on the trail and not as natural looking as desired.

In my experience, laying technique does not reduce noise, because the total shutter speed time is still very long and the sensor will not have time to cool down. This technique is good for insurance. Say if you plan to shoot for an hour with intervals of 5 min shots, and a wave of clouds came in at the 50th minute,…

JUST MOAR EXCUSES TO MAKE SHITTY LOOKING CARS!!!!!

Is there a possibility that the trapping cable gets caught in the landing gears instead of the hook, or is there some kind of error proof design?

I had a design that needed their help on but they weren't helpful. After more than a month of being delayed without any update on the progress, I went somewhere else.

The key to these isn't exactly "technique", but PATIENCE, lot's and lot's of patience! It's not just the patience to wait out in the dark (mosquitoes!) for hours for one attempt, then repeat it several times to get it right. It's also the sheer amount of data to process after getting the shots. Now I cannot imagine…

Any where I can find a good highlight video of the race? I only got to watch the first 3 hours of it.

I only got to watch the first three hours and there were more wheel-to-wheel action than any modern F1 race! Le Mans hasn't been this exciting with multiple competitive players. Porsche and Toyota certainly gave Audi a run for their money,

The trick is "light source", which this guy understands very well. He planned his photos to have consistent light source direction and even readjusted the background to align the shadows to the position of the sun. As long as the light source is constant, the rest will fell in place.

The PT Cruiser bike? Jokes aside, I admire these "do-ers". To develop a product and put them out where they are meant to be is not a small feat especially for young/inexperienced guys. Hipster or not, they did what they've set out to do. It's a huge contrast to those I know around me.

Try walking into the station with a folded(not covered) scooter. They will stop you. However when you wrap it up in a bag, it's ok to pass. I've known people who have tried this.

This design is quite appropriate in Taipei. Ok hear me out first. In Taiwan, you can carry scooters/bicycles onto the subway only if you put them in a bag. So say if I have a razor scooter(very compact when collapsed), I cannot take it onto the subway if I don't wrap it with a bag. However, you can carry a suitcase…

Well, he could have sun burn + tire burn.

I'd rather GT went to Tamiya to bring their 4WD track/slot cars to the game than to even think about Mitsubishi.

Living in the suburb of Taipei, we still have these scattered around in the hills, but many of these are indeed abandoned, and it(death) being a taboo in Chinese culture means it affects the property values of surrounding areas. In the past where the country was all farmland, people want to be buried on their own…

It's "maintained" only once a year, on 5th April where every decedent of the family will visit and clean up the grave. It's a major event in the Chinese culture.
