Info on ‘Filming the Moon’ (of the 3rd July 2009 using an 8 inch SCT and a Nikon D90 digital camera)……. For some reason, this video seems to get watched a lot. Please note that this was purely a test of shooting video using the video mode of the camera. I consider this test to have been a complete failure as the quality was poor and I have never shot straight video through the telescope since making this video. I rarely use a telescope for astrophotography either. See this video, shot using still images with just the camera and no telescope: www.youtube.com

I see more and more magazine articles and blog posts where disillusioned photographers advise aspiring young passionate artists not to enter this career. A few weeks ago, for example, I picked up a popular photography magazine and was left depressed because just about every article talked about photography being a dying profession and the inadequacy of it to pay bills.

Please read the Description Box/Info Box. .: Info about this Video :. Game Title: Project DIVA Dreamy Theater 2nd Platform: PlayStation 3 Developer: Sega Publisher: Sega Genre(s): Rhythm game Mode(s): Single-player Project DIVA is a rhythm game created by Sega and Crypton Future Media for the PlayStation Portable featuring the virtual-diva vocaloid Hatsune Miku. The gameplay is based on pressing buttons on the controller when floating gray button icons appear on top of the colored button icons. Project DIVA Dreamy Theater 2nd is an add-on of the sequel, Project Diva 2nd and now supported stereoscopic 3D display. Hatsune Miku (????) is a singing synthesizer application with a female persona, developed by Crypton Future Media. It uses Yamaha Corporation’s Vocaloid 2 synthesizing technology. The name of the character comes from a fusion of the Japanese for first (? hatsu), sound (? ne) and future (Miku (??) sounds like a nanori reading of future, ??, normally read as “mirai”), referring to her position as the first of Crypton’s “Character Vocal Series”. She was the second Vocaloid to be sold using the Vocaloid 2 engine and the first Japanese Vocaloid to use the Japanese version of the Vocaloid 2 engine. Her voice is sampled from Japanese voice actress, Saki Fujita. Hatsune Miku has performed onstage as a projection.

Chances are, you’d notice all of the vacant lots in your city if massive LEGO structures were used to call attention to the wasted space. ‘Habit Makes Us Blind’ is a concept by Spanish studio Espai MGR, digitally filling in unused areas of Valencia with colorful fantasy buildings suggesting how the space could be used.
As years go by, vacant lots – often walled off with ugly temporary fences that are soon covered in spray-painted tags – can almost become invisible to those who pass them on a regular basis.
With urban populations continuing to grow, space is at a premium. While the LEGO structures by Espai MGR aren’t practical in a real-world sense, they do illustrate just how much vertical space is still available, leading one to wonder what it could potentially become.
“This photographic work aims at calling people’s attention, just like painting those isolated walls yellow would. It demands the recreational use of those vacant lots through the eyes of a child, by filling them with impossible constructions, surrealistic installations in line with the problem. A children’s game as a neighbour’s shout, demanding the right to take part in their city.”
LEGO artist Jamie Spencer created over 90 historical figures, from Charlemagne to Elvis, using only official LEGO parts.
