I knew it sounded familiar :D But that's OK, 4 1/2 years is a long time.

BTW, here is a list of past competitions. Not updated for a while.

Oh no! I'm a copycat! My bad. Don't tell others. They might not remember.

Ha, thanks for the good fit.
The technician splicing my FTTH has just left the house and i did photos of the process :D

Here is the fiber end coming from a dslam outside the house. Merrily reflecting the automated splicers guide light while waiting to get spliced to my wall plug connectors end.

Taken with Pro¹, sfos Advanced Camera, contrast adjusted and cropped in darktable.

Always wonderful to read something I don't understand at all. And it is nice to leave it that way too. Mysteries of the world.

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"
 

Cool!

Wish I could have seen that done when Ma Bell installed my fiber, but if it's been welded somewhere, it's a long, long way away. The fiber certainly comes on a long spool, I see "10844 FEET" marked on the jacket on the inside of my house (my brain says that's > 3300m ish). Of course I don't know what the index was where they started, but they seem equipped for some long pulls.

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"
 

Yes, that was the best topic ever... And i think my very, very, very, very best shot ever with N9 ... - But now it is new year and different old phone...

So, this one is taken with Jolla1 and cropping and 90 degree change with Gimp.

I just took a picture of my car, of course, and it reflecting something like this ...

took me a whole working day to relocate this 3 ODFs and connect everything to the 4th one which then connects with BBU. It was total mess with wrong markings. Doing one cable by colors is OK, guessing what someone else did is not.

Here is my entry, a reflection of a image of the Earth in my home made hologram viewer:

It was fun taking these photos, but difficult trying to focus :)

I have seen a phone which showes movies 3D without any glasses on. It was like magic. Korona messed the production and publishing time frame.

Taken with a Jolla 1 around 14:50 today, 22 November 2020.

Been out for a walk with the family and came across this flooded footpath. The causeway behind the fence on the right is a railway line.

A forest walk on a sunny late autumn day after it rained. Lucky me, lots of reflections!

not exactly how I wanted it to look but got some new plants so postponed my plan of changing substrate for the dark one until I grow them a bit.

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"
 

After 1,5h nap, I vote number 5, nonsuch. So good.


Edit: Did not sleep last night but watched alone the whole "Black Queen" serie from Netflix.

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"
 

Oh no, I'm too late to submit a picture!

So since I can't vote for myself the vote goes to 1. mosen, the fiberoptic voodoo is very eyecatching :).

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"

Re: Phone Camera Competition November 2020: "Reflection(s)"
