Sunday 27th 61F, heavy overcast. There was precious little sun yesterday. The same seems to be true today.I shall be holding a [private] party [of one] to celebrate a single moment of Waoo Internet actually meeting its "Guaranteed Speed" today. [It can't last!] The average performance is not so much "Wow" as "Whoah!"
Is there somebody with a red flag walking [slowly] in front of Waoo's "rusting iron horse?" 10.00am Waoo "Guaranteed" 200Mbps already down to mid 80s. Only 79Mbps in the evening.
A walk to the lanes in warm, humid conditions under a grey sky. A bird of prey was circling over the prairie before settling on top of a tree. I snapped away, using different settings, but it was very distant. 250m or 275 yards according to Google Earth. I was using the 100-400mm at 300mm on my Lumix G9. 600mm equivalent in full frame. I had probably engaged the in-camera, 1.6x Teleconverter. So 480mm = 960mm FF. [Handheld!] I used heavy cropping to enlarge the bird's image. Fortunately the bird was stationary as it landed. 1/640 at f/11, ISO800.
The-de-France has been spoilt by yet another attention-seeking fuckwit. When are they going to sue these attention seeking fuckwits for damages when they cause a crash? They are obviously not spectators. The deluded fuckwits seem to imagine themselves as active participants! Fuckwits!
