Trafalgar Square Fountain and Skeleton

Last month I was in London for work, and had a weekend to walk and shoot (photos silly – it is England after all …). I walked out to the National Portrait Gallery and Trafalgar Square and grabbed a bunch of images, including this one of one of the fountains in the square and a sculpture of a horse skeleton on the fourth plinth.

From this angle it looks like the horse is a dinosaur about to drink from the fountain which made me chuckle a bit. Yabba Dabba Do!

This is an example of taking three fairly horrible images and using AuroraHDR and On1 Photo to clean them up into something fairly nice and usable. I’ve also added this image to the London page of my gallery. Please feel free to comment/critique at will 🙂

Trafalgar Square Fountain-20160124-john-p-hoke — The fountain and non-dinosaur in Trafalgar Square, London. The Non-Dinosaur is actually a horse skeleton – although it still looks like Dino to me – Yabba Dabba Do!

Spent the morning yesterday walking around SoHo and the East Village grabbing food, photos and flashbacks.

At least the Astor Place Cube is still there, and kids still spin it `round (like a record baby).

I needed a stand for my MacBook Pro to keep it out of the way when using it with my dual monitor setup

Sketched it up in Fusion 360 and printed in carbon fiber PLA on the BambuLab X1C

The STL is available on Printables and also making them for people who can’t print themselves DM for price and info

More fun with the Mavic 3 Pro and @steelstacks_pa. It`s been a while since I actively flew drones and getting out (almost) every day to relearn the muscle memory to manually fly and shoot video at the same time. Yes - I know you can automate the flying but if you cant do it manually when things go wrong it can turn out REALLY badly.

I edited the video for online viewing in Adobe Premier Rush. I will probably end up moving back to Premier Pro unless someone has a better suggestion for editing and manipulating the video streams in post.

MacBook Pro Stand

Scratching an itch (but not the MacBook Pro) I love my MacBook Pro, and with the M2 Max chip using multiple monitors is a godsend. The problem is that with two huge monitors on my desk, having space for the laptop is a challenge. Luckily I have a couple Bambu...
