More fun experiments for today’s Top 200 Photo

In prior photos I used the flash in strobe mode to trace movement. But flash is also useful for freezing movement. This photo is from a series of experiments in freezing water droplets.

My latest Photojojo time capsule was released.  It’s a bunch of random photos mostly from around the 4th of July.

I started off this quarter ending my random listening. I wanted to listen to certain artists I really enjoyed. I figured I could go back to random once I got bored of choosing the artists I was listening to. Additionally, in between picking certain artists if I wanted to hear a certain song, I started going through my library alphabetically by artist. Let’s see how these trends panned out over the quarter.

Another physics experiment for today’s Top 200 Photo

Another attempt at the physics stroboscopic shots. This time the pen fell too quickly so a lot of the images are in the bounce at the bottom.

Computer graveyard in today’s Top 200 Photos

These are some old computer parts I had lying around. They were broken and I think I was saving them as teaching tools. I think I threw them out before we moved. It’s a graphics card, sound card, and hard drive.

Let them eat cake in today’s Top 200 Photo

Dina is a cake-decorating prodigy. This cake does not do any justice to her abilities, but she had to bring it all the way from NYC so anything too 3D was out of the question. Still the attention to detail here is pretty awesome.

Mathematical constructs in today’s Top 200 Photo.

photo #93 is:

I think my flickr description is adequate:

Skipping the first number in the Fibonacci series (which is 0), each picture is displayed as many times as the Fibonacci number at that point. So the first picture is displayed 1 time and the 13th picture is displayed 233 times.

I created this using a Perl script and my photos.

Once again we arrive at the USA’s Capital for today’s Top 200 Photo.

I spoke about the Cherry Blossom Festival early in this project (/2011/02/09/top-200-photos-195/). This is a panorama I constructed of about a quarter of the tidal basin that gives a good idea of what the cherry blossoms look like.

Tampa for today’s Top 200 Photo.

Just a lazy day at my parents’ house with my little brother hanging around.

Once again a trip to Cornell during the winter for today’s Top 200 Photo.

photo #96 is:

This photo was taken during my freshman year with my brand new digital camera. That was actually a very mild winter. So mild, in fact, that my cross country skiing class became a hiking class. It did NOT prepare me for the rest of my time at Cornell. This dorm, where I stayed my freshman year, was brand new that year. It actually had air conditioning!
