Our little town has a raptor bird sanctuary here and we took company to see some of the birds that are here as there is something wrong with them and can't make it on their own.
Then we went over to another museum, wasn't a lot there, between exhibits but took a few shots of a lens out of a nearby lighthouse that's over 100 years old.
A really rainy crappy day the other day and then a small opening occurred. Known here as "sucker holes", they tend to close up just as fast as they form. Anyway the sun was just in the right spot to cast a double rainbow over town..
The new Pixel 3 shipped with a new version of the camera software that (in addition to other improvements) has a mode called Night Sight. While they already use good optics and a larger Sony CCD image sensor than other phone cameras, a lot of the "magic" is happening in software, using artificial intelligence. They have just released an updated camera app for the Pixel and Pixel 2 cameras with this new feature enabled--it makes a huge difference in photos taken in low light, without flash.
Here is the view out my back door, right at this moment, 12:54am:
Enable Night Sight, and it makes a vast improvement:
This is a very extreme example, as it catches enough ambient light from the street lights in our neighborhood to make it appear like we still have daylight. In more normal photos that are dark, it really helps with the detail in the shadows.
I wish they could use this software in DSLRs, mirrorless, and other "real" digital cameras...
