Kidlapse is now live. This is a service I've been working on that uses machine learning to recognize faces and then rotate and zoom you so get pretty good alignment between each photo. You upload one photo per month and Kidlapse then creates a timelapse movie of your child growing up. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in sign up and give it a try.
The transit of Mercury on November 11, 2019 shot from San Francisco, CA with a Sony RX10 IV with an ND5.0 filter (and a better filter adapter than this one).
Autumn starts now north of the Equator, Spring to the south. Rendered in Catfood Earth.

SFO has just banned bottled water. Why not Coke?

Rebuttal of an op-ed in the NYT on the simulation hypothesis.
More on simulation. Have we proved this isn't true? No. Also - what does analyzing the physics of Conway's Game of Life tell us?
New project: generate a timelapse of a kid growing up from a set of any photos (uses machine learning to spot and align faces). Check it out at kidlapse.com.
