DC VARIO-SUMMICRON 7-21MM F/2.0-2.5 ASPH @ ISO 100 - (1/600) at f/8.9

By February 2003, I was beginning to understand digital capture, and selected the highest quality JPG on the PDR-M70, which compressed the file 10:1. It made the file 1MB, and since I only had 16MB available on the card I had to be careful what I shot. Now, 128MB is available. Captured at 3.3MB.

Taken from Minack Theatre Porthcurno, near Lands End in Cornwall. Toshiba Camera PDRM-70, scanned to CD at Boots. The sea here is like the Caribbean (except its bloody cold.)

I redid one of my favorite pictures using the Technicolor profile. The yellow corridor became flamingo pink.

The Actual Rosetta Stone

This is the Rosetta Stone which was translated by Champollion in Paris in 1822. It is in three languages. This was the key to unlocking the meaning of hieroglyphs. Written in 196 BC, the bottom part is in ancient Greek, which was understood, the top Egyptian hieroglyph (unknown) the middle in demotic script. It was rediscovered by the French in 1799, and as they were defeated by the Brits in 1801, it was brought back to London. It weighs 1700 lbs. That's me in the middle of the picture.

Top Ranking pushes off

When I shot this in 2002, I couldn't save images at HQ because the MM card was so small (8MB I think), so it was compressed more than I like today. It looks okay small. It was a good capture, anyway. In 2001 this was a state of the art camera at 3.3 MP.

Just a grab shot as he came into the scene. The DV Vario-Summicron on this little 3.3 MP camera produces warm tones from the CMYG filter on the sensor. Some pp to reduce noise in the shadows. On these old cameras hardly any noise reduction was applied at source.
