Over 50 and still diving? (Go on, admit it....)
Over 50 and still diving? (Go on, admit it....)
TimG · October 31, 2025Oct 31

On a recent dive trip I met someone who is writing a dissertation on people who are 50+ and diving. If you are interested in contributing, the following is a link to a simple questionnaire which takes about 5 minutes to complete. I've become paranoid about online scams, phishing etc. But this looks fine and I know the author - and the information gathered is pretty innocuous. https://forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=e3VPRDDLUkaTvMqNbR74E5Cna1DJ6d1KvM2oRz5_gAdUM0Y3UEpYTkZERDJON

TimG · 8 hours ago8 hr

I’m a coffee devotee - some would say a coffee snob. Some years back I bought a pretty expensive espresso maker and grinder which I use several times a day. After lots of practice and tweaks, I can pull a pretty decent espresso 95% of the time. But….. if I am away for a few days, the next time I make coffee, it’s not, well, it’s not the best. I swear the machine sulks. I talk to it, frankly, plead with it - and batch 2 is usually back to full form. What has this to do with underwater photograph

It’s your own public page — same idea as Linktree. One link with your name on it: cover photo, buttons, email, phone, and a photo gallery on the back. The address is waterpixels.net/u/your-name A web presence without building a website. If people use it, we may grow it later. Slap a QR on a water bottle. Save it to your Home Screen like an app and send the link from your phone — tap to share, AirDrop, text, whatever you already do. Your profile’s Link Card tab shows visits and which buttons

LOFIC: the 17 stops claimed by the Osmo Pocket 4P and the future of sensors
LOFIC: the 17 stops claimed by the Osmo Pocket 4P and the future of sensors

Davide DB · August 22Aug 22

There has been discussion recently about the new DJI Osmo Pocket 4P. DJI claims up to 17 stops of dynamic range on its new 1-inch sensor, and comparisons with cinema cameras like the ARRI Alexa quickly surfaced online. Looking at the numbers, it might seem plausible, but visually the situation is different. Waveform plot for the DJI OSMO Pocket 4P 20mm wide D-Log2 ISO1600. Image credit: CineD Spoiler: no, it is not a micro Alexa. PetaPixel confirmed after testing it that LOFIC improves both

Shooting a Snoot

TimG · October 30, 20232 yr

Shooting a Snoot Underwater photography is an absorbing form of photography. For some, it’s a technical issue of capturing fish portraits. For others an art form about capturing the beauty and mystery of the underwater world. Whichever you aim for, it presents unique challenges. Everything moves: you, the water, and the subject. Photography is all about capturing and controlling light. In the underwater world lighting and highlighting the subject is often impacted by either a
