In our town there are ping-pong tables for anyone to use. We play sometimes I kinda like it :D. But yah, so cool they should do more of these in public spaces.
Awesome sunset. I am impressed how the Pixel 4a can capture the real colors. Phone that @Aaron gifted me :D. Even brand new it was 3 times cheaper than most high end phones when it was released.
I took this photo in very low light hand-holding my Pixel 4a. We were lucky to see these goats that late at the castle.
Wow amazing. Unheard of. So cool. Yah dudes, it is happening, just wait for it.
Historic, unprecedented, unreal. Un-beli-vable.
Not enhanced. Straight out of Pixel 4A. And that's how the sky looked like in reality.
I have updated my Photo gallery on my website tiotrom.com/photos/ if anyone is curious. These are the best photos I have taken so far.
For example this is not a fire, or exaggerated. It is how the clouds looked one day:
Take the telescope phone mount and attach it to the binoculars, and then you can take some cool shots with your phone :). Mind you these are tiny binoculars that we got from someone, not some pro-ones.
Here's a photo that's quite nice on its own:
Now point your binocular setup here:
And you get this:
Cool :)
Saturn through my Celestron 130 SLT and Pixel 4a:
Not good conditions and Saturn is so difficult to photograph. This is straight out of the phone.
I will get better at this :D
Here's a photo of Jupiter through my Pixel 4a and Celestron SLT 130 telescope. I can do better probably and this is with no enhancing, straight out of the phone:
Just a start... :D - I will try to do better. But you can still see some color and the stripes.
I tried to enhance it here a bit:
And here you can see 2 moons:
The Sun through my telescope (Celestron 130 SLT) and Pixel 4a:
Taken an hour ago. Awesome sunspots. How cool to be able to see the sun so up-close.
Dang yeah I am unsure why this happens only on iPhones. It is reported here github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube… - Maybe something to do with iPhones plus Firefox? Works perfectly fine on Android 13 and Firefox on my end....
I will have to investigate more but since I do not own an iPhone it makes it very difficult.
Until then as @Rokosun said you can watch it directly via Peertube videos.trom.tf/w/p/fVpfZ9VfWrW…

Oh wait, are people still eating 3 meals a day? I've only eaten 2 meals a day for the past....idk....2 decades? :D - and everyone I know probably.... I think 3 meals a day is too much. In fact there is a positive outcome to eating less. You age slower ;).
Anyway, yeah people are being poorer it seems. Prices are rising. Thank God for the mighty Economy and the fantasy money we worship :)
Israel does not kill innocent people or genocide anyone in Gaza. And Hamas killed no civilians in Israel's attack and cares about democracy.
Get over it people! Listen to the leaders of these tribes! They are unbiased and honest.
Sorry I am being silly but this is a truly funny shadow that I saw tonight:
Every night. Same place. Stay silly! :)
This is a photo I took tonight (unedited, straight out of the Pixel 4A):
I have made a lot more such photos for the past few days and learned how to make longer timelapses. I will make an article about it all soonish :).
I so love it. To reveal the universe. To do it yourself. There, where you are staying :). I love the night sky simply because there is no sky anymore, it suddenly is the outside world. A world we cannot ever experience more than being touched by a few photos reaching our eyes and devices. Beautiful and hard to believe this is all real. At times I feel like I am going crazy....
Most people live their day to day lives having no clue that these things are real...
Here's one more:
Only a little bit edited - colors and such.
We went out again with the telescope and we saw Saturn, Jupiter, and parts of the Milky Way. Here are some photos - astonishing that they are made with a phone (Pixel 4A 4G).
Me and Sasha:
Edited a little bit the colors, light, and details. But not that much, a few minutes editing.
An "arm" of the Milky Way:
Improved a bit the colors and contrast. Not by much.
Our TROM telescope (no editing):
And the coolest of them all, Georgi with a head-lamp :)
No editing, straight out of the phone, believe it or not.
Am impressed. So fucking cool: great experience to enjoy the night sky with our own eyes and a telescope, and low effort great photos :).
