Surprising result from my pocket2 - crescent moon setting behind some tall buildings

Seems quite a minimalistic picture due to all the darkness and the minimal highlights.

Nice, and no or little noise.

Another day or two until the New Moon?  I guess that hunk of space junk will have impacted the dark side by now.

Very cool capture Droffarc.  

Hello there Droffarc. Good day and thank you for posting this wonderful photo that you have captured. Great work and thank you for your support. .

Must admit to de-noising

Hmm, no moon tonight - fogbank coming in.
Pretty soon we may need a "New" moon

Just David is fine,   the queen hasn't honoured me like that yet.

Sorry, missing comma   ,

'sfunny, all my (male) teachers were were sirs - Queen must have deemed them honourable, though I did not (Teacher leave those kids alone!)

Thanks Downtown

You're most welcome Droffarc.  

Are you still in the "Goldilocks Season" there in SA?

But teachers are just Sirs, not Sir David or Sir James.

Never had time for any of them (except my Biology teacher and she was NOT a sir) and I was married to an art teacher. All they want is an anSIR to a question that is totally irrelivant like "where is your homework?" -"Duuno, got lost somewhere between a Higgs Boson and the Pleiades, probably on the event horison - or maybe SIRius ate it."

Nice shot (considering it is taken with the P2)

My teachers used to get mad if you asked "Why?"

I'm just getting used to the P2 and must admit that it keeps surprising me - the more I use it the more I like it - not sorry I bought it

Same here.
It is much better than I anticipated.

I dont know about your schooling system but with ours they had a specific curiculum and as long as they achived that they were ok. If you had a mind that was like a tape recorder and could recite the text book you did well. If you had an enquiring mind you were mud.
But I think it was so for Einstein also, his teacher indicated that he would never amount to anything much.
It is all about control, you are programmed to fit in with society so that they can control your behavior - like in - the new mini3 is a must have. If you dont own a "x" you dont count.
In Japan they have a saying "A nail that sticks out must be hammered down"

Or in those famous words   -  "You must comply! Resistance is futile!"

It was the same here,   many years after leaving college I became friends with one of the lecturers (he didnt actually teach me but was there at the time).  He explained very well that most of them were trained to teach and not trained in the subject.   

I have a mind where I need to understand why before something really sticks.   I got thrown out a few times during school.

Indeed! and today - no wind so the min2 of mine flew and got some footage in this very place  

But you will have to wait in line for the posting - (have to get permission from all the seagulls)!

My mind is the same - I might use an android but I aint one...
