Football in the snow, #3


Image by Ed Yourdon
In case you’re wondering: yes, these guys really were playing football out here in the middle of deep snow, on the Great Lawn, with flurries of cold snow coming down all around them.

Note: this photo was published in an undated (Jan 3, 2011) Everyblock NYC zipcodes blog titled "10024." It was also published in a Jan 26, 2011 blog titled "Choosing a Compact Digital Camera – What's the Best Brand?"

***********************

This is an artificially created single-image HDR photo, created simply by invoking the PhotoMatix program on the original RAW image. The results are a little less impressive than if I had gone through the more tedious process of creating three separate RAW copies of the original image, and bumping the exposure of one of the copies up by one f-stop, and one of the other copies down by one f-stop. But it’s close enough, and I was feeling lazy…

***************************************
A year from now, nobody will remember (or care about) the details — but if you happened to live anywhere on the East Coast of the U.S. when these pictures were taken, then you surely know that we’ve just been hit by the first major snowstorm of the 2010-2011 winter season. Of course, upstate New York and the Midwest have already been hit by multiple storms, and they’ve gotten far larger accumulations of snow than we’ll probably end up with … but since a few of the nation’s major TV headquarters and newspapers are based in New York, we tend to get a disproportionate amount of attention when we’re hit with a major storm.

When I took the first few pictures in this set, it was too early to tell whether it really would be a major storm. But it snowed all night, and throughout the evening, we heard that some 1,400 flights in and out of New York’s three airports had been canceled, and that the Amtrak/Acela train service from New York to Boston had been suspended. And when we got up the next morning and found that the airports were still closed, and that 13 inches of white stuff had fallen in Central Park, we decided that it really was a significant storm.

At lunch-time on the day after the storm, I ventured out towards Central Park, with my Olympus E-P2 "micro four-thirds" camera and my Canon G-12 compact digital camera; with the blustery wind blowing snow flurries in all directions, I wasn’t willing to risk getting my Nikon D700 wet. I used a combination of slow-running subways and buses to get to the 86th Street entrance to Central Park, and then walked over to the Great Lawn, where I was fairly confident I would see people doing all kinds of interesting things — including a very energetic game of football! — on the large, snow-filled lawn.

And indeed, I saw not only the football players, but also people with skis and snow-shoes and sleds, as well as people jogging(!), walking their dogs, building snowmen, and just enjoying themselves as they walked through the winter wonderland.

The most amazing part of the day was the sight of quasi-snow-flurries kicked up by the gusting wind. If I didn’t know any better, I might well have thought I was at the North Pole; but the skyline view of skyscrapers and apartment towers all around was a constant reminder that I was still in New York.

Other parts of Central Park were probably equally photogenic, and equally filled with people taking advantage of the fresh snow … but after a couple of hours of wandering around and taking a few hundred photos, my feet were too numb to continue. If I have enough energy, maybe I’ll venture back out to the park during the next couple days; if not, you’ll just have to make do with these photos that I’ve uploaded.

I’m looking to buy a new digital camera but what brand is best?

Answer by jenn
nikon may be better quality than cannon but cannon is usually more affordable

Answer by nan
Without a doubt…Canon! Research online the various models and choose one suitable to your experience, etc.

Answer by tiberiustibz
It depends what kind of camera you want. In the SLR department the Nikon cameras are very nice, but their compacts are terrible. The Canon compacts are very nice though.

Answer by klbythebay@sbcglobal.net
Having recently purchased a new Canon S-5-IS I took a course offered by the selling store where the instructor explained most of the features and how to operate them. Mine is not an SLR but is the top of the linejust below SLR’s. She is familiar with all brands and said the most popular brands are NIKON and CANON. In the SLR level there does not seem to be much difference in quality even if the NIKON might be a bit pricier. Sony is good also but top sellers are these 2——if you are only faintly interested or have only a few times use in mind there are low pixel versions for sale for under $ 20 but the quality of the photos is not very good—-most cell phone cameras are like this for resolution as are web cams for a computer.

My brother bought the same model I have 2 years ago—his is 6 Mega-pixel resolution, one year later I got mine—same model but mine is 8 Mega-pixel resolution——the one they sell today is yep you guessed it !———–10 Mega-pixel. I ‘m not sure but I think that the maximum one can get today is 16 Mega-pixel (I guess that if you wanted to make a poster of your face that was ten to one hundred times enlarged this would give you a fairly clear image ?) Such high resolution is not necessary for casual photgraphy—I an still using my 3.2 Mega pixel camera and it produces satisfactory snap shots.

GoodDigitalCameras.com Ask a dozen photographers what the best camera is, and your likely to get a dozen answers. Ask those same photographers, what the best brand is, and your likely to start a brawl. It seems to be a controversial question amongst the camera crowd, but if you take a look at a few simple statistics, the answer becomes a little clearer. http As I peruse my favorite best selling cameras list for today, this is what I see: 1. Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 2. Flip Video MinoHD Camcorder 3. Canon PowerShot SD880IS 4. Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder 5. Canon PowerShot A590IS 6. Canon PowerShot SD890IS 7. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28K 8. Flip Ultra Series Camcorder 9. Canon PowerShot SD770IS 10. Canon Digital Rebel XSi There is definitely a bit of a trend here. Six out of the top ten selling digital cameras are manufactured by Canon. Where’s Nikon? Where’s Sony? Where’s Fuji? Where’s Olympus? Oh, they do make sales . . . obviously. They just don’t seem to do as well as Canon. A study recently showed, that about half of the cameras on different “Top Digital Camera” lists were made by Canon. The other 50% were usually a mix of Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Olympus, Pentax, and other assorted brands. Top sales, and top critical acclaim, seem to be part of Canons rather cunning modus operandi.
