Amazon.com (USA) is quietly deleting all customer contributed product photos from its website. The deletion is scheduled to be complete by Aug. 31. If you browse the site you'll notice the option to upload customer images is gone from most of the pages. (Meanwhile, Amazon has announced that...

Hi all,:) I saw this post 10 Photos That Definitively Prove Math Is Really, Really Hard days ago and found it so extremely amusing so I want to share it here and I hope you'll find this hilarious as well!;)

I've resized my pics down to 640x428 to try and make this thread as easy to load as possible! My sincere apologies if there are too many photographs in the thread. I just thought it would be easier than spreading them out over several posts. I first developed a fascination with abandoned places...

This is the story of 2 bees entering my appartment today. One flew away while the other had to fight against my girlfriend who eventually hurted it. It felt down at the bottom of our window, not the best spot. Right over a spider net. After a few seconds a spider poped up, wrapped its prey with...

These effects create a stunning new look at fireworks. Enjoy. http://news.yahoo.com/photos/things-that-boom-in-the-night-sky-slideshow/fireworks-photo-1346344009.html?_esi=1#crsl=%252Fphotos%252Fthings-that-boom-in-the-night-sky-slideshow%252Ffireworks-photo-1346344009.html

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/9269298/Women-really-do-have-a-gaydar.html My question: what photos were shown, and do they demonstrate a confirmation bias in selecting only masculine looking women as the lesbian examples? A couple weeks ago I was going through my pictures...

Hi, I'm Jay and I'm new to Physics Forums. I'm an undergraduate student studying physics and computer science. I was wondering what your thoughts were regarding the following photos I took on Google Earth. Edit reason: Maximum number of photos. Thanks very much. My personal opinion is...

Is this something to be worried about? I know it can be a sign of cancer in children but its very uncommon even above the age of 1. I have always had bad vision in the white-reflecting eye (I think this might be amblyopia?). After searching around the internet I found a few other people with the...

Feedback loops can be very cheap and can be modified easily by things to produce some interesting photos. I used the attached setup to capture these images over 12 years ago and they are accurate to what you actually see on the screen within the maxed out limits of the hardware/software...

I do not know anything about physics but in order to sort my problem out I have been told to look into the impossibility of photon collisions. What I would like to achieve is to take two Class 1 lasers (any wave length you like) and cross the two, in doing so I was hoping that their infinite...

We Demand Photos! It's may be too late, but: June 7 there was a *massive* solar eruption: http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/business-tech/science/110609/solar-flare-sun-earth-severe-weather-forecast-video...

The Zuiderzee was a shallow bay in The Netherlands, which became a the IJsselmeer (lake IJssel) in 1932 with the closure of the Afsluitdijk. That had a huge impact on the local culture. It ended the frequent flooding with storms but it also obstructed world wide mechandize shipping and fishing...

"Funny" Physics Photos? I'm looking for some "funny" physics photos- not simple "unbalanced" logistics photos though. Yes, I have done many google searches on the topic using terms like "funny physics, logistics etc", but I still cannot find many good ones. I'm hoping that those on this site...

Being a pig that I am, can't help but notice that we don't have a food thread Feel free to share your dinner/lunch/breakfast :) Oreo Cream Cheeze Cake (one of my late night dinner from a few months back :!)) It was as delicious as it looks!

"Dec. 13, 2010: On August 1, 2010, an entire hemisphere of the sun erupted. Filaments of magnetism snapped and exploded, shock waves raced across the stellar surface, billion-ton clouds of hot gas billowed into space. Astronomers knew they had witnessed something big. It was so big, it may...

Hey guys. I want to turn the pixel of my photos by adobe photoshop. I wan it to be 600pixel by 600 pixel. Please note that I don't want to stretch the photo (by uncheking constrain propotion) so please provide me the step by step to make photo 600*600 pixel (it can be cropping but not to...

I was looking at this photo and it got me wondering. There's a person in the photo, who is apparently not moving so the effect can't be created due to motion, who is partially transparent. The wall and another person is seen through the persons face, but not through the entire face. Just a part...

Is there some rumour about experimental measurements of decays into two photos that I have missed?

Have you guys seen this: http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/08/russia_in_color_a_century_ago.html Very cool. Also: http://blogs.denverpost.com/captured/2010/07/26/captured-america-in-color-from-1939-1943/2363/ If it hasn't been posted yet. Anyone else know of any really cool...

I finally got a decent color camera for my lab, and would like to share some images here. I can't find any forum guidelines for the images- specifically, what's the allowed filesize?

I haven't found a thread with this topic so I thought I'd start one. i'll start by posting these photos. Hopefully they are scientific enough. :biggrin: http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/2563/bloodshoeprintresized.jpg Blood Shoeprint...

Hey guys! When I was on a trip in Cambridge I took a picture of the famous apple tree, that is supposed (so the turist office claims:-p) to be the one, where Isaac Newton got the idea for his most importaint work. In the back there are two windows and one of them (I think it's the right one)...

Ive noticed every time i see a picture of the ISS or astronauts working in outer space there is NEVER any visible stars? Why is this? i been told that they filter it somehow since they stars would be so bright, or is there another reason this has been on my mind for a long time

isn't that different intensity of black and white in an old B&W photo correspond to a particular color range of the source. Which can then be converted into its original color?

Hey y'all-- Many/most of you may already be aware of and have seen these, but worth checking out are the new photos from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter... particularly of the Apollo landing sites. Amazing detail and really beautiful photos. You can make out details of left behind equipment...

Comet C/2008 O2 McNaught photos?? Hey guys, I was wondering why there aren't any photos of this comet around. It's quite bright (7.2 mag) and its position is very favorable towards the observers on the northern hemisphere- near the pole, actually... Usually, there would be some galleries on...

I'm working on my photography, and I've recently discovered that I have a tendency to drastically over-process my photos. Post-processing is essential for virtually all forms of photography, but I seem to approach photos the way hammers approach nails. Which of the following do you prefer...

I am currently digitizing sixty years of family photo slides [I should say over thirty years worth going back over sixty years]. What a treat! My parents really have no idea what is going on. I plan to give them digitized copies in a digital photo frame with all sixty years included! What I'm...

Making photos under the water with common camera. Is this possible. Or this need different optics.

I have seen several photos of the our milky way galaxy, other galaxies and some photos of even 100's of galaxies in the same picture. How do they do it? Usually if you see in the sky, all you see is the stars. (naked eyes) I believe to be able to see actual of our milky way galaxy we need to...

I used one of the photos from this link in the caption competition, and there is no doubt about it: This website is all about cute. http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/

Photos of LHC - fantastic! i don't know if someone has already posted a link to these photos, but if you haven't seen them, check them out - totally incredible. man, i wish i worked there... http://www.boston.com/... .../2008/08/the_large_hadron_collider.html

Just thought this could be a cool little thread. When reading over Physics or Maths theories, often getting bogged down in the literature, I love putting a face to the ideas and theories which were often hard to swallow for many of the scientific community at the time. Seeing a picture of the...

It's been done already, it makes you wonder how widespread it is. Just posting a photo out of context can completely change the reality of a situation, it doesn't even need to be "doctored". http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/20071126/sc_livescience/fakephotosalterrealmemories

Okay look guys I am not posting this because I am a conspiracy theorist, in actuality I am trying to disprove someones insistence on a conspiracy theory regarding the lack of stars in photographs and video taken from space... I know there has to be some logical reason for this phenomenon, and it...

Hi all, I was hoping for a little advice and some insight on these pictures I took. Here is the first (orig_small1.jpg): And the Second after I realized and waited for a break in the traffic (orig_small2.jpg): I was on the Skyway Bridge in the passenger seat driving from St. Pete...

Can anyone please tell me how to change a photo i have on my computer to a format that will upload to photobucket/forums, it needs to be a jpeg or gif? It is not a digital photo.

I lost some photos on my HP camera using a SAN disk memory card. I think I reformatted the card accidentally, but the result, anyway is some of my photos are gone. Is it possible to get them back?

I have a decent question, I think, about the Hubble photos and the universe. When the Hubble took the photos that show stars cluttered together, and that it is supposedly the first few hundred thousand years of the universes life, that got me thinking. If you pointed the Hubble in any given...

I think it might have the roots "auto" or "photo" in it. Thanks.
