Photography side...

-
It's been a few months, and now my daughter is about 1 and we've moved to Tylorstown since my last post to! Moving here has given me an excuse to start taking photos again, and my next thing to do on the list is get back into my Ham Radio hobby to!!
Anyway I thought I'd share a few photos that I've taken with my new smartphone, the Huawei Honor 8x. The photos so far that I've taken are all of the scenery around near to where I now live. I hope anyone who reads this enjoys my photos.

My Linux side of things, I've setup a Plex Media Server running Ubuntu Mate 18.04LTS, and have it streaming movies, TV shows and music around the home and on the families mobile devices using 4G while we're out and about, next is to get a Freeview antenna installed and add the 3 WinTV DuoHD receivers I've acquired, so we can then stream live TV also!!

Well, Christmas is almost upon us and my partner Michelle and I were on our way to see her Mom and Stepdad with our almost 1 year old daughter when I spotted a view that just, well screamed photo opportunity, so armed with my Honour 8x after a number of weeks of getting used to the camera, I took 3 shots and was amazed with what cane out! So here's the 3 photos, I just hope they live up to even just ok photos! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A few nights ago, I decided to take a couple of photos at night with the moon out to put this Honor 8x smartphone dual camera to the test, what cane out surprised me! The first photo is one taken with around 10 second shutter delay to allow light in, and the second was with AI mode, both are quite good... Here's the results!! I'm planning on experimenting more with manual mode in dusk and dawn to, to get both sunset and sunrise... Dave

The Moon through Tree

Ah, couldn't resist this shot, from the backdoor, not sure if it'll look any good on a bigger screen, but it was the moon peeking through the tree in the back garden with the moonlight hitting the clouds....
