Fun Facts

My take on that: I never post the best of any series.

Fun fact: Historical moments in photographic history.

The spooky part is, she's the clever one. It's not like he could go next door and just duck back for more shots is it!

Just like "It's not the fall from a rooftop building that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end".

remember those 10,000 volt hand shake toys that gave you a shock but didnt kill you 😁
static electricity : Under severe conditions, up to 15,000 Volts have been recorded. It is quite common to experience 5,000V. In fact, many people do not feel a shock from a static electricity discharge less than about 2,000-4,000V.

Well, I never put photos online that I have been paid for, even if it was for a print. It would not be fair to those who paid for them to then see them available for free online to anyone.

There was a guy on dpreview, DonB (no relation to the OP), who ended up "donating" several of his photos he had posted there and in his gallery to people who downloaded them. Some made excellent starter images for editing with special effects. Some of the results I have seen are stunning.

@DonaldB

This keeps the neighborhood kids away from my 17 and 20 meter beam antenna. lol

OHMS, ha love it :-)

thats cool, i used to have some massive cubical quads swinging in the air many years ago .time flys 45. Kenwood ts520s bought it new when i was 17 yold.

This Heron tried it once

He was only using a Yaesu though.

This is called "dark current radiation" the pentax was renowned for it 😂

this is what happens when you really crank up the iso 😂🤣😵‍💫

You pay big money for that hairdo now Don :-) Classic.

Fun fact: I was the first photographer to get a shot of Keith Richards when he fell out of the palm tree in Fiji.

The voltage equalizes almost immediately upon discharge. There isn't enough time to sustain any harmful current. Become part of the circuit between thousands of volts that are sustainable under load, though, and then you have problems.

Maybe that's because you built it out of matchsticks?

The Aleutian Islands cross the international date line :)

It’s interesting that they cross the longitude line, but I think they actually made the time zone jump out a bit so Alaska doesn’t have a separate time zone on a couple islands.

I’d have to confirm. But that’s what it shows in google maps.

What??!!
