What, your, religion, money

friiskiwi says:

Nice idea, but it pays to tick upload Hig Resolution.
Welcome to the site;
Go to;
My Stuff
my contest entries
find this entry and click on ;
edit entry
Upload the corrected image (if you have changed it)
remember to tick;
Also save full resolution image.
Your image doesn't need to be enormous, anything between 2.5mg and 3.5mg is plenty big enough.
Good luck

When you upload images there is also a box to tic for uploading the full Res. It really is worth while as the down sampled image you see here, doesn't do you photo justice.

thank you for the advice!
I'm uploading the full resolution image right now.

Wonderful idea and not a bad attempt...the image is very well organized and has a story or concept but lacks "WOW"....in the future, try a lower angle perhaps and try to avoid centering everything...read up on the 'rule of thirds' and work on you composition a bit, but otherwise, I really enjoy this image.

Howdie stranger!

What an eyesore, great find.

It looks as if the clouds on the left are moving toward the building, to be absorbed in the stone and leave their imprint there.

This picture shows the opposition between the sportsmen who climb the mountain and the photographer who rests in the cable-car :) (5 years and 2685 days ago)

Sweat, money

I think even I, when I walk

author says:

So do I! But I do not yet have the level for alpinism, hence the cable-car

A pitcher stands less than 20 meters from the batter, and throws the ball at speeds of around 40 meters/sec. In that time the ball drops from its "straight line" path by about 1.2 meters.

Because of the stitches on the baseball there is considerable turbulence affecting its motion, and it may behave somewhat erratically. The complications in the motion of the ball arise from the Prandtl Layer of air that moves with the baseball, and which has a dominating effect on the motion of the ball.

The pitcher may put considerable spin on the baseball, corresponding to about 20 revolutions over its path.

A batter has about 0.5 seconds to gauge the path of a pitch, and the bat must be at the right place [within about 1 cm] at the right time [within 0.01 seconds] to make solid contact.

The bat-ball collision lasts typically for 0.001 seconds, and the average force on this ball is of order 10,000 Newtons, corresponding to a mass of about 1000 kg [or a ton].

Taking this into consideration if a batter manages to make contact with s baseball that is pitched between 30-45 m/s has the potential to leave the bat at a speed of 60 m/s spinning up to 3000 rpm and can return to the mound in 0.45 sec.

If the baseball traveling at a potential speed of 45 m/s contacts a stationary object i.e. a camera some of the kinetic energy is transferred to the stationary object. Kinetic energy is equal to Â½ m v 2. The transfer of energy in this case will be equal to 1/2 the ball's mass multiplied by the square of it's velocity.

The amount of potential damage that a camera would incur if impacted by a by a baseball is incalculable as there are too many variables to account for. Therefore attempting to capture an image such as this could be considered by some to be gutsy...

Hopefully this explanation will appease the mod who told me I needed to add a description. :-D (5 years and 2830 days ago)
