The reflection in the water is sort of odd, but that might be a result of selectively brightening the water in post.

this is some old gold: [video=vimeo;7809605]http://vimeo.com/7809605[/video] it's a rendered movie of various famous buildings from around the world. it's a FULL-CG animated piece
Damn, all that blur got really annoying really fast. Bokeh doesn't automatically make stuff interesting and artsy. Really impressive cg nonetheless
[QUOTE=SwizzChees;46337130]this is some old gold: >The Third & The Seventh< it's a rendered movie of various famous buildings from around the world. it's a FULL-CG animated piece[/QUOTE] [HD]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwEuSxAEXPA[/hd] Not as impressive as The Third & The Seventh but this video is the Unreal Engine 4 and the video was recorded in real time.
I really love my job when I see stuff like that. I really hope to make it as an architect
All this photorealistic CG reminds me of Keloid. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Nc8a9gnDso[/media] Also 100% CG, IIRC.

[b]August 14, 2003[/b] [quote]12:15 p.m. Incorrect telemetry data renders inoperative the state estimator, a power flow monitoring tool operated by the Indiana-based Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator (MISO). An operator corrects the telemetry problem and forgets to restart the monitoring tool. 1:31 p.m. The Eastlake, Ohio generating plant shuts down. The plant is owned by FirstEnergy, an Akron, Ohio-based company that had experienced extensive recent maintenance problems. 2:02 p.m. The first of several 345 kV overhead transmission lines in northeast Ohio fails due to contact with a tree in Walton Hills, Ohio. 2:14 p.m. An alarm system fails at FirstEnergy's control room and is not repaired. 3:05 p.m. A 345 kV transmission line known as the Chamberlin-Harding line sags into a tree and trips in Parma, south of Cleveland. 3:17 p.m. Voltage dips temporarily on the Ohio portion of the grid. Controllers take no action. 3:32 p.m. Power shifted by the first failure onto another 345 kV power line, the Hanna-Juniper interconnection, causes it to sag into a tree, bringing it offline as well. While MISO and FirstEnergy controllers concentrate on understanding the failures, they fail to inform system controllers in nearby states. 3:39 p.m. A FirstEnergy 138 kV line trips in northern Ohio. 3:41 p.m. A circuit breaker connecting FirstEnergy's grid with that of American Electric Power is tripped as a 345 kV power line (Star-South Canton interconnection) and fifteen 138 kV lines fail in rapid succession in northern Ohio. 3:46 p.m. A fifth 345 kV line, the Tidd-Canton Central line, trips offline. 4:05:57 p.m. The Sammis-Star 345 kV line trips due to undervoltage and overcurrent interpreted as a short circuit. 4:06–4:08 p.m. A sustained power surge north toward Cleveland overloads three 138 kV lines. 4:09:02 p.m. Voltage sags deeply as Ohio draws 2 GW of power from Michigan, creating simultaneous undervoltage and overcurrent conditions as power attempts to flow in such a way as to rebalance the system's voltage. 4:10:34 p.m. Many transmission lines trip out, first in Michigan and then in Ohio, blocking the eastward flow of power around the south shore of Lake Erie from Toledo, Ohio, east through Erie, Pennsylvania, and into the Buffalo, New York, metropolitan area. Suddenly bereft of demand, generating stations go offline, creating a huge power deficit. In seconds, power surges in from the east, overloading east-coast power plants whose generators go offline as a protective measure, and the blackout is on. 4:10:37 p.m. The eastern and western Michigan power grids disconnect from each other. Two 345 kV lines in Michigan trip. A line that runs from Grand Ledge to Ann Arbor known as the Oneida-Majestic interconnection trips. A short time later, a line running from Bay City south to Flint in Consumers Energy's system known as the Hampton-Thetford line also trips. 4:10:38 p.m. Cleveland separates from the Pennsylvania grid. 4:10:39 p.m. 3.7 GW power flows from the east along the north shore of Lake Erie, through Ontario to southern Michigan and northern Ohio, a flow more than ten times greater than the condition 30 seconds earlier, causing a voltage drop across the system. 4:10:40 p.m. Flow flips to 2 GW eastward from Michigan through Ontario (a net reversal of 5.7 GW of power), then reverses back westward again within a half second. 4:10:43 p.m. International connections between the United States and Canada start to fail. 4:10:45 p.m. Northwestern Ontario separates from the east when the Wawa-Marathon 230 kV line north of Lake Superior disconnects. The first Ontario power plants go offline in response to the unstable voltage and current demand on the system. 4:10:46 p.m. New York separates from the New England grid. 4:10:50 p.m. Ontario separates from the western New York grid. 4:11:57 p.m. The Keith-Waterman, Bunce Creek-Scott 230 kV lines and the St. Clair–Lambton #1 230 kV line and #2 345 kV line between Michigan and Ontario fail. 4:12:03 p.m. Windsor, Ontario, and surrounding areas drop off the grid. 4:12:58 p.m. Northern New Jersey separates its power-grids from New York and the Philadelphia area, causing a cascade of failing secondary generator plants along the New Jersey coast and throughout the inland regions west. 4:13 p.m. End of cascading failure. 256 power plants are off-line, 85% of which went offline after the grid separations occurred, most due to the action of automatic protective controls.[/quote] [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d3/Northeast_blackout_2003.gif[/img] [img]http://www.900chml.com/uploads/wp_page_headers/header_66_1246.jpg[/img][img]http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/archives/sunnews/straighttalk/media/2013/08/20130810-140813-g.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.teslasociety.com/blackout5.jpg[/img] [img]http://cdn.lightgalleries.net/4bd5ebf2966e6/images/aaa22-2.jpg[/img] [img]http://untappedcities.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Blackout-BrooklynBridge-2003-WooTang01-NYC-Untapped-Cities.jpg-.jpg[/img][img]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3359/3574008374_a6eecca4bf.jpg[/img] [img]http://graphics7.nytimes.com/images/2003/08/15/national/14cnd-power.slide8.jpg[/img][img]http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2013/08/12/2003-blackout-004-07f4927d3e4eb4a4acfafbef5094ffb33b4f9160.jpg?s=6[/img]

[QUOTE=meppers;46348435]Why is the skeleton in several colors? Is it gravity lensing?[/QUOTE] I think it's the intestines and lungs highlighted in blue and green, respectively.
[QUOTE=Binladen34;46348487]That week was incredible. I remember sweating my ass off and playing my gameboy. I wish it would happen again though, I wanna get some photos of the next time it happens.[/QUOTE] I was in the middle of nowhere in Ontario when the lines kicked it. I was too busy having fun outside that I didn't notice that everything dropped dead. We got power back pretty soon though. I think it was 10 that night.

The resolution of those images would make the small bills so uneconomical to print. You'd eat so much ink.
