Last week, I looked at: if Google could identify a dog. I provided what I would consider one of the easiest image to identify a dog with https://www.sritch.com/photography/ai-detecting-dogs/. This week, I’ll see if Google’s Vision can identify a cat.
Everybody talks about artificial intelligence and how it will revolutionize … (insert whatever topic you want). Currently, it’s mostly used for pattern matching and subject identification. Google has made available its “Google Vision API” to analyze photos.
This applies to all digital cameras including: Olympus/OM Systems, Panasonic/Lumix, Fujifilm, Canon, Nikon, Sony…
Deleting images while reviewing is supposed to corrupt the memory card. Why don’t you try it yourself?
This is what I call Dodoïte’s ‘Dumb Corgi’ look. That’s when he’s happy. It’s just like a Corgi, except for his ears that are not straight up. Many people think that he’s an Australian Sheppard because of his ears.
Who’s faster? Is this dog running faster than the dragon boat crew behind?
On a short run, it’s not even a contest, the dog is much faster. Any dog, even a sausage dog aka a Dachshund, can out-accelerate a dragon boat. A Whippet or a Greyhound can easily out-accelerate a Porsche or a Ferrari. A Greyhound can reach 50 kilometers per hour in 3 steps.
You are done! After you’ve copied all of your photos from the memory card to the computer, should you:
My preference, and that’s what I’ve been using for a while, is none of these three alternatives.
Many people jog on the weekend, especially on the Vancouver Seawall.
Often, I see people jogging with their dog but with two Huskies? Never before.
Actually Huskies are great for jogging, since they love to run in a group. Their only problem is the heat… but this was in the early spring and in the morning of a fairly cloudy day, as you can see from the shadow underneath the dogs and the joggers.
Will these 3 photographers have the same images?
Two of these photographers are taking images at 400mm. The Nikon guy uses a 70-200mm and the TC2x and his tripod is not fully spread out to have a little bit more height. The Canon guy uses a 100-400mm. The only guy that is slightly different is the guy at the back with a 500mm and the Better Beamer on his flash.
They all have the same position, they all have the same height and they all have very similar lenses. I’m always interested in the periphery. What are the other photographers not seeing or not doing? If I can find it then my photos will be very different.
In the doggy world, there’s always a boss. Whenever a person comes near and interact, the dog will reevaluate: who’s the boss? Whenever another dog comes near and interact, the dog will reevaluate: who’s the boss?
Some animals exude confidence.
Chester is a ‘cool’ cat. Not much phases him. He is very interested in people. Chester doesn’t hiss, Chester doesn’t scratch, Chester doesn’t bite. I like Chester.
People adopt dogs. The bonding happens during the walk. Dogs will bond with the person because of the shared experience of going for the hunt walk.
