PhotoTracker

Photo Tracker is a simple application that enables photographer Geotagging photos by writing GPS data from GPS log file (in NMEA format or GPX files, such as SONY GPS-CS1 recording log, Garmin GPX) into photograph files in some formats (i.e. Nikon Raw, Canon RAW of coz JPEG). The app is completely programmed in Microsoft c# language, reading EXIF and writing GPS data functions are implemented based on wonderful Exiftool(by Phil Harvey). I didn’t do much testing on Canon RAW file like CR2, but I think it is ok because it is oringinally supported by Exiftool.

I have another hardware DIY solution for add GPS feature for Nikon DSLR with 10 pin connector.

Riding in spring

Barrier gathers moss

熬过了漫长的,寒冷的上海冬天,终于可以在一个天色不明,隐约感觉到阳光的下午

出去骑车。尽管在海边,还是能强烈感觉到春天的气息,防波堤上的苔藓绿的能冒出油来。

Barrier

不知道这种黄色的小野花到底是什么花,长的遍地都是,在San Jose也能见到大片的这种野花

Wild flower

乐极生悲的是,回家的时候,鬼使神差地顶着自行车开进了车库,结果是车顶花拉拉,车架报废… 导致车子要进厂维修… 破大财,消大灾…

Sun Microsystem Campus - Santa Clara

去过不少公司的Campus,无疑Sun在Santa Clara的是最漂亮的一个,真正的大学式的园区。有意思的是这片建筑的前身是成立于1896年的California hospital for Chronic Insane,大约就是加州的精神病院,漂亮是漂亮,就是不知道联想起自己的办公室原来是疯子的病房,工作起来是什么感觉。

San Jose处处与这些高科技公司离不开关系,Adode赞助了San Jose Downtown doors的项目,就是在城里的许多门上画上漂亮的抽象画

Art door in San Jose Downtown

Downtown有两个Museum,一个是TheTech Museum of innovation,其实主要适合小孩子去,里面大量真正“声,光,电,影”结合的项目设计几乎所有的科学门类,甚至有一台核磁共振仪。

TheTech Innocation Museum

这个机器人能根据输入的字符把你的名字用印有字母的小木块排出来,正在排我的…

还有一个San Jose Museum of Art ,也不错,不过与De Young相比,相形见绌了San Jose Art Museum
