I've been out and about a little so...........................

Hiya there, I have been out using this Samsung Galaxy NX camera a little. It is the same sensor, as my beloved Samsung NX300, so I'm hoping for great images, ('cos that is what the NX300 delivered, especially during my trip to Germany, in very bright sunshine). I have to say, so far the camera has delivered on the image quality anyway. The Galaxy NX is a bit more of a "handful," than the NX300. It is more of DSLR size and weight. It is a fully integrated camera, in that it has the Android operating system built in. So, it has the ability to send pics straight out of the camera to the internet. One can also download any Apps. that they need and operate them on the camera. It has a huge rear screen, so you can do any post processing of your image before sending it to the internet, too. Marvellous!

 

The above photo was taken on our walk through the woods at Darran Parc, Ferndale.

 

The above image was taken at Pen-Rhys, in the Rhondda valley. It shows the statue of St. Mary, at the famous St. Mary's Well shrine, which is a site for religious pilgrims, and has been for hundreds of years. You can also see the flipping Wind Turbines that this Tory Government are erecting all over the place. What an eyesore. I agree with generating Green Energy, but why can't they be erected off shore, or use wave power and tidal force to generate it, instead of these God awful turbines all over the landscape.

 

 

 Above is another photo taken at Darran Parc, Ferndale.

Yet another at Darran Parc, it was very cold there, do you think the lady in the pic shows it to be cold?

Another pic of the St. Mary statue with a Rhondda Fach landmark in the background, to the left. It is Llanwonno Twmp. This is a left over scar, (landmark), from the days when Coal was King. It is a slag heap. This tump is now two thirds smaller than it originally was. After the Disaster at Aberfan, the N.C.B tried to clean up the mess it had left around the valleys. They wanted to remove this tip, but were prevented from doing so by the Civil Aviation Authority, (C.A.A). The C.A.A said it was a landmark for aircraft flying over Wales, and, as such, could not be removed. In the end, the C.A.A and the N.C.B came to an agreement and the tip was reduced in height, by two thirds, but left to serve as a plainly visible marker, for any aircraft in the vicinity.

                                      That's all for now guys, the Galaxy NX did well in documenting my little outing around the nearby area. Speak soon, take care all. Regards Twm.
