Finally a somewhat displayable picture which would not have been possible at all using my older camera!!
Surya Kiran the aerobatic team of Indian Air force performed over the city airport as a part of finale for the National Air Race. These shots, an example of extreme zoom, were taken from our roof top. Airport is about 10 Kms away, so these jets were not flying exactly overhead 
The 800×600 is achieved by cropping the Hi Res 5MP pictures. The pixelation of sky is artifact of compression needed for the web…
These shots would not be possible with my older Casio8000SX because it is very slow to get ready would have missed the shots before it came on, 1MP does not leave any room for cropping
There are a couple of more of Aasim which I took when he was blowing soap bubbles thinking no one was looking – will post them as soon I get time to resize and upload
In other things we have just returned from a day out with Aasim and are again going out to get some clothes for him – some guys gave all the fun.
Most of them photographs
I don’t see any JPEG artefacts in the sky. Seems like a clear shade of blue to me.
BTW, how do you manage to get plain white or black backgrounds in your pictures? Do you just rely on the difference in brightness to achieve that?
I don’t see any JPEG artefacts in the sky
Most monitors won’t show it at 32 bits (downgrade to 24 or 16 bit display to make it more apparent)
plain white or black backgrounds in your pictures
Setting is mostly topical – like in the Gerbera picture white is a handheld A4 sheet of paper lit with an additional table lamp where as in Aasim’s MIB picture it is an open door of unlit bathroom
Kinda digressing but..
Reading the title of your post I was reminded of a nusery rhyme I learnt when I was kid. ( which I’ve promptly forgotten except for the first 2-3 lines ).
Konkani -
Suryanchi kirane , dharyaanth liplo , chandrama oochelo
