High-speed photos of paint splashed just the right way to simulate flowers!
Photographer Jack Long diligently plans out each photo, shooting hundreds of tests. None are Photoshopped other than to “clean up” the photo.

Home automation taken to the extreme
I am at my friend’s home in Hillsborough, near San Francisco. My friend whose name I don’t share for privacy reasons, is a tech entrepreneur whose company focused on hardware that makes your life simpler. He sold it and now he is thinking of his next company and using his home as a lab.
My friend’s home has the most amazing home automation system I have ever seen. He has a sound system in his garden where music comes off trees in different directions all connected to his iPhone. His water fountain programs are connected to the iPhone. He has a fireplace that goes on and off connected to the iPhone. On top of that he has security systems, surveillance systems, also connected to the iPhone. And yes, he also occasionally answers a phone call on his iPhone as well. Other than that he has a commercial grade digital movie theater that operates exactly as commercial movie theaters operate. We just saw some trailers and it was absolutely incredible, especially the sound coming off the Genelec speakers and the screen resolution. Each movie is not 1GB, it’s not 20GB like with Blue Ray, it’s over 100GB and it shows. Every detail of somebody’s face is seen as if you were seeing the person right there in front of you. And then of course lights turn themselves on and off as you walk into rooms and things like that that are more common but all very well integrated.
