A rainy day in NYC (photo gallery)

After visiting the PhotoPlus expo the three of us headed back in the direction of Penn Station with the intention of finding food along the way before taking the subway in the general direction of Ground Zero. We wound up at the Tick Tock diner for lunch which turned out to be a pretty amusing time. [...]

2008 PDN PhotoPlus Expo

The trip this past weekend was over in a flash, but it was a fun time. I’ll go over our visit to the PDN PhotoPlus expo in this post and the rest of the trip in another.

Test your color vision with X-rite’s online 100 hue test

X-rite has a really neat online Farnsworth-Munsell 100 hue test that you can use to test your color vision. I want to be completely clear that I make no guarantees about the accuracy of this test though. I performed it on a new LED backlit LCD which has particularly vivid colors and scored a 107 on it which is considerably better than my performance using the real thing in a proper viewing booth with a calibrated light source (I got an average of 163 under those conditions).
