Sardonic Sights
A photo brought to you fresh every day by Robert Newey.
Attack of the cyborgs, and Brad
On this glorious sunny occasion the Hurlstone contingent of HS1917 pupils spent a day at UNSW where there was an overabundance of rain, robots, and Brad being a badass with an umbrella.
Here we observe Brad coming to rescue me from under a building on the way to lunch.
Later on in the basement of the computer science building there were some simple robots lying around.
Then even later on there was a presentation of some much more sophisticated robots playing soccer.
Climbing of the rocks
Today is glorious 12th April, when for great good CSEsoc went rock climbing in sunny St. Peters(burg). Second three digital pixel image were taken by illustrious Beth Crane. For now, Моё судно на воздушной подушке полно угрей, or as they say in English, my hovercraft is full of eels.
So, it’s the 8th of April, how about that.
To be perfectly honest, I’m writing this on the 19th of April and haven’t the foggiest about what happened today. Hopefully one of you might be able to piece it together for me.
For context, the flower is just outside my house, that’s the bus stop I go to, then there are birds, ants and rain. No idea why.
I lost a pint of blood today – Why didn’t you?
Today I donated blood, and it really is not much effort. The only valid excuse I know of is that the red cross won’t let you give blood. There is even a bonus free milkshake at the end!
Also, thong vending machines?
It’s Monday!
Today is a reasonably eclectic collection of photos. This was brought about by the arrival of a new lens, the Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS 2. It is one incredible lens, being able to shoot at f2.8 where I could previously only use f5.6 is a massive difference, and all the pictures are just really sharp. There are only two drawbacks as far as I can see, one, it is really heavy and carrying it around is a bit of a hassle, and two, since its minimum focal length is 70mm it’s far too zoomed in for most purposes. For instance I was at a barbecue today and I simply couldn’t stand far enough back to get a picture of the crowd.
This guy was asleep in the back of my OS lecture again. I swear there must be a reason for this.
Triviyeah!
Today was one of the social highlights of the UNSW CSE student network, trivia! It was seriously proper fun with free beer and too much pizza and some really cool people. In fact, some of those cool people are below, though this by no means an exhaustive list.
Truth cup
This cup is true approximately 90% of the time. Also, at some stage I should look into whether the binary says anything.
The path to happiness
There may or may not exist a path to happiness, though the path pictured is probably not it.
Walking to Uni
I’m inclined to believe that often when go about our daily lives we out of necessity miss small interesting details of everything around us. Now, to me, holding a camera gives you permission to spend 400 hours walking to uni because you were looking at everything along the way, trying to find small interesting details that you hadn’t found before. So yesterday (20th March), I happened across a skink, some sap and a black cat! (I can see how excited you are 
)
