Loft Update
Wow, it’s been 21 days since I last posted about my kitchen! Well, in that time I’ve mostly done boring things like unpack boxes. But I did decide on track pendant accent lighting for the kitchen counter, and I finally installed those this week and adjusted the lengths tonight.
For digital photo buffs: the picture shows the limitation of conventional CCD digital cameras, which have at most a 10-bit dynamic range tonemapped into 8 bits, log space. Result: clear edges in the pendant lights, but dark colors and muddy details in the rest of the picture. Now if I could only figure out how to realistically tonemap the output of our 16-bit sensor into a standard 8-bit display in realtime…

It’s so obvious! Simply sensorize the 16-bit tonemap in real time then digitize the outputs which dynamicizes the range into the log space. Have you thought of that?
what in the world??? I have no idea what you (Ed and Eugene) are saying…LOL
Ha ha… neither do I.
Looks nice.
I think it’s time for another dating post, with a graph!
oooh, those are so pretty.
hahaha, but you sound very convincing, Eugene!
you just need an off-camera light source.
just catching up with your posts and getting informed.
i have to tell you though that this one is soooo very Greek to me. he he
nice kitchen. did you just move into a new place or something? the kitchen looks clean. not like my kitchen.
changed,
That’s going to be a kick-*** kitchen!
Did you do all the wiring and tiling yourself?
Hi. I moved into a new place a month ago after spending the past 6 months working on building it (with the help of an architect, contractor, designer and about 40 Highrock friends). The contractor did the tiling, the designer (ntduke) helped me pick out the tiles, and I’m doing all the wiring myself. That is, whatever the city inspector lets me do, like installing light fixtures.
that oven/range looks SO fun!! and that hood – it looks like it could suck you up…be careful.
Beautiful kitchen
