London at Night
A few days ago I finally wandered into London with a tripod and my camera. I've been meaning to do this for months and take long exposure shots of various places in London, as well as seeing whether I can make cool timelapses. I've only taken a few pictures near the Thames and the London Eye so far, with one timelapse of the London Eye. I am however planning to return for more. This photography trip also coincided with the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus.
Here are some of the images:
Jupiter and Venus next to Big Ben
A bus streaming past
Houses of parliament
And at last item, a timelapse of the London Eye:
This timelapse was recorded with 802 images. Each image is taken 3 seconds after the previous one resulting in a speed-up of 75 times. Lighting has been manually monitored during the taking of the images.
The rest of the images are on flickr.

TIL that Kingfishers can hover just like hummingbird. I'll hopefully have some reasonable shots after I've gone through my nearly thousand shots today...

I think this was my favourite photo of the set that I took. It's not at maximum coverage, but it does have a sun spot group (4508) just on the cusp of the terminator.

No totality here in London, but still had a great evening out in the local park and taking some snaps.
I did have a nice Solar Filter that I made for my lens, and had many conversations with people from different backgrounds. Kids loves to look through my filter after I was done (ran out of battery power).
More photos later...

Is there somebody who runs PHP on native windows (with Xdebug) and can run a simple script for me?
It must be in a file (`test.php`):
```
<?php
echo microtime(true), "\n";
xdebug_connect_to_client();
echo microtime(true), "\n";
```And run like:
php -dxdebug.log_level=11 -dxdebug.log=c:\temp\xdebug-i.log -dxdebug.client_host=localhost -dxdebug.client_port=9111 -dxdebug.mode=debug c:\temp\test.php
With the port 9111 not open.
Would love to see the output and log file (in a DM).
