Lytro, a picture revolution

If you're a photo junkie, you would know how it feels when you took a photo that's out of focus, if only you can recreate the moment, but you can't. But do not falter, there's a new player in town with a new toys.

Introducing Lytro, the camera that allowed you to refocus your photo, after you took it. How the magic happens? In simple laymen term, a camera has sensor that detect light field, and this light field are usually finite, meaning there are limit. However, the new sensor in Lytro camera pick up all light field from the scene, which means it pick up the light direction, intensity and colour.

Now, with this, vast amount of data, you can change the picture to your desire, also, you would never has problem auto-focus since it grabs all the light field, making the photo capturing faster. It would also allow you to capture a low light scene better, without having to use a flash.

ocean life on mass extinction

Here's your daily dose of Earth preservation. The ocean are now undergoing mass extinction, according to scientist, you can blame that on over-fishing and global warming.

The proves of coral reef dying around the world and increasing area call the "dead zone", this area are basically where the oxygen are so low that no living organisms can live in it, it is real, and it is spreading.

It is also said that we will lose major ocean ecosystem in a single generation. This is a real risk, much more bigger than previously thought. The ocean are facing the deadly trios, acidification, higher temperature and lack of oxygen. This trio is an evidence of mass extinction in the past.

The source are clear, acidification cause by the absorption of carbon dioxide by the use of fossil fuel, which also heating up the planet, while the low oxygen area are cause by run-off of fertilizers and other man made substance.

Unlike global warming, over-fishing is entirely different problem. It can be regulated by strict policy and tighter law. Over-fishing in some area across the globe has resulted in the extinction of some species even bring them to the brink of extinction.
