I have a question, or maybe it's an issue.

I am a retired Xerox digital image repro technician and trainer, a retired old lady.

What I have been doing for four years is look at NASA photos to identify faults: skew, aspect ratio defects [due to pitch, roll and yaw of moving camereas]; inverts, extreme and undeveloped contrast; false hues, paint-overs and occultation [which is a software routine].

I have tens of thousands of NASA photos scrutinized and "corrected," the way I used to "fix" my copier customers' copies. I have photos of Venus, our Moon, Mars and Mars' moons, Jupiter's Moons, Saturn and Saturn's Moons, and Asteroids.

What shall I bring here for people to see? Or will I get banned for showing up with these photos which now have greater detail than their NASA equivalents. Yes, I provide SOURCE PHOTO links.

Thank you for your advice and consideration.

I would just post what you have.
Make sure you can explain it all, the more pics the better but be prepared to stand your ground.
The more thorough you are the better.

I can't speak for the admin of the site but if you have something please share.

Over the past four years, I have accumulated about 40,000 photographs ... it's like Fibber McGee's closet.

Folders in folders in folders. I'll try to just bring up photos for which I have a source citation at NASA.

Fair enough?

I figure, Moon and Mars for starters, right?

Is it 40.000 non retouched photographs or are they the one the NASA retouched ???

Btw, it would be nice to see Mars pictures or Moon pictures or whatever else (even if they are retouched !). I guess you should have some pictures unknown by people !

Thats awesome !

Quite a collection.

The best of the moon and mars would be a good start.

Are there any anomolies in your photos?

Welcome to ATS.

Is the Pope Catholic?

That's all I collect; I don't care about the photos that don't show anything.

Namely Life and the Living.

Okay, I'll go look at some Conspiracy threads, because that's where NASA photos belong, I BELIEVE.

Excellent!

I, and others no doubt, anxiously await your first post of images.

It's a nice day we are having, is it not? (This is not a pointless question to get your 20 post up..no... no...not at all *ahem* )

Of course not! We wouldn't want to be guilty of that, now would we?

Besides, the 20-posting rules just adds to the suspense.

I am really looking forward to these pics! I love the smell of NASA-busting, conspiratorial, anomaly pic threads in the morning. After that first cup of java of course.

Okay, here's the first PLANETARY photo of Mars, out of the Rover database. This is the McMurdo Hill of the Ultreya Plateau not far from the Homeplate. We no longer get new photos out of this area because the Spirit Rover got stuck in a sand trap. This photo is from 2006.



SOURCE PHOTO:
Mars Rovers

The problems with this photo that made details hard to see. But roads and bermed shelters are obvious, plus other details.

1. 500% over-hued with a burnt orange that filled the sky with brown.
2. Aspect-ratio resolved at 5:1, not 4:1
3. Contrast was under-developed so there was a rest dust covering everything.

Just for background information, in case you didn't know, Mars is NOT RED except at the end of a dry summer season, which is six months long. Mars has atmosphere; it snows in winter, floods in spring.

Hi, I just wanted to say thanks for sharing.

I look forward to viewing you contributions.

Well, that's nice to hear. Thank you.

I figure I'll just contribute a couple photos a day and see how it goes, one moon, one planetary.

No use going overboard.

That's gonna take a while. (40000 photos/ 2 photos per day = 20000 days. 20000 days/ 365.25 days per year = 54.757 years!)

I suggest setting up a photobucket.com account... it is easier to upload mass amounts of photos there to show us and such.

wow, that's impressive OP. any chance you could post them on an FTP site?
john lear gave us a link about 2 years ago of apollo mission photos and i downloaded about 500 of them.

really interested to see these. keep us posted.

This is a really interesting thread, thanks for starting it OP. Maybe you could create a Flickr account and give us the link instead of posting one or two one hear daily.
