Oh, to be on the beach and the only decision was what chair to relax on!

Quick peek in gang...great captures all! Debbie, that's why I live where I live...no leaves to rake...LOL! We did have quite the lightening and thunder storm this morning off the coast. Woke me up at 5:45 and I thought we were being attacked (seriously)...then opened the drapes and the window and watched the show for about a half hour then it started to rain again...

Hey everyone....just taking a break from work for a minute so I thought I would pop in and say 'Hi'. I can't help but always wonder what's going through people's minds when they're standing out there in front of the cams.
|
By Mary Breeden (BonaireTalker - Post #12) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 2:18 pm: |
LOL Michael!

Thanks Mary, I see by your profile that you're new to Bonaire Talk....welcome.

By Michael Gaunt (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #633) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 2:29 pm: |
Oh, and Cynde, for what it's worth I'm with you and Annie on the Beach Bar cam. I liked the old location better mainly because it was easier for people to put up signs to read. Imagine how big your font would need to be to get your sign read now.
|
By Cheryl Kopitzke (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #153) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 2:42 pm: |
I'm with you, too! Not only have there been NO signs since the move, but you can't see the people any more. We're left out of all the action! (Except when there's a BBQ, we can see the people lining up and filling their plates -- I'd rather see the Real Party)
|
By Denise Kacavas (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #847) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 2:45 pm: |
I agree about the location of the bar cam, but it was bad captures when the sun was setting behind the people, causing silhouettes At the previous location ... Maybe the new location needs a short pole or something to mark where to stand so people are close enough for us to read the signs and see the people well :-)
|
By Michael Gaunt (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #634) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 2:57 pm: |
I don't recall the technical information about the camera nor do I have the time to go back into the archives to find it, but would it be silly to inquire as to whether the cams have a zoom capability on them. I seem to recall that they are fixed, but if there was any way to zoom in just a little bit that would make a huge difference.

Aren't the boaters NOT supposed to go fast in the shallows/turqouise water? I hope no-one is surfacing below them...
|
By Debbie Babcock (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #220) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 4:30 pm: |
Now I have been giving this some thought, the bar cam is too far for close ups and if you hit zoom, the people are getty fuzzy all over. Background is nice, but its like you're looking in from afar. The bar is so dark, can't make out anyone, even at the table, it's hard to see. I know it was a lot of work to move the web cam, but we need to figure out how to make this location work better for viewers. I'm sure Jake is thinking this too, we need to read signs, Jake! See our friends up close and personal. Maybe you can put on a telopathic lense. Now, you know I am no camera knowledgable person, sounds like something superman would use, but its all I could come up with.

O.K. I can hear everyone laughing from here. I know my idea made no sense, but I made you all laugh, didn't I?

Thanks, Jake, I knew you were on it. I would help, but my arms won't make it there from Jersey.
|
By Cynde (BonaireTalk Deity - Post #12515) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 4:51 pm: |
Jake, I like lowering the cam on the pole/tree/whatever...oh, and please tell Henk that we really aren't a bunch of whiners...well, maybe only a little...LOL!

By Linda Stoltzfus (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #373) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 5:02 pm: |
whine, whine ....we just want to SEE our friends and their signs! The other cam positions give us a great view of Eden Beach...we just need ONE to show faces. Thanks for your help!

Oh dear. Didn't mean to open a can o' worms with my opinion, but I still say that this view is just plain boring actually. I'm a whiner, and I'll admit it. LOL.

|
By Cheryl Kopitzke (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #157) on Thursday, October 28, 2004 - 6:43 pm: |
Ok, here's my last (I hope) new-camera-angle whine: there's just one brief time of day when you can really see folks (kinda the opposite of what we had with the sunset silhouettes -- you could see people in the morning, early afternoon and after sunset; now you can't see them except in the late afternoon/early evening). Okay. I'm done whining. But Jake, I will be there Nov 13-20 and we'll be willing to help if you need us.
