MeteoLecce (9): new design!

I want to update the development of my app MeteoLecce. I'll start we the two following pictures:

The main activity of MeteoLecce
Do you see some changes?
I reduced the information on the first activity and I compacted them; in this way we have a much simpler reading of them (I also introduced the colors).

The activity related to the next 3 days weather forecast

Relating to second activity's infos I added 4 icons for each day (at the times: 0 - 6 - 12 and 6 P.M.). Tempeatures are two: high/low.

I hope to share my app on Google Play soon.

ISS by Smartphone (Nexus 5)

These are some pictures of the ISS I took using my smartphone:

1) Between the clouds a luminous point is hiding...

2) This zoom helps us to visualize it better...

3) At the maximum magnitude point his luminosity has reached the value of -2.2!!

Around 18:50 of the 7th october 2014 from my leccese studio flat I took some photos by my smartphone to the transit of the ISS.

First is a wide landascape photo while the others are closer.

The ginned effect is due, in the first, to the high ISO, note the other parameters:

1° photo

  • dist. focale = 3.97 mm
  • f = 1/2.53
  • t = 1/10 sec
  • ISO = 2033

2° photo

  • dist. focale = 3.97 mm
  • f = 1/2.53
  • t = 1/10 sec
  • ISO = 3200

Thanks to the high magnitude (-2.2 around the best point of visibility) it was possible to see the ISS between the clouds.
