here we go again -_-

anyway, from those pics, i can't really tell the difference of turbluence. but the 2nd set seems to be slighty less exposed than the first set, also seem to be slighty sharper due to DOF.

Hi,
Hey.... Don't like that lah...

you can't use the image of that pair of florescent lamps to look for the effect of turbulence lah. I don't think there are any turbulence between you and that pair of florescent lamps.

If you really want to use a terrestrial object for checking the effect of turbulence, use a far away object on sea at night, such as a far away ship... the hot air above the sea will rise and causing some air turbulence and this should cause a similar effect of atmospheric turbulance.

Have a nice day.

haha, maybe viewing across the expressway during a hot afternoon can create a worst-case scenario,

You can see the images have this wavy effect that is due to turbulence. And those lamps are very far away....i'm at Boon Lay and those lamps are on a building somewhere at Lim Chu Kang.

Anyway i can't see any difference between the two also, based on turbulence alone.

i don't think our eyes have the same sensitivity for details as the webcam,
