Welcome to Photo of the Day. The POTD thread was started by iGary in May, 2006 and converted to a monthly thread in November 2007 by Arn. POTD is one of the most popular picture groups on MacRumors, often exceeding 500 posts and 20,000 views per month.

Photo of the Day is intended to be a showcase for your best pictures. There is no limit to your gear, just your imagination. P&S and film cameras are welcome along with DSLRs. There are no themes like the Weekly Contest, and no winners (or losers) either.

Policies

*One Photo per Day - Don't post more than one photo each day.

*Multi-Quote - To comment on several photos, click the "+ (Multi-Quote) button. This puts all your comments in one post. Multi-Quoting is required on all of the MacRumors forums.

*SFW (Safe for Work) only - This is a site - wide rule. If you wouldn't show it in a public place, then it's NSFW (not safe for work). Think before you post.

*Describe your photo - Tell what it is and where you took it. If you know the EXIF data of a photo, include it. The following EXIF fields are recommended: Camera, ISO, Focal Length, Shutter/Aperture and Lens.


Note: Anyone may start the Photo of the Day thread on the first of the month GMT. Please copy a quote of this post to maintain all the formatting.

What monitor is that?
AOC G Line 2nd Gen (AOC CU34G2X). 34" ultrawide with 3440 x 1440 resolution. I believe I paid $450 (US dollars) for it at the local Micro Center back in November of last year.

I really like it, but then I also don't do top of the line graphics / video work nor do I play high end games. Those seem to be the areas where reviews called out the shortcomings. Which doesn't surprise me, given the price. It is easy to spend $700 - $100 for 34" ultrawide monitors, and even more once you go up to around a 40" size.

So I am hoping that more affordable 40-43" ultrawides are available by the time I am ready to get a bigger monitor than this one in a few years.

EDIT: Here is a link to the monitor at Micro Center. I realize you may not be in a location that has a Micro Center store, but the Specs tab has a lot of technical info. AOC ultrawide monitor @ Micro Center
