This is zoomed all the way out, I was pooped so I haven't taken any snapshots to see what kind of pixel density I'm getting, might be able to zoom it in a little but it's a rough spot with a walkway on the right side of the frame and an opening on the left side.

Looks like it is getting dark if not already. What camera is this? By the way the big labels on the ladder are clear. I would imagine you would get a good face ID.

That's a seriously special ed motion light installation. Upside down and blocked by the pillar
yeah, it was here when we got here and it works so I don't really care lol although I may leave it off now because I think it messed with the camera a little bit. I don't own the place so I'm not worried about doin anything with it. we have LED street lamps anyways so the front yard is lit up pretty good, I'll be interested to see how the ultra starlight bullet looks in full color mode when it gets here.

I will say the light does work for in the driveway where the wife parks, which I think was their goal. aint no other motion lights on the outside of the house, only other light is a big flood light that lights up the back yard, but no motion sensor on it.

It will work better if you rotate it so the motion sensor is down. Just turn the power to the light off, loosen/remove the screw turn it and tighten. You can adjust the angle of the lights pretty easily too and it this may help with it messing with the camera.

yeah, there is a light switch inside the door that powers it, I might look at it tomorrow and check it out, should be easy to flip that mofo over lol.

He's prettier than the last one to visit here just before Easter. He wanted to know if I'd join him in celebrating the death of Jesus Christ. Nope nope nope.
