Riley, I must be more fatigued than I thought... I don't see much of a difference between A and B. What am I missing here? They're both great, but not much of difference....

It is pretty small, some vignetting that make the in focus flower stand out a bit more and some curves play.

[puddlepirate44]

It is pretty small, some vignetting that make the in focus flower stand out a bit more.

Ah, OK, I see it now. Dummy me. The vignetting on B is slight, but, yeah, it brings focus to the flahrs more.

That is a nice shot Riley. I like A BTW.

Battery is charged but still have socks to fold. BBL.

[aussieskier]

That is a nice shot Riley. I like A BTW.

Thanks, I think I might do more of these style of people shots. It is something new and fun for me. I am usually too shy to do it but since I have known this guy since I was 1.5yrs old... I am not worried. :D.

You're shy? Really? OK, if you say so....

[misspix]

Yup. I just added about 17 shots here:

Fantastic stuff Dan :D My favorite is the sand dollar. That one is wall worthy. Along with the great Haystack reflection!
Liver, definetly, liver, can't even stand the smell of it cooking.
*gak*
*shudder*
Helloooo... Mike?

Have you been tested for walking pneumonia? Not to scare you, or anything, but.... well, just sayin'.
I was thinking the same....


Becky: I thought I had hit the quote on your exposure comment, but alas...anywho-I am soooooo with you on the confused part of that! I tend to make math problems more complicated than they need to be, though.

[misspix]

Jamie: I am glad your grandma is doing better. I will continue to hold her in my thoughts, gently. Please take care of yourself, high blood pressure is not to be taken lightly.

[aussieskier]

You're shy? Really? OK, if you say so....
Only when it comes to shooting people in a non-posed sort of way.

I find the idea of shooting street candids etc fascinating and I would LOVE to do it. I just can't break out of my shell.

[aussieskier]

Actually I can be quite shy at other times. I work better in groups of people I know and then I very outgoing to everything around me it is weird.

Thanks and I will. New diet starts tomorrow. Not the weight loss kind either.

Happy 40Dness Jamie :)

Whatcha think of it so far?

[Jamie Holladay]

Happy 40Dness Jamie :)

Whatcha think of it so far?
Just took it out of the box. Trying to figure out how to put the grip on it.

[misspix]

:D Did you end up going local? Trading the 30D and other bits?

[Woolburr]

It sure took long enough for it to get noticed Jamie...gave us a good chuckle anyway!

[aussieskier]

The shutter is certainly unique I think. I liked it when Scott brought his round my house.

[misspix]

*yawn* Hate to bail on ya Jamie, but early comes early. I will look forward to some shots from your new baby :)

[Jamie Holladay]

:D Did you end up going local? Trading the 30D and other bits?
Yeah I trade 350D/30D/BG-E3/Sigma 28-90 and a very small amount of cheese. at a local shop.
It sure took long enough for it to get noticed Jamie...gave us a good chuckle anyway!
:lol:

Hang on a Permi box shot is coming up.

[aussieskier]

It is more of a motorized whirl than a slap.

[aussieskier]

Speaking of shutters...

We had a flag retirement ceremony that we do this time of year with our scout troop. One of the parents had a Pentax K10d. It had to have the most annoying shutter I have EVER heard. It is was twice as loud and lasted twice as long as the 20d/30 slap. It was almost distracting.

Awwwwwww. sweet boy! Congrats on the 40D, Jamie!

[BearLeeAlive]

Hi All, an Good Night.

Spent the evening getting all our gear packed up ready to load on Thursday as I have to go party tomorrow night. Just about have everything ready to go (one good thing about having all the gear you need in one storage area). A bit of fresh food to pack up Thursday, and we are good to go. :)

I skimmed through tonights posts is all.
Dan, does everyone get to try out that neat cloak, I like it. And your 'Big rock in the ocean' shot is my fav, a definite framer.

Jamie, WTG on the 40D. Let us know all your impressions as you give it a go. If they are out in the stores here when I get back from my trip, I just might be tempted to pick one up. :)

[Jamie Holladay]

Will Do. I am off to the Mail Box. And you all know what that means.
*boom*

[Pete]

Congrats on the lens Pete, I though that 4 lenses ago you had just the right amount of kit? :rolleyes: :lol:

Well, that's what I thought before. I think I'm just settling on what I'm happy with. The results out of the primes are stupendous.

EDIT: Though I still do have to wonder Pete......Who's Bill?

Bill, Dollar Bill



Well, it's not in the same class as L grade glass, but I received a delivery on Friday...

Here it is in situ - this also qualifies as the workstation shot I promised a while back.

The USB lead to connect it to the printer that I ordered at the same time... is due to be delivered tomorrow :roll: As it stands, the old printer has been disconnected so I can play ;):lol:

Woot!! I have the 6600 and love it. I need to colour profile it though, things are coming out a bit green. When you figure out how to do that, would you be so kind as to tell me how too?

I think these are my two favorites from the Sunday shoot with TD. Sunrise at Haystack Rock:

Woah!!!!

Wu - have you read The Time Travelors Wife (http://www.amazon.com/Time-Travelers-Wife-Audrey-Niffenegger/dp/1596921536/ref=pd_bbs_4/104-3908194-0263130?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1189558883&sr=8-4)? It's quite good! :)

Yeah, one of my favourite books, that is. I just love the intertwining of the storylines and the inevitable end.

Here is a shot from a morning just shortly when I got home from Oregon :oops:

Oooooooooh!!!

One
Thank You!


Jamie, it's perfectly acceptable for blokes to blubber like girls when it comes to their mothers. Everything you said is right on the nail, dads are great, mothers are wonderful. Feel for her, man, and don't be ashamed about it.

Yes an excellent read.

If you could only travel in time once and for only for 20 minutes where and to what time would you go?

My selfish thoughts are, to a news agent (newspaper shop) next week. I would leave with all the winning lottery numbers, all the sports results and stock prices and enough information to ensure that I never have to work again :-)

[neil_r]

Heya Deb!

I was just wondering Maxy, relax.

off to school! (I get my new lens today...its gonna be a LONG day today):lol:

[Becky N]

I am going to try to get a handle on it now. I am going to put my foot down at work and tell the fellows to lay off the intentional Wind-Ups. Change my diet as I can and reduce what stress I have control over.

Sounds like a good plan. Stick to it until it becomes a habit.

Seriously, congratulations, Jamie. Looking forward to hearing your comments.

GMAE all. Not as far ahead on the packing as Jim. I'm going to get my camera gear together tonight. Our new CF cards arrived yesterday, the GND filter should be here today.

Have you all see this thread? LINK (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=375948) I hope we get some shots like those. We are going to shoot RAW/Small Jpeg so if we get an internet link we'll share with you.

Good morning from 'Countdown minus 38 hours central station' here in rainy Calgary.

Bill, Dollar Bill
Well, aren't I the daft one some times? :rolleyes: :p

When are you picking up the 300 f/2.8 It would seem either that, or a 24L would be a likely next candidate. Or maybe it would be the 14L? Man, we should start up our own little betting pool here. :)

I really don't know at this point! I think I'm happy for now, but waiting to see what needs crop up. Gotta say that I love the recent spendies:-

135L
85L
24-70L

All been wonderful. Very surprised that the 135mm is such a great focal length.

Who needs a 70-200? Pah...

[BearLeeAlive]

Very nice, Dan.

Very nice Riley.
For sure, two other great shots from yesterday. I was just too tired to comment much on my sole post of the evening.

I swabbed my sensors, buffed the gear and packed it up last weekend. It was the first thing I got together. I knew I would have no time for shooting this week.

I am sure you will get some shots equally as good or better than those Becky. Wildlife shots are way easier to get in parks where the animals have no fear of humans. Deep in the back country it is much tougher, as they bolt as soon as they get wind of you.

A filter holder and GND filters are one of the things on my list to get. I have had many instances where they would come in handy. Either that or I have to get used to taking a couple shots exposing the dark and light areas and merging the two (as well as learning how to do this). I am taking 14.5 Mb of CF cards, so should have a bit of room for playing a bit. I also want to try some multiple pano shots and stitching them together. Something I have wanted to do for ages. I have 5 batteries so should be just fine with power.

After further reading, we should have gone with a holder system...we'll see how this works out. We will each have 7.5G of CF for a total of 15G and the laptop to download to at night. We will also have the inverter in the car so we can charge as we drive. My goal is also to try a multiple pano shot or two. My biggest goal, as I'm sure you will agree...relax, have fun, and enjoy.:D

[Pete]

Awwwwww.. I wanna go on a photo-trip too!!!!

[BearLeeAlive]

I won't have the luxury of being able to download any photos except for the ones taken prior to launch. I will have my laptop and converter in the car so the batteries will be on full when we hit the water.

I have absolutely no doubt in my mind I will be enjoying myself and getting a great rest from my regular life (whatever that is). Whenever I leave town, whether heading to our rec property, or out on a trip, I always am able to push all the dark thoughts outta me wee brain. ;) I think it has to do with the fact there is absolutely nothing I could do about them, even if I want. :)

[BearLeeAlive]

Awwwwww.. I wanna go on a photo-trip too!!!!
If it is ever a backpacking or paddling trip in Western Canada that strikes your fancy, just give me a call. :)

<random mutterings regarding costs of flights>

[Athena]

flights cost as much as L lenses... (muttering along with you)

[Pete]

Hmm.. Granted... But L lenses last longer... ;)

[Athena]

I was referring to my own expenses. ;)

You know - like what I could have had for the price of 4 roundtrips. :shock:

Tsunami warnings for your other homeland...big quakes in Indonesia. :(

[BearLeeAlive]

But....Lenses do not last as long as the memories. ;)

Hmmm, I guess that depends on how old you are. :lol:

[Athena]

Tsunami warnings for your other homeland...big quakes in Indonesia. :(I was just reading about that. It seems Indo and Malaysia are at odds as to whether or not there should be a tsunami warning right now. Indo called it off, Malaysia says they have detected a 1-3 meter wave. An update from them should come very soon now.

Mike is back home, but he's not in harms way. We are well north of the coast. More danger in our region right now from monsoonal flooding.

[3Turner]

OMG!! I had to just share this HILARIOUS video with you guys....a coworker emailed it to me. Supposedly its Trojans newest commercial, but I don't know....all I do know is that I had never before seen it and LMAO!

Eli was not too excited. He had been out all day and it rain a great portion of it so after galloping through the house many time he was ready for bed.

That all seemed so. . .random.

When it comes to reading things in colors, it gets kinda slow going. I can barely make any sense out of blue writing. just looks like squiggles unless I concentrate really hard. Other colors are perceived similarly but blues are the worst.

How many post per page do you have? I have 50 set in my user cp and there were only 2 pages....so for me it was at about post 25 where the OP stopped and then tried to edit his posts, then tried to delete the thread until a mod took care of it.

The writing is difficult to see sometimes. I have trouble also....one way I get around it is to click and highlight to read and move on.

The concert was incredible. VERY very good! It was more like a rock concert than a country one.

We had a blast, lots of laughing, didn't get home till about 4 AM.

I took the little snapper with me so I got a few pics. It doesn't do real well in low light. :? Oh well.

No, people were holding up signs and stuff, and a few people close to the stage were holding up photos for autographing.

We had a moment.I bet that 'moment'...he was thinking "wow, finally there is a pretty, refined, woman at the concert that won't get me thrown in jail if we went out for coffee.":D Don't tell the hubby though...he may get jealous that the fiddler was eyeing you.

That fiddle player made serious eye contact with me. We had a moment.

I'm sure it meant as much to him as it did to you Cat.

My Olympus arrived today!! YAY! Battery is charging. What size card do you use on yours Cat?

[cfpackerfan]

I'm sure it meant as much to him as it did to you Cat.

My Olympus arrived today!! YAY! Battery is charging. What size card do you use on yours Cat?YAY!! (Is it the bronze one? I love the color of mine)

I use a 1G card. I think even on the best JPG setting, it still holds an astronomical amount of pics. Like 500-600 or around there.

[Skrim17]

It is all silver and he sent along a 2 gb card. It definitely shows some wear but I don't care.

[Skrim17]

I was taken aback at just how small it is! He sent a little lowepro case for it as well which is great cause I can strap it to the shoulder strap of my backpack.

I'm not allowed. However, after reading subsequent posts, I've decided that I really didn't want to go see anyway.

Fantastic stuff Dan :D My favorite is the sand dollar. That one is wall worthy. Along with the great Haystack reflection!


Woah!!!!


Very nice, Dan.

I agree. Beautiful stuff.

Thanks, All.

It's true. Trust me. I think I drooled once. :lol:

Yup. I needed to know that.

I sincely hope that you made it back home without flinging your knickers on stage!!

Wait, let me think..... Nope, I don't think I could ever be induced to tossing my knickers at anyone.

Ding, ding, ding. Lisa is the High Priestess of Therapeutic Money Spending.

Just ordered Eli some new tap shoes of course he outgrew his others over the summer, by a full size and width! We signed him up at a new school where there are more boys in the class.

Just to show her, I've been eating lousy food. Teach her to leave me alone. Yeah!

[cfpackerfan]

Speaking of food (:rolleyes:) This site was linked to in another thread here, and I've gone through almost all of the recipes so far. Not only do they all sound fabulously delicious, but this lady is hilarious.
