I just finished the rough edit of it about 10 minutes ago...but it is destined to go on linen paper....

That is a really really good one Wool. I have seen a whole lot of wall hangers from you the last few weeks. Do you have plans for a gallery showing?

Really nothing on the table until next spring...I have an offer for a show in NY and one in Orlando...and I am working on getting a local show but no confirmed time frame. I do have a small showing here at home in January...for a couple of local charities.

I was shocked to see we moved!

Good Morning Fine People
Glad to see the move went well, good job Chris.

I have to be a construction worker today, I at least need to get all the exterior wiring done as some siding work is going to be done early next week. The stucco and stone work may have to wait until spring, though we keep getting some pretty decent weather for this time of the year.

No worries. The camera captures 255 shades of light. Because you are taking pictures of a black jeep against white snow you will probably only be using about 20 of those shades. Unfortunately it will be the 10 on the extreme left (blacks) and the 10 on the extreme right (whites).

Additionally the camera tries to make everything 18% grey. Meaning it will try to underexpose the snow by about 1 1/2 stops making it grey rather than white.

The camera can only capture about 5 1/2 stops of exposure. But your scene may have 7 stops due to the extreme black and white subjects. So you will have to cheat a little to get all of the information.

What all that means for you is to expose the image slightly to the right. But don't clip to much of the right or you won't be able to recover the highlights. Try exposing off of the snow then add about 1 1/2 stops and you should be about right.

Sorry I'm behind it took a while to right all this nonsense.

Hi Eric, welcome aboard. Though I pretty much knew what you said here, you explained it to my own wee mind much better then I could myself.

Still lovin' that photo Chet. It would make a hilarious avatar.

Colourful shots there Paula, Mike and Dan.

G'MAE Friends! See ya'll moved after I fell asleep! I tried so hard to stay up for the move!

Looks like I missed some great art and very awesome pet wall hangings!

Well I'm of to fix breakfast for the kiddos... I suppose I will try to find some mediocre art for the walls... it's all I've got

So, I'm going to finally be taking some senior pics of my daughter tomorrow. But she has a black jeep and wants them taken in the snow. Anything special I need to know for that?

Have fun, try shots at various exposures or bracketing. Have your daughter take a couple of changes in clothes at the very least tops.

Okay, here's some fall color in my yard from last week.

Beautiful light, what kind of tree has purple leaves? Also love the trunk and shape of your tree.

Wool, I'm at a lost of words on how gorgeous this is. Should be stunning on linen.

While you're at it, time for a progress update, photo wise, pretty please.

G'MAE all. Best laid plans to have the CD's for tonight ready by this morning didn't happen. So I'm home burning CD's while Curt is pulling signs. It is a typical moist windy cold November day, but; I was looking forward to some together time with Curt. Oh, well, maybe tomorrow.

I've got noth'n new, how about something seasonal, though?

Oh very nice Becky!

Thanks, Chet.

Bummer on the not getting to spend time with Curt! I imagine with the election and shows you've been shooting it's been quite hectic and not much time together! Hope you guys can squeak out some time this weekend!

Lovely wall art Becky!

Nice harvest Becky, the last one is striking!

Thanks, Jenn.

I did inform Curt this morning, that dinner will be dined out, tonight. Since we are selling the CD's from 4:30 to 7:00 at the cast party. I really don't want to come home and cook, nor do I particularly want Skateland pizza.

Thanks, Mike. It also hangs on my wall at work, hmmmm, come to think of it, all three of these do.

EDIT: Nope, this is the corn on the office wall. I think
