    This photo was taken on the Muni (subway) in San Francisco Sunday. PS CS strips the EXIF info when I do "save for web." If anyone has a workaround, I'd appreciate the info.

    The old man and woman were trying hard not to notice each other, and i was sure they were going to strike up a conversation by the end of the trip. I guess neither one could get up the nerve to say "hello"

    Please let me know what you think of the shot. I've been doing a lot of reflection & motion shots lately & I'm looking to improve.

    Picture was taken with a D70 & kit lens. Only post processing was crop & curves.

    Thanks,
    Dave

    **Edit**
    I just used the technique provided by andy. I had to convert to 8 bit to get the *.jpg option. Full EXIF is avaialbe at my site http://dkapp.smugmug.com/gallery/136098

    don't do "save for web" instead, choose "save as" give it a file name and location, choose compression of 7 and off you go ;-)


    as benevolent host i don't comment on pics until after the challenge ;-)

    Andy....i have a major problem here. Ever since this title went up...i have had the tune (sesame street, " who are the people in your neighborhood ") in my head for every waking moment. Nothing will shake it...pain killers...eating raw chillies...riding like there is no tomorrow in traffic. NOTHING will stop it.


    Can we choose something next time that has less effect on the ADD guys on the board next time please.

    Man, I am glad I'm not alone. I have had the same problem and it is making my ADD impossible to live with!! At least I know I am not completely "nuts". I guess it could've been worse, like maybe, "It's a small world", that one will make ya totally buggers...

    repeating songs
    i fell your pain.

    do this:

    play "ymca" by the village people, backwards. that will cure you of the two offending songs.

    then, go have a

    "pina colada" and put on some rupert holmes


    hahahahahahhehehehehe

    Oh, how nice of you, now we ADD'ers have two more monotonous tunes banging away in our brains! Good example though of more repititive tunes that you can't get out of your head!

    The backwards part might just work...

    Damonff: Shadow Face is excellent! But so is every shot you post. I like your style and sense of emotion, as well as the extraordinary you find in every day shots.

    I love this shot, but I am not thrilled about the sepia - could we see it in color or as a platinum style toning? I am particularly interested in the original color. Thanks.

    Sippin'
    This is a shot I took at a family wedding last weekend. My grandsons and my nephew were sipping their fruit punch at the bar. I posted it in "other cool shots" first. I'm recovering from my heart attack (see cool shots) so havn't been out and about too much. Sorry I missed out on the voting for "Pathways".

    Manicure
    It feels great to be out again! I can't believe how quickly I get tired though.
    I'm replacing the manicure shot. I thought the light looked like it was coming out of her head. The Starbucks shop is next to nail salon. So, here's a shot from there too. The guy was actually moving. No blur added in post. You know how these guys do three things at once. --This is my first try at linking to Smugmug.

    Great expression!
    Love the expression on Harold. Looks like he's playing golf. Is he?
