DSS 82 - Please help me decide: Flowers or Diner
Here are my options for entries to this challenge. First, there are photos of Gott's Roadside diner in the Napa area. I finally got around to editing the raw files. Then I have a couple of ways of presenting hydrangea blossoms with this theme in mind. It is unlikely that I'll have any fresh shots or time to do much in the… -
Re: Help! 5th grade basketball photos!!!
Hi Nicki, I too wrestle with kids basketball. So far, the best bang for the buck that I have found is the 50mm f1.8 lens. I got it for $82 on Amazon. You have to be right near the action but if you can get there, it's really helped me a lot. I have a Canon XSi. In most gyms I have to shoot at 1600 ISO and just get by with… -

My Favorites Sorry for not whittling it down to only ten, but I am visiting friends this weekend and don't have much time - plus whittling it down to ten is the judges burden, not mine!

Re: Canon 50mm f/1.2L
Nice to see a much more reasonable thread here. FM is kind of going berzerk over this lens...though it is funny to read. Considering the 85/1.8 vs 85/1.2 prices, the 50/1.2 price seems about where you'd expect. I probably won't get one since for that money I can get a lot more use out of the 70-200/2.8IS on my wish list.… -
Re: Bugs by the river
What angles do you use for the sbr200's? Using just one I placed it at 12 o'clock position, but generally with two I position them at 10 o'clock & 2 o'clock positions on the SX-1. The 180mm lens has an 82mm thread, so I got a 82-77mm step down adapter to allow me to mount the SX-1. I've not had this lens very long, but… -
Re: > The Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenges - General Discussion
There been several rounds recently that I have agonized over how to define what a border is and how it should be qualified or disqualified. This round (#82) has been no exception. I have decided going forward, that this is the new rule regarding borders/frames: Borders/Frames: You may use a simple border of a single color… -

Re: Canon 40D — alternative kits
The 17-55MM F2.8IS is a dream to use. I was scared I would regret spending that much $$ for a "normal" zoom, but it has impressed me every time I have used it. Definately worth every penny!!! For budget, I would consider this lens with the 30D instead of the 40D. Date Modified 2008-01-06 09:57:46 Date Taken 2008-01-05… -
Re: Mobile theme modification
What I was trying to do was hide the third column when the screen width is less that 1000px, but that does not seem possible. As you can see "sm-page-layout-row yui3-g" is the area corresponding to the entire menu bar. Under that are three DIVs which hold the columns (logo, navigation, social icons). They all have the same… -
my 1982 Maico
I purchased this 1982 Maico at Vintage Days at Mid Ohio last month. I plan on rejuvenating it. finding a big hill to bump start it on. a big field with no rocks or trees. and changing the earths roation by attempting a 3rd gear hole shot. until that time its a whole lot of fun to just sit and stare at and the lines are…
