Re: Need Advice on New Body & Lens - Nikon
I have a D300s and a Sigma 70-200 2.8 (older non-OS version.) Mainly I use it to shoot indoor sports like water polo, some concerts, kids' plays, and general family stuff. To some extent I think the answer you're looking for depends on how you prioritize the five complaints in your main post. Here are my thoughts: The… -
Re: Dayton Airshow 2009
Very nice work, Chris! You did a good job dealing with the weather! I've been shooting with the 100-400L for about 4 years now, it's my "go-to" lens for aviation work. You carry it around all day at an airshow, and eventually you get used to the weight, but it's a great lens for that use. On the Thunderbird cross-over, I… -

Smugvault vs.
I am planning to upgrade my offsite storage, to a 'cloud' based solution. Today, my offsite storage involves a 'traveling hard drive' that I use periodically at home, then store at my office. I have been examining other options, and settled on two: SmugVault (basically same as S3/Jungledisk), or Mozy. I would go with Mozy… -
Terre Haute Air Show with the Blue Angels August 2018
I spent Sunday afternoon at the air port watching the 2018 air show. I didn't take a camera bag nor a tripod - it was a hot, very humid, long oppressive day in the sun, and I was not wanting to carry very much, so all I brought was my 7D Mk II and a Tamron 18-300mm zoom - partly as an experiment to see if I could capture… -
Re: customer can't order prints
Cookie-monster empties the smugmug cart Hi Andy . . . it is comforting to hear these words from you. I appreciate the level of service we get from you guys. However, at the moment I'm concerned about "your cart is empty" - cookies issues. I setup a XP virtual machine on my Macbook pro to test my site:… -

Re: DSS #13 Clarity or Diffused Feedback
Here's the feedback from achambers: 4 TheCuriousCamel - HazyDay Good shot, the colors are wonderful. Even thought sunsets/rises are kind of cliche the grass in the foreground sets it apart for me. 6 Divamum - Iced Foliage I really like this image, I can't put a finger on why. There is something compelling about it that… -
Re: Dark skin
The problem with black skin is the variety and range of tones. There is equal variety in caucasian skin but the range is much narrower and the difference tends to be straightforward: magenta and yellow will be proportional throughout the range; the difference will be how far ahead of cyan they run. Pale skin will have cyan… -
