Nikon D70S
Hey folks...just curious about something. I normally shoot in manual mode...but I ran a test the other day to see how the camera would respond. I shot in full auto mode and copied all the exif settings (exposure, compensation etc) to manual and shot the same object under the same light with the same on-board flash but the… -
Biking in Puglia, Italy, Part 2
18) The end of the world: Santa Maria Leuca, the southeastern most point in Italy, where the Adriatic meets the Ionian Sea. The very end of the heel of the boot. 19 & 20) Puglia’s answer to California’s Highway 1: this is the one and only road that runs along the eastern coast of Puglia. It is somewhat hilly, doesn’t… -
Re: Winners: Mini-challenge #67 -- Humor
Thanks for a sweet Christmas present! What a nice surprise to come home to, after a long weekend trip to DC (home of the "National Christmas Tree," among other sights). DGrin was my first stop online to decompress after traveling, and I'm still grinning from ear to ear at the news. :D Thanks everyone for the kind comments… -
Re: How to Get to The Next Level?
That's a given. Obsolete is probably to strong a word for five years out on better gear. Showing a little age, yes. 1. Get a workflow. 2. I personally prefer raw and create my own JPGs instead of letting the camera do it. See http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=160124&highlight=raw+processing 3. Since you don't have that… -
Re: JPEG/RAW for weddings
I'm certainly not the most experienced person around here but I will make a couple of comments on the jpg vs raw thing, and more importantly (to me anyways) backing up files. It just seems foolish to me to not take advantage of the raw files. If there was a dissadvantage other than storage then maybe, but there isn't. How… -
Re: >>> challenge 18 - comments and critiques thread <<
I like this a lot, but agree with Eric that we can make it jump with a little post work. How about this version: * Adujstments->Shadow/Highlight. 19/31/85/0... Color correction +20, clipping both .01 This brings up the details in the water and person. * Mode->LAB * Adjustments->Curves Here are the curves I used: What's… -
Re: Clients login/varies by computer
Nope, it doesn't work in any circumstance. The Clients link in your sidebar is literally just a link to this folder: http://www.soniphotography.com/Clients . If you right click on the Clients link, and click "open in new tab", it'll go straight to that folder. And since your client galleries are all Public, they all appear… -
Re: The Queen Mary
Fair enough :) The Queen Mary was, for its time, the largest and fastest method of transportation across the Atlantic Ocean. Originally running as a passenger liner and mail transport from 1936 to 1939, she was painted entirely in grey to become the Grey Ghost, a troop transport, from 1939 to 1945. After the war was over,… -
A Trio To Really Savor
Few individuals have had a greater impact on auto racing in this country than Frank Kurtis ( 1908 - 1987 ). And I'm willing to bet that most folks have never heard his name. He came out of Colorado and started making his first imprint on the racing scene in the early 30's. By the time he retired, he had become a true giant… -
Smoky Mountain outting.
Last weekend my friend Steve and I had planned a trip to the UP of Michigan to photograph migrating birds of prey that gather there on their migration north. The trip was planned, bags were packed, coolers were filled and snacks prepared. Then Mother nature dropped 31 inches of snow in a 2 day period with another 12…
