Man in the oo.... eerrr..... Dune
My attempt at a PJ piece..... C&C welcome... I like dunes. Why? Maybe it’s the wind noise at sunset or the peace at sunrise, the nuances of the color changes at rise and set… Hmmm… it’s hard to explain, like explaining an organism to a virgin… I don’t like footprints on the dunes I photograph…. and that makes it tough.… -
Any RSS Experts Here?
I don't know much about RSS, I'm having intermittent problems with my RSS feeds and I could really use some help from someone who knows RSS. Here's the feed I'm working with: http://api.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=userkeyword&NickName=cyd&Data=tumblr&format=rss200&Size=XLarge&ForceDomain=True If I'm using Firefox and I… -
Dick Smith, gun smith with guns - and The Rest of The Story
As we all know, every photograph has a story behind, beside, or in front of it, which the photo itself never tells. Here's the Rest of The Story for this one. A few years ago, when I was taking a workshop from Eugene Richards at the Maine Media Workshops - the only photo 'course' I have ever taken, on the second day Gene… -

Re: Feature Requests
Hey Allen, I understand the concerns with changing something that has been implemented for quite some time. As an Engineer I love data so I thought I would provide some of the reasons why I've decided to close the Feature Request forum here on dgrin and move Feature Requests to UserVoice (SmugMug Feature Request Page, aka… -
Re: Finally jumping SLR to DSLR, Canon/Nikon or Olympus?
I currently have 2 E500 bodies that I use. The lenses I have are: 14-54mm 2.8-3.5, 40-150mm 3.5-4.5, 35mm 3.5 macro, and the Sigma 135-400mm 4.5-5.6 14-54mm 2.8-3.5 ($420): This lens is fast, extremely well built, and an excellent size. The new 12-60mm 2.8-3.5 ($1000) lens is virtually the same lens with a slightly… -
Re: Help me buy into a system!
Ummmm .... I think I have to disagree wit Chris H on this. It's true that you select the camera body for the type of shooting you want to do. For example, the 5DII would not be a first choice for photographing a football game. With some notable exceptions, you can match the offering of one manufacturer with that of… -
Re: Change in SmugMug URLs for better privacy
1) As a non-pro member, I don't have income riding on this issue, but I can imagine how I would feel if a 12-year old with Firefox download manager sucked all my photos out of a private gallery without having been given a single bit of information from me. 2) I agree with others that terminology is the enemy here. From my… -
Re: Dispelling some myths about international shipping
DoctorIt and Gus, this conversation interests me quite a bit, maybe you can shed some light on this issues. I live in portugal. Here, everything photo related is stupidly expensive. So, obviously I'd think that buying from the U.S would be cheaper, but when I tried it, I got burned. Just so you understand the seriousness… -
Re: How to buy a new motorcycle: the long way
Day 4 I was pretty excited for this day. I'd get to ride through Petrified National Park and stop at the giant meteor crater!!! Yeah, so much for that... They charge $20 (maybe more, my memory is blocking it out) just to walk in and see it. I'm all for supporting national parks and such, but come on! We paid far less to…
