Re: 50 thoughts...
Oh I agree!!! This is definitely not my ENTRY!!! This was just a fishing expedition to see if I was going in the right direction. I totally need a reshoot with a DSLR and a better angle, location and action. I thank you for your responses, however. 141 people before said nothing I think that this challenge is confounding… -
Re: Opinions please - Sony Zeiss 16-80 vs. Sigma 18-50 f/2.8
You might try http://www.photozone.de/sony-alpha-aps-c-lens-tests/141-zeiss-za-16-80mm-f35-45-dt--sony-alpha--review--test-report?start=2 This site, while in the process of redoing their tests for sony alpha, has tests up for the 18-70 and the Tamron 17-50, which I believe tends to be rated a bit better than the sigma… -
Re: Lincoln Woods: Rhode Island's Hidden Foliage Gem
Memory Lane Great shots of a great gem. Your photos brought back fond memories as we often visited Lincoln Woods as undergrads while attending college in Smithfield, it usually was the race track at Lincoln Woods but, frequently we would find ourselves driving down these same roads. Fall certainly is a great season to… -
Re: Turkey Run
I'm no expert, but I do love to mess around in Photoshop. An aged photo doesn't look right in a modern setting, though. So I used another shot of that 1939 Ford and took out the racetrack background and aged it. Actually, a more interesting aged view might be to do this in color, but replicate a faded Kodacolor print. I… -
A Rare And Elegant Cadillac
This is a 1939 Cadillac 75 Series Fleetwood Convertible. The stylized grill, headlights, and many interior design appointments contributed to this car being considered the pinnacle of bold, American art-deco influence in automotive design. This very car was featured in the company's Fleetwood brochure in 1939 where it was… -
Turkey. Ancient Likia. Amphitheatre
Well conserved Amphitheater of Mira (ancient city) in it's time was one of the best examples of antique architecture. The theater was roomy (oh, sorry for my English!) - 35 rows of seats for spectators. The Theater, like the Mira town itself was ruined by the earthquake in 141 A.C. But soon it was reconstructed.… -

Re: Tools for Color Balancing
Cool! Pathfinder, This is cool -- you're obviously being methodical, and getting some interesting results. One thing I've noticed when I've done similar tests is that I'll get a better custom-balance under bright sun than I do under cloudy skies (or other soft-light). I think I see this in your test shots, where the… -
Re: Andy/Baldy - feed me
Whoops, sorry. I must've fumbled the link and sent you to a site that said, "Halleluja!! We are all saved! Amen!" The link I meant to include had hard statistics that none of us would like to believe: "This study, from scientists at the University of Manchester, analyzed 141 articles involving 282,137 cancer cases and 20… -
Re: What flash should I buy?
Actually, the power advantage of the 580 is something just under 1 stop (guide numbers 141' for the 430 vs 190' for the 580). The real advantage of th 580EX II over the others is the quicker refresh rate and, to my mind, a better user interface. In addition, there's the abiltiy of the 580 to control other Canon compatible…
