#41 suggestions appreciated
New Dgrinner here. When I read about the challenge last week I immediately thought of this tree in town which has been being covered in shoes over the last 15 years. I have been trying to wrap my head around how to shoot this. Issues are it is in a canyon area and only gets light in the morning, has a large retaining wall… -
Two from Saturdays Oakland U vs Valpariso U
First was an oops I ended up liking because of the way it worked out.. My shutter speed got knocked up to 1/400 when I put my camera down during a timeout. Shot this and noticed shutter speed was wrong, corrected and kept shooting. On second look though I really like the way the lights are only really lighting the… -

Re: Tennis ball color theory
LAB & Tennis ball color theory I missed an important point. It turns out that the color sampler measurements in LAB are very interesting: * Dog ball: L=69, A=-8, B=28 * New ball: L=91, A=-15, B=41 These numbers show conclusively that the new ball is not only brighter than the dog ball (L) but also both more green (A is… -
Re: 2 Q's - Passwords and Setting up a links page
You can only set passwords at a gallery level - but if you put the same password on all of the galleries within your Family category then the viewer will only be asked to enter it once. You can create a links page by creating an html-only gallery. No photos, and you put your links in the gallery description. See # 41 in… -

Re: Advice on greater Chicago area locations
Really depends what type of scene you're looking for: rural, naute, urban etc. The Botanic Gardens as mentioned are a nice place for plants and some birds. Also try the Morton Arboretum as it's much larger than the Botanic Gardens. The lakefront in general offers unlimited photo ops as far as you can go north or south of… -

Re: show us your fall colors!
Actually the chick flick was "The Bridges of Madison county" but it was in Iowa. I live in Indiana. That's a different state that begins with an I to you right coasters. :D Parke county is about 25 mile north of my home, and claims 32 existing covered bridges - most of which are in use by traffic every day. Putnam county… -
Re: SSL's for custom domains
I did a bit more checking, and I am not completely clear how all these things relate. I did a search for "fort myers miracle photography" (the "miracle" is the local minor league baseball Twins affiliate I shoot for a bit). Now the good news is I was ranked first (but the per link data showed DA=22, PA=1). The interesting…
