Re: Fixing reflections on glasses
Hamster, I have a gentle suggestion. As you have learned, sometimes, fixing images in Photoshop is no bed of roses. The next time you photograph your son, try keeping the following secret in mind. You are going to be shooting more shots of him as he continues to grow up, so the problem might recur. The secret to lighting a… -

Re: tele for 40D?
My "travel" Canon tele-zoom is the EF 70-200mm, f4L IS USM. Almost a perfect lens for outdoor daylight it also does well for indoor with flash (especially if the flash has a focus assist).

Re: Upgrade Me (Printers)
Re Scanners I bought an Epson V600 just before Xmas to start a project of scanning old 35mm slides and old prints. At the time I also considered the Canon 9000F and the Epson V500. They are are selling for around $200 to $230 CAD in my area. Both the V600 and the 9000F use a LED technology which gives faster scanning (no… -

An Old Cowboy's Last Ride
Tom Mix was one of Hollywood's brightest stars during the 20's, 30's and 40's. He was the reigning star of western films all of that time.

Painfully slow (Overseas) For the past 24 hours, the site has been painfully slow. I am not writing for myself, but also on behalf of all my buddies here in HK who have signed up to smugmug due to my recommendation. It takes over a min for the site to respond at times. And sometimes, simply time out. I know overseas… -
Routing issue/trouble connecting to smugmug
At the office today I was unable to connect to dgrin, my smugmug site or www.smugmug.com. I tried a couple of times over a few hours and didn't get anywhere. A few minutes ago, I noticed I was having no trouble at all. I tried it again through a VPN to my office--couldn't reach smugmug or dgrin. Here's a traceroute from my…
