Re: selling CDs
I don't usually sell digital downloads or any jpg's of my images. Maybe I am selling myself short when I do this, but I feel that if they really liked an image (this happened around christmas) they will order multiples of it (and if I let them digitally download it, that would only be one sale). But getting back to your… -
Re: Polarizer filter
Good Data I too suffered over whether to get cheapy polarizers or good ones. Same for the UV filters I put over all my glass. I'm a Nikon user so my choices are many. However, I've begun to spend the extra money and get Nikon UV glass. Luckily most of my good glass is all 77mm and the rest are 62 and 52. So I only need 3… -
Treading Water
Spotted this young aphid on top of the compost bin lid tonight - trapped in a layer of rain water and not making much progress. Because of a concrete post (washing line attached to it) I couldn't change the angle and I didn't want to try moving the lid of the compost bin, as that might have made the water run away, and… -
Aransas Wildlife Refuge
Here were a few from Aransas Wildlife Refuge. Any constructive comments are greatly appreciated. 2011-12-29 @ 16-46-45 - IMG_7360.jpg by h-huang, on Flickr 2011-12-29 @ 16-47-27 - IMG_7361.jpg by h-huang, on Flickr 2011-12-29 @ 17-08-31 - IMG_7374.jpg by h-huang, on Flickr 2011-12-29 @ 17-12-33 - IMG_7384.jpg by h-huang,… -
Question about these shots ( Volleyball )
I was asked to shoot the volleyball game the other night. I knew the light would be tough going into this! Some of the shots I really like, but here are a few that I'd like to think I could catch better next time. I didn't do any ISO adjustments, not sure if that would help? I did rapid sport shots, faster exposure, and… -
Re: Best way to travel 6 months...
Mark, I sympathize with your problem and I'd love to help. How about if you send me the expenses and I'll travel for you? Uploading on the road tons of photos doesn't sound like a good idea. I'd prefer to filter the really good ones first, post processing them and only then upload a select batch. I use an XDrive II but for… -

Re: VOTE for winner of DGrin Challenge 77: System
You have to be careful with the numbers. Of the 300 you mention, most are not members and cannot vote. Right this minute, there are 363 people online but only 52 members. Of the registered dgrinners, the majority post once or twice (or not at all) and are not heard from again. A few hundred people seem to account for a… -
Re: Luggage for Camera Gear
Another issue is limits the airlines put on luggage quantity and weight. First, often you can have only one carryon plus purse/personal/computer. Then they charge you for checked bags (or after the first one). And what you may not realize is another thing they have done. I travel from the midwest to a LA once or twice a… -
Re: b&w conv - doing it better
Here is my version. It's difficult to get a contrasty image because the womens faces/eyes are the darkest part and there are alot of mid tones. I used the channell mixer. One trick I've stumbled upon is to use the channels pallete to pick each channel individually and see what each brings to the image. I use this info to…
