Re: Does the Camera make the difference or the lens?
No offense to Canon or Nikon APS-C but neither will give you a "special" look. I am not saying they can not create great images but as far as the sensor goes you are getting pretty standard results which is a good thing. Some cameras have specific advantages: Olympus bodies will give you great color. Fuji will give you… -
Re: Wedding Shots/Color Correction
Dan Margulis compares it to the game of bridge. You have to gather up all the clues you have and put together a picture. If there is a a spot that you know should be white, that's a huge clue, probably the most important one you can have. But you also know that tuxedos are black, for example. Stop lights are red. Sky might… -
Re: Is there "permanent" auto focus
Some Canon camera/lens combinations have a "lens" feature which allows the photographer to temporarily override autofocus by pushing a button on the lens. Primarily this is on very long lenses and I believe that you primarily use the button so that if you know that a foreground component moves between you and the subject… -
Re: A Trip Too Small: Fiji, New Zealand, and Some More
The north end of the South Island has a few beaches on it that are great tourist destinations. The one we had seen postcard-worthy photos of was Wharariki Beach near the Farewell Spit, so we headed north early in the morning to catch a 7:00am low tide and found ourselves traversing a very nice trail through some beautiful… -
The Road From Zion
Vacation day in Denver. The wife awoke at 3:00am in Florida. She was snowed out of Denver for 2 days forcing us to cancel one day of the trip to Utah. Her airplane landed at 9:00am and were on the road in no time, the wife packed in the back seat asleep. We took to the road in east Denver in overcast skies. No time to stop… -
Jones Beach Air Show
The annual Jones Beach Air Show was held on Long Island over Memorial Day weekend. While the actual air show is Saturday and Sunday down at the beach, it's nearly a week-long event for me, and sometimes I don't even get down to the beach for the show itself. Most of the participating aircraft stage out of nearby Republic… -

Re: Mini Challenge #303: "Devices indicating the time, or the passage of time"
I am entering the three clocks that I think have the most interesting stories * Bromo-Seltzer Tower Clock Acetaminophen, sodium bicarbonate, and citric acid is a combination taken to relieve pain caused by heartburn, sour stomach, or acid indigestion. The acetaminophen is a pain reliever. The sodium bicarbonate is an… -
Re: LPS#8 feedback thread
Mine in order of submission are: #2-Big Bang Redux (PaulThomaMckee): Great DOF and color. It is the best of the flower images, given the theme. Maybe it's the Irish in me and those look like Shamrocks. #13-Sugar Rush (Pat664422): While it seems kinda obvious (like the fireworks entries), I like the sharpness, DOF, and…
