Olmeda de la Cuesta. La casa de los Tuberculosos (España)
Olmeda de la Cuesta. La casa de los Tuberculosos (España) Viajando sin un rumbo fijo como en muchas ocasiones, fuimos a parar a un pueblo junto a la carretera, de esos que pasas a la velocidad que te permite el Código de la Circulación... es decir, a toda mecha. Sin embargo es ver cuatro ladrillos tirados en medio de… -
Suggestion for travel lens
I’m going to be going to Norway for a couple of weeks this summer. Given that I will be using public transportation (train, ferry, commuter flights, maybe a bus or two) to visit different locations I’m thinking that I need to take less camera gear than usual. I have already cut down what I take when I am flying to a… -
Camera backpacks for air travel (and day hiking)
Is anyone familiar with the F-stop Kashmir and Guru? Either would hold the camera gear I take with me when I travel, but the Kashmir is 1.5” longer in the largest dimension. Kashmir: 20.5”x12.5”x11” (52x31.8x27.9 cm); Guru: 19”x12”x10.5” (48.3x30.5x26.7 cm). I would probably take a 13” laptop in the backpack, but could… -
UWA FX Full-Frame Back to Back Sigma 12-24 vs Sigma 15-30
I just moved up to a D700 and sold my Tokina 12-24mm DX lens that I was using with my D200. To replace that, I wanted a non-fisheye ultra wide full frame zoom. My budget pointed me in the direction of two choices and I picked up very clean copies of both to compare before deciding which one to keep. 1) Sigma 12-24mm… -
memorial service (large post)
Recently, our church family and community suffered a shocking and devastating loss. A husband and father of four young children was killed when the private plane he was piloting went down while he was flying to his uncle's funeral. The co-pilot passenger also died. The pilot and his family are woven into so many areas of… -
Black & White Conversions
I have had a number of people ask me how I do my B&W conversions. B&W conversions: 1. First I load the images into Lightroom (really an amazing B&W tool). 2. I put the image in grayscale mode. 3. Then I usually do some minor adjustments with the tone curve tool to increase contrast. Don't overdo it - too many people overdo… -
FS: D200 and all accesories
Hi all, Life dictates I must get rid if my D200 and all the peripherals as well. So here's the deal. All the below items are in MINT condition. No scratches, dings or dents. I'm not going to say, "like new" or "mint" in every description just to spare you the long read :) I'll provide close up shots of anything you would… -
Smuggy falls into a volcano
... or the less dramatic title, "SmugMug's 2011 Trip to Yellowstone and Tetons NP." :lol3 Once a year (roughly) we all try to get away, work from someplace pretty and get face time with our coworkers who don't live anywhere near California. This year we set up shop in Jackson, WY which to some folks meant alpine slides,… -
A Trio To Really Savor
Few individuals have had a greater impact on auto racing in this country than Frank Kurtis ( 1908 - 1987 ). And I'm willing to bet that most folks have never heard his name. He came out of Colorado and started making his first imprint on the racing scene in the early 30's. By the time he retired, he had become a true giant… -
