Re: Recovering highlights with shadow/highlights
This is an image of Andy's. Originally he processed by converting twice with different ACR parameters and then using a layer mask to blend the two conversions.

Re: Canon 5D / 580EX question
Rainer, Pathfinder is giving you good advice. All digital cameras, or reflective exposure meters, can do is what they are designed to do, and that is to measure the exposure and interpret that measure into a middle gray. You can insist that the camera should give automatically accurate exposure when shooting a white… -
Re: Email
Thanks for the inputs. I checked with my hosting provider yesterday and they confirmed that a lot of organizations are moving to Google Apps for their mail. Apparently it is quite easy to switch the DNS record to point to one host for web sites and another for mail - all part of their service. The 1TB is a lot I know. For… -

Re: Wedding Photography woes :(
What a bummer that your kindness has been taken advantage of. I can almost bet they have more than enough to cover your fees in double, I have found that usually those with more money to spend are the ones looking for ways to screw those that service them. As a resolution.... K.I.S.S. (Keep it Simple Stupid) is a motto… -
Re: Pricing Structure for New (Sports) Photographers
Pricing is a big fat "IT DEPENDS". It depends on YOUR MARKET. I don't mean that just geographically. If you're shooting USA gymnastics events in your area, that's a different market than High School baseball, which is different than travel team soccer etc. I will say this: if you think you're going to drive a lot of print… -
