    Hey All, A song that about perfectly - in my opinion anyway - characterizes me. I've always been an always will be a crooked Tree. I wasn't sure whether to post it here or in a trees thread. Molly Tuttle is a guitar hero of mine an Bronwyn's fiddle is outstanding. Enjoy! -Ed-

    Hey All, I have no idea if I can do this or not. I live on Vancouver Island - I go to work in the dark I come home in the dark. That said this year due to an accumulation of vacation I am off till mid Jan except for occasional calls meetings etc. I'm pretty sure I can do a half month for sure...

    Hey All, Lucille you do beautiful car photography! As to your ownership of cars I am genuinely surprised you don't have a 50s car (say a 56 or 57 chevy) or earlier rat rod (32 ford coupe for example) to fit with - as I recall - your like of rockabilly. -Ed-

    How they used to collect hay in the old days

    Hey All, The difference between hay and straw... Well I think most would consider straw to be the over mature stalks of cereal grains and some other crops after the - generally - seed heads are harvested. Hence we have wheat straw, barley straw, oat straw, canola straw, etc. You are right that...

    How they used to collect hay in the old days

    Hey All, Hmmm... I don't understand how that machine fastened to the back of what we in Montana called a hayrack picks up hay unless there are some rotating tines that pickup what passes beneath the horses hooves and hayrack. Or maybe there are guys pitchforking hay onto it so it delivers hay...

    Ever wonder how to properly care for your camera?

    Hey All, :) Jay and Varina Patel are a couple of my favorites - I've not ever bought in but I might at some point from a post perspective. I do need to learn a lot more about translating what I see in my head to an image in post. They are fun to watch and learn from. -Ed-

    Nature Show Landscape

    Hey All, Tdek - another winner. How do you make Hood I'm guessing look that small. But that isn't the point. Imagine a world where CO2 rules fields are barren and trees are as in this image. I know it is unreal but still speaks to me - greatly. I'd be curious to see a couple other processing...

    Nature Show Landscape

    Hey All, This is a gorgeous image - to me. Others may not see it that way but to me the winter starkness and barren trees and the way they juxtapose is outstanding. I've seen this scene in Alberta, Montana, Washington, Oregon - it is timeless - sure some of the detail differ a bit but the...

    Photography, Art and a Different Way of Thinking

    Hey All, Hmmm what to say... Well first Bob Dylan had a hero that he spent years trying to get a discussion about songwriting with. He finally got one - an afternoon in a trailer with him. Dylan's hero was a writer who was a far better songwriter than Dylan ever dreamed of being - and Dylan...

    Christmas break in the Redwoods

    Hey All, Nice set! I went to college at Humboldt a bit further south in Arcata. Spent 6 and a half years there getting 3 degrees - one was in forestry and so spent lots of time measuring redwoods. Also spent lots of time where you were especially at Prairie Creek where those elk were. Have you...

    Fuji It's official: NO OIS for 16-55 f2.8 WR

    Hey All, Just crank the ISO. To me these super fast lenses are often just hold-overs from the days of film when low light capability meant faster lenses since films were not that fast. Today's cameras have phenomenal low light capability due to improvements in ISO performance. About 7 8...

    My screwy theory of photographing the grandeur of the skies

    Hey All, I think Mattea has it right. I was raised in Big Sky Country (you can figure out where that is). A big sky at a small scale is a small sky - no matter what you do. You want big sky - display big - stiching or lots of mega pixels. Look at your small image on a typical computer...

    Hey All, Good Luck to All! If J stood for June or July I'd give this a go since I just found out I have 100 megs here. Going to work in the dark (turning to day as mornings (sunrise) change faster than nights (sunset)) and coming home in the dark pretty well rules me out. I could do at least...

Yet the population of the earth is well over 7 billion headed for at least nine billion. Everybody...

    Hey All, I'll take a shot here. First landscapes are hard to get right. I really like the subject matter. In this case I think the time of day is great. I think it expresses a reality. It may be a little overexposed - sort of ETTR - but maybe not. I don't know if you intended that level...

    Hey All, Interesting - so a Leica lens would be junk? :rolleyes::rolleyes: I'm just kidding. I'm always curious about raves over a lens or brand of lens as my opinion is that photographic technique, sensor and perhaps especially processing can "overrule" any lens characteristics other...
