I'm a native Chicagoan and still have family there. @Clovishound Chicago has actually had population growth the last two years with the building trend accelerating. My oldest bought a condo (for way too much money IMO) literally in the center of the Loop, wound up getting a job offer to relocate...

You shoot jpegs? 😜

Newegg is running a special for an annual subscription for the Creative Cloud 1TB package for US$94.99. Use code FTTEU7578 to get the lower price. Link here.

I shoot JPEG+RAW. That lets me easily share a JPEG reflecting a recipe via the X App. I have LrC setup to import without processing and the previews also reflect the recipe. Here is an admittedly crappy set of images in LrC where I was trying 3 different recipes. It is one reason why I have the...

@crashton and I are in a similar situation. I was a long time user of Nikon's and bought my first Fuji in 2015 to have a small travel camera. Ultimately I wound up selling my D800e and settling on Fuji. @Browncoat is spot on with the Picture Controls in Nikon. It takes more work with how Nikon...

B&H has a 6TB Crucial X10 portable SSD on sale for $138 off. Great deal on a portable drive. If I hadn't purchased a 4TB Samsung T9 a couple months ago, I'd be all over it. Link here.

Are you using the "Photo Merge > HDR" option in LrC with bracketed images? If so, make sure that you select “Alignment”. This will low Lightroom to automatically align the images during the merge process, but you can fine-tune the alignment if necessary. The other thing is to try to ensure you...

Last month, Laurie and I were fortunate to go back to the Netherlands during peak tulip season. It was my retirement trip and our second (and third) visit to the famous Keukenhof Gardens. For those who may not be familiar with Keukenhof, each year they hand plant and remove approximately 7...

Thank you!! I'm going to have to share this with Laurie. She is a decedent of William Penn.

By chip to you mean memory card? Is this the message? If the lock won’t stay unlocked, try this workaround but plan on replacing the card.

The iPhone and iPad apps are really great and compliment the desktop and web versions. Take a look at the iPhone screenshots below: Left image is a view of a synced folder with RAW images; center is a sort and selection view where you can tag, rate, etc.; and the right is the edit view with...

I attended a flower focused workshop this past Saturday at Unique Photo in Philly. (GREAT store BTW.) The best part of the event was that Unique had arranged for flowers and lighting to be available to practice technique based on the lecture. The lecturer discussed using a macro lens to capture...

Are you editing on your phone or iPad? For quick edits on my phone, I tend to use Snapseed. For more involved edits on my iPad, I use Lightroom.

I went to annual a couple years ago as well. During black Friday, there typically are deals like this which further reduce the cost. The last two years it was like getting the 1TB version for slightly less than the annualized 20GB monthly cost. I took advantage of the sales the last two years...
