    Creating Wall Calendars from Scratch

    I am working on a fund raising project for church and would like to create a wall calendar. Initially I was going to use Costco, but after reading some of their reviews, the main photos are @ 6x9 inches after factoring in the templates. They don't appear to offer calendars without templates. The...

    Sky overlays

    Have any of you ever used sky overlays, and if so, what ones can you suggest? Or do you only use your own? I always have photos that can benefit from them.

    Content-Aware Crop coming soon

    PCC will be adding a new feature at some point in the future. It's called Content-Aware Crop, and you can see how it automatically fills in the edges after straightening.

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    Here are a couple more from this afternoon. This was William Penn's house built in 1683 that provided a nice place to get away from the hot city of Philadelphia during the summers. It sits along the Delaware River (which is behind where I was standing). Climbing the steps and turning...

    Went in search of a scene that would work for the May monthly contest (wide angle lens using either leading lines, rule of thirds, diagonal lines, etc). Not sure if I will use this for the contest. It is one of the enormous trees on the grounds of Pennsbury Manor--William Penn's former estate.

    Here is another shot of the algae in the Delaware Canal (along with quite a bit of trash). :(

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    Sometime within the past couple of months, there was a local article about dead fish in the southern end of the Delaware Canal. I thought they were supposed to allow fresh water into this entire southern end. Not sure if it happened here. Although I didn't see any dead fish, there are quite a...

    SanDisk now owned by Western Digital?

    I went to the SanDisk web site looking for SDHC info. On their home page, it mentions Western Digital Welcomes SanDisk to its Family of Brands and links this article...

    I used this image in the May monthly challenge. It's something I've wanted to photograph for a while, but it tends to be completely in shadow most of the time. Guess my timing and the angle of the sun during this time of year were right for once! ;)

    Post your Selfies

    I haven't done a selfie in years. Oh how I dislike cellphone selfies due to their distortion, but it was quick. And what a weird reflection of the car's dash in my glasses. :beguiled: It's really an example of how NOT to do a selfie! ;)

    How to do this?

    I am finishing up the last two drama production photos that I will photograph for my local high school's drama department. Since it takes a lot of time and commitment to do it, I won't be involved with them anymore. They have been an absolutely stellar organization, and it was my involvement...

    Another one from this afternoon. An aqueduct carries the Delaware Canal over Brock Creek--in Yardley, PA. The Yardley Grist Mill is visible in the background. If I had taken a tripod, I would have used my 10-stop ND filter. This was handheld which I don't do all that often (tend to use a tripod...

    It seems when I have time to photograph this bridge, either the sky is completely blue without any trace of clouds, or it is overly cloudy with little trace of shadows on the bridge. It was still a nice day to be outside. :encouragement:

    Reflector Boom Arm & possibly a light stand

    Charlie, I ordered this from Amazon. Looking at differences between the Amazon photo pictured and one shown on B&H made by Avenger, mine looks like the Avenger one. It has pliable rubber grips that hold the reflector. Does yours look like this one, or does yours have actual clips? Avenger RH353...

    Last evening I returned to the church to photograph the Men's Bible Study. One of the men asked if the etched glass panels would be good for a background so we decided to take the photo there. Since I wanted to check my exposure ahead of time, I took a few test shots before the men came over...
