    Feedback on 2 macro images

    The other day a neighbor and her husband gave me some roses for my birthday. Since I recently got an Oben rail, I decided to try it for these. The rail worked flawlessly; however, I should have used some type of remote to fire the shutter. Live and learn as they definitely should have been a...

    Feedback on My Offer To Models?

    My CC: I don't know anything about setting up a web site, but I think you need to work on your About page. Below is what I see--I scrolled down the page to take this screen shot. There isn't any way to scroll sideways. The only way I could fit the entire width of the page on my laptop was to...

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    Earlier this week I was asked to take some photos during my church's Youth Group. They met later in the day when the sun started to set. Since the church doesn't often offer evening services, there aren't any blinds or curtains blocking the sunlight. As I headed through the Narthex towards the...

    Computer monitors and monitors for photography

    Here is a somewhat related question: once a monitor is calibrated by whatever means, how should Photoshop's Color Management settings be set? If we want to calibrate for sRGB, what changes should be made to the default settings? I believe these are PCC's default settings for Color Management...

    Where to sell cameras with bellows?

    Yesterday I had a handyman do some work, and when he was getting ready to leave, he saw my camera birdhouse. He said he has some of these old bellows cameras that belonged to his dad and wondered where the best place to sell them would be. Are there any web sites that are particularly good...

    Epson P400 vs Canon Pro-10

    B&H has a sale on a couple of printers. The Canon Pro-10 would cost $249.99 after the rebate and instant savings. The Epson P400 would be $485.82 after the instant savings. Can anyone shed light on which might be the overall better printer based on its abilities? Currently I have a Canon...

    Image insert

    You are in the Basic Uploader. I just switched to it to see what would happen. Couldn't see any way to change it back, but once I closed my browser and came back, this is what I see now. Maybe someone can explain how to switch back if it doesn't automatically do it for you.

    best way to brighten a stone wall

    Okay...you asked. My first thought is to wonder if you are using a calibrated monitor. The colors seem to be too highly saturated for my preference.

    Disastrous Wedding Photos

    Have you seen these :cower: wedding photos? Be sure to see the 3 at the bottom of the page where people have added captions! What surprises me is the photographer received $350 for 800+ photos. Wouldn't that price raise a red flag? Bride Claims Her Wedding Was Ruined by Amateur Photographer -...

    'Mention' notifications haywire?

    In the past couple of days, I've received 'mention' notifications. When I click to access the info, nothing is there yet when reading through the new posts, I find the mentions. @jdeg can you please look into this? And when I did check on the mentions, the following showed up. What the heck...

    Reflector Boom Arm & possibly a light stand

    I went to my local camera store looking for a boom arm to hold a reflector I already own. I walked out with this kit which has more options for reflectors than what I own; however, the handle that tightens and secures the boom isn't the strongest so I want to return this kit. Westcott 5-in-1...

    Letchworth State Park

    My take on it. Initially edited in Camera RAW and used the adjustment brush on some things then sent to PCC and did a little dodging.

    Thanks kindly, Marilynne. Although we've had pets since I was in 3rd grade, it is never easy.

    Macro Diffuser

    When you got your SB-800, did it come with all the accessories? There was a snap-on diffuser that came with it--the SW-10H Diffusion Dome like this one: Nikon SW-10H Wide Angle Flash Adapter (Diffusion Dome) 4320 B&H Everything that came with new DB-800 flashes: What's in the box SB-800 AF...

    Blacktop's 366 day trip through 2016

    Each time I see this it reminds me of a painting from the Impressionist era. Here is a painting by Edgar Degas. You should consider trying the oil paint feature in Photoshop. ;)

    Hark's 2015 and 2016

    Yesterday when I took this photo, I knew Stache wouldn't be with us for much longer; however, he took an unexpected turn for the worse this morning and sadly crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I'm glad I took some pet photos as it isn't something I do often enough. Please be sure to take the time and...

    Will Nikon continue D610 series?

    With the D610 being offered new for such a low price, has Nikon made any decision whether or not there will be a successor to it? Or will the D750 become the entry level FX body? Has anyone heard? I still use mine even though I have the D750.

    Chargers for C or D batteries

    If you use any types of rechargeable C or D batteries, do you use C or D batteries, or do you use the AA eneloop batteries with the C or D spacers? If you use C or D rechargeable batteries, what brands of batteries and chargers are good? I have a Sanyo Eneloop charger for 4 AA batteries which...
