    Were copyright settings changed?

    I uploaded a few photos as attachments but am not able to right-click and open them in a new tab. I don't have any settings enabled which prohibit copyrighted photos from being displayed this way, and it used to work for me. Have settings behind the scenes been changed? It used to be if you...

    It's time for golf - Post your golf shots here.

    I wasn't sure where to post these as there aren't too many golf threads. These are from a small golf course--it's my understanding that the land was once used to divert runoff from the local parking lots then the land was purchased to build a golf course. In the past couple of years, there has...

    Self Portrait

    Nice selfie, Scott, although I didn't recognize you without your hat! ;) Also not a selfie from several years back--a simple point-and-shoot (not even a Nikon :(). Unfortunately I don't know how to fix my dog's eyes. She developed cataracts before she died, and the flash would just bounce right...

    Star photography on a whole other level

    Is it just me, or does anyone else see 1/2 a face on the left hand side of this photo--one eye that is closed, part of a mustache, lips, and a beard?

    lens advice for D610

    Stephen, I'm not @BackdoorHippie, but I don't think that is the kit lens he mentioned. I *think* this is the one he meant which is the US warrantied model: Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR Lens 2204 B&H Photo Hopefully Jake will respond so you'll know for sure. I've seen some photos...

    Again, Spots-o-rama

    I dealt with their New York office; however, I'm not sure which office @VectorZ used--although I *thought* his was LA.

    The hardest thing about not being a "real" photographer...

    We really don't know how others are seeing our work. What you *should* consider doing is to calibrate your monitor so you can accurately tell whether an image is properly exposed. A correctly exposed image may not look good on someone else's non-calibrated monitor, but we don't have control over...

    Do you set hyperfocal or focus a different way?

    And to @BackdoorHippie, one thing I will definitely check out after I download that app will be to apply it when I take the high school's theater photos. I'll need to determine my distance (*maybe* 60 feet--an estimated guess), but because my ISO is high for the low light, I tend to use f/2.8 up...

    Double camera carry?

    Jake definitely didn't look weighed down during the Princeton walk. ;)

    Do you set hyperfocal or focus a different way?

    For those who use a wide angle lens for landscapes, how do you tend to focus? Do you set the lens to focus manually by setting it to hyperfocal or do you focus part way into the scene with auto focus or manual focus? And do you ever use f/16 or smaller apertures? (Yes, I know the smaller...

    You got wintertime? Well lucky you - look at this!

    Very interesting!!! Thanks for sharing--maybe @Marcel will want to give it a try with all the ice they've been having up there!

    D90 Pics

    Re: D90 pics Here are a few more taken with my D90. Entrance to William Penn's house--Pennsbury Manor View from the top of Bowman's Hill Tower​. It was a hazy day, and despite using a UV filter, I wasn't able to reduce the haze in post. Here is Bowman's Hill Tower where I took the...

    Roys better late than never thread.

    Roy, I only found 3 of the 4 that MikeW found. If you look closely at both of our photos, it almost looks like there is a circular splotch on the sensor. So I've got to ask...did you clean the sensor with some type of sensor wand and go in a side-to-side motion, or did you go in a circular...

    Observing others' rules when photographing

    Reading through a different thread, one of the OP's comments really struck me...he wanted a quiet shutter because he was requested not to photograph during a ceremony (wedding I think) but apparently wanted to take photos on the sly regardless of the church's rules. There is a photographer...

    Roys better late than never thread.

    Oh no! What you are describing is what happened to me while trying to clean my D600's sensor. If you do more than one wet cleaning in a sitting, make sure you keep changing the wand during the successive wet cleanings so you don't recontaminate the sensor in another area with a dirty swab. If I...

    Canon Photo Printers

    After asking about a Lightscribe DVD burner, @BackdoorHippie mentioned there are some printers which can burn an image to the top of a DVD/CD. Epson makes some, but since I am quite happy with my current Canon printer, I am looking at getting another made by them. Is anyone familiar with...
