The wife, Moab Lady, has purchased me a full light kit. She even took me to check it out and make sure it would meet my needs. It was all quite a surprise as she has been really good to me providing me with the tools I need. Immediately I was quite excited as I started to think about how I would...

I'm sure others, and not just me, have received some great offers on software. this might be a great place to post those up and the time-frame if known. Here is one I got for Perfect Resize 9 (old days Genuine Fractal). The offer is 50% off making it $39.95. I personally use this software to...

Loved the lighting and lack of color in this room. The building is a part of a ranch from 1848.

Wendy has won our northern Utah Kelby Photowalk contest. Congratulations Wendy, you must have a really good camera! :)

It was another great year for the annual charity zombie crawl. Temperature and weather were perfect for the dead to roam the streets and not get too chilled. As for the cameras, ISO really got a work out and it really challenges you to work with your cameras auto focus. Here are some of the...

A number of us participated today. So lets post up our photo submission for the Worldwide Photowalk submission. Here is mine. The lights had a cool star effect, no filter was used.

Mystery 6 of 6 Final item. Again, about the size of a large dinner place-mat. We know my father-in-law traveled the world with the navy during the Korean War era. Any ideas?

Mystery 5 of 6 If anyone can translate this I am curious what it says. If not, anyone know what script this is? Information we have... he traveled the world during the Korean war with the navy and stopped everywhere. Only information I have is a tag one that read 14th Century and he paid $40.

Mystery 4 of 6 This item is square and a bit larger than a large dinner place-mat. Expected to have been picked up while my father-in-law was overseas for the Korean War. Up close

Mystery item 3 of 6 This is about the size of a dinner place-mat. Probably picked up while overseas for the Korean war. Any ideas?

Mystery 2 of 6 This item is about the size of a place-mat that you might sit dinnerware on. I apologize for picture quality, but I did not want to remove the items from their sleeves. We suspect this was brought back from when my father-in-law was overseas during the Korean War. Whole item...

My wife MoabLady and I have not been around much. Her father was dying of colon cancer and has finally passed. We had come to terms with it and are happy for him that he has passed as we didn't want to see him suffer. Which now brings me to this thread. My wife and I inherited this book and...

This wasp nest is not artificially colored, nor can I explain the colors. A parent at the school Moab Lady, Wendy, and myself all teach at brought this nest in. It was found abandoned in a tree and I wanted to properly capture it before it eventually falls apart with age.

Anyone heading out for Speed Week? Last year I went and shot vehicles for myself. This year I was invited to come out and shoot to sell which is in great part why I have been absent from the forum so much as of late getting ready to go on the road. If you do come out to Speed Week bring...

Wrapping your head around the crop mode can be difficult. After participating in a thread on choosing a next camera, it was asked if the crop sensor is simply cropping down. Now that is an oversimplification, and there were other questions, so I decided to offer a photo explanation so that it...

I am trying to wrap my brain around Luminosity Masking and am having a bear of a time finding good instruction. Anyone know of any tutorials they really liked that kind of gave them the missing piece of the puzzle that suddenly seemed to make it all go together? Thanks

Tonight, I had planned on catching up my thread now that we have internet. The wife and I are on a photography trip in the great northwest of the U.S. (lower 48 states) and internet and cell phone signal have not quite stayed up to par with many other parts of the county. However, we have real...

Day 1 (Yesterday): MLady went to pick up our road trip econo rental car. Turns out all the $14 econo cars had been rented out so they have us a free upgrade - 400 HP Dodge Challenger muscle car. This is truly significant because I previously had a 1970 Challenger and sadly had to sell it when I...

Anyone shot on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property, you know the land that is supposedly Joe Publics land they manage for us. Apparently you need a special permit for commercial photography on our (their) land. Unfortunately, I have been unable to get any information or response from our...

I have used film camera's as I have plenty of age to have been around, but never a film slr. So what made a good film slr body verse an entry level slr? I ask because as I think about it with digital, a better digital body gets me better ISO noise levels, often times a faster frames per second...
