    My take on Degeneration...

    This week's photo theme reminded me of a photo I shot back in August - too old to fit within the rules of the contest - so I thought I'd post it here for critiquing.

    Light meter recommendations?

    Can anyone recommend a digital light meter that won't break the bank? For the sake of the discussion, my budget is $250, give or take. Going to be playing with some strobes in a home studio shortly, and would like to have a meter. I realize I can use the histogram and dial it in that way...

    Backups..

    Backups.. the 'dirty word' :) I'm an IT guy, and have been for going on 15 years now. I realize the importance of a good backup strategy, as I've had to recover my fair share of failed systems. Up until recently, backups hadn't been a huge concern for me - but my recently purchased D700 has...
