Re: Don's Daily Dabblings One more from the D3100 August 2011 I had shot these in RAW but did not really have the skills to correct them back then. I am going to have to go back and reshoot this fountain now.

Re: Don's Daily Dabblings uncorrected

The day started off grey and cool but I did have time to go shoot anyway. Had to take the truck in to get something repaired that the Chevrolet dealer caused when they did a $500 repair on it last week. They were rather red faced after I had been telling them all week that it was their fault and...

Great shots again. The reflection in the water shots are very nice. Would have been much nicer without the leash but that is not good for the dog.

A couple of points. If you are shooting indoors with existing light then shoot in RAW + Fine and you can color correct so much better using the RAW. I shot some downtown at night recently and the difference is amazing when you correct the RAW shots. Uncorrected JPEG Corrected RAW

I keep waiting on one of the Floridians to shoot this.

I live in Alabama. For my vacation I think I will start driving North visiting all the Nikonites along the East coast all the way up to Canada. I will spend the day with each one so they can show me all the great sites in their area. Then I will dog sled across Canada and shoot with all the...

Re: Don's Daily Dabblings I have been working on my Photoshop skills recently so I opened one of my favorite old photos I shot with an old Canon POS in 2008. I think the reedit came out pretty good.

Someone reminded me today about mirror lenses and it reminded me that I had a 500mm mirror lens somewhere in my old camera bag. Went back and found it and decided all it would take in a T-mount adapter to hook it up to my D5100. Adorama (HelenOster here on Nikonites) had them for $9 with free...

Re: Don's Daily Dabblings A couple of shots from my afternoon walk.

Re: Don's Daily Dabblings First bloom. These Iris are some that I dug up from my Mother In Laws yard when we were getting it ready to sell. I put them in a plastic bag and was planning to plant them here at home. Well I forgot to plant them and they stayed in the plastic bag over the winter...

Re: Don's Daily Dabblings One more nature shot. The walk I was on was in a very wooded area and the sunlight was filtering in.
