    Raw or jpeg

    I truly don't know what they were trying to show. Rereading the article I believe this is what they did, even if it was unintentional... Both images were shot at ISO 3200 with just the body cap on the camera. Native ISO on the Canon they used is 200. So, what they recorded in each case...

    Raw or jpeg

    OK, so I was PM'd and politely asked if I could demonstrate what I mean. Here's are two very underexposed shots taken with my D610 (no scientifically determined under-exposure - the meter was just pinned hard '-'): RAW JPEG In Lightroom I set the Exposure adjustment on each of these...

    February 3 We were told the rain was going to wash all our snow away, so I contemplated setting up a time lapse to watch it go. Glad I didn't waste my time. As the sun was setting the rain on the snow did make for about 30 minutes of very dense ground fog that settled top to bottom instead of...

    February 2 Not as impressive when reduced to 1000px, but I was messing with the 28mm tonight. Here's a 12 image 4x3 frame pano. Some artifacts around the trees I should clean up, but...

    February 1 (and 1/31 leftovers) As the weather warmed here in NJ my wife expressed her inner Calvin yesterday, and nature took its course over night.

    Is This Achievable in Photoshop?

    What you're going to want to do is create a layer mask for the model so you treat the background and the model separately. It's a little more difficult to do on the low res image you posted, but I fudged one (I had to clean up bright spots from the background layer around the hat after the mask...

    January 28 & 29 I hate to have to do this, but the only shooting I did these days had to do with answering questions here, so I'm reposting the pair of images since it technically keeps me alive. I promise to shoot something worthwhile this morning. An iPhone shot showing my improvised pano...

    Interesting strap fixing point

    Pano Photography

    ^^^^ this Great article on panoramas and when & why you need/don't need a pano head. I do 95% of my panos handheld, so investing in a really good head doesn't make sense for me. That said, my MeFOTO Roadtrip already has levelers and degree markings around the base, so I'm covered there. For...

    January 26 I was hoping to give you something a little different today but I wasn't able to get it going thanks to a severe case of after work malaise. Good thing I got these in the AM.

    January 25 A day consisting of massive amounts of snow removal followed by a good dinner and a bottle of wine resulted in my falling asleep on the couch some time around the middle of the first quarter of the NFC Championship game. This precipitated me being wide awake at 3:30AM, so I went...

    January 24 Shoveling out. I could show you boring photos of just how deep the snow was (22") but instead I'll just show you this one, my lovely wife helping clear a path on the deck so we could get to all the feeders.
