Windows has some useful features, but i learned the hard way that File History wasn't one of the best decisions i've made. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Shame on me for not paying closer attention to how it was storing the files i was backing up. I just kept using it without paying...

Always had a hard time with stuff like this and hoping i can get some clarity as to what i have going on here. Lots of data getting built up and need to figure out what is necessary and not. Have a new computer coming and figured this would be a good time to tackle the things i have put off...

Haven't been doing much shooting lately. Mostly hunting all fall. Sister sends me an email today. Their software company needs new group shots as well as individual head shots. So that would be around a dozen for the one group shot. Another group of 4 of the reps. Then headshots...

</title> <title>SunsetWx Would have worked last night here. :rolleyes: Looked out the window right before dark and was one of the best sunsets in a very long time. Checked this site and would have gone if known about it. Appears they have some degree of accuracy with it.

Without a doubt it's an adventure trying to find my way in the world of digital photography. It's all good when put into perspective, but some of the struggles that come along can be a real nag. With post processing becoming more important to me also comes the question of whether the final...

I don't really know what i'm doing on this subject. I purchased a 3 TB WD hard drive over the summer to protect my images. All i did was copy and paste folders into the drive a couple times. Now,,,,things are looking difficult as i have added to old folders, changes to some, etc. So it...

Did anyone else see her documentary (Grab a hunk of Lightning) on PBS? As a photographer to describe to another photographer i don't even know how to describe except to say you really should see it.

So i'm trying to get some prints made. I thought i had it ready, but looking at the file sizes i started to get concerned. I exported from lightroom at 100% as jpegs. I thought that was correct? They range from 4 - 18 mb in size. But,,,, there are a few that are 1.9 mb and they were...

Never had a print made since film days. No idea how it works with these companies online. Was thinking of getting some landscapes printed from Nations - as i have a potential source to possibly sell a few. Was thinking about getting maybe a dozen prints in 8x10 but not sure where to go from...

Lr 6 stand alone lacks the whites / blacks in adjustment brushes, so i was looking online and there seem to be some brushes. I miss not having those two so i downloaded some freebies today and hope to check them out in a day or so. Not much of a fan of normal presets but the brushes sound...

I edit and enjoy my photos then export as jpeg and view in windows photo viewer and am always disappointed. Always a noticeable difference in sharpness. Nothing i seem to be able to do about it. Do you use windows photo viewer or figure out how to make them look like they do in Lr using...

Just ordered a stand alone copy of Lr6. :) Most here don't have satellite internet (evidently) and probably don't have limits on monthly data usage so it may be difficult to understand why i'm so happy about this! Even as much as one update can run me out of badwidth for the month. My...

I just received the Tokina 11-20 this evening and took some quick pics to see if it's ok. I'll check again tomorrow but i'm pretty sure i ran out of adjustment on focus tune at -20. If not it is very close. So, considering i most likely will have to return it i thought i would ask for some...

Just noticed these bright white spots when cropping this bird. One on the beak and two around the eye. Checked a couple other images and don't see it, but curious what causes this?

Yesterday i put together another bird feeder. This one is for the front yard. Nothing fancy, we're messy people so to us that's good enough. The back deck is good, but there are different birds that don't come around the back deck. Plus, the props on the deck have been shot a lot. The feed...

Nikon FM2n fs/or trade Selling my FM2. Bought it new in college (1992) and always treated me well. Haven't used in over 15 years, but is in perfect mechanical condition. There are cosmetic blemishes on the body along with dirt, dust and some tape residue. For more pics or other info...

My monitor blew up a couple days ago so i ordered this monitor Dell U2412M UltraSharp 24" LED Monitor U2412M B&H Photo and also the adapter for hdmi to dvi-d. I only have my laptop as a computer which only has hdmi and vga. I just assumed that the hdmi would be needed for best quality - and...

Thought some may have interest in this filter. It is $30 off today. Deal Zone, Deal of the Day at B&H 67mm will fit my 18-140 !

I'm having some issues with getting accurate color with LR. I'm new to it and would appreciate some feedback. I guess the best way to start is by showing an image processed with View NX2 with no wb or tint changes; which is close to the scene as shot. The second is in LR; and am finding a...

A new lens from Tokina for DX owners is now available. Too early to tell, but looks very promising. The only hands on aside from Tokina i could find is here:Tokina 11-20mm f/2.8 PRO DX Initial Thoughts A wide angle enthusiast on dpr has rented this lens for the weekend and will report his...
