Re: JFK on cycling, to cheer up the accident prone

[Cotty]

 I have just discovered the following quotation:

 "Nothing compares with the
 simple pleasure of a bike ride"
 John F Kennedy

 Coming from a man who shagged Marilyn Monroe, and thought 'first lady'
 meant the one he had before breakfast, that has got to be a good
 recommendation.
   
>>> Perhaps Marilyn wasn't really that good in bed..
>>> 
>>
>> Or perhaps JFK just prefered sex with bicycles.
>>
>>
>>   
>Do you think he wore a helmet?

It was purple.

Cheers,
  Cotty

FS Friday: FA 80-200 mm 2.8

[Carlos Royo]

I still have the FA* 80-200 mm. 2.8 and have reduced the asking price 
once more, as I would rather sell it to a PDML member:

FA 80-200 mm. 2.8 LN- (almost like new), boxed, with its original Pentax
pouch and pouch strap, front and back caps and original lenshood. It's
only got a small blemish: between the first and second element, it has a
very small hazy spot only visible at a certain angle, which doesn't
affect the quality of the pictures at all. I took it to my usual repair
shop, and they said it wasn't fungus and it wasn't worth opening the
lens to clean such a small spot. They also said that special tooling was
needed to open the lens in case I wanted to have it cleaned and it
should be sent to an official Pentax service centre.
I can send photos of the lens to prospective buyers. Price: now 1200 
euros plus shipping expenses.

I am the original owner of this lens.

If you are interested in it, please send a message to my email box, not
the list. Shipping expenses are not included in the price.

Thank you for your attention.

Carlos

links apparently blocked

[Paul Stenquist]

Every message I send to the list with a link, whether it be a paw or  
peso, has been blocked. My apologies if they all show up at once. I  
think I tried to send a PESO message about five times over the last  
twenty hours. Don't know where they're blocked. I thought at first it  
was the Comcast servers. But a test showed that a message with a link  
will go through to other addresses. Could it be the list? I'm  
scratching my head.

I don't know why this should change without your express input, but 
maybe you're mailer is including links as html rather than ascii text.  
I'd check it's settings.

Re: links apparently blocked

[Inner Focus]

This is strange. I, too, have sent two GESOs and one PESO to the list - and 
only one of them made it. I thought it was Yahoo, but now I think it's the 
list. My links were pointing to flickr.com. Should I resubmit them?

A. M.

PS: The true question is rather: why are there, on the other hand, plenty of 
mails containing links which still manage to get through?

Thank you, Frank. 

It was a quiet still moment when the birds had departed. I was hoping to evoke 
some of that quiet, and the sharp clarity it poses in relief. 

I think the consensus so far is that 80% of respondents from this list are not 
fond of it, 60% on other lists seem to like it. I'm ambivalent. I have a few 
others from the session I like as well or more, but I found this one striking. 
I'm done with it now. :-)

What version of DNG Converter are you using? I think it was versions  
prior to DNG Converter v3.2 that would 'hide' certain makernotes/ 
private data, all later versions should have it embedded in the file.  
If you reprocess older DNGs with the latest DNG Converter (v4.3), it  
should restore the data unless it was simply elided.

The DA* lenses are so new that none of them were converted to DNG  
with anything other than the latest conversion.

I was converting all files to DNG with DNG Converter until Lightroom  
came out; I reprocessed all at some point. Now I convert all files to  
DNG on the fly using Lightroom's "convert file to DNG and copy to a  
new format" Import setting. All the lens names are interpreted  
correctly now.

Re: Denied

[Bruce Dayton]

An interesting issue brings itself forward when the voting is so open
like this.  There have been quite a few photos shown on this list
(including a few of mine) where some of the members can't see the
deeper shadows - essentially a hardware problem - could be calibration
or just problem monitors.  So when a photo is voted on, not only are
you at the mercy of the voters, but if their monitors don't/can't show
the subtle details, your image could get panned.  A fairly recent one
of mine shown here did just that.  
http://www.daytonphoto.com/PAW/ptreyes_0137a.htm
Based on the list response, I thought this one would make it.  There
were some responders on the list here who could not see the foreground
details and thought there was too much black in the foreground.

What I am getting at, is that the odds of a subtle image making it
through now is even harder because of variance of equipment being used
to view the photos for judging.

Thoughts?

Not that I've definitely decided to part with the FA 80~320 at this

I don't think I originally commented on that shot, so I will now by
saing I quite like it.

And for the record I can see details in the foreground, but I can also
see some of noise. Which detracts from the overall effect somewhat

Re: Denied

Bruce,

It's not just equipment, it's viewing conditions as well.
I see less subtle dark details here than I do in the basement.
Here I use my laptop with a 3 pane sliding glass door right behind me
- north light.
In the basement I'm a troglidite.  Weak 60 watt lights in the ceiling
leaves it dark!
You see different things on the 20 inch LCD in the basement.

And as before, I like the photo.  The crescent moon is an eye magnet!

Regards,  Bob S.

Re: Denied

[Jack Davis]

Hi, Bruce, you make a good point!
I have a clear recollection of the image and my (and other) 'too dark'
responses to it. I may be wrong, again, but it seems that when a "too
dark" comment was made, you indicated you were happy with the exposure.
I saw the image when voting and noted it was obviously lighter. There
had been others who felt it would benefit from being able to make out
more detail and I, of course, thought you had acquiesced to that idea.

No idea what the problem is. But, Paul, PDML is  plain text, so you shouldn't 
be able to send a link to it anyway. I have AOL  email, which gives me the 
option to format my emails as plain ASCII text. Since  AOL's normal mode is 
embedded html in email.

All you really have to do,  Paul, is find a way to format your email so it is 
plain ASCII text, then a link  isn't a link it's just another text string.

Have you recently changed  email clients? If so, a lot use embedded html or 
rich text format -- and that  may not be immediately apparent to you. Find out 
what you have to do to reformat  your email messages.

Which is, of course, the problem with computer images in general. Then we have 
the Apple 1.8 gamma vs. Windows 2.2 gamma problem. And those are a problem even 
on well calibrated systems. Then you have the, "Calibration, what's 
calibration?", folks out there. And to top it off you have the personal 
preferences problem, do you prefer a somewhat highkey or a somewhat lowkey 
image. At least in the days of chemical prints you could move the image into 
the 
proper light if you were a perfectionist.

Even more: with LCD displays, it also depends on the angle of view. For 
instance, if I'm sitting in my chair in my normal, relaxed position, then I can 
barely make sense of the foreground. It is enough to raise my head a few inches 
and I can already see the grass. A lot depends on the ambient light, too. So, 
yes, you're at the mercy of these random conditions. But, equally well, people 
judging your photos are not necessarily experts, in the same way that people 
voting for, say, presidential elections are not necessarily subtle political 
analysts. In a serious competition you'd probably not encounter this kind of 
problems (hopefully).

Paul,

try a post with a link and CC yourself and some list folk. (I am
willing) then maybe the problem can be identified if its a formatting
thing.

I'd agree with Marnie - your eMail client is probably formatting
messages including links as HTML rather than as plain text.  That,
of course, will cause the list server to reject them.

People posting links successfully are probably using an email client
that's "less intelligent" (i.e. one that just does what you tell it,
not what it thinks you probably want to do).

Re: links apparently blocked

[Inner Focus]

It cannot be html formatting. I've got two arguments to back this up:

1) together with my GESO about the Esparron lake in Provence, I had sent other 
2 mails. They were both formatted *exactly* like the one that got through on 
PDML, yet they got lost somewhere... (Plus, I explicitely set Yahoo mail to 
format my mails as ASCII.)

2) A few days ago I began receiving reply messages with the subject "Re: 
Denied". That was strange, since I hadn't received the initial "Denied" post. I 
thought I had deleted it by mistake, but in fact it arrived only the next day.

In my case, it looks like some server, between Yahoo and PDML, does not forward 
mail properly. The reason that one of my mails made it and the others not is 
that mails from A to B do not necessarily follow all the same route.

Please also recall that in my message (a few days ago) about Sigma HSM I had 
included (as plain text, as usual) a link pointing to the Wikipedia article 
about ultrasonic motors. That message made it, too. So, it's quite random. Some 
server probably drops mail messages, without acknowledging it. Which is quite 
irritating.

Re: links apparently blocked

[Paul Stenquist]

Thanks for the suggestions. I've never had a problem before, and I  
haven't changed mail servers. I did update the Opsys but that  
shouldn't have changed my mail settings. I did review my preferences  
and noticed that the box for "rich text" was checked. I changed it to  
plain text, and I'll try again. Perhaps that setting was somehow  
altered. However, I should note that all the PESO messages I get  
include a live link. Perhaps my software converts it when displaying.  
Don't know.

Paw: First snow

[Francis]

Hi every one!

http://www.islandlight.ca/showphoto.php?image_id=460&gallery_id=&s=pentaxdiscuss
This buck has been coming to our house every winter for the last three 
years to collect the apples that I put out for him.
When I first met him he was the cutest little fawn but now he's getting 
to be almost intimidating with those flash new antlers.

Taken with: Ist DS + K200mm F2.8 + tripod at 1/45,  200 iso, F4 (or 
maybe 5.6).


Merry Christmas and thanks for looking,
Francis

Re: Paw: First snow

[Alastair Robertson]

Very nice portrait - beautifully sharp. However, I think framing on
your webpage doesn't do it full justice - it's kind of small, and I
think the broad white frame detracts from the image and robs screen
real estate which could be better employed showing us a larger image.

Me also. (The first time.)
The url has a line brake in it so you have to cut and past the query 
string from the nest line (including the "?" that is on the same line as 
the link but for some reason not "hot") in to your browser.

cumsa:
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?topic_id=1481&msg_id=00NUz0&photo_id=6691348&photo_sel_index=0

By the way Paul:
Very nice light/tonality, especially on the hat and jacket. The 
highlight by the chin bugs me a little but I guess it was unavoidable.
Good work.

Just another thought, would it be worth using TinyURL to post your links.  
Might or might not circumvent the problems you're having.

Re: Paw: First snow

Thanks for the suggestions Jack.
It may seem weird, but because I mostly do nature photography and people 
are continuously asking me "oh my gosh! Did you like photoshop that or 
something?" I try not to do anything other than subtle global 
adjustments to the photos that I put up for sale. On the other hand, I 
do like to fiddle with them just for fun so maybe I'll try it. :)

Thank you Alastair,
I was actually worried that I might have way over sharpened it!

Thank you also for the feedback about the web layout, we have the photos 
small intentionally so that they don't make such enticing free micro 
stock for anyone who happens upon them (also my screen is so small that 
they barely fit as it is) but the frame might be worth rethinking. Any 
one else have an opinion?

Francis

PS.
Is it bad pdml etiquette to plug up the list with replies to peoples 
comments? Or is it bad etiquette not to reply to peoples comments? Or both?

Re: Paw: First snow

[Jack Davis]

Only seems proper etiquette to respond in some way. Not doing so, can,
I suppose, be felt inconsiderate by some. Even a generic such
as.."thanks to all those who commented" will certainly do.

I think there is too much thanking on the list. Some people
individually thank everyone who made a comment. This is not really
necessary. We should all take it as read that we are all grateful for
comments. At most a 'thanks to everyone who commented' should be
enough.

Francis - Do you live on Cortez Island???  (the link came up with that 
in Netscape)

Nice shot, btw...

My ex husband, Bob Sanfedele and his wife own "Healing Waters"  - he is 
resposible for my getting into photography and
although our marriage ended over 30 years ago, we are still in touch and 
are friends.I visited there in 1993 and, as luck would have it, 
someone had canceled their rental and I got some terrific accomodations 
for a couple of days for nothing :)

Peso: Ice fishing?

[Bob Sullivan]

Found this in the AM...

http://picasaweb.google.com/rf.sullivan/IceFishing/photo#5139147755849263586

Cropped a bit from a shot with the K10D & A400/5.6.
Resting on the car window, 1/90th and F5.6 at ASA800.

This Heron must be a bit confused as the lake was completely covered by ice.
He really didn't fly off as he usually does when we get this close.

Comments welcomed

Regards,  Bob S.
