I did something this time which I've never before done at a concert - I shot entirely in RAW mode. Wow. The things you can do with white balance and color correction are just out of this world compared to what your options are with a JPEG file. Wow! Of course, I only got 199 images on a 2-gig card rather than the 5-600 I would have otherwise gotten. But, I was otherwise amazed at what I could get away with. In the following photo, most of the light on this guy (Adam Levy) was yellow. YELLOW. I left a little bit of the yellow in because I didn't want the image to look TOO cold, but for the most part, just a touch of the neutral dropper in Lightroom made this image actually usable. I was quite pleased. Gotta get me some more big big cards - I'm going to shoot like this more often.

I lost mine on Christmas day back in the 1990's..joe -- Original message -- From: Cotty cotty...@mac.com On 26/12/08, Cory Waters, discombobulated, unleashed: On top of that all that, my father passed away quite suddenly and we had to take a road trip up to Michigan for the funeral. It's a two thousand mile round trip. I hadn't posted anything to the list about my father yet. Our relationship wasn't by any means a normal one and I'm OK with his passing. At the risk of sounding morbid and unseemly, if you're going to die from lung cancer, getting it all over with in a week is likely the preferable way to go about it.

Lightroom Q
I am *slowly* learning to use Lightroom and have many questions. I found a plug-in that would let me export right to a Smugmug gallery. So I get through picking the photos, putting them into a quick collection, and export them as jpegs. It's pretty trick, really. That was easy!. Unfortunately, I forgot the step where I resized the photos because they don't need to be so big. Today's question: How does one batch resize photos when some are portrait and some are landscape? The export do-hicky has where you can resize the photos, but they're different formats...

RE: Another Casualty.
Guess, I will not be able to get any more film for my Polaroid back for my LX..
I will take a photo of it, so the list members can see what it looks like, if
any of you did not that there was made for the LX. It was made the same time
when the Nikon F3 version was also out.
But however I still have frozen Polaroid film number's 667 and 669 in the
fridge. Joe

Re: Lightroom Q
If you're using Lightroom's native Export function, just tell it how many pixels or 'inches @ what density you want' for the long edge if you want them to conform to a standard L x H or H x L sizing.

Re: Lightroom Q
Hi Cory: Sorry to hear about your dad. 1) on a PC (I don't know what it is on a Mac) you'd hold the ctrl key then click the photos you want to resize. 2) File - Export 3) In Resize, choose LONG EDGE--program now knows to size according to the long vertical of a portrait and long horizontal of a landscape.

Unfortunately, I forgot the step where I resized the photos because they don't need to be so big. Today's question: How does one batch resize photos when some are portrait and some are landscape? The export do-hicky has where you can resize the photos, but they're different formats... I can't speak specifically for the SmugMug exporter dealiebob, but generally when adjusting the size of exported photos, you get to select the long side size with a slider.

I know. I felt the same way about the cut off mail box corner. Had it been
taken for any reason other than the frost, I would have made the trek out('prox

Re: PESO - The Fence
Like the shot, Bruce. While I don't think the light is from car headlights, it reminds me of one the tinniest bit. I would have to try a version with a little more detail in the foreground and, perhaps, one with less foreground. Good DoF.

Re: Lightroom Q
I use the flickr exporter I'll assume that they are similar. , and I've setteled on 950pix on the long edge for most of my uploaded images. So in the size section I have the resize box checked entered 950 in the W H boxes. Cheers, Dave P.S. Welcome back. 2008/12/28 Cory Waters cbwat...@bellsouth.net: I am *slowly* learning to use Lightroom and have many questions. I found a plug-in that would let me export right to a Smugmug gallery. So I get through picking the photos, putting them into a quick collection, and export them as jpegs. It's pretty trick, really. That was easy!. Unfortunately, I forgot the step where I resized the photos because they don't need to be so big. Today's question: How does one batch resize photos when some are portrait and some are landscape? The export do-hicky has where you can resize the photos, but they're different formats...

It's not particularly sharp wide open, but at f/2 - f/2.8 it is quite nice. You can see it sharpen up when you're in MF Assist mode as you stop it down, after focusing.
