I love it. Excellent angle. The only thing I'd suggest it sot crop it a bit 
tighter to put the van much closer to one of the corners rather than quite so

I have the opportunity to go to the owner/builder's shop and do another photo

Is there any chance of selling the photos to a car magazine?  If so, what sort

American Eskimo is a toy breed. They weren't bred to be anything

I wish. Most networks I encounter have an access point plugged into a
port on the only switch, often despite the fact that they have a
firewall with one or multiple free optional network ports you can
route between and filter traffic and more often than not I find
clients connected to the network twice, wired and wireless at the same
time. When I point this out, the response usually is, it works so what
are you making such a fuss about... It is nice to be talking to
someone (you) who seems to know their stuff but it is a jungle out
there... still, can you name a product? I've googled a fair bit and
can't find one.

Re: Any chance of selling to a car mag?

2010-06-22 Thread paul stenquist
Talk to the magazines first. Go to a bookstore and find some specialty mags 
that feature similar cars and query the editors. Show them the pics you took 
previously. You'll have a much better chance of selling the pics if you can 
write an article as well.

You'll want to shoot the cars in an open area in either very early morning or 
very late evening light. The backgrounds should be clean. Trees are okay, but 
its best if they are far enough from the cars that they'll be out of focus. 
Architectural backgrounds are okay, but you have to know how to work with them. 
Shooting the cars in the guys shop is almost certainly a no-sell. Check out the 
kind of photography the magazines you're querying feature.

What we all seem to forget is that none of said atoms ever were in any
way /originally/ associated with any one of said individuals. Or any
other, for that matter. All those atoms were pre-owned and pre-used
even back when Neanderdollar Man laid his hairy hands on them... While
it is nice to know that they may have passed through x with a
probability of y hence making z the odds of one of them buzzing around
my brain right now all that doesn't change jack doodley doo about
their or my nature thus making them completely irrelevant to the lousy
quality of my photos. I'll screw those atoms, eat my lunch and go out
and actuate my shutter some and I won't have a care in the world how
many atoms pre-owned by HCB are in it's blades...

Do a show arp on that switch or the router and you'll usually see the
AP's MAC for all IP's on the wireless segment, the AP itself segments
the network as that's the simplest way to implement an AP.

A good example of something with single MAC and MAC cloning capability
would be Broadcom's SoC Access Point chips.

Most laptop implementations today get 2 MAC's because they use
separate silicon for the Ethernet PHY and the Wifi controller, with
the Ethernet being onboard and the WiFi being a mini-PCI card (this is
the setup in the ipconfig dump you posted earlier), you see the
single-silicon implementations in AP's and such and that's the only
time you'll usually see a single MAC across WiFi and Ethernet unless
someone's been mucking with MAC cloning.

You and the CEO of BP, apparently.  Well, he didn't actually take part,
but he was present as a spectator (and he did have a dog in the race).

It's not earning him any brownie points in the US media coverage of

LR3 and focal-length metadata - interesting

2010-06-22 Thread Charles Robinson
In the past I've seen external software which could analyze your Lightroom 
catalog and tell you what focal length I use most.  Too much of a pain, but 
interesting to see the numbers a couple times.

Now that I can select by focal length in LR, it's fun to see the distribution 
for my 16-50.  Clearly the most-popular is "as wide as possible" followed by 
"full zoom" but after that it seems to be an even distribution...

This is very OT, but since we have IT folks over here, I'm trying to

therefore you have to fill out a sheet of paper with your mac-address 
and then we can activate you for using internet."
Since I don't have a Mac, I have no clue what a Mac address is. However, 
I suspect they mean a IP address. Even so, I believe my internet 
wireless connection uses a dynamic IP and in case I have to setup a new

What would you expect to do with a Win XP laptop for getting such a

Thanks a lot.


And, just to inject something useful into this thread, newer machines 
often have a label somewhere with the MAC address written out for you.

Re: LR3 and focal-length metadata - interesting

2010-06-22 Thread eckinator
Makes sense. Shots are distributed evenly over all focal lenghts. For
any given lengths the shots you would have taken at a shorter or
longer focal length than the zoom can cover will accumulate at the
ends. Looking at Charles' LR graph his 16-50 is too short approx. 17%
of the time (this takes into account the shots taken at 50 mm when 50
mm wasn't too short) and too long approx. 35% of the time (again
corrected for shots at desired FL). Adobe has given us a nice way of
proving to our SOs that you can never carry (or perhaps have??) too
many lenses...

Plus herbody position is very dymanic, floating above the animal.
The horse is in a great pose too, with fore legs just above the bar,
and his gaze in the foreground vs her's onto the next jump.
I doubt you'll take a better shot, hope it's your daughter!

Pentax, listen!
Thanks to Adobe the PDML has yet something new to gripe about and it
is backed by solid scientific evidence.
We need a 500 to 5 mm tele to wide zoom prime. And it had better been

Next what we need is to show the distribution of focal lengths over time.  Then 
you could decide if the different focal length usages are far enough apart that 
you'd have been able to swap the lenses out to cover it, or if a zoom was more 
up your alley.

Me - I'll stick with the zooms for general use until my budget gets a lot 
larger!

Re: LR3 and focal-length metadata - interesting

2010-06-22 Thread David Parsons
I looked at all the focal lengths the I've used with my K100DS, and
it's interesting to see where the focal length 'bumps' are without
filtering by lens.  It is fairly even along the range from 10-300,
with some dips at here and there.  I mainly use my 16-45, 55-300, and
10-20.  I can see where the ends of the zooms are, but I'm pretty
liberal about switching lenses while shooting, so it's not surprising
that there is a fairly even distribution.

It was interesting to see that in the 16-45 range, the 28mm I just got
is one of the more frequent lengths.  :)

Nice lookin' car and shot.  You make these look so perfect - like
anyone could stand there and snap the shot.  Of course, having tried
this, I know very differently.

Good work!

PESO - Vista

2010-06-22 Thread Bruce Dayton
Jack has invited all who can to get to see Yosemite with the water
running high.  I ended up having a very quick opportunity yesterday
to get down there to and visit my brother and his family who were
camping there.  The park is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours to get there from
my house.  So we left at 5am and drove down.  Had a wonderful,
whirlwind day there and left about 9:45 pm to get home about 1:30am.
A very long day, but still very worth it.

So here come some shots.  Who says you can't use a telephoto in this
amazing park!

Wow, Thanks, Bob.  No it isn't my daughter.  My yougest daughter is desperate 
to learn to ride now that we live in Virginia horse country.  Lessons are 
forthcoming.

I really like the look in the rider's eyes contrasted with the look in the 
horse's eyes.  Both focused but on different things.  I certainly hope i take 
better shots! :) (I know what you mean, and thanks).

GESO - Yosemite

I've never been a big fan of GESO's, simply because there is so much
to see at once, but since everyone has been viewing all the Yosemite
shots, we might as well go that direction.

So here is the beginning of the GESO - just click 'Next' to view
through the rest of them.

Some OT - Question about paper trimmers

2010-06-22 Thread Igor Roshchin


I am back to choosing the paper trimmer.
A while back (last year), John Sessoms recommended Dahle paper trimmers.
(altough Red River no longer sells those).

I would need to cut papers that are up to 13"-wide. (13"x19").

So, I was deciding between
http://www.machinerunner.com/Catalog/Rotary-Trimmers/Dahle-14-25-Professional-Rotary-Trimmer
- model 550, and model 508:

http://www.machinerunner.com/Catalog/Rotary-Trimmers/Dahle-18-Personal-Rotary-Trimmer

I suspect that Dahle 370 - is not suitable - it can cut only up to 3
sheets - but that I suspect is the regular paper, - so for photo paper
it won't work.
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/558282-REG/Dahle_370_Model_370_Card_Maker.html

Any other suggestions/recommendations? (brands, what to look for, where
to buy)?

For those people who use paper trimmers, - how often do you use/find
usefl the "opposing paper guide":
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/304540-REG/Dahle_550_550_Professional_Rolling_Trimmer.html


Thank you,

Igor

I use a box cutter with a very sharp blade, a t-square and a mat-room scaled 
cutting board. Fast, accurate and flexible.

The shot works great, Bruce. Not ideal conditions, but the elements assembled 
in such a way as to produce a powerful image.

Returned to this link and took a look at the full set. Very nice collection! 
All beautifully composed. 
You certainly did make great use of the long glass especially under the 
pressure of such limited time.

Re: PESO - cowboy

2010-06-22 Thread Christine Aguila
Excellent!  I have a similar shot on film taken, gosh, over 20 years ago, 
though I have more than one hat in the chutes.  I traveled with a 
bull-riding rodeo cousin, and learned a lot about cowboys that summer. 
Wonderful picture, Doug.  Really excellent.  Cheers, Christine

I agree with everyone.  Water drops make the shot!  Cheers, Christine

The "crispness" of the bird and the drops is really good.  Or maybe I
just like crispy duck ;-)
