One issue you might run into with the 28mm is vignetting, but that shouldn't 
stop you from trying! :-)

Great set, and I hope there's more. Being escorted by two elegant swains 
must have opened you up to an exploratory mood.

Hi Everyone:

What a wonderful trip Darrel and I had this past June, and I think the 8 nicest 
people in all of the UK are, in fact, our UK PDMLers and their family members.

As to the trip, Darrel and I flew into Heathrow and stayed in London for 2 
days, then took the boat to Greenwich to visit with Bob W.  over the weekend.  
He is a well informed and wonderfully fun tour guide, and at one point I told 
him he could probably do this for a living.  He's that good.  We tramped around 
Greenwich and Deptford and had a blast--taking pictures all the way.  Cotty and 
Alma joined us for dinner on Saturday night and as all of you can well imagine, 
Cotty's wonderful sense of humor and charm kept us all in good humor and 
laughter.  It was a great night, and I shan't ever forget it!

From Greenwich, Darrel and I caught the train to Cambridge and tramped around 
the colleges, did the tour of King's College Chapel, and just walked and walked, 
and drank ale, and relaxed.

Then it was by bus to Milton Keynes to visit with Chris Mitchell and his wife 
Karin.  What a fantastic time we had visiting and seeing the sights there.  The 
Grand Juncture Canal was fantastic and the four of us visited some sites from 
the UK's National Trust program, which is just fantastic.  Very impressive.  
Darrel and I had such a blast visiting with the Mitchells.  Chris sang, and 
he's fantastic.

Then the four of us, Darrel  I and the Mitchells drove to Newcastle area to 
meet up with Bob W., Mike Wilson, his wife Cath, and their daughter Katy.  The area 
here is absolutely beautiful, and Mike Wilson planned an itinerary that was just 
fantastic. I think we'd all agree the high point was when we crossed the dunes and 
found ourselves on Holy Island.  Wow!  Wait till you see everyone's pictures from 
here, and the other sites visited.  They're really fun!

From Newcastle we all said good-by, and Darrel  I headed back south to catch 
a flight out of Heathrow.

We traveled for 12 days, every two days on the move.  As I've already said to 
our UK PDMLers, Darrel and I found kindness, generosity, humor, and friendship 
in abundance, and we're very grateful.  We send xxoo across the pond.

When in the Greenwich area, Bob W. took us to the Deptford St. Market.  Here's 
a little gallery from that leg of the trip.  Bob will post his gallery. His 
gallery is much better, but here's a little taste of the market--wonderfully 
multicultural!

I just ordered a 58 to 49mm version so I can try reversing 50mm or

I wonder what the Sigma EX 28mm f1.8 would do reversed on the front of
that F100? It has a 77mm filter size. H.

A good (longish) macro, coupled with a good normal to wide FAST lens
usually works best. Macro lens stopped down as far as needed for DOF, 
and the other lens wide open.

I have had good experiences with the A* 200mm macro with the FA 50mm 1.4 
or the M 50mm 1.7, as well as the M 28mm 2.8.

The DFA 100mm works OK too, optically, but the mechanical stability of the 
combo leaves a lot to be desired (and magnification is less of course).

Re: Lightroom 4, reimport from backups?

2012-07-19 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
It is and it isn't. With successive versions of Lightroom, I've found
its ability to recognize duplicates has become looser ... possibly
because Adobe received feedback that it was excluding new files that
had the same filename or other metadata as existing files in the
catalog had, I suspect. They probably loosened up the criteria as
having a couple of duplicates is less annoying than not being able to
understand why it won't bring the right files in.

If your original image file repository is structured in any of the
standard by date organizations that Lightroom will do for you, you
can take the backup directory and copy or move it into a similar
directory structure by importing it into a NEW catalog. Then you can
copy the remains of your original directory structure into it on a
folder by folder basis, starting at the leaf nodes. Once you get
there. set the catalog to look at the root of that directory structure
and then use the Synchronize command.

 I ran into some problems running out of space on my computer.  In the process

 My plan was to point the import menu at the backup files that lightroom 
 makes, sorted into backup by date.  Unfortunately, even with don't import 
 suspected duplicates checked, it seems to want to import duplicates, not 
 just the files that have been accidentally deleted from the main tree.

 When I took Godfrey's lightroom class, he specifically said that Lightroom 
 was really good at recognizing duplicates, even if the name had changed, but 
 it's completely failing to do so in this case.  Anybody have any idea what's

That's a very striking shot and testimony to how well your technique 
worked - though composition and timing of the shot are what  really make 
it.



I did my first snow crystals with stacked lenses (on a spotmatic, no 
less, since I mistakenly thought that an electronic camera would not do 
well in sustained cold.) I did quite few experiments with stacked 
lenses, usually with extension, in the late 90's for magnifications of 
4x to 10x. A good 50mm reverse mounted on the A* 200mm macro worked well 
for 4x.


For 2x in the field these days my preferred solution is a macro lens and 
2x teleconverter - keeps infinity focus and can be quite sharp. I am not 
shooting macro in MF, though I *did* buy a set of Pentax 67 extension 
rings a few months ago -  haven't tried them out yet.

I got mine at a local camera store - they had them loose in a drawer for 
a couple bucks each. Bought 10 rings to cover 58 to 49 mm combinations. 
In a pinch I've used them as step up or down rings for filters - which 
have to be mounted backwards on the double male rings. Lots of good 
stuff sitting in camera store drawers

 It appears that male to male ring will find what I'm looking for on

 Google's profile of me just changed in a rather inaccurate way. You

I think if you do male to male ring AND coupling you're just going to make 
it worse!

I think I'm going to do a test with my Tamron 90mm and an A50 f/1.7.  I'll just

PESO - The Exercise Station

2012-07-19 Thread knarftheria...@gmail.com
This guy was doing a set of exercises, running to the next outcrop of rocks 
doing another set, all the way down the shore:

 http://knarfdummyblog.blogspot.ca/2012/07/the-exercise-station.html?m=1

Beats a health club, and the view is better (but it you slip it's a ways down).

;-)

Whatever, it seems to work for him.

Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome.

Cheers,

Re: PESO - The Dedicated Picnicker

2012-07-19 Thread knarftheria...@gmail.com
Thanks, Dave!

I left it in colour for one reason, and one reason alone: the watermelon. I 
thought it was an essential part of the shot and would have been lost in 
monochrome.

Glad you had a chuckle. 

Thanks to all who commented.

I never did find out his name (I posted it on the FB party page hoping one of 
the other party goers would tag it, but no) but he shared the watermelon and it 
was delicious!

frank

Re: Lightroom 4, reimport from backups?

2012-07-19 Thread Larry Colen
The weird thing was that if files were in the active directory tree, then 
lightroom would find the duplicates and do just fine not importing them.
However, with them in the backup_by_date_imported directory tree, it just 
imports everything.

I know that there are people who claim that you don't need to sort the raw 
files into meaningful directories, and that's just fine until you make a disk 
of jpegs for someone who wants to find something without using lightroom.  


On Jul 19, 2012, at 12:57 PM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote:

 It is and it isn't. With successive versions of Lightroom, I've found
 its ability to recognize duplicates has become looser ... possibly
 because Adobe received feedback that it was excluding new files that
 had the same filename or other metadata as existing files in the
 catalog had, I suspect. They probably loosened up the criteria as
 having a couple of duplicates is less annoying than not being able to
 understand why it won't bring the right files in.
 
 If your original image file repository is structured in any of the
 standard by date organizations that Lightroom will do for you, you
 can take the backup directory and copy or move it into a similar
 directory structure by importing it into a NEW catalog. Then you can
 copy the remains of your original directory structure into it on a
 folder by folder basis, starting at the leaf nodes. Once you get
 there. set the catalog to look at the root of that directory structure
 and then use the Synchronize command.

Why are you reimporting the files?  If you only deleted the files, and
