PESO: Meerkat

[David Mann]

This is the last of my zoo photos for now.  He stood up a few moments later but 
I resisted showing such a clichéd pose.

Nice scene, looks a bit like some of the small farming blocks just out of town.

Strange, I'm not able to load that article (I get a blank screen).

In my experience you can set up as many drives as you like as Time Machine 
backups, and it'll happily back up to whichever one you plug in, and it'll do 
its backup relative to the last backup on that drive.  So rotating multiple 
drives shouldn't require anything special.

IIRC it used to behave differently but was improved a couple of OS X releases 
ago.

Dave

Re: Peso-Pastoral CA

Yup - you're right - about one horse length would be better than where I 
put him.  I think what's growing out of his back is the yellow-leaved 
tree and maybe a fence post.  ;>)

Re: Keeping photos on an external drive

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

I use Time Machine to backup everything on my system except my Lightroom 
catalogs and photos. For them, I have ChronoSync and a carefully designed set 
of synchronizer scripts that archive all my data to two additional, separate, 
backup drives. A third backup drive is in rotation with the second on a monthly 
basis and is stored off-site. 

I only use cloud backup storage for a small fraction of my stuff, mostly for 
when I'm traveling.

Re: PESO I get paid to do this!

[Rob Studdert]

Hi Guys,

Thanks for commenting. I generally do very little in the way of
retouching performance images, generally global changes only like
colour balance, contrast etc. but in this case I also desaturated and
added a little vignette for effect.

So the bright spot I expect is a specular reflection off some stray
glitter, the spot beside her is one of four holes in the wall against
which this (monthly) show is performed. If I was going to display the
images stand-alone I would probably clone it out but if I spent time
on each image it would take me an eternity.

For this shoot I made 1782 exposures using two cameras over 2 hrs
covering 9 acts plus audience shots, I delivered 298 images and found
out that my K5IIs + Soigma 18-35/1.8 will bounce from about 1m without
apparent ill effect.

Cheers,

Re: Peso-Pastoral CA

[Igor PDML-StR]

Jack,
I like the golden-fall colors. That's the colors that I used to be 
enjoying in October in New England if I could get to that part of the 
country at the right time.

(And I would have gone with Agfa film for this, - for the contrast and
nice saturated red.)

I agree with JCO that a vertical crop may work well.
It woulld be a pity to loose the saturated green in the tree on the left 
(and on the right). So, that way, it would be a completely different 
photo.
In that case I would crop through the middle of the root portion of 
the yellow tree and just to the right of its trunk branch. On the left, 
I'd go just to left of the vertical branch of the bright yellow tree.

This would give a nice balance between the red and the yellow.

Regards,

Igor

Re: Dad, 1943

[Igor PDML-StR]

Paul,
Thank you for sharing this photo!
Very nice photo with a character coming through.

What is interesting to me is that it is also rather representative of
that epoch. I immediately thought that it reminded me of a famous 
in the former Soviet Union movie "Two soldiers" with a very popular 
Russian actor Mark Bernes. As I just verified it was produced in 1942-1943 
and released in 1943.


While there were views that (at least in my memory) would be even more 
close to the photo of your dad, here is a photo of Mark Bernes in that 
role (it might be even a frame from the movie) that illustrates what
I am talking about: 
http://mtdata.ru/u1/photoD42B/20857517004-0/original.jpg

It is not the facial similarities (although there are some), but the
overall style.

Regards,

Igor

This picture was taken by a U.S. Army Air Forces photographer at Turner 
Field, Georgia in 1943. My dad was a photographer at that base and a 
fellow worker shot this pic of him on 8x10 film. I have an original 
contact print on fiber paper. It's in good shape with just a few cracks 
and specs here and there. I had tried scanning it once before but was 
unhappy with the results so I did it again today. It has a broad tonal 
range so it's a bit tricky. Much happier with this scan.


Dad was the kindest man I've ever known. Fortunately, he was too old for 
combat in 1943 so he worked as a photographer, first at Turner Field and 
later at the Pentagon. He probably wouldn't have mad a very good killer, 
but he was an excellent photographer and artist. While at Turner Field 
he painted a huge mural in the chapel. His murals once decorated a 
number of Chicago residences and buildings, including the lobby of the 
long-ago-demolished Edgewater Beach Hotel.

Dan,

In India, above the equator, some women have a (dark) dot above the neck
(on the forehead).
In Australia, they have things upside-down, so the dot is below the 
neck... (and changed the polarity). ;-)



Rob, nice work.
I agree with others that a dark smudge to her right (actually there is 
also the second one, more faint, close to the edge), seems like a spot on 
the sensor, and that two white dots on her neck (especially the lower 
one) can be retouched.

I use Time Machine as my "local" backup on all my Macs, but I also push up all 
of the important data to a cloud backup service (I use CrashPlan - local 
company). 

"Belt and suspenders".  So far, whenever I've needed a backup (such as: I'm at 
work and want a copy of a file that is on my home machine), I've been able to 
successfully restore to my laptop (Crashplan lets you restore to any of your 
machines using the backup from any of the machines as a source).   That's (so 
far) been a good test and confirmation that I can get my data back when I need 
it.

Re: PESO - Halloween Hedge

[Daniel J. Matyola]

That is hilarious!  Is it intentional?

It reminds me a bit of the "Swarovski Giant" in Wattens, Austria,
which houses the company's museum:

Lovely portrait, Rob. And why _shouldn't_ you love your job? :)

Super niggly, but a dark, in-focus smudge just to the right of the

Yes, I'm not suggesting they should be your only copy. Keep a copy at home too.

That reminds me of when I was 17 and had a summer job working in the grounds of 
Harrogate Ladies' College, trimming their hedges. 

In the headmistress's garden there was a similar hedge which we trimmed 
unmistakably into the shape of an erect phallus.

Re: Dad, 1943

A classic portrait, Paul. Could be a film star. It just shows that equipment 
doesn't necessarily make the photographer.

Subject: Dad, 1943

This picture was taken by a U.S. Army Air Forces photographer at Turner 
Field, Georgia in 1943. My dad was a photographer at that base and a fellow 
worker shot this pic of him on 8x10 film. I have an original contact print 
on fiber paper. It’s in good shape with just a few cracks and specs here and 
there. I had tried scanning it once before but was unhappy with the results 
so I did it again today. It has a broad tonal range so it’s a bit tricky. 
Much happier with this scan.


Dad was the kindest man I’ve ever known. Fortunately, he was too old for 
combat in 1943 so he worked as a photographer, first at Turner Field and 
later at the Pentagon. He probably wouldn’t have mad a very good killer, but 
he was an excellent photographer and artist. While at Turner Field he 
painted a huge mural in the chapel. His murals once decorated a number of 
Chicago residences and buildings, including the lobby of the 
long-ago-demolished Edgewater Beach Hotel.
