Very much enjoyed looking through them. Two I really liked were 'View from
the observation car' & 'Spider Rock' which capture both the atmosphere - and
the vast open landscapes of the areas.

Re: PESO - Blue Snowflake

2015-01-28 Thread Igor PDML-StR


Mark,

Your guess about the auto-WB compensating for the yellow light is very 
plausible. I've seen this type of things happening.


If that's not the case, - I wonder if it is somehow a result of optical 
interference on the thickness of some layer(s) of the flake.

It looks like the blue color is where there are some sort of "droplets"
on the snowflake. I wonder if it's the interference on the two surfaces of 
those "droplets".


Nice image, as usual.

Igor

I took the opportunity to try using a yellow filter, just to experiment. In
this shot the background is yellow but the crystal itself is mostly blue -
maybe an artifact of having the multi while balance featured enabled. At any
rate - it was something different :

Thanks, Rick. Glad to hear that. It jibes with other comments I’ve heard. Would 
like to afford the 16-50/2.8, but even used it’s beyond my means—unless I

GESO - Roadtrip USA

2015-01-28 Thread Brian Walters

G'day all

It's now over 18 months since my family and I brought our Australian  
accents to the western USA and, while I haven't exactly ignored the  
photos I took, it's taken until now to put them into a gallery.


This is not a 'best of' gallery - it's more of a travelogue, so there  
will be some (lots?) of images that are not going to win any prizes.  
There are quite a few images - 75 in total - and this is only Part 1!  
Of course, you don't have to look at all (or any) of them, but I  
thought some of you might be interested to see where we went and what  
we saw.  There's a map of the route at the start of the gallery.


Part 1 covers Los Angeles to northern Colorado via Nevada, Arizona,  
Utah (briefly) and New Mexico.

Quoting Stanley Halpin :

A quick selection which includes the 3 shots I just sent to Mark for  
his consideration in the Annual.


http://www.zenfolio.com/smhphotos/p344979433



Some fine work there - 2014 was good to you!

Favourites:  6, 8, 11, 23, 24, 30, 36.

Most favourite: 14 - minimalism at its best!

I?m outta here tomorrow for a trip to Argentina, with an Antarctic  
drive-by. I expect I may have a few more images when I get back in 3  
weeks.



I should bloody well hope so!!

Re: Question - Pentax .AVI and Lightroom

2015-01-28 Thread Igor PDML-StR



Zos,

It is on a Win-7 system.
Yep, I saw it mentioned that LR is (might be) using codecs from QuickTime.
QuickTime is installed on this computer. More over, - LR 3.6 on the same 
computer can work with the same AVI's just fine. I just checked, nothing 
has changed with that.


I don't know if LR-5 needs a newer version if QT...
I am still puzzled.

you are missing the codec lightroom needs. Are you on OS X? If so I
probably wouldn't be much help, but lightroom is dependent upon
whatever codecs you have installed on your machine for video. IIRC, it
definitely wants quicktime at the very least. If you are on a PC try
installing quicktime and maybe the full k-lite codec pack.

I had no problem with the video files from the same camera in LR-3.*.

I googled and found a few possible solutions (including a plugin).
But I am still not sure if it is a problem of my installation of LR-5,
or it's a "feature"...

Has anybody encountered any similar problem, and does anybody know a
solution?
While I don't do much with the videos in LR, - it's nice to use LR as a
"cataloging" tool. Also, avoiding errors during import of photos would be
nice.

Thank you,
