Re: OT PESO - Friends
Quoting Ken Waller kwal...@peoplepc.com: Nice capture. Reminds me of the smaller owls I've seen. Approximately how big are they? Are they both mature ? Thanks for the comment, Ken. A mature frogmouth is about barn owl size - the larger one in the photo is mature; the smaller one about half grown - not sure if the two birds are related. Frogmouths are much like owls in habit - they're nocturnal, fly silently and prey on insects etc. Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: Brian Walters apathy...@lyons-ryan.org Subject: OT PESO - Friends Tawny Frogmouths have to be my favourite Australian native birds.

Re: PESO - Stormtrooper on the web
Thanks to all who commented, Alan, Toine, Dan, Eric, Mark, Brian! Eric, - to answer your question: I used Pentax D-FA 100/2.8 Macro Lens (the older version, not WR). I tried a few different settings. The area was in a shade of a tree and a shed, but depending on the direction there was some bright areas in the background. So, I tried without a flash. But then, I used the built-in flash (I was too lazy to go back to the house for the external one). I was trying to close down the aperture, to increas the DOF. These two shots were done with the flash, - hence some catch lights. 1/180 f/10 ISO 400 1/160 f/4.5 ISO 1600 (I forgot to dial it down when I turned on the flash). Some photos were taken with the hand-held camera, and then I brought a tripod. Besides the breeze, one of the challenges was the awkard height of the spider: I couldn't take the picture while standing straight, and it was too far in a full squat. So, I had to semi-squat, semi-bend, and shoot up from below (to get the correct angle). That is a position in which it was hard to stabilize yourself. The tripod helped somewhat. I also tried to do stacking, - but I don't think it worked (because of the breeze). I might take a look at one series if/when I have time for that.

Re: PESO: NW Missouri Supercell
Heh. No, Jack. Frankly, after years of doing this, I'm only now starting to get fairly consistent results. There are plenty of chasers out there with better chops than me. Most shoot video. I prefer still images, though if you speed up video it can be very educational (to see rotation and storm evolution, speeded-up). I do it because they are transient events that make me feel a sense of awe. It's like taking photos of beautiful mountains only you have to find them and get in the right place to see them. I like the challenge and the strategizing during the chase, in addition to the usual photographic challenges.

To my tastes it works fine for this purpose. I don’t need anything else for it. What I’m looking for is a way to duplicate or possibly enhance my current back up system, which is two 1 TB firewire external drives managed with Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner. Regarding photography what I want basically is ability to create a copy of my photo directory as is and then make incremental backups to it as additions or changes are made to the original. I don’t want to show anyone my unedited DNG files. Earlier this year I had planned to create a new external drive-based system with much larger capacity drives accessible by wi-fi. I had identified the drives and a router and had talked with a tech-consultant friend about helping me set it up. Finances led me to hold up on proceeding with this idea. I may be ready to go ahead with it. Or, as a temporary backstop to my current system, I may give one of the cloud-based systems a try, likely Dropbox or CrashPlan. -- Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net You keep on learning and learning, and pretty soon you learn something no one has learned before. - Richard Feynman -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO: Sleepy
Dan, Nice! The first time I got to pet such a toy (in Sydney), I was surprised that (s)he was not as soft as you expect from something that looks like a stuffed animal toy. Rather, the fur is rather hard (springy). BTW, on my screen, the colors seem to be skewed toward purple. You can see it on the fur and on the rope. It looks like you might have used a flash. That could have affected the color balance. Igor On Fri, Jun 12, 2015 at 3:29 PM, Daniel J.

I just wish I could see the fall performance. I do hope to see the footage at least. I am very excited for you! Glad I asked about it. :) Please do keep posting updates.

Re: HD PENTAX-D FA ★ 70-200mm f/2.8ED DC AW launch delayed
Two things come to my mind. It's likely being co-developed with the FF camera. Perhaps something changed last minute in the camera design necessitating changes to this lens too. Or it could just be manufacturability issues. Some material in the design can't be machined reliably to spec, so needs to be replaced with a new one. I'm thinking of the SDM design which had so many long term issues. I mean, though we don't know exactly what was wrong with it, the basic design worked, but it didn't seem to be reliably mass producible.

Re: HD PENTAX-D FA ★ 70-200mm f/2.8ED DC AW launch delayed
The lens isn't really needed in the line until the FF camera is launched. So, not a big deal really, unless the camera was too be released at exactly the same time. I hope, for what will be a very expensive lens, that quality control will be improved considerably. Maybe that's the issue.

PESO: NW Missouri Supercell
It's been a very nonstandard spring on the Plains this year. Massive amounts of precipitation in May and June but very few tornadoes. Yesterday was more of the same. I got out of town a bit later than I wanted to and so was playing catch-up, which is difficult because it means you are on the opposite side of the storms than you are supposed to be to view wall clouds/tornadoes, etc. I targeted the Tail-end Charlie storm and was able to slip between it and the storm ahead of it at Falls City, NE as I proceeded east, across the Missouri River and into extreme NW Missouri. This is an example of the scene I was treated to. https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixelsmithy/18734032092/ Comments and criticism welcome in equal measure. -- Life is too short to put up with bad bokeh. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Flickr as backup
My upload speed from home would, by itself, be too slow to send my whole data store to CrashPlan for backup. But I believe they can initialize your account from a hard disk if you send it to them, and then the incremental speed won't matter too much... Just keep the system running and it will do the job.

To my tastes it works fine for this purpose. I don’t need anything else for it. What I’m looking for is a way to duplicate or possibly enhance my current back up system, which is two 1 TB firewire external drives managed with Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner. Regarding photography what I want basically is ability to create a copy of my photo directory as is and then make incremental backups to it as additions or changes are made to the original. I don’t want to show anyone my unedited DNG files. Earlier this year I had planned to create a new external drive-based system with much larger capacity drives accessible by wi-fi. I had identified the drives and a router and had talked with a tech-consultant friend about helping me set it up. Finances led me to hold up on proceeding with this idea. I may be ready to go ahead with it. Or, as a temporary backstop to my current system, I may give one of the cloud-based systems a try, likely Dropbox or CrashPlan. -- Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net You keep on learning and learning, and pretty soon you learn something no one has learned before. - Richard Feynman -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Flickr as backup
CrashPlan doesn't have servers in Europe yet. That probably makes it too slow to use if you're not in the U.S. I think Dropbox OneDrive do already have servers in Europe. If you *are* in the U.S., CrashPlan does have an option to do a seeded backup where they send you a 1TB USB drive for you to do your initial backup locally return it to them. They have a one time charge of something like $125 for the seeded backup. Then all your incremental backups can go over the internet. On 6/11/2015 1:36 PM, Toine wrote: I'm using OneDrive.
