They’re hardarses.  You wouldn’t find me swimming in that even with two 
wetsuits on.

Is that a plane in the sky?  I thought it might have been dust but I think I 
see wings in the full-size view.

That’s pretty much how I rank them too.  My wife spotted the spider web and 
called me outside to see it, so if it wasn’t for that I wouldn’t have taken any 
other photos.

I was surprised at how well this one turned out.

OT - PESO - North Wind

2015-07-12 Thread Knarf
I came across this one from last winter, taken with phone cam, that I never 
posted.

I was one heck of a cold day due to the north wind. A few days prior most of 
that water was ice but I guess the wind (coming from behind me, from land) blew 
it all into open water. The usual mist rising from open water into cold air was 
also being blown away from me. But since the wind was ~not~ coming off the lake 
there were no breaking waves, just lots of ripples on the surface. I guess they 
must have had big ones due south, on the American side.

Cool thing about the lake is that it constantly changes; it's never the same 
twice.

During my ongoing clean-up trying to de-clutter around here I was
cleaning up some stuff in my basement. I found an envelope with a couple
of film strips.

There was no date on it, but because of a couple of other photos, one of
which I actually remember taking, I'm dating it to late summer 1990.

Which means I most likely used a Super Program w/ SMC Pentax-A 50mm F1.4

Based on the date & what I can see in another (hopelessly out of focus,
motion blurred) photo, I took this out at my Mom's house in the country.
The little girl is (probably) the daughter of one of my sister's
friends. I remember them being around there that summer.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/19634072932p

I have no idea how these two strips of film ended up in my basement,
because the environment down there is not good for keeping documents &
such, but this is the second or third cache of old photos I've found
down there. All I *know* is *I* didn't put them down there.

It's a fairly thin (slightly underexposed) negative on TMax-100 and
quite the worse for having been down in that basement for so long. The
emulsion is failing. I scanned it with a Nikon CoolscanIV ED & cleaned
it up in Photoshop. The Coolscan produces an RGB image even for B&W 
films.


I applied Nik Color Efects Pro Dark Contrasts & Silver Effects Pro
Antique Plate filters and used Tony Kuyper's actions for resizing & save
for the web.

Considering the sorry state of the negative I started with, I'm pretty
pleased with the results.

Thank, Darren

I certainly do remember Sabattier effect -- played around with it in the 
very first year I got a darkroom setup -
which didn't happen until about 9 years after I was taking my 
photography seriously  (I was so afraid I'd mess up

loading film  I kept giving my BW stuff to a local custom lab)

It was fun to do - but ultimately I just found it to be anovelty and 
paper waster.  Have at most 4 or 5 prints

that are sitting around that I didn't trash.

Ashley would NOT be ameowsed  with solarization... or fun-house 
mirrors.  Just like her mommy :-)

Re: Photographer's portfolio web sites...

2015-07-12 Thread Jostein Øksne

Darren,
I've spent a year trying to get to grips with Wordpress, and have indeed 
played around with both Photocrati and other so-called Portfolio themes.
Bending WP into being a portfolio site made me nothing but frustrated, since 
the site management interface isn't really constructed for the purpose.


Koken, however, is a godsend in that respect. Another alternative I have 
looked long and hard at is The Turning Gate http://theturninggate.net
TTG creates the whole site from within the web module in Lightroom, and then 
publish the whole shebang to your site. The downside is that it is 
excruciatingly slow when designing the site, but if you can live with that, 
it's a fairly nice system.


Finding a good hosting company is slightly more complicated outside the 
English language sphere if one wish to cater to a local audience. Support 
lines located in one's own timezone is also a plus.

Subject: Photographer's portfolio web sites...

Many of you have photographer's portfolio websites or use an online
site for the same purpose. I thought I would draw your attention to an
article about that subject and a few of the comments posted, which
proved (rather than the norm) to be surprisingly useful. First, here
is the article listing 6 of the usual suspects:
http://petapixel.com/2015/07/10/6-top-online-photography-portfolio-hosting-options/

The informative part (for me) was the comments!

I had never heard of Koken but it looks intriguing to me.
http://koken.me
It is free (with some premium themes and plugins). It  is built for
Lightroom integration, which may make it of special interest to some.
As luck would have it, on July 9th, the developers are essentially
putting it on "the block". I'm guessing that whoever buys it will want
to further monitize it, so I've downloaded the installer now so that
I've got the most mature free version, regardless of what happens
going forward.

Those who like Wordpress should check out the Photocrati template. It
is not free, but incorporates a built-in shopping cart for those who
wish to sell images online.
http://www.photocrati.com/
I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but I administer and design
web sites for my employer's many varied businesses. Some of the sites
are based on Wordpress, which has become something like 20% of all
internet sites. It was a royal PITA to stay on top of (and a constant
target of hackers) until I "discovered" the Wordfence plugin (which is
a godsend). If you work with Wordpress, make that the first plugin you
install and configure with a new installation.

PESO: A Mystery to Me

2015-07-12 Thread John

During my ongoing clean-up trying to de-clutter around here I was
cleaning up some stuff in my basement. I found an envelope with a couple
of film strips.

There was no date on it, but because of a couple of other photos, one of
which I actually remember taking, I'm dating it to late summer 1990.

Which means I most likely used a Super Program w/ SMC Pentax-A 50mm F1.4

Based on the date & what I can see in another (hopelessly out of focus,
motion blurred) photo, I took this out at my Mom's house in the country.
The little girl is (probably) the daughter of one of my sister's
friends. I remember them being around there that summer.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/19634072932p

I have no idea how these two strips of film ended up in my basement,
because the environment down there is not good for keeping documents &
such, but this is the second or third cache of old photos I've found
down there. All I *know* is *I* didn't put them down there.

It's a fairly thin (slightly underexposed) negative on TMax-100 and
quite the worse for having been down in that basement for so long. The
emulsion is failing. I scanned it with a Nikon CoolscanIV ED & cleaned
it up in Photoshop. The Coolscan produces an RGB image even for B&W films.

I applied Nik Color Efects Pro Dark Contrasts & Silver Effects Pro
Antique Plate filters and used Tony Kuyper's actions for resizing & save
for the web.

Considering the sorry state of the negative I started with, I'm pretty
pleased with the results.

The best part of travelling with a 10 month old (been there done that)
is you get rushed through all travel straight to the front of long lines
for things like planes and passports etc.

The worst part: everything else.

Re: OT travel advise for the kids

2015-07-12 Thread Bob W-PDML
Well, if they haven't been to Yurp before, and assuming they are not 
experienced travellers in general, I'd suggest the line of least resistance, 
which is to follow the well-beaten tourist trail but geared towards their 
particular interests as far as possible. 

So in London I'd suggest the Tower, an open-topped bus tour (great even for old 
hands), Greenwich, Somerset House (and the Courtauld Gallery) - if the 
weather's warm, the fountains are on, and the baby has started to walk, then 
the courtyard is great for kids to play in the fountain, but take dry clothing. 
Hampton Court, Kew Gardens, a river trip from Greenwich to Kew is excellent. 
There are numerous Royal Parks which are beautiful in the sunshine, so a trip 
to Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery followed by a walk along Whitehall 
to Horseguards, then into Saint James's Park and the Mall to Buckingham Palace 
and tea with HMQ. 

The lights in Piccadilly Circus are ok at twilight, but otherwise it's just a 
tourist trap, although a meal at the Criterion is an enjoyable experience. In 
the same area, and connecting with the Mall etc., a walk along Jermyn Street to 
St James's Palace, tea at Fortnum & Mason or the Ritz, a visit to the Royal 
Academy and a walk up Burlington Arcade. Soho is well worth exploring, starting 
at Carnaby Street, getting lost and finishing at Old Compton Street - loads of 
interesting eateries around there.

Camden Lock, the canal and the Regent's Park are all interesting - the zoo is 
in the park, if you approve of such things. Around Farringdon and Clerkenwell 
is very interesting. There's a great market on Leather Lane, and another which 
is superb at lunchtime at Exmouth Market. 

There's also Columbia Road flower market, Brick Lane and Bethnal Green road, 
which are gfeeat at weekends, and Whitechapel Art Gallery to escape to (it's 
also Jack the Ripper and Kray twins territory...).

It's endless, really. I've been here for over 30 years and still finding new 
and interesting places.

Paris is the same. To some extent it's easier to tell you what to avoid, such 
as the rip-off joints around the Champs Élysées. When I go I try to stay in a 
couple of hotels on the rue Madame, near the Jardin du Luxembourg - depending 
on whether the exchange rate is for or against me. If you forego the hotel 
breakfast you can have breakfast in the lovely little Cafe Fleurus, rue de 
Fleurus, where Gertrude Stein and Alice B Toklas entertained the likes of 
Hemingway, Picasso and others, then start the day in the Jardin du Luxembourg. 
The area around the JdL is full of interest, and it's easy to go from there to 
Saint Germain des Pres and the Latin Quarter. The usual tourist haunts such as 
the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, bateaux mouches, Notre Dame, but also places like 
the rue Mouffetard, the mosque, numerous markets. A walk along the Canal Saint 
Martin is enjoyable. The Pompidou Centre is good - the rooftop restaurant is 
enjoyable in the sunshine. Montmartre is simultaneously overcrowded, overrated 
and under-explored. Try to get off the beaten track around there - I quite like 
some of the rougher areas to the east of Montmartre around Barbes, but they're 
not to everyone's taste. I also like the area around Buttes Chaumont, 
Belleville and the walk to Pere Lachaise. Finally, and a bit more upmarket, I 
like two more of the 'English' parks - Parc Monceau and Parc de Montsouris, 
which is not far from the catacombs and rue Daguerre.

I don't know Normandy very well, even though I cycled through it from Caen last 
month. I spent a couple of weeks in Rouen a few years ago, and really liked it 
and thoroughly rommend it.

Hope that helps,

B

Koken Indeed, Toine.
A lot simpler than your site though. Just took the basic template and 
tweaked the language.
Had another look at your site the other day, actually. I know I've asked you 
before, but can't find the reference; what software did you use to create

One of my friends has one of these, although it will only 'recycle' the
contents rather than the packing. His lifestyle is therefore excessively
expensive but he does comment that it was cheaper than being married. I
never met his former wife, but it has left me with an image of her chewing
up all the stuff in the house, which is hopefully not what he meant.

Thanks Ann. That day I took pictures of the boats and the commuter railway
that runs along the coastline. I took a couple of pictures just to finish
the roll of film, the dog being one of them, and those fillers were the only
ones I actually liked!
