I've had no end of these darn e-mails. I've spoken to a couple of people who've (supposedly) sent them, and they have no idea how regularly or how many of these messages are sent. The one thing I did ask was how they benefitted from membership, and no one has told me anything positive; it's usually being sent other membership requests!

Re: OT: Please Do Me a Favor
When LinkedIn (as well as Facebook and a few other social and professional-flavor social networks) is asking you to give access to your e-mail account (Gmail, Yahoo, ...), -- looks at all addresses you have there (people to whom you sent e-mail messages, and possibly those from whom you received messages, and those in your address book), and sends invitations without your knowledge (to "People You May Know"). The solution is simple: NEVER give access to your email to ANY program or website. You don't let the door-to-door sales people into your house to look in you snail mail and your address book. Why would you trust LinkedIns, Facebooks, etc.?! Some people are just too naive, and that why social engineering works. That's how you get hacked or your identity stolen: by believing everything that's written "on the [restroom] wall" This morning I also received an "invitation" from LinkedIn on behalf of a certain PDML member. That's an indication that he opened his e-mail to LinkedIn. That had happened to a few other PDML members in the past (with LinkedIn and FB). John, you can actually use the link at the bottom of that "invitation" message to stop future messages from LinkedIn or FB. That a very rear case when I would consider unsubscribing from the message(s) I didn't subscribe to. But I agree, it is annoying.

Re: OT FYI: New55 - a new instant 4x5 film product
I read that earlier. From what I could gather it's currently an artisan product. Each film pack is almost hand crafted. At $85.00 for 5 exposures it would have to be. I remember using the original Poloroid type 55 film, it cost about twice for a quick print or negative what it would have for a Tri-X image of the same format would have, (but you couldn't have both). It was worth it for a quick exposure test, and sometimes the negative could be used, but not often if it was exposed for a print, so if the lighting and exposure were correct, we'd do a second exposure using Ektachrome or B&W Film. I had to price out the cost of sheet film and paper to make an exposure and contact print in 4x5 for comparison but a 25 sheet box of Ilford HP5 costs $32.00 at B&H, I couldn't find any reversal paper in 4x5 but a 25 sheet box of Ilford Multigrade 8x10 can be had for $19.99. Leaving aside the costs for chemicals per print, the Cost per print from New55 is $17.00 the cost per print assuming you cut your own 4x5 paper for contacts is $1.28, (film), $.20, (paper), for the sake of argument, assume it's a $1.00 in chemistry to process each print, which gives a total cost of $2.50 for materials for each contact print. We used to shoot type 55 to save on the cost of materials but at this exchange rate you might as well bracket exposures on 4x5, (the concept alone blows my mind), and hire an intern at minimum wage to do the darkroom work. You'd still come out a head. On 1/20/2016 4:42 PM, Bruce Walker wrote: Haven't seen this mentioned here.

Re: Question: Interactively setting watermark position in LR?
Thank you David! It's a pity that it cannot be used with the images "in place", i.e. without exporting them. I am not uploading via the Web module, but I am creating (exporting to the hdd) web galleries in LR. It still can be useful when I need some standalone images with customized position of the watermark, but not for creating web-galleries. I (finally!) finished watching this video that shows how to use this plugin in LR (starting from about 9 minutes mark): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIdq_YX9PyQ (Warning: the video is painfully slow.) And that process is rather painful: trial and error approach. You can actually do some similar things (albeit with only two elements) in the Print module with an ability to preview, and export the image that way (print to JPG). I am interested in a more WYSIWYG tool (within LR realm). Igor David Parsons Wed, 20 Jan 2016 13:55:33 -0800 wrote: I used to use LR/Mogrify 2 to create borders when exporting.

Re: Question: Interactively setting watermark position in LR?
John, Yes, thank you. I've been using the brush technique in PS for the past 10 years. I don't think there is any similar way in LR, at least not in v.5.x and earlier. (I am not sure about 6.x.) That's why I am hoping there might be a plugin with that functionality. Igor PS. I just found LR/Mogrify 2 plugin... Looking at what it is capable of. If anybody has used it with LR, - your impression is appreciated.

PESO -- Boz (further adventures with the Sigma Zoom 70-210mm f4.0~5.6),
Boz is a good-natured gentleman of my acquaintance. I actually think I captured that aspect of his personality in this photo. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1604247/PESO/PESO%20--%20Boz.html Equipment: Pentax K-5II w/Sigma Zoom 70-210mm f4.0~5.6 UC-II. In continuance of my mini review of the 70-210mm, I think my original impression that it's not quite as good as the Pentax F 70-210mm is born out. It is in fact the first lens I've had that doesn't seem to have the ability to out resolve the sensor I've paired it with. That being said, it's still not bad. At full resolution, (wide open), I can't pick out individual eye lashes and the knit in his cap is a bit soft even after a judicious amount of sharpening. At reasonable levels of enlargement the the overall image seems to be quite nice. I wouldn't hesitate to make an 8x10 or even 11x14 print from this file. I even expected a bit more flare but I didn't notice an untoward amount of that. I still haven't found a lot of documentation on the lens but using e-bay as a benchmark, one should be able to acquire this lens for under $40.00 quite a few were going begging for much less, though in other than K mount. It's not a lens to turn one's nose up at, at those prices. The sad part is based on it's performance so far, it's too good to sell for the market rate, and would stay home if I could find another decent condition F 70-210mm.

Re: PESO and a question
Hi, Larry! You're shooting white on white in the case of the near surf and at a substantial distance at the crashing far surf. Not enough structure in the near surf and that can only be enhanced by more definition. Difficult to gain when shooting such a large area. The far crashing wave would need a longer lens and a fairly fast shutter to catch the surf spray at or near it's peak with good definition. I don't expect any revelations to derive from this, just dealing with the obvious. My speciality! J Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 20, 2016, at 6:18 AM, Daniel J.

Larry, the detail in the scenes looks pretty good to me. A wonderful set for someone who hasn't seen the sea for some years! I suppose you're actually referring to the micro detail?
