Re: OT IG handles

2019-12-01 Thread Rob Studdert
Larry it's definitely a pain to share pics that don't originate from
the phone cam or the app directly, they really don't want desktop
access so that's why most solutions end up failing, not quite sure of
the rationale there. That said I don't find it too onerous, I just
have an IG folder in Dropbox which I pre-load from my desktop then
export to IG from the DB phone app.

Hi Guys,

I don't get much time to pop in here these days, I'm still shooting
Pentax regularly but most of my work is done using Nikon gear these
days.

If you are into gardens I shot this set of images recently, all hand
held using the 645z and superb 28-45 zoom, PP in LR, I did post this
link a while back on FB for those that are connected with me there.
The challenge of the day was not to capture 50+ random people in each
shot.

Nice job Rob. I looked ultra hard in all these pics, and they're all full of 
lovely flowers and stuff, but couldn't find a single nekkid lady

I just nabbed a Nikkor 80-200mm/2.8 AF ED lens from eekbay for 260 quid. It's 
in great nick so am well pleased. Now it gets sent off to a bloke who takes off 
the mount, de-clicks the manual aperture ring and damps its motion, and 
attaches a Canon EF mount !

I had it done to a Nikkor 17-35/2.8 a few years ago and it's terrific on video. 
It will join the arsenal of that and a Canon EF 24-105/4 with the C300 camera I 
use a lot for broadcast.

Impressive glass, to be sure. And crucially the manual aperture which is what i 
need. The 24-105 doesn't have it, the iris is controlled with a thumbwheel in 
1/3rd stop increments which is rubbish. If I could find a decent wide lens in 
that range with manual aperture i would have it. The saving grace is the 24-105 
has IS which is superb, so can't gripe too much. The 80-200 will only be used 
on the sticks.

Nice shots mate - keep up the good work!

What a lovely collection! Especially appealing to me now because it is 
dreary and damp here with snow due tomorrow...:-)  I missed this on FB -
Don't remember if I simply missed it or there was some technical 
problem  - or I sw only one shot.  If you used the "story" feature on FB 
then I couldn't even look at it.


In these, I'm enjoying the frames that are not tight closeups 
particularly - the patterns the varied plants and walkways are making.

Re: GESO: A couple of birds

Yeah, I just scrolled right from the foam frog nest.

Your Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea) looks very much like our Great Blue Heron (Ardea 
herodias)  ... and looking them up it appears they form a "superspecies" along 
with the Cocoi Heron (Ardea Cocoi) of South America.


Cool. I learned something.

Nice image BTW.

Re: What are the advantages of ransomware Lightroom? Also copying off an external drive

2019-12-01 Thread Rob Studdert
I'm late to the party but I'll chime in, much like Doug my income is
highly variable these days (photography being what it is) but still I
value the work-flow inherent in LR enough to submit to their
ransom-ware tactics (which I loathe). I stay within LR for most of my
edits if possible and venture out to PS only when absolutely
necessary, all my images are accessible via a single catalogue (as I
am regularly required to delve into past shoots) and it's currently
sitting at just shy of 600k images without a hitch.

In the last year I've also been running an Xtouch Mini MIDI mixer via
MIDI2LR to facilitate direct control of my major adjustments and image
selection and this has significantly increased the pace of my
work-flow when managing larger shoots.

The recent heavy rains have had a dramatic effect on Kruger. With so 
many perennial pools now available, the game has dispersed and the 
Mopane tree scrub is so dense you wouldn't see an Ellie at 20m! I felt 
sorry for all those tourists who paid good money for game drives this 
morning. Of course, Sable dam is overfull once more. The bird hide was 
flooded (still closed) & some overnight visitors had a harrowing 
experience with cars damaged to boot. Here are a couple of shots of 
birds on the berme in front of the bird hide: (Scroll for the other)

PESO: Foam Nest

2019-12-01 Thread Alan C
Foam nest frogs breed over perennial pools at the beginning of the rainy 
season. The tadpoles survive in the foam for a few days before dropping 
into the water below.


Go here: http://frogmap.adu.org.za/Species_text.php?sp=470          if 
you would like some facts.


This shot was taken in Kruger early this morning at such a pool on the 
edge of the Phalaborwa-Letaba road where these frogs breed every year.
