I’ve installed the 30 day trial on my laptop (I’m out of town for a bit) and am 
giving it a try on my laptop. I’m not certain that I’ll be able to run it on my 
desktop machine. It’s a 4,1 mac pro that I’ll be updating to high sierra when I 
get home (after the holiday special ends).

Is there a good written intro tutorial for photo raw?  I absolutely despise 
watching videos.

Well I went to URI, an organization that published that the average cost 
of a Dinner cost $1.36.  True this was back when a McDonald's meal cost 
about two and a half dollars for a BigMac fries, desert and coffee, but 
almost anyone would prefer the McMeal to the dining hall, most days.

This motivated me to give a look, they do seem to be having a holiday sale 
going on for a few more days.

The only problem is that some idiot decided that it would be cute to have a 
bunch of snowflakes drifting across their website, and they are driving me 
crazy(er).

That's quite the garish, yet ugly, bird.  With the sea foam he, I'm

Wow, you went to a Posh University, the one I attended had three special 
meals per semester to highlight the usual gruel.  One was usually a 
steak of some kind, one was "Prime" Rib, and one was a Cornish Game Hen, 
or for those who made a request about a week before, some kind of 
special Fish preparation, such as Salmon Fillets, or, Stuffed Sole.


I never ordered the Salmon, since the University had a program 
experimenting on those fish and you never know...

I have always considered them something of a feast, and so did the 
dining commons at my university. One night a month we got steak 
("steak night"), but on steak night before Thanksgiving and Christmas 
we got Cornish hens. That was the first time I had them and I have 
always enjoyed them. They are often called Rock Cornish hens in the US 
because of the ancestry described by P. J.

Good to see there's been another convert to ON1 PhotoRAW.  I've been 
using various iterations of their software for several years.  I still 
have LR 6.x installed but haven't used it in close to a year.  I think 
Dave Brooks uses a version of PhotoRAW and Larry has mentioned it in the

Isn't it nice that we still have a choice these days?

I'm convinced Adobe models itself after the airline industry in
regards to customer service. Probably RyanAir in particular...

Re: For Sale Friday - Ansel Adams Books

[Daniel J. Matyola]

I should add that Vol 1 is 7 1/2 inches by 10 inches, and the other four
volumes are a bit smaller, 6 1/2 X 9 1/2.  Also, there is a very neat stamp
on each title page with the name of the previous owner.

For Sale Friday - Ansel Adams Books

[Daniel J. Matyola]

I am in the process of closing down my law office and moving a lot of items
from there to my home office.  I need to dispose of a lot of books and
equipment now in the home office, including a lot of photography stuff that
my son doesn't want or doesn't have room for.

One thing I am offering for sale is a hardcover edition of Ansel Adams' 5
volumes on Basic photography.  All five volumes are in excellent shape,
except the dust jacket for vol1 has some tears and obvious wear.  Images
are here:

Re: If you're into this sort of thing...

[Daniel J. Matyola]

In the US, a "Cornish Game Hen" is a small breed of chicken, about 2 pounds
each.  They are considered more elegant for a formal meal because each
person is served and entire bird.

The Cornish Game Hen was originally bred in the US, and is probably not
very similar to birds of similar name sold and eaten elsewhere:
