Re: PESO: The other side of Tel Aviv
Thanks Chris and Igor for the comments. The Level display in the viewfinder is wonderful and I usually take advantage of it. Sometimes I don’’t. There is nothing in the Exif that says (Dummy did remember to check the Level on this on.” So when I see an image like this, I fiddle with it. It may have been better to leave it alone! As shot was probably more level. I’ll go back and redo if/when I have the time. Meanwhile, I am more concerned in this image with the fact that, when I did my 2-3° rotation in Lightroom, the rotation was not smooth and I am seeing a tear in the image, a diagonal straight line in the lower left of the image. Not sure how well it shows in the version I posted. I’ve never noticed that sort of Fail in Lightroom before. stan On Mar 31, 2014, at 5:03 PM, Igor Roshchin wrote: > > Chris: > > Sloped horizon is in the rule 5 on this (almost 6-year old) list: > http://www.komkon.org/~igor/coolphotog.html > :-) > > Stan: that's a nice, very peaceful image. > > Cheers, > > Igor > > > > Mon Mar 31 02:18:29 EDT 2014 > Chris Mitchell wrote: > >> Nice feel.

Very OT: Rocket sirens in Tel Aviv
I've been on my way from Tel Aviv back home about an hour ago. An rocket fire alarm went off in the Big City of ours. The fall of the rocket is confirmed by mass media and denied by IDF officials. Prior to that there were an alarm and confirmed fall in Rishon LeZion which is a town north of us with some 250K inhabitants (ours is Rehovot with 120K inhabitants). It is therefore that my family and I are now all the way inside the line of fire from Gaza. I am asking please not to discuss this matter on the list but rather to keep us in your thoughts. Tonight is very likely to be very long one. For all other matters I would appreciate an off-list contact. Naturally my on-list activity will depend on my off-list status.

Hi Boris, Excellent shot, golden hour light, great composition, birds flying into the frame; I like it very much.

Re: Tel Aviv
I agree with Frank. A few previous posts referenced "trite technique". I think that can freeze us (group pressure being applied) from experimenting further. For example, I used to think that pictures taken deliberately "unsquare" (ie camera tilted noticably off plumb square) were trite. I still think most are. But I've seen people use the technique effectively, even though the hit rate might go down. If you like the effect, Boris, keep experimenting. Once in a while you'll snag a really nifty one. Please yourself. I've tried this kind of photo before and I think this beats anything I've done... but then I ain't no danged good. -Lo frank theriault wrote: On 3/15/06, Boris Liberman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi!

Re: Tel Aviv
Hi Boris, Honest and brutal, but also very (!) subjective this time. I love this kind of shots. It pulls you in. However, there are a few things that distracts from the effect, imo. The highlights become little doodles and introduce a bit of dizziness. I find that a bit... um... dunno if it's the right word, but I'll try disconcerting. Hope you understand what I think about. I've also seen this done with a lot more of the doodling effect, and that too can be cool. As it stands, I perceive it as not enough and too much. Also, I think the pic would be better without the halo of the photographer in the glass. I'm not going to suggest using a tripod. Rather, I'd suggest you lean the front of the lens towards the window pane. This will both give you better support, less reflections, and minimise the blurring effect of the window glass on the motif beyond as much as possible.

Re: Tel Aviv
Hi! http://not.contaxg.com/document.php?id=12495 Love it. I can imagine this on my wall. Thanks! Boris
Re: Tel Aviv
Hi! Yep, the technique is trite, but it certainly warrants experimentation, especially by someone who hasn't done it before. I also agree with Godders about this not being the best way to instill some dynamics into a photo. I don't think "dynamic" necessarily means movement. It can be emotional, or providing a sense of movement or tension. Still, I like this example of a trite technique. Thanks Shel. I agree with you and Godfrey. I just saw I might try this. At least I could sat this comes naturally with zooms and probably much more difficult (without PhotoShop) with fixes ;-). Boris

To get this exposure I had to turn on mirror pre-fire and use shutter speed of 1 sec. I couldn't probably produce anything even remotely smooth.

Hi! No need to be brutal. It works as an interesting graphic image, but I'm not sure if it solves the issue you had in mind.
