I finally got around to submitting a pug, when the theme was mentioned I knew exactly what photo I needed to post, then when I was looking for it, I found another one. Of course when I went to process it to the requested size, the jpeg was at 516 KB, just barely too big for the size limit. It

Heipi travel tripod quick review

I asked my nomadic friend for suggestions. Her first response was that you could check escapees.com which they use for Mail Drop, etc etc. She provided several other links that might be useful and I could forward if you want to pursue this… Stan Sent from my iPad > On Apr 26, 2023, at 10:42 AM

After the hiatus of 18+ months in our travels due to the pandemic and associated shut downs, punctuated by a flooded house, a rental house destroyed by a falling tree, and then the death of my brother last November I have been thinking deep thoughts. Relevant to this group in particular is I ha

PESO: One More Tree #3

This is the third in my series of images fitting the May PUG theme of "One Tree." I found this tree while exploring the gardens of Birr Castle Demesne in County Offaly, Ireland. The demesne includes not only an impressive ancient castle surrounded by beautiful gardens, but also a Science Center t

Re: GESO some birds and LR DeNoise AI

Nice pictures, in particular the lepelaar. It looks to me that LR Denoise AI does a pretty good job here. I have installed LR classic now. Without heavy cropping I usually don't have to deal with noise on my APSC and FF pictures. However I tried last week new LR denoise successfully on some ISO 32

GESO some birds and LR DeNoise AI

Two birds shot with the Nikon Coolpix P950 (first one) and Lumix G9 / Leica 100-400. You need to click on the zoom button to see the difference. - Lightroom fails on the P950 shots and wins on the G9 shot. - PhotoAI creates halos and artefacts on the G9 raw files and with the P950 superzoom it resu
