Re: You didn't hear it from me...

It sounds a bit like the book dealing hobby (sorry, business) that Christine A's Darrel runs. An old guitar mate of mine contends that if you know how many guitars you've got, you haven't got enough. The same adage applies to lenses. Chris On 24 September 2013 16:41, John wrote: > On 9/23/2013

Re: PESO A scene from near the end of my walk.

Nice shot Eric and good that you finished the walk in spite of all of the foot problems. Did you partake of Cromer crab? (that's a gastronomic delicacy, not an embarrassing disease) Chris On 24 September 2013 11:01, Eric Weir wrote: > > Street scene from the older part of Cromer, where my walk

I'd still recommend Jalbum. A neat way of creating galleries with loads of control over look and feel and the choice of hosting on the Jalbum.net site or your own space. Built-in ftp too. Chris On 23 September 2013 18:48, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: > Someone asked recently about a photo hosting sit

A different crop might work better. It's a bit too central for my liking. How about putting the main rock on the thirds by taking some off the left and bottom? Chris On 18 September 2013 05:36, Bill wrote: > Or does it suck either way. > > I can't decide if I prefer the full frame or the crop, w

Yes, very masterful. There's an intriguing colour splash to the right - I'd have liked to see more of that and maybe the whole of the lettering from the shop window; but you'll tell us that there was an ugly car parked there or something... Chris On 16 September 2013 03:01, Daniel J. Matyola wro

Re: The Bight Colorful Streets of Minneapolis

A good set Don. You certainly render to B&W really well. I particularly like the one of the boy, his hat and his reflection. The rest of the reflection draws the eye to comparing what's in the original and what's in the reflection. I spent a couple of minutes studying it. Chris On 13 September 20
