The use of an 18% grey card to adjust the apeture/shutter speed with the
available light conditions will usually fix that. Anyone correct me if I'm
wrong.

My answer to the CF storage problem:
1. Invest in a used semi-powerful laptop($600 eBay).
2. Get an extra battery($? eBay) for it.
3. Buy an External 2.5" USB/Firewire storage box(~$50).
4. Buy a 40GB 2.5"HD($82*)for the storage box.
if 3GB holds 212 RAW, then 30GB(don't fill the HD!

Nice B&W photos!
The composition is excellent! You were shooting into the sun?
It seems like you metered the water for the exposure. A cokin red gradual
filter could have darkened up the sky and brought out some clouds as well as
darkened the buildings. IMHO, I would like to see the sky burne

I have also enlarged these negatives in the darkroom with mixed results
(after a few "test" papers). I had to use a high contrast filter (#4) to
get more contrast. I also had to use an aperture of at least 5.6 (50mm) on
a Beseler 23CII enlarger. More problems arose when I tried to print con

I like the composition of this photo! Strange that two of the kids have
coats and the other two don't. I have but one concern, my eye keeps being
distracted by the bright car in the background. Does anyone else think this
or am I crazy?
I still like the photo,

I really like the comedic flavor of this photo! I don't know if that was
your intention, but it made me laugh. Thank you.

Hiya,
I have not used the monopods you have listed, but I do have the Manfrotto
682B, and I like it. The only problem is that the tripod legs clank inside
the body when I use it as a walking stick (and who doesn't?). It gets
annoying and attracts too much attention. I bought the rubber spik

An iron works pretty good too. Get two pieces of Pizza and press them

the iron against the outside. Heat to the desired temperature.

I agree with Shel in that a charming moment is caught. I also like the
composition. Great shot!
I would probably erase the guy with the khakhi shorts, white socks, and
white shirt holding a water bottle with his arms crossed. Is that too much
detail? ;) In his place I would plant grass. H
Paul,
How did you get the dog to cooperate? Apart from neat composition, I really
like the way the dog and the sky reflects off of the car. Did you crop the
photo? It doesn't matter, I still like this picture.
BTW, when is the next Michigan PDML outing?

I just bought that lens a month ago from Wells Digital for $573.95USD. It's
an amazing lens. I used it in conjunction with the Sigma 2x teleconverter
for an outdoor concert at night. The viewfinder was so bright that I
watched most of the show through the viewfinder. :D

Lasse,
You can just roll the film out (and roll it back in). I've done it and it
does works. I've also cut the film out to print in a B&W lab.
Here is how (with pics):

Hope this helps.
