I got my camera back from repair! (finally..) Aengus hasn't forgotten how much he hates having his picture taken, and does his level best to mess with the shot...:cussing2:

Sorry, none here.... I preset the Bigma and camera on the tripod last night, set my alarm, got up on time, checked outside for any cloud cover, grabbed the camera/tripod, and as I was negotiating the screen door, the camera fell from the tripod. The mounting ring was completely ripped from the...

I have heard a "non-dog" howl or two in the woods behind our house on occasion.... Urban coyotes

This is not only the best optical illusion I've ever seen, it is also a concept worth considering when composing shots that include shadow and light. Same color?

CAUTION: Long and rambling! I’m off on a new photographic adventure, and thought I’d take you all along for the ride! :D A while ago I posted about the pending arrival of a Technika V 4x5 large format camera I purchased. The camera arrived in pieces, and was sent back for a refund...

Shift happens

A shot from my garden this morning...

Christmas eve, 1992, a wide-eyed ball of fluff jumped from footprint in the snow to footprint, following my trail to our front door. Today she will leave our front door for the last time. R Ks’ Mojo Queen will cross the bridge today at 11:30 am, 14 years, 6 months, and 15 days after she entered...

But it didn't look like this- instead, it looked like this- It was destroyed in shipping. The entire adjustable back was sheared off at the adjustment rods, the back catch was sheared off, the bellows were ripped, amd one of the rear standard lock down screws...

But I like it! front end/radiator chrome detail of Diamond "T" car

and into the fire, or something like that. My new lens- A Schneider-Kreuznach Super-Angulon Multi-Coated 90mm f8, in a Copal 0 shutter. What's that, you ask? And why is there a shutter release hanging off that bizarre looking thing? And how is that going to fit on my...

A while back someone started a thread about unfinished projects. I was going to add my list, but after compiling, I figured no one wanted to read Moby Dick on NN. :rolleyes: Since putting that list together, I have actually started paring it down. Here's one more I can check off- A year...

I have run Adobe Gamma on both my desktop and my laptop, yet I still see quite visible differences in the two displays. This makes me wonder- Am I doing something wrong? Are the displays that different? (The laptop is two year old Dell D505, and the desktop is a new 22" Xgen2) If I am seeing...
