RE: GESO Jazz at the Gate
From: pdml-boun...@pdml.net [mailto:pdml-boun...@pdml.net] On Behalf Of Bruce Walker http://goo.gl/dl8F2 very nice - I'm just back from an evening at Ronnie Scott's watching Pharaoh Sanders and his band - awesome. B Lucky you! Pix or it didn't happen. :-) no pictures allowed, although the friend who invited me may have got one. If he did I'll show it. Sometimes I wish I'd been born in the '30's so I'd have grown up during the 50's hot jazz scene -- much of my favourite music. It might as well be embalmed and displayed in museums now for all the attention it gets. Some of Canada's A-list players get $100 a gig at local bars like The Pilot in Yorkville. I think these guys probably get more than that - Ronnie Scott's is quite expensive. In 30 years of living in London it's my first time at Ronnie Scott's. On the other hand, I did once see Ronnie Scott play live, with Humphrey Littleton, many years ago, at Kew Gardens and that was a lot of fun. I have to admit I know next to nothing about jazz. I had never heard of Pharaoh Sanders before yesterday. But some friends who are big fans of his had booked a table and I went on the spur of the moment. Had a fantastic time though - what a great band they are.

PUG Extra - PDML Photo Annual 2011 Refuses
G'day all A week or two back several people provided links to their photos that were not selected for the 2011 PDML Annual. I suggested a special PUG to display those images together, so that we could all enjoy them. The PUG Submission form has been updated for this special Extra Gallery and is now open for submissions. You can submit here: http://pug.komkon.org/submit/ Image constraints are the same as for the monthly PUGs: * Max. pixel dimensions: 800 x 800 pixels * Max file size: 300k The cut off date for submissions will be about 17 May. Come on! Let's see 'em. Now - can anyone suggest a better title for the gallery? As most are aware, the idea of submitting more than one photo for consideration for the Annual was to give the editors scope to select images that best fitted the context and layout of the Album. This means that images not included in the Annual were probably of similar quality to those that were included. So, I don't think refuses is an accurate title, but my feeble brain can't come up with anything better.

Re: GESO Jazz at the Gate
Thank you, Ann. My winning formula in these small, dark music venues: - fast, short tele prime (eg 50mm 1.4), wide open, - high ISO (eg 1600 on the K20), - RAW, - aperture priority, - places/things to brace yourself against while shooting (chair arms, table tops, walls), - some noise reduction s/w in PP (LR3 is doing it for me now) - if the brightest light is only on the musicians, use center or spot metering; otherwise matrix should be fine. Lastly: worst-case, be prepared to pack it in and just enjoy the music. :-) -bmw On 11-05-02 9:36 PM, Ann Sanfedele wrote: Those work well, Bruce ..

Re: I've had three photos accepted into the PPG
You get to submit 10 a week - I chuckled at that first one - and liked the other two, though not my type of thing at all - very well done. on your artist page it should list them in order of accepted, ready for review, and declined. Someone on list told me in terms of the membership votes when you hit 12 thumbs down before you get to 60 thumbs up you're out. Once you get to 60 thumbs up then the chiefs select. Someone suggested to me to resubmit something that was declined after awhile as the membership seeing it would be different but I tried with a couple, including the ones in this years annual and they both got turned down... again... I havent submitted much, because I don't have enough recent stuff that would make my cut... and when I got back to old chromes I have to dig up my travel notes to see which camera I shot with and which lens... sometimes I know .. but sometimes I didn't note exact lens. the 50mm f2.0? or the 50mm f1.7?

Re: GESO Jazz at the Gate
I was shooting 1600 , - RAW of course, istD I always shoot ap priority :-) however, 1600 was much too noisy because of the low light. and the venue was someone's loft. The biggest problem was that the AWB let me down - and I didn't have a way to lean on anything... worse, the camera was noisy... and I had not brought the tripod. The lighting was from track lights meant to light the artwork in the loft. The light was low because they musicians were sweltering and the windows ahd to stay closed because of the neighborhood. wasnt fun... Dom's girlfriend had a flimsy tripod for video shooting... when she abandoned it I tried to use it...but it didn't help much anyway - between my instability and the digital noise I couldn't ever show them to you guys. ann Bruce Walker wrote: Thank you, Ann. My winning formula in these small, dark music venues: - fast, short tele prime (eg 50mm 1.4), wide open, - high ISO (eg 1600 on the K20), - RAW, - aperture priority, - places/things to brace yourself against while shooting (chair arms, table tops, walls), - some noise reduction s/w in PP (LR3 is doing it for me now) - if the brightest light is only on the musicians, use center or spot metering; otherwise matrix should be fine.

OT - again, about rights
Dear All, We discussed the legal aspects of using photos of the people in various cases. Now, I am trying to see how that applies to a video. I am especially interested in hearing opinion of the people who have dealt with similar issues. A specific situation is as follows: 1. an event is open to public and includes dance classes; 2. the rules of the event do not forbid to take videos; 3. at the end of a dance class, the instructors offer everybody who wants to take a video of a short summary (without stating any restrictions on the use). In this situation, what do you think, - can the people (instructors) appearing in the video restrict the use of the videos taken at a later point? In particular, - do they have a right to demand that the video is not posted publically (e.g. on Youtube) - retroactively? Thank you in advance for your thoughts on this issue.

Re: A bit of a boast and my JAlbum book

Thus each pair of photos is a spread. Accidentally one of the photos of Galia's book is obviously heavily processed (by me). That's my mistake, really. As you can see, most of these are PESOs, PUGs and some of them appeared in PDML Annual books by Mark. But I should say that in print they look better than on the screen. At least to me, although of course I am not a disinterested party here. Some nice pictures there, Boris, thanks for sharing. Others are not that impressive if looked separately, but I understand that they are part of the story that you want to tell with the whole book. I am sure that the printed version is better for this.

Re: OT - again, about rights
Larry, I am interested in the legal aspect of the discussed situation: Does the subject of a video, if he/she didn't object/restrict the recording as it was happening openly, have a right to make any demands with respect to the non-commercial distribution of the video (if no money is made from that/charged). As for the attitude of different instructors, - this is a completely separate issue. My take on it is that the best instructors do not fear their short (usually without any explanations) class summaries to be posted. Brief class summaries do not replace class participation and instructions; nor they compete with the instructional videos sold by the instructors. These videos are a great advertisement for the events and instructors Several dance instructors thanked me for posting videos of their demonstrations on Youtube. Those instructors who seriously think that their class can be replaced with a short, typically 1-2 min, summary, - are not worth my time for going to their lessons.

Re: OT - again, about rights
It depends on the legal system that has jurisdiction. Just look at the issues that Google is having with StreetView; there's no uniformity in what they are or are not allowed to do - it has to be separately adjudicated in each country. On Tue, May 03, 2011 at 03:55:09PM -0400, Igor Roshchin wrote: Larry, I am interested in the legal aspect of the discussed situation: Does the subject of a video, if he/she didn't object/restrict the recording as it was happening openly, have a right to make any demands with respect to the non-commercial distribution of the video (if no money is made from that/charged). As for the attitude of different instructors, - this is a completely separate issue. My take on it is that the best instructors do not fear their short (usually without any explanations) class summaries to be posted. Brief class summaries do not replace class participation and instructions; nor they compete with the instructional videos sold by the instructors. These videos are a great advertisement for the events and instructors Several dance instructors thanked me for posting videos of their demonstrations on Youtube. Those instructors who seriously think that their class can be replaced with a short, typically 1-2 min, summary, - are not worth my time for going to their lessons.

Re: OT - again, about rights
In the US, if you are in a place open to the general public, and no prior restrictions were put in place as a condition of your admission, you can generally make non-commercial use of your own images, videos, etc. There are some restrictions (you aren't allowed to photograph the TSA screeners at the airport, for example), but that's the general rule. Mind you, you'll get a whole lot of grief if you try to take pictures in a public area showing small children at play. And some jurisdictions try to claim it's an offence to take pictures of the Police if they don't want you to. While as far as I know no such legislation has stood up to a legal challenge, you can end up with a whole lot of grief if you insist. More relevant to your case, perhaps, might be the example of seasonal displays at shopping malls (Santa's Grotto, the Easter Bunny, etc.). There will usually be explicit notices stating that using your own camera is prohibited. While I'm not sure that they could actually do anything to prevent you (other than ask you to leave), I'd generally recommend that one should comply with such requests. But in the absence of such a notice, there's not a lot they can do a posteori. I am talking about USA, where all the action is happening described in the previous message.

Power-cycling the camera will get you more time, I've found. It could just be that the battery-level detection circuit design is fubar. But you can get batteries that exhibit less voltage droop before losing most of their charge. Try the newer 2450 mAH Energizers.
