Re: June PUG is up

[Eric Featherstone]

Thanks Rick!
The lighting is simply whatever is stuck to the roof of my shed - two
strips of LED tape - and the daylight coming in through the door. So I
got lucky there. There were shots at a couple of apertures, but that
one was the DOF I liked best.

Regards,
Eric.

PESO : Urban Neowise

Here's my attempt from a couple of nights ago (it was cloudy in that
direction last night and probably for the rest of the week.) With
London light pollution I couldn't see it with the naked eye, only with
binoculars or on the camera's LCD after taking the photo.

Re: OT network storage

Easy enough. Apart from the very initial setup, you control it through
a webpage on the device itself which includes a control panel for
creating users, passwords, formatting disks etc and a file manager for
creating folders.

Yes. Specifically the DS210j bought in the summer of 2010 and the
DS214se bought at the end of 2013 (my sister's family got the 210j at
that point.)
They're both still going strong, and the DS214se still seems to get OS updates.

Navigate to a folder, or All Photographs in the navigator then from the menu
Library / Previews / Build 1:1 Previews
or
Library / Previews / Build Standard Sized Previews
(and it'll probably prompt you with Build full previews for all photos
or only one? if you only had one photo selected.)

(This is on 5.7.1 for Windows.)

8 gigs? The problem is that if I identified it correctly as the 2006
model then it only accepts 3 gigs max.

I'm not an expert but when I looked at "One that was not" my first
thought was camera shake. I would have thought that a focal length of
87mm @ 1/125 second would have been ok but it looks shaky to me.

Oddly the "One that was improved by editing" has no camera shake even
at a fl of 225mm @ 1/125 s, which is where I would expect shake to
start to come into play. So clearly you can hold it steady.

And then when I saw the Fuji shot my first thought was "Hey, come on,
you're not being fair at all" :-)
The Pentax shots were indoors in dull dim light, the Fuji outside in
bright sunlight; of course the Fuji shot will pop more.
That's in addition to what people have said about pro lens vs
consumer, and short lens vs long etc.

But that's just my guesses.

Stubs of a twin boom tail,

Re: Windows tech knowledge guys - regarding Adobe Flash HELP

[Eric Featherstone]

It might be a setting in chrome. Flash can be blocked by default,
allowed by default, blocked or allowed per website etc.

clicking this link (when using the chrome web browser) should take you
to chrome's setting for flash.

chrome://settings/content/flash

But pj's link might also solve it for you.

The speed tester at : http://beta.speedtest.net/
doesn't require flash, so you should be good to go.
(Their legacy speedtest page does require flash, so don't bother with that.)

FWIW Chrome has flash built in, and when chrome auto-updates it also
updates its version of flash. Personally I'm reluctant to install
flash other than as part of chrome for that reason.

Re: Fwd: ???

[Eric Featherstone]

Jack,

It seems to me that you've only uploaded the one photo to photo.net. You
may think you've uploaded more, but there's only the one you posted earlier
visible in your gallery here.

https://www.photo.net/10949212#/

Maybe the others are set to private or something? I'm just guessing.

Eric.

Re: Why did my K1 not go automatically to DST?

[Eric Featherstone]

Just because the K-1 has a GPS doesn't mean it knows about DST. For
that you need an extra file of info listing for every country in the
world the dates that DST in that country begins and ends. My Garmin
gps for example has such a list (and that list gets regular updates)
and the firmware to make use of such a list. I doubt Pentax implements
such a scheme or distributes such a list. Understanding timezones is
bad enough [1], understanding the continually changing DST laws is
harder. That's why there's the DST checkbox in the menu system.

If you mean this:

then personally I would uninstall that and just re-format the drive.
It'll be more reliable and probably better performance I'd have

Re: PESO Stepping stones

[Eric Featherstone]

Looking between the cropped/uncropped I think I found the vast bulk of
foreground tree (top-right) to be more of a problem than the sky. It
seemed a little overwhelming, and cropping helps reduce that a bit. I
think I slightly favour the original though. :)

The one with more features in the sky is a third shot I threw in
there, which might have confused.

Thanks for commenting, all useful.

Re: PESO Stepping stones

[Eric Featherstone]

Well I decided to try a crop something like Ken suggested:
https://flic.kr/p/NRsvBg
For reference, here's the original https://flic.kr/p/Nv3gsy

(And another from a slightly different viewpoint https://flic.kr/p/MTiNUe )

Comments welcome of course.

It's only the stones right in the foreground that don't have water
flowing between them.

Thanks Ann. It's just a local path as far as I know. There's a ford
parallel to it for the farmer to drive to his fields.

 It's been a damp couple of weeks here in New Hampshire, and I've been

 This afternoon it was pouring outside, so I put on my
 weather-resistant jacket and hat, and took my weather-resistant K-5
 (with my non-WR 50-200, and a chamois) out to shoot. I chose a
 subject, and stepped up through apertures and shutter speeds; then
 came inside to dry off and see what I had.

 The answer was, "not much." This was the best of the bunch (1/125,
 f/8, ISO 3200):

 So, how does one get those streaking raindrops, and have the splashes
 when they land look like something?

Re: first day review

The DA-L version is the DA version without a hood and with a plastics rather

 So i used the 55-300 at the plowing demo yesterday. Hot humid and

 K-5 and my hand zoom barrel stiff but thats fine. Barrel fully
 extended makes for a bit of a shaky hand held. IQ and sharpness seem
 decent enough. Only thing and i'm not sure its due to the lens or the
 camera metering but when using the 17-70 or the 50-200 a +.3 EV
 correction is needed. I used +0.7 and all of the DNG's are still way
 under exposed. I would normally get a small amount of under exposure
 shooting into the sun with my other lenses but every shot, into the
 sun or with the sun, is quite a bit under exposed. I'll need to adjust
 every one in LR.
 
 Any thoughts on this.

Re: PESO - Golden Pavilion 2

[Eric Featherstone]

Thanks. I guess it might, both Japanese formal gardens and bonsai have
a highly manicured nature look.

PESO Sagano bamboo grove

[Eric Featherstone]

Another from Kyoto, last January.

Between nonomiya shrine and the back of tenryuji is a walk through
Sagano bamboo grove.

According to a couple of friends who were there late last year, in
November it's still popular and crowded despite being so late in the
season. However by January the temperature around Kyoto has dropped to
nearly freezing, and there aren't that many tourists bothering to come
here.

PESO moss garden

[Eric Featherstone]

Again, from Kyoto, but on the western side this time in the Arashiyama
district.

I'd been planning to go to tenryuji (literally heavenly dragon temple)
to see the dragon that's supposed to look back at you wherever you
stand. But it was closed. I guess the dragon was tired what with all
the looking around it must have to do.

So I went next door to nonomiya shrine which is much smaller and has a
moss garden.

I think only one of the versions has the preview, the second one here:

(But once you're viewing the preview you seem to be able to choose

Re: GESO: Old cars with a new camera.

[Eric Featherstone]

If you meant this one:
http://users.accesscomm.ca/wrphoto/pictures/cars2/content/WRK10180_large.html
it looks like a Jaguar XK120. The XK140 is very similar but I think
had fewer bars in the grill and a chrome strip down the centreline of
the bonnet.

PESO 金閣寺 Golden Pavilion

[Eric Featherstone]

A (very) occasional PESO:

In January I went to Japan, primarily for skiing, but spent the first
few days in Tokyo with an overnight trip to Kyoto before following my
bags north to Hokkaido. It's not my first time in Japan, but it is the
first time I've been there in winter.

This is the Golden Pavilion, part of a temple complex dating back to
the late 1300's on the northern edge of Kyoto.

By the person who went to their local car garage asking for a new "710 cap"?

The badge in Paul's photo says Mini :-)

Note that the mini name was also used in the '90s when Rover group
owned the marque, and I'd say that badge and car date from that era.

It may well not be luna or polyphemus, that was just my best guess
after searching around the web.

I hadn't thought about rotating it before, thanks for that idea.
