Re: Wal-Mart and film processing
A bit delayed, but maybe it is helpful. Of all the non-specialized labs, I like Wal-Mart's one-hour service. It looks like its relatively consistent acceptable quality. They usually don't mind redoing the prints if you don't like the colors, they do matte finish, and by doing it locally there is a smaller risk of a mixup. I've used Wal-Mart 1-hour service in IL, MA, various parts of CA, and probably elsewhere.. As for send-out labs, I had parts of my negatives lost and had somebody's else negatives put together with mine when I tried to used send-out services from Sams Club and from K-Mart. So I decided that the savings were not worth my frustrations. Later on, that thought brough me to professional photo labs...

Re: Get your flu shots everyone, and wash your hands!
On 10/10/07, Rick Womer, discombobulated, unleashed: Handwashing. It's all about handwashing. There are astonishingly few things that are actually transmitted through the air. At the University of Rochester years ago, about 2/3 of the pediatric residents picked up a nasty cold virus called RSV during their first year. A very aggressive hand hygiene program cut that to 10 percent. Similar studies abound. I would bet that your general pediatrician friend's hand hygiene isn't up to snuff... Rick is spot on. I film in a whole variety of situations every day, including schools and hospitals. At the end of every job, once back at the truck, I have some antiseptic wipes and my hands get the once over. I do get flu, but usually caught from my wife and/or son. BTW Rick are you still on for the International OCD Cleaning convention ? ;-) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=|http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PUG themes for 2008
Hi Scott here's the wikipedia list of red shirts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshirt - I assume it is the penultimate one you are referring to? Perhaps we could try fitting pictures to the other definitions as well? I kinda like the cannon fodder theme. Alastair Redshirt (college sports) Redshirt (character), a stock cannon fodder character in fiction, particularly in Star Trek: The Original Series Redshirts (military history), one of the followers of Giuseppe Garibaldi Redshirts (military history), Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army The Red Shirts, South African shack dwellers' movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo Red Shirts, a paramilitary organization in Mexico in the 1930's Kuilix, a Pend d'Oreilles woman whose name meant Red Shirt or Red One Delphine Red Shirt, an Oglala Lakota Sioux writer Red Shirt, South Dakota Red Shirt (Factory), a post civil war Southern organization Red Shirts (South Carolina), supporters of Wade Hampton in South Carolina for the gubernatorial election of 1876 Khudai Khidmatgar, a non-violent movement of Pashtuns against the British Empire in the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan Red Shirt School of Photography, a growing trend in the 1950s, pioneered by National Geographic photographers, to have subjects wear overly colourful clothes Redshirt, the encryption scheme used in the Introversion Software games Darwinia and Uplink On 10/10/07, Scott Loveless [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Rick Womer wrote: Scott, As you say, there is a lot of overlap; too much to be really stimulating, I think. Nature, Landscape, Macro, Synchronicity all tend in the same direction. Then there's Red shirt?!?! Rick Thanks, Rick. I think a little overlap isn't necessarily bad. Unless one had a model train set with real plants, it would awfully hard to satisfy nature, landscape and macro with one photograph. But perhaps we could turn them into two themes instead of three. Nature/landscapes and macro/close up. These allow quite a lot of interpretation within the same theme while not limiting participation due to a lack of specialty lenses. Same for fashion/glamour and portraits. I have a feeling, though, that combining them into simply a portrait theme would probably leave us without too much fashion and glamour. I like fashion and glamour. Especially with long legs. As for Red shirt, I thought you would know about that one. Look it up. g I guess we need a couple more themes. I'll dig some more. How does aerial photography sound to everyone? Seriously, Bill laid it out rather plainly during a previous discussion of PUG themes, and I'm trying to abide: William Robb wrote: The PUG is supposed to be as inclusive a gallery as possible. This means that themes should be doable with fairly basic equipment, and that the subject shouldn't be exclusive to certain parts of the world. William Robb I think the themes thus far adhere to that philosophy rather well, allowing much more liberal interpretation than flower or Halloween. --- Scott Loveless [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've put together a list of 12 themes for 2008. I've tried to stay away from the more abstract themes and focus more on photographic genres, in hopes that some of us will actually go try something new. The list with notes (not in order, necessarily): Documentary/photojournalism 'Tis the season - I thought February would be a good month, allowing plenty of time to go through your Christmas/Festivus/New Year/whatever photos. Fashion/glamour Portrait Photowalking - you guys are good at this, so it's pretty much a done deal. :-P Macro/close-up Red shirt Landscape Nature Equinox/synchronicity (x2) - I thought it would be nice to do this twice, but I'm open to other suggestions. The equinox is near the end of March and September, putting some serious time constraints on those of us with other things to do. Having the relevant PUGs in May and November would give everyone ample time to edit. Etc - Yes, this is a theme. Walt Hamler proposed it and several people said something like Cool! Basically, one month devoted to whatever the hell you feel like shooting. A Super-PESO, if you will. As you can see, there is quite some overlap of themes, such as nature, macro and landscape, for example. I would expect nothing less than a very liberal interpretation from this group.

Godfrey Er, cough, er, yes, Godfrey. I get all that -- the difference between the library and OS folders. I just needed to print out your post because it was dense to read, not because I don't get it. Although you may have forgotten, I am computer programmer. I may not know assembly language, and I may not understand some hardware things, like how a RAID card works, but I am highly highly computer literate. Although maybe it will help someone else. :-) Okay, it seems Lightroom will not behave the way I want when it comes to subdirectories. I made the mistake of not importing the top directories, although Lightroom didn't seem to allow me to. But I imported my Elements 5 catalogue and that is probably how top directories got skipped. I would prefer that subdirectories pictures only show in the subdirectory film strips not in the top directory film strips. The way Lightroom currently works, it makes my subdirectory structure sort of useless. So I guess I will have to make all subdirectories top directories. I already see two features that I wish Lightroom had. 1. An option/preference that can be selected to make pictures only show in subdirectory folders, not top directories. 2. A batch synchronize folders routine. Where one can pick out a HD or a top directory and have Lightroom synchronize the whole thing. Import pictures added since the last time the batch synchronization has been run. In my current library setup, for instance, my drive J is not at the top level. If I could have drive J at the top level (with no film strip), then I could click on it and synchronize folders and it could synchronize the whole drive. So some way to do a batch synchronization like that would be nice. Thanks for your answers though, you answered my questions in your first post.

Not great weather, but we all know what bad weather and cameras can do.:-) Pretty foggy out for the weekend, but i managed to get a few like this one. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6514345 I was attracted to the single tree and i love this old train trestle. I have a few BW shots from previous years up there in Madawaska. D200, 18-70 zoom and levels and S/H in PSCS2 That's a lovely shot, Dave. Maybe it's the warm nights we've had up to now, but the foliage isn't very colourful this year, and I've seen several instances where (like here) there's a lone red tree among green and yellow trees. I just haven't been able to capture them in a meaningful way. I like this one, though... cheers, frank -- Sharpness is a bourgeois concept. -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: WTB - SMC-A 20mm 2.8
Pentax A-series lenses sell out fast everywhere in the past year. For Cotty's purposes, an M or K series lens of similar quality would do the same thing, of course, since he's going to remove the little bugger's pecker. ];-) G On Oct 11, 2007, at 11:00 AM, P. J.

Re: WTB - SMC-A 20mm 2.8
Unfortunately, the M and K equivalents are only f4.0 so they won't really meet Cotty's requirements. I can't condone his unnatural experiments but he has a right to do them...

Re: WTB - SMC-A 20mm 2.8
Godfrey, The lens designs for the M and K 20mm are different and f4.0. Regards, Bob S.

Re: What's that Site?
Just out of curiosity I decided to look at the ratings for the K10D. This site mixes equipment ratings with store ratings and seems to offer no way to disambiguate the two. It seems really awful to me. I doubt it would be much use for product research.

Re: Peso Remains
Nice one Dave - it looks like you activated the way back machine. Kenneth Waller http://tinyurl.com/272u2f - Original Message - From: David J Brooks [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Peso Remains http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6518161 Did some playing this past weekend with the onboard filters with the Fn button. Shot this old trapper property, the cabin was burned down this spring, and only the shed and and hu...sub office remain. I shot in colour and used the sepia filter set to low. In PSCS i applied a bit of cyan photofilter. I know its not as great as what PS could do, but its pleseantly ok.
