Ooh! A truly iconic representation of human society being reduced to the microcosm of circuitry. The looping wires representing the convoluted path. to the ancient biological interfaces, roughly scribbled words on plywood like the modern echo of primitive cave drawings. So moving. . . .
Nice and sharp too. It's got a cast, though, and you probably should adjust the white balance. ;-))) >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/30/04 12:29AM >>> If the camera can guess correctly 95% of the time then that is beneficial. The *ist D is a great camera, but that doesn't mean that one shouldn't use it for snapshots when a snapshot is what one is going for. All photographs don't need to be artistic or even enjoyable. Often they are just documentary and are there to show something which is hard to explain in words. This is the only picture that I've shot this week: http://phred.org/~alex/pictures/wiring/reduced/IMGP3493.JPG It is a picture of my router. Is it artistic? No. Was it helpful to a friend who wondered what it looked like? Yes. Did I take it with the *ist D? Yes. Sometimes I just shoot with the *ist D in S *** mode and upload pictures straight from the camera with no editing because I want to put something online. In these cases autorotation can save a little bit of time and has no downsides that I'm aware of. alex On Tue, 29 Jun 2004, Herb Chong wrote: > so what is different between that and not doing anything? > > Herb... > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "alex wetmore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2004 8:07 PM > Subject: Re: wouldn't it be nice > > > > Every file format produced by the Pentax *ist D can be rotated losslessly. > > Whatever orientation a sensor produces could always be considered a > > best guess, and you could re-rotate it as you prefer afterwords. > > >
