PESO A Hummer Does Weed
I haven’t seen may hummingbirds since May, even though I had a feeder and some bee balm. Maybe the neighbors had better offerings. But one showed up today to suck on the Veronica, which is generally considered a flowering weed. https://www.photo.net/photo/18490610/A-Hunner-Does-Weed -- 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.

Great catch and ideal bokehi. You indicated it had been shot some time ago. Might it have been shot with the K20 ?

PESO Butterfly
I have no idea what sort, he was hanging out in my yard yesterday. Shot with the bigma 50-500 https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/30156958808/in/album-72157700185090275/ I actually felt like I was getting better shots when I switched to the DA 55-300, better magnification at the close end, but I think this one ended up being the best of the series. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/collections/72157612824732477/ -- 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: Lightroom Question
I'm using Photoshop CS6 with ACR 9.1.1 and also LIghtroom v6.0. I only have two newer lenses - DFA 28-105 and DFA 15-30 - but profiles for both seem to be supported, even though Adobe says they are not. Screenshots: http://www.markcassino.com/b2evolution/index.php/lens-correction-in-acr-9?blog=9 The only thing is that neither ACR or Lightroom detect the unsupported lenses. When I check "enable profile correction" nothing happens but if I then select Pentax under "Make"both ACR and LR detect the lens at that point and load the profile. The officially supported lenses are automatically detected without the lens make being entered. This does not make the lens name appear in the file's exif data, but I think that running the raw files through an up to date version of Adobe DNG converter will add that info.
