Backup software is the copy command of whatever platform is hosting the drives when I make the backup: xcopy on Windows, cp on Unix-like systems. I use appropriate command line arguments on the copy commands to prevent the re-copying stuff that hasn't changed. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- 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.

Digital photography - bah!! However, this got me wondering what methods others use to backup their files.. I write all the 0s and 1s down on different pieces of paper, thread them together with waxed cotton (obviously not in the original sequence - I encrypt for security purposes) and keep them in the big green plastic storage box at the front of my house. Then once a week some men from the local council come round with a big lorry called a Vulture, and take my backups offsite.

I've done some ambient light photography of tango with Nikon D700, about half of the photos in this gallery: http://42graphy.org/tango/astf-2010/ But it doesn't always work (espcially with K-7), because in many cases, one needs a reasonable DOF (I find that frequently f/1.4 and even 1.8-2.0 don't provide enough, and even 2.8 is hard to use when the motion is fast and/or close). I took some photos with ISO 1600 and 3200 with my K-7 at the last festival, and they are passable shots, but I am not overly happy with them. Yea, I'm disappointed with the K-7's iso quality too. Maybe I'll go to a place that has dancing and try some shots. You know, looking at your photos posted here (and there are some nice ones there), clearly you have challenges to overcome with respect to light, but in a way, your bigger challenge is all the people sitting around the dancing area :-). Gosh, what to do to minimize their presence :-)? I can see photographing dancers in this context is no easy task. I'm affraid I wasn't very helpful. Cheers, Christine Photography and dancers (How to photograph dancers and how to dance to come out well on photographs) - is a topic of a few workshops that I've given recently, and the topic I am actively working on, hoping to give more of those. Sorry, if I am repeating myself, - I mentioned them a few months ago. Some of the aspects of these workshop are described in these two flyers: http://42graphy.org/news/DancersAndPhotographs-short.pdf http://42graphy.org/news/DancersAndPhotographs.pdf It is a challenging genre, but it's a fun one. We've had several discussions of this question with Larry, who's been doing things similar to what I do (dancing and photographing at the dance events). Besides technical issues, there are also issues related to the specifics of different dances. E.g. after mastering [at some non-zero level] photography of swing dances, it was a new challenge to figure out photographing Argentine tango. As for the surroundings (including the people), - basically, in most cases, you have to deal with whatever you have just from the venue. Often, you have to be aware of obstacles (e.g. mirrors). But sometimes you can use them to your advantage. Here are some examples: http://42graphy.org/swing/abp-2010/sun-classes/_IR_1402.html http://42graphy.org/swing/abp-2010/sun-classes/_IR_1464.html Actually, a flash sometimes helps to separate the foreground from the background, as e.g. in this shot: http://42graphy.komkon.org/swing/parties/west/_IR_2931.html In any case, - I really appreciate your and other people's suggestions and comments.

Larry, two things jumped out at me on first viewing - either give the bottom edge room below the bottom of the flower pot or cut more away from the flower pot to give the image a more finished look -also I'd have moved the POV a little to the right to eliminate the partial view of the plant on that side and include more of the LH arm on the bench.

It was a challenging composition as the bench was fairly tight between a not as pretty doorway and some less than attractive objects on the other side. If I used a short enough focal length to make the flowers large and still show the bench, it was hard to crop out the things I didn't want in the photo. If I used a longer focal length, then in order to include the whole bench, the flowers were a lot smaller than I wanted. I suppose I could have moved the table and flowers closer to the bench and house. -p On 6/5/2011 11:53 AM, Larry Colen wrote: On Jun 5, 2011, at 9:10 AM, Ken Waller wrote: Yep the color combination is attractive - the composition not so much.

What is this : Kipronar f=13cm
Hello All, Today I have found a Carl Zeiss Jena Kipronar 1:1,9 f=135mm lens. I guess this is a lens for projection devices and was built in, perhaps, nineteen forties. It does not seem to be coated. No diaphragm is present. Likewise, no focusing ring... It seems to have two elements (or, groups) at each end. Glass seems fine. It is 140mm long and the diameter is about 76 mm. The middle part consists of a 88 mm- long bright (chrome?) metal. I wonder if I can use this as anything other than a USD 20 paper weight. Can I, perhaps, built a camera which exposes a sensitized surface via this lens? Sort of a view camera? How can I find its flange distance, if there is one? Any ideas?

Grandfather Mountain 2011
It's all history now. Made good time going up there and good time getting back. I think I'm probably the first one home. Left there at about 12:30pm and arrived back here at my apartment at about 4:00pm. I'll think about it a bit and then give y'all a better report. - No virus found in this message.

Re: PESO - In the Bubble
I liked the composition and the beautiful face. The sunburst-like blue lines do contribute...

Her face is really maturing; she's starting to leave the little, little girl look behind. It will continue to be fascinating to watch her grow through your *Grace Pesos*.

Re: Back from GFM
On 5/6/11, Bill Owens, discombobulated, unleashed: We just arrived home from this year's NPW. Phyllis went to the slideshow Friday night while I skipped it. We both skipped Saturday night's presentation and left this morning after breakfast. Hated to miss the Doug and Mark show, but we were both feeling poorly so we decided to come on home. It was great to see everybody though and still thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. Thanks Bill - glad you enjoyed it and hope you and Phyllis feel better soon! -- 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: Arrived in NC
From: Bob W -Original Message- From: pdml-boun...@pdml.net [mailto:pdml-boun...@pdml.net] On Behalf Of Chris Mitchell http://www.robertstech.com/temp/ So let's get this straight - you've just admitted to the world on the premier video social networking site that you've been driving around the countryside while filming with a hand held camera. You've also told the world where you are. Hopefully the cops aren't monitoring it... Don't worry, Chris. I forwarded it to them. What's that phrase they have down there? I bet you can squeal like a pig. W! Wrong state. You're thinking Georgia. - No virus found in this message.
