I metered to prevent clipping of the highlights but in rendering I pushed it up a wee bit so some of the very brightest highlights are clipped. Looked better that way.

It's been a while since I was just able to play with the camera. Y'know, I find I really like photography, I should do it more often! lol. I will say, I enjoy using the focus peaking on the K-01 and zooming in live view, makes it much easier to really nail focus. Now I kinda wish I had one of those 200mm macros to get in closer.

Re: PESO - Subway Sleeper
You love your cycle courier shots don't you mate. Next week we're off to London to see my son's work in an exhibition at his Uni - as far as I'm aware, I think his project is cycle couriers on the streets of London. That's all I know, so if there's anything to link to online, I'll post it to you. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) |Web Video Production --www.seeingeye.tv _ -- 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: OT: snowblower
Over the years, we have been most grateful for neighbors who share our philosophy that more than a few snowblowers per block is excessive. We have an arrangement with the family next door, in which we keep the gas tanks filled, and do the simple repairs to keep it running... and we help ourselves to the machine in their garage when the snow gets too deep heavy to sweep away. Since it's usually up to my teenage son to do the job, there's no danger of it happening before 10am... :) -c On Fri, Jan 10, 2014 at 8:00 AM, CollinB coll...@brendemuehl.net wrote: I have a snow blower and I am not afraid to use it.

PESO: Calorifier Room
A few weeks ago they held an open day at Hillmorton Hospital which occupies part of the site formerly known as Sunnyside Hospital. Sunnyside was opened as a mental asylum in 1863 and closed in 1999. The main building was demolished but many of the more modern outbuildings remain and are still in use today. One of my wife's ancestors spent a little time in the asylum so we went to take a look at the historical display. On the way back to our car I noticed this sign. http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/721/#peso I took the photo using my cellphone and the colours were a bit wonky so I converted to BW.
