Re: SV: I have committed a book
Jostein, Did you make the book using the blurb software? Or did you make it in lightroom, indesign or something else that will let you export a PDF copy? It's an excellent collection of photos by the way. I suspect that 1) You could just print them up and have a show ready to go. 2) You could use the book to advertise photo trips to California and the SouthWest states. How many people signing up would it take to finance you for a trip? Set up several consecutive week long trips that people could sign up for whichever ones they wanted/could afford. I suspect that photos of Sunny California (tm) would make for a very attractive travel brochure in Oslo, sometime around March.

Re: SV: I have committed a book
The book was designed inside Lightroom. In LR-5 you don't have to save as PDF and then upload. There's a button for direct upload to Blurb that takes care of the whole thing.

SV: I have committed a book
Ann put it quite succinctly. :-) Actually, I think about half the shots in the book are produced around sunrise or sunset. Another fourty percent are from normal hours, and the rest are night shots. I totally agree with Ann and the others commenting on the quality of the light. I certainly prefer the light that happens when the sun is close to the horizon. Another factor is that I soon realised that the midday hours were the best for doing the transport legs. I could be more efficient if arriving at a new place with a couple of daylight hours left to do reconnoisance, procure maps, pay entrance fees to parks, etc. Jostein -Opprinnelig melding- Fra: Alan C Dato: 6. januar 2014 20:44 Til: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Emne: Re: I have committed a book Quite amazing.

A three weeks roadtrip for an area the size of whole of Scandinavia (at least), can't be anything but touch-and-go. In my honest opinion that makes all pictures obtained this way into travelogue shots regardless of the sun's position in the sky at the time of pressing the button. To be honest, I mentally regard the whole trip as reconnoisance for further trips some time in the future. In particular I'd love to go back to the High Sierras and to Death Valley. Awesome places that deserve a lot more attention than I had time to give them.
