Very nice. The receding DOF makes it intriguing.

I took a break from being Larry’s voice controlled light stand, and shot a few 
pictures myself, borrowing his macro lenses.

I particularly liked the daisy shots:  https://flic.kr/p/EcssKG

Boris - the second and third I like quite a lot.. beautiful light in the 
second and

the third is a thoughtful and interesting composition... two thumbs up here.

"reading" not so much for two reasons... The woman looks like she is 
about to fall off the railing to me.. and
most of the photo is taken up with what is out of focus in the 
background...

As you show repetedly, they seem to work together beautifully.

All three scenes might have looked ordinary to the passers by

The background blur in "Reading", the rays of the hidden sun in "Light"

Re: Boris PESO x3 (repost)

[Boris Liberman]

Bulent,

You're very kind.

And there is need to feel envy, really. I mean - it is just a few 
seconds away - dismount whatever lens is mounted on your Ricoh GXR-M 
right now and mount the Biogon. Without hood (but with filter to mask 
that silver ring to which hood attaches) and with the EVF this becomes 
neat little combo - nifty fifty in a way.


Although I am buying Olympus EM-1 and 12-40/2.8 for my ordinary 
shooting, Ricoh and these Zeiss lenses remains the gear that gives me 
the best result both as far as the process/fun is concerned and in terms 
of final image as well. I cannot possibly recommend this enough :-).

PESO Focused

[Paul Stenquist]

I’m getting around pretty well now, and i had hoped to shoot some birds from 
the deck with temps hitting the upper 50s. But brisk winds kept them in hiding. 
I eventually gave up and wandered around the house a bit with the 150-450 
mounted. Shot Grace working on the laptop. Plus 2 stops exposure comp, ISO 
1250, f4.5, 1/60th, 190 mm. Nothing special, but nice to know i can handhold 
that lens reasonably well.

Re: OT : Epson R1900 - worth going into debt for?

[ann sanfedele]

I'm with Paul on this point too...  I was still making wet prints and 
developing my own film as late as 2005... and though
most of the time bay photo (all my smugmug stuff gets printed there you 
know)   does an outstanding job, they didmess

up a couple of times, rather badly.

Larry - I'm not buying a new printer JUST to print a big calendar... My 
r220 probably won't last forever and I'd
have to have one anyway... I print out stuff all the time ... labels, 
letters, shopping lists, to do lists, online instructions...decals

to print t shirts with,etc..

I'm a bit obsessive, but that's the way I like it.




That is a very good reason for me not get a printer, I certainly do 
not need to learn how by spending more money, and a lot more time, per 
print, I could make them just enough better that I am no longer

 I'd pass on this one; it's a little too old, technology-wise. It uses
 pigment inks, so print longevity shouldn't be an issue, but it's an
 older ink set that doesn't use the multiple black inks for good B
 printing that I think you need.

As long as you don't want to print any B the R1900 should be OK.

Re: OT : Epson R1900 - worth going into debt for?

[ann sanfedele]

at the moment I'm hoping to get it for UNDER $200 but don't know..

The calendar is like the wall calendars I get every year on cafe 
press... except bigger.. for the 13 x 19 I found
the Epson ultra premium persentation paper MATTE worked perfectly... the 
non photo side took the calendar grid
and doesn't bleed through when I write on it. ...each calendar is 
13pages, including the cover.


I need a printer all the time anyway... and once having used the r2400 
I'm hooked.   I can make presents for
friends, and I can make the calendar grid look better than the cafepress 
one. If I skip getting the comb binding done
at my local Fed ex,  I can probably keep the cost down to under 
$20each.  I'll still keep doing the cafepress ones to

sell...

The r2400 fit here, so the 1900 should - but thanks for the Costco 
suggestion... however, Costco is useless for me -

and no where near me either.

Another thing to consider is that if you can settle for 12x18, Costco 
has great printers, publish the ICC color profiles and 12x18 prints 
are $4 each.  I'm not sure that you can print them yourself for that 
little money, once the dust has settled, even neglecting the cost of 
the printer.  If you don't have access to a costco (or a membership 
card), if you sent me the files, I could get them printed for you and 
just mail them to you.  Starting out at $200 for the printer, that 
means the first 40 or so prints would effectively be for free.


I also suspect that there may be a couple people on this list who 
already have much better printers who would be willing to run off a 
couple dozen prints for you for a nominal fee, or failing that a 
pro-photog friend of mine may also be willing to do that. There is 
also Bay photo, a bit pricier, but top notch work.


Unless you have a lot of excess space in your apartment, and cash, I 
suspect that the printer probably falls into the category of things 
that are cheaper to rent than to own.




This is the listing, btw, on ebay - and then there is one on Amazon 
too..


http://www.ebay.com/itm/291692428694?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT 




Figure another $200 -$300 I could manage. The guy is in NH so the
shipping isnot too terrible. I might not win it of course...

The other one I saw was on Amazon - there were several , actually, but
most from sellers with low ratings.

If cafepress had not stopped making 11x17 calendars I wouldn't even
think of buying the large printer...

So, does this alter any of your thoughts about it?

I'd pass on this one; it's a little too old, technology-wise. It uses

older ink set that doesn't use the multiple black inks for good B
printing that I think you need.

thats good to know, Jack

I don't think you saw an error.. it falls into the category of "if

The R1800 uses just two blacks; Matte and Photo.
While no "dedicated" B setting, it can do a very
good B print...if in the mood.

 since it is your garden, you can wait for

As you show repetedly, they seem to work together beautifully.

All three scenes might have looked ordinary to the passers by
while you have succeeded in getting beautiful images.
The background blur in "Reading", the rays of the hidden sun in "Light"

Hi!

The change from rainy and cold winter to sunny and dry spring was
extremely abrupt this year... Next week we'll be having already the
second hamsin (temperatures significantly higher than season average)
- more than +30C...

Few photos for you to look at:

http://pentax-ways.blogspot.co.il/2016/02/2016-06-reading.html
http://pentax-ways.blogspot.co.il/2016/02/2016-07-light.html
http://pentax-ways.blogspot.co.il/2016/02/2016-08-its-all-in-eyes.html

On a gear front, I've placed an order for Olympus MD EM-1 with
12-40/2.8 zoom lens. ETA is 2 weeks and I will be posting more when/if
it arrives.

Meanwhile - any comments, especially brutal and honest, on my photos
will be greatly appreciated.

Re: OT : Epson R1900 - worth going into debt for?

[ann sanfedele]

Paul,Mark, Godders
Ok let me tell you why I want one... I want to print matte 13 x 19 wall 
calendars next year... mainly for myself and
my friend Joe (who has done more for me in life than I can ever repay 
and always wants a really bigbig calendar of
flowers ) but possibly to make a few to sell to other of my friends here 
who want a large one..
 The R2400 filled the bill - is this r1900 close enough to this to get 
pretty much the same results?

I notice that the ink isn't too expensive...

This is the listing, btw, on ebay - and then there is one on Amazon too..

http://www.ebay.com/itm/291692428694?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Figure another $200 -$300 I could manage.  The guy is in NH so the 
shipping isnot too terrible.  I might not win it of course...


The other one I saw was on Amazon - there were several , actually, but 
most from sellers with low ratings.


If cafepress had not stopped making 11x17 calendars I wouldn't even 
think of buying the large printer...


So, does this alter any of your thoughts about it?

tanks!

I'd pass on this one; it's a little too old, technology-wise. It uses
pigment inks, so print longevity shouldn't be an issue, but it's an
older ink set that doesn't use the multiple black inks for good B
printing that I think you need.

Thanks to all. I felt the mossy rock
