Re: Recovering damaged prints

[mike wilson]

If it was that important to me, I would be seeking assistance from a
professional print restorer.  While it is easy to obtain information from the
internet, it can't give you the experiential skills that are furnished by years
in a trade.

Subject: PESOs: The Miracle of Flight

I’m fascinated with moments in flight. They reveal much about something we 
can’t see very well without the aid of a camera, because it happens so fast.


In the first picture, a female sparrow pushes off from a perch. She seems to 
be launching with a huge effort and instant velocity, as she shows motion 
blur at 1/1000th second.


https://www.photo.net/photo/18409841/3394

In another pic, a male sparrow is captured in flight. His wings are probably 
moving at least as fast as the hummingbirds, although common belief would 
have it otherwise. Both this sparrow and the hummingbird were shot at 
1.1000th of a second, and here we see at least as much motion blur as in the 
hummingbird pic. Of course, this is a small sample, but I find it 
interesting.

Thanks Paul. Yes, optical, not inkjet. That is what I meant to imply by 
“commercial” but I wasn’t clear.

Re: Lightroom's handling of over/under exposed areas in images

[Paul Stenquist]

I'm speaking more to using the histogram post exposure in rendering. At that 
point reflected light is the only light that counts, so the histogram can 
indeed tell you a very co
Plate exposure story.

 Thanks, Ken. I confess I don’t understand the histogram very well and have 
 not tried to make use of it. In light of your suggestion I took at look at 
 Lightroom’s version of it and played around with it a little. Didn’t make 
 much progress sorting it out. At the moment it seems a more complicated, 
 perhaps more sophisticated, way of doing what I do by manipulating 
 Lightroom’s tone controls.

Re: Lightroom's handling of over/under exposed areas in images

[Bruce Walker]

Exactly, they don't lie, but they can't tell you the whole story
either. And they only show you reflected light, not incident. The more
tools you have to measure light the better informed you'll be with
more consistent results.

Still, not using histograms is to miss out on a lot of great exposure
info, and probably get poorer exposures.

Re: Lightroom's handling of over/under exposed areas in images

[Paul Stenquist]

Histograms don't lie, but you have to know their language. For example. A photo 
with no highlights will display a histogram with no right side. You can still 
use it to fine tune contrast and tonal range.

Re: PESO: Roof

[Bob W-PDML]

It's quite interesting, it looks like mossy stone tiles to me. Too messy to be 
the roof of the Van Gogh house. Travelling south through France it's very 
interesting to see how the styles of rooves and tiles changes with the climate.

I cycled through Auvers /Oise 3 or 4 years ago just after sitting outside the 
Jean Gabin museum in Meriel nearby, eating a baguette because the museum was 
closed, then following a very interesting Roman road (chaussee Jules Cesar) 
right into Paris. 

It is the anniversary of Van Gogh's death in a few days.

Recovering damaged prints

[Stanley Halpin]

The print in question is an 11x14 color commercially printed favorite of mine - 
taken with P645 one early foggy morning in 1999…

So we had a flood. The garage had water up to 26.5 inches. It would have taken 
27.5 inches for the water from the river to begin flowing on into the house, so 
that was the good news.
But among other items not removed from the garage before the water rose was a 
trunk containing many posters, photo prints, commercial prints (e.g. my 
collection of Byte Magazine cover artwork).
Now that I have cleaned, repaired, or discarded everything else from the 
garage, it is time to start salvaging the artwork.

Some of the prints have been easy. Soak, wash gently, rinse, squeegee, and 
place in a blotter book. Seems to be working. But THE print in question is 
about 80% stuck to the glass from the frame. Yes it was matted, but either the 
mat was too flimsy or it softened too much due to the soaking it received in 
the flood. So the print is stuck to the glass.

I have the glass + print soaking in a large trey. I think/hope eventually the 
print will float off. 

So here (at last) is the question: how long can I leave a photographic print to 
soak? Is there some point at which the emulsion will begin to decompose? I 
would rather let it be for a few hours rather than trying to peel it off the 
glass, but I don’t know how long I can wait before I cause more damage.

I may or may not be able to find the negative from which I printed, and I would 
kinda like to salvage and retain the original print…

Thanks for any suggestions!

Re: OT - Migrating Win10 to a new boot drive

[Mark C]

Thanks, Yolanda - I think you gave me the magic words to google. 
Googling "make a bootable image of Win10 hard drive" took me to a step 
by step article that seems to address what I need to do. I have a 
bootable rescue disk (thumbrdive actually) and a system image backup but 
the documentation for the system back says it will not work if the 
destination drive is smaller than then source. But I think the page I 
just found might do the trick...

Good luck with the install and migration!

I'm adding a 256 gb msata drive to my laptop and have been looking
into how to migrate my current Win10 installation to the new
drive. The goal is to move to OS and apps to the msata drive and
leave the 320 gb HDD for data.  The laptop is pretty bare bones -
just the OS, Photoshop, Office 2007 and a handful of other apps.
All told less than 40gb of drive space is used. Aside from the C
drive there are two recovery partitions, one at the start of the
drive and one at the end. Laptop is a Thinkpad x220 with legacy
bios, no UEFI partion...

So - what would be the best way to move the system? It seems that
many clone programs - e.g. Filezilla - say they cannot clone a
larger drive to a smaller one. Tools like EaseUS partition manager
sound good but reading the comments on their websites they also
have limits when it comes to shrinking partitions. And there also
seem to be problems with getting the newly cloned partition to be
bootable. In the past I've moved older versions of Windows to
larger drives and used my install media to make the cloned
partition bootable, but I have no installation media with this
laptop. I've used the bootfix and bcdboot command to troubleshoot
boot problems on Win10 in the past, so maybe the bootablity issue
can be overcome.

Any insights or experiences re what approach would work best? I
hope to receive the drive later this week.

fighting, trumpeting & rumbling all amongst the cars. They
then slowly moved off along the dry river bed to the W. Most of the cars
then moved to the E corner only to encounter a second herd arriving

Thanks Paul. I was sure I could count on you for info about the

I also had a hunch that Ken would like the motor.

Thanks also to Paul, Ken, Cotty and all for looking and commenting. 
Canepa would certainly be worth a visit sometime in the near future, 
they've got a lot of really pretty cars both in the museum and the 
showroom right now.  I rather like the shot of the dragster with the 6 
wheeled formula 1 car in the background for that.

Re: Lightroom's handling of over/under exposed areas in images

[Mark C]

I'm thinking of the color profile assigned to your monitor - but not 
using a Mac I don't know that I can help. On a Windows machine there is 
a color profile assigned to your monitor that is used by Lightroom and 
other apps to adjust the colors so that what you see is accurate. If 
there is a problem with that profile the machine adjusts the colors 
erroneously and can produce the kinds of color shifts you are seeing. I 
assume things work more or less the same on a Mac but don't know how you 
would check them out.


How do the images look on another screen -  phone or tablet or another 
computer?

Even towing and slowing a caravan through hilly Welsh countryside,

And that was done pretty much using mainly the brakes, ever since

It was a rental; in a mountain state. Lots of up & down on secondary

Re: OT - Migrating Win10 to a new boot drive

[Mark C]

I may wind up trying to shrink the partition but I think that the small 
recovery partition at the end of my drive will cause problem. From what 
I read it seems that some of the clone tools (and also Windows Backup) 
don't look at just the active partition space but rather the space from 
the start of the disk to the end of the last active partition. So 
unallocated space is counted unless it is at the end of the drive, and 
my drive has a small recovery partition there. At least that is in the 
documentation regarding restoring windows system images and I believe 
for Clonezilla as well - unallocated space has to be at the end of the 
drive to be ignored. The windows disk management tool can shrink 
partitions but (AFAIK)  cannot move them.  I think gparted might be able 
to move partitions but I'm  not familiar with it, only running it a few 
times to do Linux installs. It may be that some of the more 
sophisticated partition management / clone tools can handle resizing the 
partitions to fit a smaller drive.

Thanks, Ken. I confess I don’t understand the histogram very well and have not

Do you shoot raw and use the three color histogram to check your 
exposure?  When you blow out a channel on exposure, then it will screw 
up the color balance, because the other channels will still increase in 
value while the blown out channel will clip. Likewise, if you shoot in 
jpeg, the channels will clip a lot earlier, and arbitrarily based on how 
the camera processes, and that would really cause weird color balance 
artifacts.

I'm adding a 256 gb msata drive to my laptop and have been looking into how
to migrate my current Win10 installation to the new drive. The goal is to
move to OS and apps to the msata drive and leave the 320 gb HDD for data.
The laptop is pretty bare bones - just the OS, Photoshop, Office 2007 and a
handful of other apps. All told less than 40gb of drive space is used. Aside
from the C drive there are two recovery partitions, one at the start of the
drive and one at the end. Laptop is a Thinkpad x220 with legacy bios, no
UEFI partion...

So - what would be the best way to move the system? It seems that many clone
programs - e.g. Filezilla - say they cannot clone a larger drive to a
smaller one. Tools like EaseUS partition manager sound good but reading the
comments on their websites they also have limits when it comes to shrinking
partitions. And there also seem to be problems with getting the newly cloned
partition to be bootable. In the past I've moved older versions of Windows
to larger drives and used my install media to make the cloned partition
bootable, but I have no installation media with this laptop. I've used the
bootfix and bcdboot command to troubleshoot boot problems on Win10 in the
past, so maybe the bootablity issue can be overcome.

Any insights or experiences re what approach would work best? I hope to
receive the drive later this week.

PESOs: The Miracle of Flight

[Paul Stenquist]

I’m fascinated with moments in flight. They reveal much about something we 
can’t see very well without the aid of a camera, because it happens so fast.

In the first picture, a female sparrow pushes off from a perch. She seems to be 
launching with a huge effort and instant velocity, as she shows motion blur at 
1/1000th second.

https://www.photo.net/photo/18409841/3394

In another pic, a male sparrow is captured in flight. His wings are probably 
moving at least as fast as the hummingbirds, although common belief would have 
it otherwise. Both this sparrow and the hummingbird were shot at 1.1000th of a 
second, and here we see at least as much motion blur as in the hummingbird pic. 
Of course, this is a small sample, but I find it interesting.

Thanks, Mark. Do you mean color settings in the camera? I have been using the 
Fuji pretty exclusively for a while now—with just one lens, a 27 mm. I’ll take

Thanks for calling my attention to the way of turning off the indicators, Rick. 
Most what I see with them turned are minuscule blue dots in black areas and red 
on sources of bright light. I don’t think I would miss much important detail, 
if any, if the overexposure indicator were turned off.

Thanks, Ken. I confess I don’t understand the histogram very well and have not 
tried to make use of it. In light of your suggestion I took at look at 
Lightroom’s version of it and played around with it a little. Didn’t make much 
progress sorting it out. At the moment it seems a more complicated, perhaps 
more sophisticated, way of doing what I do by manipulating Lightroom’s tone 
controls.

Re: Elephant Spectacular

From: "Alan C" 

Subject: GESO: Elephant Spectacular



Sable Dam is the only permanent water in the local part of the Kruger Park
at this time of the year. Being only 12km from the Phalaborwa gate, it 
very

popular with day tripping locals. Late Sat. morning, there was a Leopard
sighting at the dam. Social media enticed hordes of visitors (including 
me -

returning, having seen the Leopard in the morning & hoping for another
sighting) but we got far more than we bargained for. Early arrivals who 
went

to the E corner of the dam where the Leopard had been spotted earlier were
cut off by a large herd of Elephants which approached behind them from the
N. Later arrivals, including me, were forced to stop at the NW corner of 
the

Dam. We were entertained by a relay of elephants having mud-baths, mock
fighting, trumpeting & rumbling all amongst the cars. They
then slowly moved off along the dry river bed to the W. Most of the cars
then moved to the E corner only to encounter a second herd arriving from 
the

NE. A third herd also arrived from the SW & entered the mud from the other
side. The cars were all trapped between the two herds. Fortunately the
Elephants weren't particularly aggressive & the drivers well behaved so we
were able to enjoy spectacular sightings of Elephant behaviour without
incident. However, I must say it was very scary to be trapped in the 
middle

of over 100 Elephants. This GESO cannot really reproduce the drama but it
does give some idea. There is also a shot of a Spoonbill calmly dabbling 
for
food, completely unfazed by the Elephants & one of the Leopard taken in 
the

morning.

There he unloaded his car and drove it to Galena.

A really nice restoration though there's hardly anything original on it.

A "build" might be a better term than a "restoration."

I don't normally do this Dan but that's such a 'nearly but not quite' shot.

YMMV but:

1. I'd put that dead centre of frame if it were me.
2. I'd reshoot it with maximum DoF - possibly shooting at different
focus settings and amalgamating the images to provide as much focus
across the subject. If not possible, I would concentrate focus on the
majority of the 'cone' part at the top.
3. The stem has a burnt out highlights - edit or reshoot.

The colour saturation and the contrast is lovely for me. I think it's
such a good shot that  it's worth re-doing :-)

Hope this is received in the spirit it was offered.

Re: PESO sweet 16

[Paul Stenquist]

The Mercedes is the W196R streamlined of 1954-55. It was built for Grand Prix 
competition. There was an open wheel version as well.
You had me going with "rail." A piece of railroad track? It's a top fuel 
dragster from the mid 1960s. Ford sponsored this car to showcase their new SOHC 
hemi engine. Lou Baney wrenched it and Don Prudhomme drove it. The Ford engines 
proved somewhat fragile with big loads of nitromethane, but were somewhat 
successful until Ford abandoned them, probably due to NASCAR not allowing them 
in stock car competition.

GESO: Elephant Spectacular

[Alan C]

Sable Dam is the only permanent water in the local part of the Kruger Park
at this time of the year. Being only 12km from the Phalaborwa gate, it very
popular with day tripping locals. Late Sat. morning, there was a Leopard
sighting at the dam. Social media enticed hordes of visitors (including me -
returning, having seen the Leopard in the morning & hoping for another
sighting) but we got far more than we bargained for. Early arrivals who went
to the E corner of the dam where the Leopard had been spotted earlier were
cut off by a large herd of Elephants which approached behind them from the
N. Later arrivals, including me, were forced to stop at the NW corner of the
Dam. We were entertained by a relay of elephants having mud-baths, mock
fighting, trumpeting & rumbling all amongst the cars. They
then slowly moved off along the dry river bed to the W. Most of the cars
then moved to the E corner only to encounter a second herd arriving from the
NE. A third herd also arrived from the SW & entered the mud from the other
side. The cars were all trapped between the two herds. Fortunately the
Elephants weren't particularly aggressive & the drivers well behaved so we
were able to enjoy spectacular sightings of Elephant behaviour without
incident. However, I must say it was very scary to be trapped in the middle
of over 100 Elephants. This GESO cannot really reproduce the drama but it
does give some idea. There is also a shot of a Spoonbill calmly dabbling for
food, completely unfazed by the Elephants & one of the Leopard taken in the
morning.

K7 with the HD 55-300. Leopard with the Sigma 170-500.

PESO sweet 16

[Larry Colen]

I don't remember if this is the Mercedes Godfrey posted a photo of a 
while back, but it is a rather pretty car:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/36085871596/in/album-72157684039433463/

Comments, as always, appreciated.

Canepa has several very pretty cars that I haven't seen there before. 
This set is just a rail and the Mercedes:

I suspect that there are people on the list that know far more than I 
about either of the cars.
