Thanks, Paul, Alan and Rick. It as raining in the general direction of the rainbow, but not on the beach where we were. The "storm" clouds came and left rather quickly. Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Wed, Jan 30, 2019 at 3:31 PM Paul Stenquist wrote: > Very n

I hadn't heard of HoudahGeo before, so I looked it up. I think a trial will explain how it works pretty clearly. Now, personally: I don't really care about geotagging my photos very often. When I want to be able to figure out where something was taken, I make a snap shot with my iPhone which a

An idyllic sort of composition, Dan. Given the time of day & no obvious storm, I am surprised there was a rainbow at all. Alan C On 31-Jan-19 01:37 AM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: >From this morning's beach walk. http://dan-matyola.squarespace.com/danmatyolas-pesos/2019/1/30/rainbow WG-3 GPS Comm

I know I’m ignorant, Ralf… but how does the information from the Garmin get associated with the photos? Is it linked to the camera somehow? Rick > On Jan 29, 2019, at 3:00 PM, Ralf R Radermacher wrote: > > Am 29.01.19 um 20:26 schrieb John: >> When you get to some exotic location, take a photo

Nice, Dan! The colors are remarkable. I’m surprised not to see storm clouds behind the left side of the rainbow, though. Rick > On Jan 30, 2019, at 6:37 PM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: > > From this morning's beach walk. > http://dan-matyola.squarespace.com/danmatyolas-pesos/2019/1/30/rainbow >

I'm getting there slowly. I understand exposure better than I did with film, and I I try to bracket the hell out of anything I'm not sure about, but there's still some frugal unconscious part of me that was trained years ago not to waste film. I understand that's not a problem any longer, but

Totally agree, Ken. Still I usually come home thinking that I should have spread the available time and effort on more motifs rather than many alternatives of a few. It's so frustrating to see how few exposures are left after the culling of experiments that didn't work. Especially when it is t

Good point. For the most exotic *landscape* locations, I'd argue that hotels and street addresses are hard to come by. But redundancy in ways to reconstruct itineraries is a must. GPS helps, and so does a diary or travel log. Even receipts from stores or highway toll stations can be valuable
