Thanks Lance!

Thanks, I'm glad you like them. They're were amazingly adorable in person and I'm really happy that comes across in the photos.

Thanks, glad you like it :-)

In my experience, Nikon 70-300 VR isn't great on the D800. The D800 makes all of the lens' flaws more evident. At 300mm on the D800, when compared to my other lenses like my 70-200 f/4 and 24-70,...

How old was the book you were reading? When Apple updated Aperture to Aperture 3, Apple made a special effort to ensure that the meta data in Aperture was standards compliant. I would be surprised...

The absence of any mention of Apple Camera RAW in the article is quite striking. Apple Camera RAW is used by both Aperture and iPhoto. Despite the fact that Apple Camera RAW works on only one...

How so? Are you comparing the latest version of Lightroom with the old version of Aperture's highlight/shadow recovery brick or the new one? What makes you think it's better? In what way? In my...

Actually, that was the case with the old version of the highlight slider. The new highlight slider will take into account the data that was previously only available to the recovery slider....

Glad you like my photos. I frequently use ND filters with waterfalls, but int he case of these photos, I didn't need to do so because it was cloudy and rainy. However, I did use a circular...

My Seagate is very quiet. My G-Tech is very loud, despite being fanless. The G-Tech was actually a lot more expensive than the Seagate.

I'm getting improved results with my D800.

So I just downloaded Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4 and to my surprise, when I opened Aperture, it said that all my Nikon D800 files were processed in an earlier version of Apple's...

I'm not familiar with EFEX4, but what you're seeing strikes me as normal. JPEG is a lossy compressed format with 8-bit color. TIFF is a lossless compressed format (significantly larger files) that...

I think the lack of detail in the distant buildings comes from atmospheric haze rather than softness in the lens. Those buildings are really far away. I wouldn't expect any wide-angle lens to...
