Today was yet another learning experience. I went to St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption in Covington, Kentucky and shot some pictures. I used my new Canon D60 with the Canon 16-35mmL lens and a tripod. This was only my second attempt at using a wide angle. I am more of a "telephoto" person and I am only beginning to learn how to use the lens and in what situations. It seems that what I think might be a good use for the lens isn't and what I don't think about probably is. Nevertheless I was pleased with my results. The pictures were saved in a small jpg and I'm afraid that they may not do them justice. However, I printed several out as 8X10's and they were incredibly sharp.
Let me know what you think.

I don't know if its only me -- the photos are not coming up in pbase. If it is just me, please let me know.

I've been able to see my pictures but I have heard from others that they can't. I wonder if there is a pbase problem. You might try again.
 
Photos look good on my just (an hour ago) calibrated screen.

IMO “Back” and “Lside3” are the only two that are dead-on exposed they way I'd do them. Nice and moody. I like. (But all are within acceptable standards, IMO.)

One small thing, I think you got the math wrong on the D60's FOV crop.

The 16mm end of the 16-35 is 25.6mm, not 39mm.

I noticed it on one of the photos.

Good job on the photos!!

Peace,
Jim
 
I like Lside and Back , as well...

I would've liked to experiment with 2 exposures and compositing them in PS. This way you get the nice, warm and rich interiors w/o blowing out highlights in the windows.

Really nice effort..thanks for sharing...

Jim -

I didn't do the calculation.....that's just what appeared. I have no idea how or why it's calculated like that.

if I got to another web page (in the same browser window), I am unable to see any pix on that new web page either. Kinda weird!!

When I go to view those cathedral pictures on Pbase, they do not show, and I see others who have posted also having this problem. But here is the kicker... if I go to view other non-Pbase pages with pictures, they won't show either, regardless of the originating website. To double check, I rebooted, and went back to those other non-Pbase websites that had pictures and now they viewed fine. Then I came to this thread, tried looking at those cathedral pics which still would not show, then went right back to those other sites that were just working fine, and again they stopped showing their pics. I have to assume something about the Pbase website is causing Internet Explorer 6 to go screwy.
 
Something is screwy about pBase, especially Lisa's gallery.

My pBase account is working fine. When I try to look at Lisa's Gallery, I see no images...and when I go somewhere else afterward, I get no images either. I wonder if it's pBase or some embedded CCS template is messing things up.

If you right click on the missing image in Lana's root gallery and select Properties you'll see that the image file size is -1! I'm using IE6 and this appears to cause some kind of buffer overrun which IE6 can't recover from. If you re-start IE6 you will be able to view images again, just not Lana's cathedral shots. I'm guessing Pbase choked on this image somehow - I'd try deleting and re-uploading the image.
 
Of all my browsers, only IE6 gives that.

Try a less idiosyncratic broswer (almost any would be, but
Netscape, Mozilla, Opera ...).

Oh, and too bad--my gallery is on the front page today LOL. I checked mine--site must be down today or Slug is doing something to it.

Jim, unless you change the FOV, pbase inserts this automatically from the EXIF. I'm sure some of mine are wrong too. I've corrected a lot, but some I just plain forgot. Probably Lana didn't notice it either. Pbase is having some problems, so I haven't seen the pics yet.

WEll, you're exactly right. I don't know about the why, but I closed IE and reopened and I can see my gallery just fine now.
