--What a pure-stylished picture...as you know how to do!
Thank you very much, dear Seng ! O:)))

Kind regards,

Pour moi, photographier c'est aimer...et se laisser aimer
 
Love that Colorado skyline...so nice to see some enjoying to be out taking photos...keep them coming...:)

thanks spm, I just need more... time... I like to look at them on flickr, since it's one price with unlimited upload MBs. I then intend to move some of the better to pbase, to my galleries and a few best of the best to the group gallery...but I just haven't had time...

I still tend to keep the SDx in P mode, especially when I'm with my husband who is waiting patiently for me to finish. Usually he doesn't take photos, though he did on the Stovepipe Wells dunes and Valley of Fire with the x530. So I always feel pressed for time with him. (Hillwood was fun, Nick's reaction was, "Welcome to Fantasy Island" ie viewing the French garden, the Japanese Garden, the lawns, arbors, walks and parterres. Lots of chairs everywhere, so visitors can feel like Lord/Lady of the Estate.)

I often will change the aperture, not by setting on A, but (while in P mode) twisting the dial for an aperture I prefer. I notice that the SD14 records this in EXIF as a P mode shot, though there IS some selection of F/ stop by photographer involved.

I want to ask too about your workflow and how you backup/store. I'm at a crisis with my Sony laptop, it is groaning at the seams. Saturday's photos took the hard drive under 1GB free! I have one 250GB external drive. I'm thinking about getting a second and double recording all, keeping the SDx files for the most part off the laptop.

So I've spent much time recently messing around with drives and Photoshop Elements v5, which changes my workflow if I don't process in SPP3! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as to how you handle your undoubtedly copious photo collections --

Loved your Anteloupe Canyon shots and all your other recent travels online.
Best regards, Sandy

We've had 3 consecutive days of solid dawn till dusk rain. Global
warming isn't as good as they claim...
Funny...I had prayed for rain as I had been wanting to do the rain shot for the last month but now have to wait until october...life is funny...one seems to want what one does not possesses...ironic!
:-(
I got several this week end but will start with this infrared
handheld shot of the Church of Saint Teresa of Avila in Bodega Bay
with sd14 + 20mm EX + b+w093 (RG830) + voightlander view finder for
composing...using only red channel iso100 f5.6 1/160s.

BTW. I did this similar shot back in 2005 with the sd10 and B+W 091

I'm super busy with work this week too (another point I didn't mention...) We need to start a separate discussion thread later I think with how-to ideas on workflows, storage and backup. I'll try to find the article too, was in one of the magazines...
Best regards, Sandy
 
Indeed.

Excellent shot by the way.

Marsh frog (D100 + 100-300mm F4)

Bird walking on water. Made another trip to photograph puffins and other seabirds, afterwards while on the way home we stopped at my cousin's place in Boothbay, ME and he and his wife took us on a boat tour of the islands and harbor area. While on the way back I was able to snap this fast moving eider duck as he skimmed across the water before diving under. Unfortunately it is a little too soft for my liking, my fault for not using a much faster shutter speed.

And here is one of the puffin pics. This is one of only two pics I was able to make with fish in their mouths.

And no this is not Port Royal, this where the Bounty is making preparations to sail from Boothbay Harbor on 7/2/07. The tentative final destination is Pitcairn Island.

Hope you enjoy.
