Yes, it was a nice companion to "Daily Worker", Angela Davis and Paul Robeson...:) - you just triggered too many memories:) jacob

Great color Greg. Thanks for sharing. Where I live everything looks like the foreground in #1:) jacob

Thanks aspalmat! Yes, it was my first visit to Alaska...

Thanks John! I took a bus tour instead of the train - It had about a dozen stops in "strategic" places:)

Continuing with the recent cruise pictures - these are from Skagway. Your C&C is welcome. Thanks! Jacob The Fireweed. It blooms from the bottom up. When it blooms at the top, Alaska Native legend ...

Very nice Trevor! I have not used MFT cameras (yet) - seems to work out quite well for you. I like the one before the last one best - great scenery! jacob

Thanks for your kind comments ant the tweaks. I like all of them: the stretch and foreground brightening in the first one; the breaching whale adjustments (you don't know how much I missed - ...

Thanks for the detailed explanation Sabrina!

Yes, scattering it is, and I almost expected you to comment on this - we had this discussion before:) I am more fascinated by the technical aspect of this since my LR are efforts are always pretty ...

Thanks Kelly! I stared at the pictures too much today...perhaps I should have a fresh look tomorrow morning to regain my mental reference. Thanks for the comment - it helps! jacob
