Thanx all for the replies. There has been some constructive feedback.

 

Pico,

I noticed you commented both on my photo and on this forum. I am glad my picture was worth for you to add two special comments. I looked at your personal portfolio and it was quite interesting, in fact very good.

 

Your words came with a different flavor in your comments you left on these forums. Since I am looking for constructive feedback I don't mind it. I highly doubt that others may not appreciate that much.

 

Well, you did not request any constructive feedback on your words ..so I will shut up.

 

Thank you and all.

 

Regards

The critique only system makes the image/request available for critique fora short span, especially in the Landscape category where it lasts for not more than few hours.

 

Many members lose opportunity to critique a photo also requesting members can not have critique from more members as the critique request is displayed for a very short time.

 

Rather if the image is good enough to land in the Top Photos, it is available for longer time to critique.

 

Having this on forum that is continuously active at least can avoid the flaw in the system.

Constructive Critiquing than hopeless rating system.

Wuth CS2 I use the "save for web" method. Not sure if that's the best.

If you take morning 5:15 trip to Wonder lake in Denali NP, it can bring a very good chance to see wildlife. You may have to book shuttle in advance by calling NP visitor center. We went in August first week. We saw grizzlies 15 ft from our shuttle bus and 2 more on the hills., caribous, moose. Early morning is the best time to see that wildlife in Denali.

 

In south, Portege glacier will be worth and easy to shoot. Drive to Seward from Alaska is one of my favorite. Seward's Exit glacier is great to hike to.

Thank you all for your help.

<br><br>

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

<br><br>

Does anyone have a report on the status or predictions of the

rhododendron bloom this year in Redwood National Park? What are other

nearby places to visit for nature photography?

 

Thanx.

IF you are at page..don't miss Horseshoe bend and if possible Valeey of the gods state park, gooseneck state park. You can do these by driving from page-monument valley-moab. All lie on the way.

Does anyone know the status for 2006?

For Columbia River Gorge? I would say one of my favorite time of the year. Look for overcast days and it will be worth dozens of your favorite photographs. Don't forget to go to Eagle Creek trail, Wahchella falls and horsetail falls.

 

I would just camp at the Eagle Creek or stay in Cascade locks.

There is 250000$ fine and few years of prison probably if they consider this as crime.

Very interesting photos. Enjoyed seeing the variety of photos in one day's hike! How long and how high the hike is? Could you pass osme details?

 

Thanx.

For 3.3 camera Raw update Adobe lists all the camera RAW additions specific to the cameras. Bruce Fraser's "Camera RAW" is a good resource.

Hi,

 

I have been reading many LCD screen posts and helped me understand

what I need...basically I need 500$+.

 

This is what is the checklist I have for the LCD: 16.7 million colors

(24 bit), DVI port, 19 inches (if I can afford)

 

Can I avoid with any CRT monitor? How do I guage it? What are the

characteristics I should look for for the CRT monitor that is capable

for photo editing?

 

I have one old (but not flat screen) 17 inch monitor.

What is the checklist to confirm that I can use a CRT monitor?

 

Thanks in advance.

I was curious what is the best (and efficient) way to create a border

around your pictures that could also write the name of the

photographer / website?

 

Using photoshop or any other expensive software?

I also like the black border. Ithink it depends on the contrast of colors in the pictures.

Thanx.

If you use DSLR and can show histogram, you can also use this feature to be able to make decision and take another shot with adjusted values based on histograms.

One idea I have been suggested is that, remove lens and do a 30 seconds exposure and clean the sensor during the shutter open period. You have to be quick enough to remove your Lens Pen or anything that you are using withing 30 seconds.

Thanx.

Yes, Manual focusing is an option, but I will try the AF point at the boundary suggestion, that sounds interesting.

 

Thank you all, regards!

Thank you for all responses.

I take the recommendation to get a card reader, as I transition toward the Digital.

<p>

Yes, as someone mentioned in the folder, I could see only JPEG files and no RAW files, but can be viewed on the Camera. When I deleted all the jpeg files on card, I could only see an empty folder.

<p>

I have the EOSViewer utility, however somehow when I was using it, I did not se any method to import RAW Files in it and thought it did not support it. and then decided to look into PS elements.

<br>

When I clicked on RAW, it kind of brought up a window called "RAW" and showed differrent related screens like Viewfinder etc, but nothing was obvious how to download the RAW file.

<p>

If someone experienced this before and knows how to fix it, great, otherwise I will anyway be meddling with it more soon.

Thank you and regards,
