    Wndows 7 (Beta) First impressions

    I installed it on my one and only computer a few weeks ago. It is pretty much the finished article as far as i can tell. I never had any driver problems and all software installed as if i was installing it on XP. Fair enough, it uses more resources than XP but then again, it uses no where...

    London sucks - post your moon shots please!

    Bare in mind these are from a super zoom compact. I still think they are decent. When i get a tcon-17 lens i will be up to 800mm. Then i will have some real fun :) Sorry for stretching the forum skin. It's all i have at the moment. Hand held while taking pics of the snow. The noise here is...

    I never bothered going to bed last night. Well... I went to bed but couldn't sleep so just got up again. I'll be suffering in a few hours no doubt :thinking:

    Does anyone know how to achieve this?

    That's standard exif data AndyB. Flickr saves all exif data and you choose whether to allow others to see it or not. I believe every digital photo ever taken has exif data.

    Looking at those camera settings it seems there is very little making the image any darker than a basic shot. -0.38 exp isn't going to make a massive amount of difference at all is it? So it is looking like it is all done in pp. We need a pp expert to chip in ;)

    Yeah they are fantastic shots. I don't suppose anyone would have an idea of what camera settings he is using? I would have thought the images would have to be naturally dark when being taken. If anyone knows what PP might have been used as well ;)

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/16536699@N07/3231634872/ That is just one of many portrait shots from LJ on Flickr. I mailed him a couple of weeks ago asking how he actually created images like that but never got a reply. I would like to know if it relies on filters and what post processing...

    what do you do when your uninspired to find something to photograph?

    That's what i would do. I can easily spend an hour a day looking through there.

    Right click on the downloaded patch (the one from Adobe), and select unzip. It will ask you where you want to unzip it to. For the minute select your desktop. Now the tricky part. Navigate to your Elements instillation. Right click on 'Start' and select 'explore'. It will be something like...

    I was told PSE7 would open the RW2 format by default but it doesn't. I have had to install a plugin for it from the Adobe site. No fee or anything just a pain trying to find it.

    Batten Down The Hatches (* * * Fresh Snow Warning Added * * *)

    Bring it on! The whole country will be on it's backside after a dusting. We all seem to have that so it may as well hammer it down and give us some decent picture opportunities :D
