    Critique Welcomed Surgery in progress — Do not enter

    BTW, how do you add the "critique welcomed" notation to your post title?

    Critique Welcomed Surgery in progress — Do not enter

    The title proposed a scenario that did not occur to me when I looked at the photo. Well seen! Regarding nind-denoise, which I have not tried yet, I'm not sure whether I prefer the photo with or without it. You were actually there on the scene...did the real paintings have the level of clarity...

    A visit to Haida Gwaii

    I hadn't heard of the Peter Iredale before. There's a little more of it left!

    A visit to Haida Gwaii

    In May, I went on a week-long photo workshop in Haida Gwaii, led by Viktoria Haack and Monika Deviat. I already had my eye on Haida Gwaii as a destination I would like to visit, and this made for a unique opportunity. It turned out to be much more than a beautiful location...it was a...

    Retired and enjoying it

    I'm about 80 when I wake up, but about 50 a couple of coffees later. My birth certificate has its own opinions.

    If You Dont Like Somebodies Uploaded Photo

    Well, I had a week up in Haida Gwaii (an archipelago off the west coast of British Columbia) on a photo workshop, which was beyond amazing. Truly life-altering. If you ever get an opportunity to go there, take it! Then I came back to work life reality, and I've had the camera in my hands for...

    If You Dont Like Somebodies Uploaded Photo

    On the original topic of the poll, I think everything depends on whether the OP requested constructive criticism. If they didn't, then the yap stays shut. Full stop. If they did, then the key word is "constructive". It's OK to say "if you cropped here, you could get rid of such-and-such...

    Thank goodness. I had thought his absence might have meant that he had passed away.

    On the contrary, they are quite insistent that an image posted for editing is posted with a license that allows editing, for example, CC-BY-SA-NC.

    New film simulation software

    Tony, that's a bunch of thoughts in only a few lines! My understanding of the project being discussed on pixls.us is that the project is attempting to model in detail what goes on with film, with the intent of bringing what people love about film to digital photos. I believe the project is free...

    New film simulation software

    I am not referring to the command dials, but rather the dedicated dials on the top of the body. For instance, on your X-T5, you have (from left to right) ISO, shutter speed and exposure compensation. On my X-T20, I have drive mode, shutter speed and exposure compensation. Some new models such...

    New film simulation software

    I believe that Fuji's film simulations are only used if you shoot JPEG. If you shoot raw, all you get is a bit of EXIF info saying what film sim was set in camera. It is possible for software to pick up that EXIF info and then "simulate the simulation". The software being discussed on pixls.us...

    The 50 Greatest Cameras of All Time

    Given that there was a period of time that it was de rigeur to put a disposable camera on every table at a wedding reception, there had to have been a lot of disposables sold. But it's not really fair to aggregate across brands...that's sort of like saying "where does the DSLR fit?"
