A lot of buzz on this camera, so I want to say I love my RX-100 MIII. I just took a photo of Keegan my 1 year old Brittany. He isn't pleased with me as he was just 'neutralized' and has to wear his cone. I PP'd and smoothed out the cone so one would be drawn to his eyes. Tony Please use download

I saw an albino squirrel playing with a pure black squirrel. What are the odds for that? Tony

Printing on metal doesn't have to have a reflective finish. There are many choices for metal finishes. Tony

TONY EDLER PANORAMA PHOTO OF UPPER BIDWELL PARK, CHICO, CA


Black & White photograph, 2013
Satin finish on hard aluminum
8 feet long x 3.75 feet high
23 lbs. including 3” deep metal frame on the back to create shadows from sun.

The project started in November 2011 and took nearly 3 years to finish, most of that time waiting for April/May, the months when the air is clearest with the most pronounced cloud formations rushing northward along the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
6-sets of five photos (each 21.2 MB) were taken on March 27, 2013 at 2:30 PM in Raw format for a landscape photo then stitched together into high quality B&W 180-degree panorama Tiff photo using Photoshop CS5, Elements 9, Aperture, and Image Data Converter. This post-processing took over 150 hours. The final panorama covers 180 degrees and shows 10 miles of the Upper Park. The center of the panorama is facing NW. The right side (NE) shows the Big Chico Creek veering left out of sight and heading up and into the Sierra Nevada Mountains with 40 miles to reach its headwater. The left side (SW) shows the California central valley and some of Chico’s buildings, 4 miles from where the photos were taken.

They are the only place for 8 foot wide photos on metal in America that I could find. Smaller photos are also available. They are grand to work with. I have an 8 ft. photo on aluminum in my front room. It depicts about 10 miles of Big Chico Creek Canyon, in Chico, CA I had it done in black and white. Tony

My dog absolutely loves to be hugged! Now, my wife.......

I so thoroughly enjoyed your superb photos of the lovely photos of the damsels. I majored in biology and love nature. You, Sir, know how to photograph it. Great pictures. Tnx Tony

I was shocked at the motel prices in Jasper. We checked prices at 3 very modest hotels and the prices were ridiculous.... $200 plus. The natives said Jasper hotels/motels were the most expensive in Canada. Hmmm, maybe. We fired up our Harley and drove a hundred and fifty miles East and found a great motel for about $90. That was in 2004. While visiting Banff we found a great hotel in Canmore (13 miles to the East of Banff), which was much less than places in Banff.

This doesn't seem to belong here.

I was walking down a London street and saw Phylliss coming towards me. I stopped her and said what a coincidence to meet you today. I saw your show two days ago in Hollywood. She laughed and said after the show she jumped on a plane just like I did. She then invited me to lunch. She was so much fun. I just loved her. Tony

I just loved your photos. With only five photos, you have captured the beauty of Croatia, Bosnia, and Slovenia. Thanks a million. Tony

Jerry.... how did you download it? I prepaid, but cannot find the process for those of us who prepaid. Tony
