The Red Mill in Clinton NJ is one of my favorite places. Attached is an image taken while I was dialing in exposure and composition. I think it has "good bones", but really needs some expert help.

Feel free to download this image to your computer. Then edit the image any way that you think is an improvement. Black and White conversions, textures, composites, reverse images, solarization, crops, adjustments are all fine. When you have edited the image, post it in this thread.

I decided to jump in and give this a try as I have visited this site in the far distant past. After working the image and coming back this thread it sure appears that great minds think alike.

Will be taking a ride on that one next trip to Colorado. Will admit it's going to be tough to beat the Durango to Silverton. I have also ridden the White Pass & Yukon along with the Cass RR in W. Virginia. They were all a great experience.


I have ridden both the C&ts and the D&S more than just a few times and they are both great. With the C&TS having the edge in my opinion. I hope you get the chance to judge for yourself!!

If this post is true, Think of all the Professional Photographer who have and still do make their living with Nikon Cameras. Think of all the money they have spent over the years in buying the cameras and keeping them repaired. Think of all of the business that will be directly effected by this decision. This will also directly increase all of the business for the other camera manufacturer.
Don


please note: Nikon is NOT shutting down service. It is still available at the Nikon service centers.

This is not good. I have been a Nikon user since I got my first DSLR. Was in the market for a new camera and after seeing Nikon decision, I bought a Canon 80D. At least I can take it to an authorized service center if needed and not have to pack it up and ship it to Canon. I live within driving distance of Midwest Camera Repair in wyandotte, Michigan. I have heard the stories that Nikon has extended turn arounds now, so I can imagine what is coming with only Nikon California and Nikon New York available. So long Nikon, hello Canon.

The Nikon in house service centers are still operating. Your comments gives the very false impression that Nikon is shutting down all service and repair. That just isn't so. Nikon users can still have their equipment serviced. I have used the Melville NY facility since the beginning of forever. They are excellent.

You have ten friends in a room.
As the discussion goes, you want to make a comment to one of your friends.
Are you going to ask him to the kitchen so you can?
Will you wait until later to make the statement?
Or would you interject a statement into the conversation.
It happens.

We're all in this room together.
I'm rootin' for ya.


You attend a conference about ABC, where you are all strangers, another attendee starts talking about DEF.
I'm done, back to the subject please.

Conversation between friends?

Expression of camaraderie?

Bringing out the best in instigators?

Showing people with no friends what it's like to have them?


All of the above is what PM's are for.
In this case High Jacking applies equally as well

While I generally agree with vertical over horizontal framing for panoramas, a lot has to do with your subject. If you are only combining two shots (see Roundup photo) it really doesn't matter. Additionally, if your subject is the view from a mountain overlook (Fall Panorama) there is little need to capture all of the additional sky. I do a lot of panoramas that involve combining as many as 12 individual shots with each file exceeding 20 Mpx. Fortunately I have a graphics computer that can handle that kind of load. With 17 TB of memory and 2 TB of RAM the processing time is insignificant.

For those images where you don't want a lot of skt, I would agree with you. Go horizontal.
That first image, would that have been somewhere around Sonita ?

After taking the photo (half the fun) is the other half of fun by altering them in post production.
These all look best in download mode!


The 1st one and the bird put me off but the rest have a familiarity to them Leroy Neiman-ish. The half tone texture of no 7 doesn't work for me but that's just me.

It’s small, which will fit my hands better. It’s size will make it better for street photography, which I do a lot of. The camera itself has image stabilization, so I will have VR with the lenses that don’t have it, it shoots at 12fps and opposed to the 6.5 with the D750, shutter speed goes to 1/8000, not 1/4000, and many more focal points to name the main reasons.


Thank you. The IBIS would be important for me (I do 90% landscape) the others features not so much. But thank you for responding.
