Excellent portrait, only the color of the nail polish is very distracting.

From what I have understood the ND filters are used to attain a slower shutter speeds in bright conditions to blur movement. I've only seen them used in manual mode to set the apeture and shutter speed.

Great unit have been using it for the past 4 years, love it.

Wow, really looks like fun.
Thanks for the post, I enjoyed it.
I love snow when it just comes down.

Great flash the 60CT4. All manual settings no fancy controls. Used it for wedding and all sorts of studio work. I also have a Quantum and that is what I primarily use with the Metz as my back up and second flash.
Great products backed by great companies.

I have been using wacom tablet product since 2001 and about 3 years ago I moved up to the wacom cintiq screen. Last year I bought the largest cintiq that there is and I love it. Unlike a tablet you actually use the screen to retouch, like you are painting on it and I love both products. I do restorations and retouching and would be hard pressed if I had to use the mouse. Great workflow products and Lr4 works with the pen tool on the screen also. Go for it, you'll love using them.

Thanks, I did it for "Forgotten Soldiers" Veterans group in South Florida.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am definitely going to get one printed.
Thanks again,
Carl

Here is one I did Memorial Day 2005.

What software did you use to upload the pictures, Lightroom4 or their ROES software?
I would like to put a book together and that seems to be a great value for the price.
Thanks,
Carl

I remember my first Kodak Imperial it was turquoise and silver and had a little door you opened to pop in the flash bulb. Yes I remember squinting at the little red window to see how many pictures were still there to be taken. I loved that camera and took it everywhere. Had to run errands and do chores for the neighbors in order to buy and develope the film and buy the little flash bulbs. I was always amazed at how those bulbs would be blistered after they went off and you had to be careful or you'd burn your fingers removing them for the next shot.
Does anyone remember Spiratone on Northern Blvd in Queens, NY. That was the original gadget shop. They had all sorts of gizmos for taking pictures, naturally that was much later from my Kodak Imperial.

Great video of a wonderful performer who was loved by all.
Thanks

In the days of the film cameras there wasn't anything call IS or VC that came to birth with digital. We used that same rule of thumb concerning maximum focal length and shutter speed as stated. Worked well all the years I shot film.

I have taken some Equestrian events and I've found gloss really gave the photo a snap. I found absolutely no problem with glare, the photos are tact sharp and well saturated with color.

Displaying photos under plain glass tends to render the view as a glossy print. If you can use non-glare glass, then your matte photos will look more like the printed version.
