in CS3, open adobe bridge (located in the upper right hand corner) and then you can locate your card and open the files. They'll open in a raw setting first where you can make some adjustments, and then open into Photoshop.
nice shots, nice composition!
I've seen several people interested in taking wedding photographs for a friend or relative. And since they are not 'real' wedding photographers, they've been advised NOT to take them. There have been alot of good arguments for this view. However, lets look on the positive side. Since you've been selected because you have a 'real nice camera', once you screw up the photos, you'll have more time for your landscape or nature photography...(things you're really good at)...because no one will ask you to do this again! And, when they only have six photos to select from, you can explain that six photos from a pro would cost them an arm and a leg. So, you are saving them lots of money! When you update your website you can now say you are a nature photographer and you can inlcude the title 'wedding photographer' too. So, let's lighten up and let Uncle Ned take the wedding photos! With all these pluses, why not? I'm sure there are lots of other positives that I haven't even touched on! Have a GREAT day!
nicely done! and your pp work really adds to the final product. creative!
Enjoy the new toy...and pack some depends for the trip to pick it up!!
nice abstracts! the colors and layouts of the shots look great, even though they are compilations of several slides!
i lost negatives (mostly black and white shots) in hurricane andrew and was just not as stubborn as your dad. plus, we lost our house so i had other concerns also.
again, a great memory of your dad and his resourcefulness.
if you're starting in Seattle and heading to Sacramento, think about Mt. Rainier, Mt. Hood, Crater Lake on the way down. We're going on that trip this summer, except we're going to SF and then the PCH to LA.
i like the lighter one as it brings out more clouds and more of the bush. great job on the shot.
i think to start with, use your shutter priority setting until you get the feel for the use of the manual settings. i also agree with bracketing of your shots. some very good information from some smart people.
nice shots. he seems to be quite the camera ham!
Good point. Keeping the original is always a smart thing to do whenever you plan to make ANY changes to a photo. Whether cropping, saturating or toning down a background, having the original is always a plus.
