does it work with the 6D II?? I tried checking the ML site bout could not get the site to in-robot me.

If you view the image in the download mode and view the supporting towers at the right of the screen you will see that there is two separate towers, one for each bridge. There are two separate bridges, one for Eastbound and one for Westbound traffic. So now if you follow these to the left you will see that it is not a ghost image but one with a different exposure due to lighting condition most probably, and some perhaps to the 3D processing. Hope this helps.
The bridge on the far side was the replacement for Galloping Gertie. The other is newer.

Thanks, thought I needed to go to the eye doctor again...
1325 EDT Pitino is on unpaid administrative leave, Jurich (Athletic Director) on paid admin leave. But sure, both are toast...
I love the 3D photos and keep my 3D glasses close at hand. With this particular photo I am experiencing a strange effect. The foreground is clearly in focus and the 3D elements are bold. What is odd is that the uprights on the bridge exhibit a ghost image shifted to the right. I would be interested in hearing if other viewers experience the same. I should admit that my vision is impacted by strabismus (corrected with eyeglasses) but I viewed the image with both ordinary readers and with my corrective lenses and the ghost image continued. Now, if others see it as well is this a result of the focal point of the photos? If so can it be corrected by having a focal point at a greater distance from the lens? Understand I am not criticizing the photographer but just trying to understand technique so I can at some time produce images of my own. With that in mind what would IR 3D photos look like -- if they could be produced at all??? Last item, is that the replacement bridge for Galloping Gertie?
At auction good enlarger, multiple lenses, timer, film holders, slates and a ton of goodies went for less than $50. Our experience is that anything film related draws a very small crowd and winning bid prices are miserably low for what was once state of art equipment. It will be difficult but you may need to manage your expectations.
Was there in bright sunlight and your colors are better by far. The rain did you a favor
I think I was the first Hog to purchase a 6D II. I like it. Yes, bigger, a bit heavier but that full frame is just wonderful. I was stepping up from a 10D. I like the flip out LCD screen and the touch sensitive surface is a nice addition. Sure the techno-geeks will tell you how it is a terrible disappointment in terms of noise and dynamic range but I find those complaints largely irrelevant in my work. If I was operating at the extremes they may be important but for me, with what I do they are complaining of "deficiencies" that are of little practical significance. One mentor used the term "inconsequential increments" to note such technical differences. I know it will take me quite a while before my skill set surpasses the limitations of this camera. When they do I will happily trade up to the current full frame state of the art camera. For now I am enjoying the great photos I am getting using the 24-105L II lens.
photo contest entry material. Exceptional!
Super job. The terminology is important for us techno-geeks and is otherwise lost on your general public. You can learn the jargon in many internet tutorials and many books. But the simple way is just to pay attention to the technical specs that accompany photos here and in any of the consumer photo magazines. Knowing the technical stuff may make you a technically better photographer and allow you to really control how your images are captured. But you already have the more important part down pat -- creativity and the simple joy in doing. Well done and post those images here as well.
Well done. I initially thought you were using a Hydrogen Alpha filter but I think it was just an orange tinted one. I like that you caught a prominence during totality. I passed on my telescope for this one but am seriously considering it for 2024.
Okay Hogs. I went to Eddyville, KY to view totality. It was the right idea as Mineral Mounds state park had clear skies and only had about 150 people viewing. A nice manageable ad hoc community. You bet I took photos, 650 of them. I put the lens on manual and pulled focus for four separate shots for each keeper I wanted at that specific time interval. I tried autofocus but it kept seeking. So what will I do with them? Well I suspect about 75 percent of them will be trashed as out of focus. The keepers will remain on my computer until I get the gumption to make a mosaic or print out a particularly good one. The drive back was the nightmare traffic jam. Getting there took 2.75 hours, coming back 8.5 hours... But here let me coin a phrase, "Totality worth it."
Boy oh boy some hogs can be really unhelpful. The OP asked for some pricing advice and many of the responses tell him what an ill-equipped and untalented amateur he is. I don't know this as I didn't check his original work or his equipment list as it is not relevant to the OP question. The guy has an opportunity and good for him. When he posts pix on UHH let us then offer critique IF it is requested. Go for the job and charge what you feel is right. Good luck!
Would a monopod be allowed? If so, use one. Put a head on it that makes it look like a cane on your way in...
