Agree, and it's an interesting topic to explore further. I know there are certain images I flip experimentally to see if I like them better, and others where even if a flip seems to make better sense compositionally, I cannot get comfortable with it because every time I look at it I feel discombobulated; it's like flipping an image of your house, it just won't look right even if it's prettier the other way. But your car, you can flip it every which way and it doesn't matter.

That's why I can flip an alligator, but have trouble flipping a lake. Perception is such an interesting thing!

The AV mode on my 7d appears to be gone. Shows up as 00 no matter what. Canon help is closed for the weekend, of course. I'm wondering if it is the camera or if maybe I hit a wrong setting. Have been shooting for an hour or so, and it suddently disappeared. Thanks in advance.


I don't see 00 in the list http://www.learn.usa.canon.com/resources/articles/2012/eos_error_msgs.shtml
And assume all the other modes work...

Have you tried removing the lens and replacing it?Have you tried removing the battery and replacing it? Have you tried a factory reset?

Keep us informed. S-

Indeed it is! Thanks for this. Making comparisons is easier side by side.

My own preference remains with the orientation of the original, not because it's better (it may not be) but only because I feel unsettled looking at the flipped version. I think it's a perception thing.

I understand, but it's interesting to think about how we see things when we're not invested in them. Seems to work either way for me, but I wasn't there. S-

I put one of mine through it and it said: chance that this image is awesome 0.0%

Uuglypher made eloquent points, but I still like a flip on this one

This is R.G.'s edit, which I found to be quite beautiful. Very lovely scene, Minnie. Like it a lot!

I thought it would be interesting to see them together. S-

I will be spending a few days at Yosemite in early June... first visit since my last trip there almost 45 years ago. I know it's going to be crowded, but was wondering what are the best times for arrival in the park, and what are some of the key locations for photography, in order to avoid the large crowds. I'll also be visiting Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks. Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks!


The National Park Service may be a good resource for your questions. https://www.nps.gov/yose/index.htm
CONTACT THE PARK
(209) 372-0200
The public information office is open from 9 am to 5 pm Pacific time (closed for lunch). Once connected, dial 3 then 5. If the ranger is already on the line, you'll be returned to the main menu. If the ranger is not there, you can leave a message and we will return your call.

And to help I've added these https://www.nps.gov/yose/learn/photosmultimedia/index.htm and https://www.colbybrownphotography.com/a-photographers-guide-to-visiting-yosemite

Steve -- there was a subtle item in the original crop that got halfway eliminated in yours. Just right of center, below the log, there is a ground squirrel. Well, wildlife is my first love.

Good catch and agree! Thank you again! S-

I have not been participating here recently because of vision problems but this image of the type of terrain that is near and dear to my psyche is a reason to 'wake up'. My final version has been down sized and converted to jpg for this web site


I really like the panoramic look to this! Thank you! S-

Well Stevie when you give me an image of what looks like a landfill site to start with it sure does not make life easy! So I transferred it to the easel and reached out for the oils. Produced using only my digits in the style of the immortal winterrose who we all remember I'm sure as a big fan of finger painting whose wise words enabled others to take the technique to a whole new level.
Edits are welcomed by the way but suggest you only do that when smiling, very drunk, or both to keep this work of art in its original mood zone.
