From what my understanding is it’s the UHH private message site that seems to be the issue, not their email. Idk I’m just relaying what folks have been saying. Thanks!

I’m selling items and keep getting messages that folks are not seeing any notifications and others have stated they sent messages but I didn’t get them and vice versa.
It’s been several different folks too.

Hey there, are you still wanting to purchase this 100mm macro lens? I sent you a message with the shipping and not sure if you are getting my messages but wanted to let you know that there may be some communication issues on here as some have suggested not being able to see certain messages or send.

Hi! Did you get my PM? I need your information so I can send it out. Thanks!
Teresa

The above email is wrong btw, I somehow typed in a wrong number so Pat, please refer to your messages. If your not able to get it please let me know and we can figure out another way.
Thanks.

[quote=Navywife66]Hey there are you not able to see my private messages? Shipping to you is as I calculated through the P.O. $30.00. I accept PayPal, if you pay as if I’m a business then there is a 15.00 fee (3% of sale) that get taken out of my side of the payment. Otherwise pay by family and friends option and there is no fee. I will be sending the lens using priority mail, insured. Total payment due will be: $545.00 if you use PayPal without the family and friend option, otherwise $530 using the friends and family option.
Please refer to the private message I sent for payment details. Thank you!

[quote=Architect1776]That happens a lot.
Fake skies added without saying that they are fake is very common.
Yes, there can be editing to preserve the photo like removing some pole or line but nothing was added that was never there.
But with editing so easy, I look at most: “Amazing" photos with skepticism now figuring the sky or other amazing element was most likely added to make a composition rather than a single shot.

I’m with you! I’ve seen some gorgeous photos but are they really what the photographer saw in the camera or in their own creative mind? Was that sky really “that sky?”… I know sometimes I look as scene and see it different to a on extent, of course. Then there are days I walk back out and wow there it is..or close! However one of my subjects that I enjoy shooting are skies. I’m intrigued with the sky. I have a whole file of just skies. A friend of mine told me to contact the major editing players as they could bring me $$$. I politely thanked him and said as tempting as it is, no, their mine, for me to use if I need a sky replacement or just to share as they are.
I’m thinking of now creating a post here with some of my sky photos and then seeing what you all have too! I’m seriously obsessed with the sky from sunsets to sunrises, normal day wispy clouds to dark unique storms clouds. I have some mammatus storm clouds from some weeks back too that I will share.
As far as AI, well I think as some have said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. With that said, taking a pic from the camera and not adding items but enhancing it to extract the beautiful details and or silence the noise is unique to each. There are so many pics that are beautiful and the cameras today are amazing at helping us capture what we see. The software companies it seems that they all have these AI features to enhance or change the photo in ways some of us are not use too. I recently bought a program that has the AI feature. However, I still try and play around with the sliders that I am use too. I also have a very artistic side to me that wishes she could paint. Having said that, I have used some products to help me create painting like photos too.
There are many of my own photos that I don’t need much other than a tweak and those are my favorites in my library because I was able to get the photo I wanted directly from composing the shot and being lucky!

I take so many and never really know what I get until I sit and go through all of them! This was defiantly a happy moment seeing this! Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! One of my favorite captures of birds are their movements!

I was able to sit out in my garden and play around with my new camera and lens. I am still not sure if I have everything set the way I should for BIF but I am playing with settings. I put this through some editing and added a little glow for a mystical look. I love to put my own spin on certain pics.

Thanks Pat, I sent you private message.

Lens has no scratches, fungus, mold or dust.

What is your zip code? I will send pics once I am at my main computer as that is where they are.
