What does your response have to do with the subject?


It’s just there to stir the pot.

Do we really have to told that a download does not cost money? "Free Download" is all over the Internet, but it's meaningless. It's often difficult to see what the actual price is - until you download it.


It’s not meaningless. The meaning is fairly clear. What it is is misleading. Typical marketspeak. It makes you THINK the product is free. It’s probably not.

… If I could edit the post I would title it "cartoon - just laugh" and have no text in the body of the message.


In my experience you can’t have no text in the body of the message. UHH complains “no text”. If I have no appropriate words I just stick in a period. It’s fairly unobtrusive.

The original dates from around 850AD so I think the copyright has expired. Roughly translated: “that passed, may this also”.

I collect cartoons from the internet. I send them to a zoom lunch group that I am a member of. I see this as being within the fair use provision of the copyright. I don’t profit from the use.

So is there a significant difference between a zoom lunch group and a forum? No monetary gain in either case.

The title appears to support the SOOC view of photographic philosophy. Ignoring the completely irrelevant subthread I view this as a normal UHH occurrence.

I view SOOC as a personal choice and as such is neither right nor wrong on the whole. For me, it is wrong, but I am not in charge.

How about publishing a link (URL) to the cartoon? That provides attribution to the source.

I gave away the D200 and the lens to a kid who was interested in photography about 10 years ago.

I got that lens for my first DSLR, a D200. I used it for a few years until I got a D3. I had to get FX glass then so I sprung for a 70-200.

I found then that the 70-200 was noticeably sharper than the 18-200. But the 18-200 was a nice lens for flexibility and range. I got a 28-300, which the equivalent for FX. It’s great for casual work but for important shots I use the 24-70 or 70-200.

The biggest problem with the 18-200 was creep. I got a rubber band and put it around the lens barrel to minimize the creep.

Depends on what I'm matching. I'm not always trying to match the same thing, and the matching attempts are rare. (and I'm really bad at keeping records).

My post was really directed at NJFrank, who said that work flow steps are a personal choice. I was agreeing with him. I generally approach every image de novo when it comes to processing. I don't try A first, then B.....

Take each photo and each circumstance as unique? So, if I try to match up three news photos into a similar "look," I can just forget what worked (or didn't) with these?


My workflow is mine. Your workflow may well differ. No problem.
I will admit that occasionally I will try to match images in some way.

I think work flow steps are a personal choice. If you watch enough YouTube videos on the subject, all the presenters have their own steps. Seem some say to Denise first. Others do it last. As one example.
As for your three images I think you succeeded.


I have a set work flow from shutter click to LR import. It places meaningful file names on the files and loads them into a well defined folder structure, loads them into LR and backs everything up.

Once it's in LR, it's free form from there. No fixed workflow. Stochastic.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

I posted a comment just above yours on the top of page 4 on how to get GPS coordinates from your cellphone and use them to bring people to you like a tow truck, 911, any other type of emergency. You can use it to find your car in a big parking lot or whatever. I also included some comments an putting GPS coordinates into your cellphone. Check it out.

There are so many programs out there that you can LEARN to use and make your RAW photos great. However, if you like your JPEG photos, by all means shoot in JPEG.

Most of us shoot in RAW because we learned how to use PhotoShop, Lightroom, ON1, Luminar NEO and many others.
If you are not creative, or have not learned how to use some, or any, of the above mentioned programs. Take the classes offered on YouTube or offered by various groups. It's a constant learning process, and fun, too. My philosophy has changed over the years: Just grab your camera and have fun.

It is always good to be in danger of learning something new.

Raw is a religion and NOT for beginners IMO.


If everyone thought that way, nobody would ever learn to use raw.

One has to risk failure to learn anything. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
