That is the thing about inspiration....
you have to look for it everywhere...
if you find yourself forgetting more good ideas than the other guy can even think of, then you're doing it right.
Ps. Gartmore... if Gerri gets mad at me for having a rotten pumpkin in the studio next month, I'm blaming you.
I'm not saying it's actually your fault, just that I'm blaming it on you.

I like the concept...
would work better fore me with more dof...
the one thing that popped in my little brain when I saw this...
wouldn't it be cool if you could lay the flowers out on that black reflective surface when they're fresh and pretty, then leave them there till they are dead and dried....
take the before shot and the after shot and composite them in photoshop to have the dead flowers with live flower reflections..
but that is my messed up head...
think I'm gonna try it next month if I get some time...
Forget flowers, I'll try it with our Jack-o-lantern

I made one of those once....
drew and "X" through a black body cap with a sharpie, drilled out a 1/4 inch hole dead center... taped a piece of tinfoil over the hole with electrical tape... using my "X" as a guide, I found the center, poked it with a needle.
worked ok.... I don't think I ever tried it with digital though....

It is supposed to hit the shelves the week after next. I know this is ridiculously optimistic of me but that is the story - and Pentax so far seem to be sticking to it.$1599 to 1699 in Canada but we'll see what happens when it hits the shelves, closer to Christmas..
that is so sad.....
last wedding of this season is this weekend.....
would have loved to try one out on the battlefield....

With the K10D I could control the settings off my camera from my PC, I don't think you can do that with an Eye-Fi card.
I've got a photo booth set up that uses the k10, Pentax remote software, and Apple's Automater and Applescript software....Algernon wrote:

Isn't the same.Just get an Eye-Fi card.

people pop in the little booth, push a big button, get a two second timer and it pops the photo and brings it into iPhoto and adds it to a slideshow..... and then plays the slide show... we then burn the slideshow to disc at the end of the event (printing is optional, but we charge more for that).
Goes over big at parties!
