nice you're concerned...on the rare ocassion I've done that I only leave the image up for a week or two and take it back down......
usually find somethin in my files that I use for examples, though...
it wouldn't bother me if somebody did that to one of my images, here in the forum, to offer help to me, as long as they didn't use it for any other purpose, esp outside this forum.
falls under "Fair use" if you ask me.
best advice is to not post anything on the web that you don't ever want to see copied.

you running a mac?
I saw a proofing thing for aperture that allowed for online proofing....
then there's photoreflect
I just don't do those highvolume jobs so I'm not sure if my ideas will help...
I can't tell you how many times I turn parents away that ask me how much to copy the proofs though...
I tell them I'll call the other guy for permission, price match the other photographer for prints, plus the cost of scanning, and can't gaurentee the scanned results will look as good blown up as an original file.
That usually makes em go away.

Speaking of video....
I'm almost done a time lapse clip of a lilly opening. Maybe 2 days of one shot every 3 mins 45 secs to go...
It's going to have some titles and a border overlayed, but here's a still:

I'm wondering what side of your brain most photographers use and if that influence there photos in what type and how/what you think while composing the shot. The later would be hard to write down for everyone and take to much time to do so just do the tests and let me know what comes out.
These are the tests
quiz my score; 15% left, 85% right
the lady clockwise so right brained
The scoring goes as followed:
- each test is 50% of the score.
- you grade yourself with the lady test.
my would be 85% right for the quiz + 100% right with the lady because I could only let her turn clockwise = 92,5% right brained
Good luck
I try not to use either, unless I really have to.I'm wondering what side of your brain most photographers use and if that influence there photos in what type and how/what you think while composing the shot.

I have managed to trick her about the two lenses, when she asked me if I bought another toy (as she calls any gadgetery I buy) I told her "nope, that was bought together with the camera, you just didn't notice it" ha, but now with the third lens which I am about to leave home to go and pick it up I better come with a good excuse LOL.re from the shop but its been so frequently that she has started suspecting something odd going on here LOL.
Any suggestions please?

Don't take any photos of her, unless it's a glam portrait....
Take your time, set up something properly, make her look her best.
When she says she loves it, then blame it on the new lens.
you walk around popping candid photos of her crawling outa bed first thing in the morning, she'll make your toys vanish.....

I got the 1520 for my motorcycle rack... you may want to find out what the airlines carry on limits are, and choose a model that fits. I prefer to avoid the "Pick apart" foam packing, and go with the models that have the inserts you can re-arrange like a camera bag... one or two models even have a lowepro camera bag made to fit inside...Don wrote:
