I'm a big lastpass fan. But I haven't purchased the mobile app. I wonder how that compares.

three stars scare me, on Amazon . . .
People are more incline to low score and complain on the internets. Generally someone who is content does have the urge. I learned that a long time ago.burnzz wrote:

http://500px.com/
Trey and Leo were talking about it in the last Mostlyphoto podcast. I'm setting up an account now.

i will now, thanks. registering.
i still have 36 tiff's from last week's trip. i load one up in PS and crop, edit, and save as jpg while i'm browsing this or other forums.
i just realized 'why' i enjoy post processing as much as taking pictures - i'm standing (or kneeling, or setting up a tripod) all over again, and even though i'm four hours away from where the actual picture was taken, i swear i feel the wind on my face, i can see the histogram on my camera back as plain as the one in PS
and for a brief moment i recapture what it was i was looking at when i put the camera up to my eye . . .

I know what you mean. I actually enjoy post more than shooting. Well, sometimes

here's a tonemapped tiff (that i saved as jpg, because 'file type not allowed)
i'll usually put a little tone curve (HDR is linear) tweak the exposure, and if i think it's going to flickr save a 1920x1200 version out.
it was a windy day, and i remember cranking the ISO for this shot because the trees in the mid distance were moving.
i also remember how quiet it was, and sometimes it's not a bad thing. brb, looking at 500px . . .

jeez, the site is pro. the first page is littered with once in a lifetime shots . . .

The idea is to limit your account to "500" photos. By doing that you're encouraging photogs to only put their best stuff up.burnzz wrote:

How it all began
The first version of 500px.com came to light in early 2003. In those days everything was slightly different. The internet was slower, 3.2mpx cameras were the latest buzz, digital photographers were just getting acquainted with their tools, and 500 pixels was a good size for photos displayed on CRT monitors. Our website went through a number of revisions. We grew together with technology and photographers bringing us most recently to Version 2.0 in 2009.

i may upgrade. seriously, everything you'd need . . .
Really professionals advise against uploading very high quality images to public photo sharing sites. This will help increase your chances of being approached for a purchase. A jpg is fine for a portfolio. You want to make it worth their while to contact you.burnzz wrote:

wow
i love this look.
Alejandro Chaskielberg’s project, The High Tide, depicts life in the remote community of the Paraná River Delta region in Argentina, where the river tides determine the activities and movements of its inhabitants. Chaskielberg, a 2009 PDN 30 Emerging Photographer, breaks with the tradition of documentary photography by casting real people in imagined situations based on their own lives. In his photographs, everyday reality is transformed into a dreamlike world where perceptions of color, light and space are challenged.
Drawing from his background in film, the artist carefully recreates scenes from his observations of the locals and photographs them at night. The light sources used to illuminate the images include moonlight, flashlights, strobes and lanterns, casting the scenes in an eerie, surreal light of unnatural colors. http://www.pdnphotooftheday.com/2011/06/9893

Nice stuff kim,
Does anyone have any knowledge in tripods?
Which brands are great, which are to be completely avoided?
I want something that can fit in my backpack, but will extend to ~1.5m, but isn't flimsy..
