  2. Re: Landscape Photography in the Portland Oregon area?

    Thanks for all the input.

    And when I said I am not interested in making a photo that's already been made, what I intended to convey is that I normally put a lot of effort into being at the right...
  3. Landscape Photography in the Portland Oregon area?

    I'll be in Portland, OR in late May this year, and will have a few days starting May 24 to dedicate to landscape photography. I have never spent any time in this area and am curious about...

    Re: How often use a polarizer + ND Grad

    I find a polarizer to be essential for landscape photography. Virtually all leafs have a reflective sheen that will reflect blue or gray skies - polarizers can remove that and allow the actual leaf...

    Re: Where did 13x19 come from?

    My guess is 13" inkjet printer and 35mm format. If you have a file from a 35mm camera or DSLR, and want to print full bleed on a 13" inkjet printer, you end up with a 13x19 print.

  7. Re: Confused about lensless photography and 4x5 camera

    You've done your homework. Time to go out and shoot. Pinhole photography takes experience. Go out, make some images, and learn from them. The world won't end if you screw up. That's part of the...
  8. Re: How to measure and time long exposures at dusk or dawn.

    The good news is the actual exposure time with long exposures isn't all that critical. For example, if you determine your exposure should be 2 minutes, a full minute underexposure is only 1 stop...

    Re: Anyone using a panning clamp?

    I had several Manfrotto 438's but they would break after about a year of steady use.

    The Acratech is the worst of the bunch for LF. The tightening screw would require very heavy cranking when...

    Re: Anyone using a panning clamp?

    The Acratech leveling base is nice, but nowhere close to being robust enough to support LF.

    I have used most of the leveling bases available. The RRS tripod with bowl leveling base is by far the...

    Speaking generically, droughts don't tend to change the timing of autumn color. They do cause trees that are stressed to give up for the year and either change color or just drop their leaves...

  19. Poll: Re: Bear spray when hiking into bear country – yes, no, maybe?

  23. Poll: Re: Bear spray when hiking into bear country – yes, no, maybe?

    Good points. Also need to consider that Moose are far mar dangerous than bears. And how many people carry Moose spray? ;)

  24. Poll: Re: Bear spray when hiking into bear country – yes, no, maybe?

    Key factor here is a bear in a neighborhood habituated to eating our of trash cans. That's a recipe for a bad ending (almost always for the bear). Very different than a black bear encounter in the...
  25. Poll: Re: Bear spray when hiking into bear country – yes, no, maybe?
