Painting back time.

Posted 3 months ago

Just wanted to show a photo I was asked to restore by an old friend.
I was asked if I could re-work the photo of her parents wedding into colour. I said I’d have a go and do my best, but she would have to give me some clues as to what the colours were first.
So, with that info in my mind I took a shot of the photo with my camera as a starting point, then loaded the file into PS and started wo…

RB Groups - Question

Posted 3 months ago

I’m trying to organizer/refresh the content in some of the groups where my images are a part of.
For example, I have some images in the ‘People and Portraiture’ group which only allows 2 images. I’d like to take these 2 images out of the group and replace them with 2 new ones. So, as I have many people and portrait images on my gallery (not all of them in groups), is there a way to know which …

How To - Blending Exposures Together, Manually.

Posted 6 months ago

I thought I’d share a quick way to blend exposures.

Ok, so I'm a 'hacker'

Posted about 1 year ago

I found a hack on the net about extending a Canon OCSC2 TTL cable yesterday, I’ve never been happy with the length of this cord, especially when mounting the strobe to my monopod, as a kind of ‘strobe on a rope’ setup.
So, pretty much following the info I found for this hack , I decided to c…

Holy crap, how many thousand did I shoot?

Posted about 1 year ago

................a common question some us ask ourselves in the wee hours (usually about 1am) after a long wedding shoot.

............now to process them all, sheesh.

Luckily for us, there are some very good tools out there (like Adobe Lightroom) that can help us reduce this pile of work considerably.
While going for my usual walk around the net tonight (kicking stones) I stumped my toe o…
