Taken in downtown Syracuse NY.  Four individual photos, hacked together using Pixelmator.  Photos taken with a Canon 40D 17-40 f/4LMakes a nice wallpaper if centered.  Large Version

Somehow I wound up under the table with Kalli, a 40D, 17-40 f/4L and a 530EXII - I think I had more fun then she did. Note the strobe reflection in the center of her eye (and the fool holding the strobe), the flash was bounced of the bottom of the table.

Photographed a friends band the other nite (The Mere Mortals) Got some interesting photos, but struggled with the lack of light. I brought my Canon 50mm 1.8 on a Canon 40D. Pretty happy with the high ISO results. Some post processing in Lightroom (cropping, saturation). In the end - I’m happy with the results. Should have more online soon.

You can enable a “Bonjour Browser” which allows you to add list of computers you connect to via the new ScreenSharing application in Leopard. To enable this run the following command in your terminal:

defaults write com.apple.ScreenSharing ShowBonjourBrowser_Debug 1 

Now relaunch ScreenSharing.app and you’ll have a nice browser to select computers from.  You can also add a computer to “My Computers” which leaves the connection in the list.

Enjoy…

Screen Sharing

Note: to change the value back run the same command and replace the one with a zero.

It was brought to my attention that the search by user-name function no longer worked… Well, now it does!

I had to revise a bit of server side code - you won’t need to update the application.

Cheers!

Grabbed this shot this morning after the rain. It’s some type of plant that we left outside when the first frost hit (i guess it’s called a dead plant now). Using an aperture of 1.7 I was able to get this shallow depth of field. The lens is a 50mm prime Minolta.

Took this shot this morning around 10AM in our backyard. It rained for about two days and the lighting this morning was really nice. The only post-processing done was a crop, I shot this in Aperture Priorty at 1.7 with a 50mm Prime Minolta. The green in the grass really came out.

Original Size Might make a nice wallpaper.

Using our new ‘beercan’ KM lens on a tripod I captured this photograph of two KM 50mm prime lenses. The lens on the left is the newer version of this lens and the one on the right the older.
