**Photography Talk**

If you could slide me that copy of FCP 7 that would be great.....I really would love a place to start learning.

Tried to send you a PM, but you don't allow them. Shoot me your email address and I can send you some info. If you want a copy, I"ll have you send me a small flash drive. I'd send you one myself, but out of the dozen or so times that I've done something like this, I've probably only gotten 1 sent back to me.
 
If any of you are interested, I made a thread about a documentary film I helped out with a few years back. [MENTION=75328]DannyLlama[/MENTION] [MENTION=63060]rickashay[/MENTION] I know both of you have expressed interest in the past.

Here's a brief video I just shot recently with my Mavic Pro drone. It's a vertical pan of a very tall palm tree at sunset:

Enjoy!
 
we finally had a moonless/clear night/on a weekend/when I wasn't tired. the moon wasn't rising until 12:40am and the Milky Way rose around 10:30pm so I hopped in my car and drove east of Denver. Normally I would go to the mtns or some where but I had to work until 9pm and I didn't want to run out of time. This is what I love about Colorado, I only had to go about 30mins east to see this beaut.
I drove to the Strasburg exit then turned back west on Colfax looking for a shot location. I drove past this truck a few times to make sure no one lived here. it was located on some land next to a giant shed. On google maps satellite it looked like there was another building located behind the shed further from the street but I wasn't able to see it(this is where really dark windows sucks). After a few trips up and down the street I decided to turn in to the driveway and hope I didn't get shot by a farmer. I walked around the shed to see there was no other buildings or anyone else around. Spent about 45mins here before all of the noises and darkness crept me out, plus the moon was going to come up shortly and drown it out.

shot details:
Canon 5D Mark IV
Canon f/2.8 16-35mm
ISO2500
30"
f/2.8 at 16mm
edited in LR6 and PSCS5

I used a high power (too high powered) LED light to light paint the foreground. since it was too bright I had to set it to its dimmest setting and use a shirt to dim it down even more.

the sky was still showing off so I decided to snap one more on my drive home

Last weekend, my wife and I spent the weekend in our favorite spot in Colorado (where we got married last July)…Crested Butte.

The wildflowers are starting to bloom and with all the moisture they've received (both snow and rain), the area is just FLUSH with lush green!!!!

Here's a trio of pics from the weekend:

Awesome shots! I'm really hoping to try my hand at this when I take my Nevada/Mojave trip next month.

make sure to check the moon schedule. a free app I use (iPhone) is Luna Solaria. it has the moon phases/rise/set time. nice little app to make sure you get a dark sky.

there is another one called TPE but it cost $9. it has a ton more info and better mapping.

Stephen (developer of TPE and PhotoTransit) just released TPE 3D this week. TPE 3D is absolutely NUTS…allows you to literally stand at a location and see how the light will illuminate your subject (or how the Milky Way will appear in your composition [using enhanced mode]). This a pretty amazing tool and well worth the $$ (IMO).

Rocky Mountains with my Nikon D750 and 24-70 f/2.8E VR

The lens is very sharp from corner to corner. Handheld. Un-edited.

Good photo and definitely appreciate you posting, but if possible could you avoid uploading via taptalk in the future? They seem to load oversized pictures for whatever reason.

And you have to say SOOC. Then you'll sound more legit. Stands for straight out of camera.
 
A few shots from this past week

Hey guys I have a number of jpegs that got corrupted during a transfer. The original files are no longer available. Can you point me to a utility, or way of bringing those files back, if that's possible? Thanks
 
are you meaning data recovery?

I have the corrupted jpeg files on a hard drive. I just can't open them. I can open the others jpegs, just handfull is not cooperating.
I get a message of "the picture format is not recognizable" on the corrupted files. I can't view them, Photoshop can't open them and renaming doesn't work.
I thought I bring this up on here just in case anyone here experienced this and how they solved it. Thanks
