I have, maybe, intermediate skills in the art of photography but I am hoping that there will be more posts about the nature of Lighting as used with digital cameras. Lighting as used in both BW and Color, still and action. I am particularly interested in the art of indoor lighting and rendering meaningful photos indoors; angles, proportion, etc. Thanks, Jim Hi,

I do hope there will be more posts on this blog soon.

They can print your photographs on one side, your contact information on the other, and they're resonably priced, something like $20 for 100.

I'd suggest you download and have a play with Lightroom whilst it is still free just to see if it offers anything extra that you might not know that you need.

Add-in Neat Image for the odd photo riddled with grain or noise interference and things couldn't get any better. Not at this price point, anyway. Now, if only I could convince the Gimp folks to jack up the priority for 16-bit colour... I’m finding the comjbination of Picasa and Gimp the ideal for my workflow.

Mon, 04 Dec 2006 02:51:12 +0000 http://halfcooked.com/blog/2006/12/04/in-praise/#comment-1679 I think one of the coolest thing about 'screen' is the fact that it keeps running, even if you lose your connection. For example, I will often by using my laptop at school between classes, and sometimes log into my server at home. If I want to start a big Gentoo update, I can start up screen (on the server), begin the emerge, and then disconnect. The emerge will continue to run in the screen process, despite the fact that I close my ssh connection to the server. Also good for accidental disconnects, if you're doing work on a server with a spotty network connection.
