Mark Gowin replied to the topic Big Cypress Egret in the forum Images to Share 12 years, 9 months ago
Hey David,
Roger has expressed interest in doing a photo trip to the Everglades so am glad to hear you are interested as well. I didn't have much time on this last trip as I would have liked and the clouds were not very good so my keeper rate was low this time around. I can't wait to geet back down there. I was talking with the ladies at…[Read more]

Hi Bob,
No I didn't wade into the water for the shot. I was literally just a few feet off the paved parking lot of Clyde Butcher's gallery.
I hadn't considered a desaturated color version but that could be interesting so I will give it a try. I have also thought about doing a warmer B&W conversion or maybe a light sepia tone.

Thank you for the nice comments guys. I have printed this at 13″ x 19″ (biggest I have at the moment) and I am extremely happy with it. I anxious to get it printed larger. However, I think there is some room for improvement in my processing technique before I go larger.

Josh, your photos of the Palm Beach Cavallino are torture for me. I am glad you made up to the show, but I hate I missed it this year. It is a humbling experience for us mere mortals (financially challenged).

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this software. I have suffered the purple line and have many affected images that will benefit from your software.

Mark Gowin replied to the topic Status update: long exposures, slow readouts in the forum S2 12 years, 9 months ago
The longest possible exposure is at ISO 160. As the ISO increases, the maximum exposure time decreases. I don't think there is a way to get more light into sensor than 125 seconds at ISO 160 or the equivalent combination if time and ISO rating. Also, the resulting images look pretty much the same as far as noise goes – regardless whether it is…[Read more]

I about spewed my drink when I read that. Good one David.
I like the drama of the B&W. I know we were there to capture fall colors, but in this case the B&W looks best to my eye.

This has to be the best “first post” I have ever seen in any forum. Your photos are exceptional. Each has their own feel and emotion and yet each are also technically excellent.

Mark Gowin replied to the topic S2 woes in the forum S2 12 years, 10 months ago
Andy,
Those are some serious woes. I hate to hear about your misfortune. In my opinion, your note to Leica is very reasonable considering the extent of your problems. I wish you the best in getting the problems sorted out.

Hi Eric,
I had the same problem with my sensor and I pretty much just wrote off those images. Now that I know you have a software tool to correct the image I would like to go back through my affected images to see if if I have any I want to get you to fix for me if you don't mind.

I like your sunburst. I have a similar photo from this past Fall. It is fun to catch this type of atmospheric condition in a photo.

Hi Arif,
Unfortunately, I have seen this before except my line was green. I was able to show this problem on my camera to Stephan Shulz and Toni Felzner (S2 product managers) at the S2 studio event during PhotoPlus in NYC last October. They indicated that it can be fixed with a custom firmware. I choose to send my S2 back to Germany for…[Read more]
