Decided to crop out the tide pool even though I liked it. Wanted to bring more attention to the fisherman. Also added fishing line, as it was not visible before.

I say if you like it, do it and look at others' work doing it, if you don't, then don't do it and shield your eyes from those that do. Personally, it all depends on the image, intended outcome and what someone is paying me to do. Methods vary, depending on what outcome I am striving to achieve.

As the moderator of the SL forum, I caution you to read some of the posts concerning getting ones registration. There have been some glitches in the system. Use the trial to be sure it is what you want. I have been using it for years and love it, but does not have traditional layers or a DAM and some other things that you might expect/want. But it can manipulate the hell out of an image, better and further than most. You also cannot go back and manipulate other than from where you finished once you accept/apply/save. A huge update is coming soon (if the author has not died, he has sort of disappeared these last couple of months, hopefully deep into programing) Updates are free for life at this time by the way. Great noise reduction and Bokeh programs included in the overall program. But as I said, purchase knowing there might be a problem. No one at the forum, including myself can help if this occurs. We await Rob Nelson's return. Of late, some of the people that had a problem getting their reg numbers have suddenly had their product become registered, so who knows. But again, please read what has been transpiring concerning this at the SL forum.
Update: The registration process seems to be working again, slowly but working

Not sure I would do this on my camera gear but I always remove the car dealer frame on my license plates and replace them with a plain one for the same reasons.:cool:

Like em alot. HDR and HDR type effects can be very artistic if done right and I think you did it. Perhaps not in photojounalism, but without manipulation, Ansel Adams images were pretty flat and not very appealing. (Not exactly the same thing, but you get the point. Different time, but still remains a truth)

So after searching high and low with no results, I decided to make my own. I took an old pair of reading glasses (they were actually +2.75) and ground down till I made a rectangle that fit directly on top of the existing viewfinder lens. I took this little rectangle, fit it inside a black rubber washer so it was deep set, then Krazy glued the washer onto the existing eyepiece. I now have enough + and - to wear or not wear my glasses (depending on the slider setting). I tried it out today and it works perfectly.:) Now I can get my eye much closer than I could with my glasses on.:cool: |

A quote from:
(RTTNews.com) - In an expected move, Eastman Kodak Co. (EK) said Thursday it has filed for bankruptcy protection for business reorganization. The struggling camera maker has obtained a life-line of $950 million from Citigroup Inc. (C) and expects to emerge from the restructuring in 2013 as a lean, profitable, digital imaging and materials science company.
The company, along with its U.S. subsidiaries, has filed voluntary petitions for chapter 11 business reorganization in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Units outside of the U.S. are not included in the filing and are not subject to Court supervision, the photographic equipment maker said.
The fully-committed $950 million debtor-in-possession credit facility from Citigroup has an 18-month maturity. The filing followed preliminary discussions with key constituencies.
Kodak expects the planned business reorganization to bolster liquidity in the U.S. and abroad, monetize non-strategic intellectual property, fairly resolve legacy liabilities, and enable it to focus on its most valuable business lines.
The company has already made important investments in digital and materials deposition technologies, following which about 75 percent of its fiscal 2011 revenue came from digital businesses. It expects to operate normally during chapter 11.
Kodak's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Antonio Perez said, "Kodak is taking a significant step toward enabling our enterprise to complete its transformation. Now we must complete the transformation by further addressing our cost structure and effectively monetizing non-core IP assets."
The Rochester, New York-based, 131-year-old company has been struggling to sell its non-core assets to stay afloat and to transform itself into a digital company. It has exited certain traditional operations, closing 13 manufacturing plants and 130 processing labs, and has reduced workforce by 47,000 since 2003.
Kodak has already licensed out its projector patents and sold its image sensor unit to generate cash in recent months and was aiming to sell more of its non-core assets to help its raise $1.3 billion to $1.4 billion in cash by the end of 2011. It has also been trying to sell its portfolio of more than 1,100 patents since July. However, those efforts failed amid rumors of an impending bankruptcy filing.
Perez added, "Chapter 11 gives us the best opportunities to maximize the value in two critical parts of our technology portfolio: our digital capture patents, which are essential for a wide range of mobile and other consumer electronic devices that capture digital images and have generated over $3 billion of licensing revenues since 2003; and our breakthrough printing and deposition technologies, which give Kodak a competitive advantage in our growing digital businesses."
The company is currently engaged in patent disputes with many technology companies. It recently filed patent infringement suits against Apple Inc. (AAPL), HTC, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., (SSNLF.PK) and Fujifilm Corp. alleging infringement of certain Kodak patents relating to digital imaging technology.
Kodak shares closed Wednesday's trading at $0.5547, up 4.44 percent, and gained 6.36 percent further in the after-hours trading to close at $0.59. The shares have lost nearly 90 percent of its value in the past 52 weeks on the NYSE.
