Since most of you guys get spam from B&H, you may have seen this already.

I've always had a soft spot for hand tinted B&W prints.

Spring is sprung here in LA.  From LG G8 w/Lightroom:

 

Beautiful shot as always Peter, even though your subjects are all going to be close to home this Spring.

An enterprising local pro photographer has begun marketing a "front-porch" photo service. She sets up a session where a family poses on their front porch, while she photographs a safe distance away from the sidewalk. Social media posts seem to indicate she is doing well during this crazy time.

I hadn't heard of this phenomenon, until this article last week. Sounds like a good plan in this climate to me.  

Should anyone be interested Magnums revolving Square Print sale is back up for a few days. 50% of their proceeds go to Médecins Sans Frontières’s COVID-19 emergency response.

It's A-OK. I have had literally years worth of photos waiting to be worked with that I had just been too busy to do anything with until this recent pause.

Another great software deal. I don't know if it's Covid-related or just pimping their new cloud service, but hey a deal's a deal.  ON1 Photo RAW is going for 50 bucks. Personally, I like ON1 way better than Lightroom or Capture One, FWIW.

+ some human = Hopper

So I went outside for a bit at lunch. Took my camera with me. 

Turns out that my trusty D50 turned over 10,000 photos and reset the counter.

Here is image 10,001 -- not bad.

Feel like the old girl probably deserves a good cleaning... 

cheers

 

Not bad for your first photo! 

Wow...D50, old girl indeed!
