BTW: Just got my first print from Pixel2Canvas. They did a really great job processing and getting it to me. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/304855 mannedspace 2008-08-11T19:50:00Z 2008-08-11T19:50:00Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/304855" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1218506196.jpg"/></a><br> My little dancer after a 2 week Summer Dance Camp. Thank you Mary Lee and your staff for guiding my little angel into a wonderful dancer. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/303605 mannedspace 2008-08-01T15:48:12Z 2008-08-01T15:48:12Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/303605" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1217627304.jpg"/></a><br> Third image from Hiawassee, Georgia. Here are one and two. We've got three digit temperatures this weekend. Time to watch the electricity meter spin like a top! http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/303050 mannedspace 2008-07-28T20:43:41Z 2008-07-28T20:43:41Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/303050" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1217299813.jpg"/></a><br> This is Larry from Goldhagen Art Glass Studio. Detail image from his art is here. Looking forward to another trip to see these artists with my tripod of course. I've deleted so many glass blowing images because I hand-held my camera under low light - bright flame situation. Good thing I don't make a living with my images! http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302664 mannedspace 2008-07-26T10:14:59Z 2008-07-26T10:14:59Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302664" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1217088910.jpg"/></a><br> Thought I'd post an example of some of the old slide restoration work I've been working on. Tedious? Yup. Rewarding? Yup. This is a before - after example of some of the techniques I've been trying to correct images; but, it is tough to preserve their character. This is Ted Evers, my grandfather. This slide was taken in the late '40's - early '50's. I've got many images of him and this 1947 Pontiac. Here is an earlier post of him and his toy: link. BTW: I've finally come to the maximum allowable image storage so I'm having to decide which image to delete. Tough sometimes. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302497 mannedspace 2008-07-24T17:44:26Z 2008-07-24T17:44:26Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302497" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1216943081.jpg"/></a><br> Shot from Seneca Rock. A touch of LucisArt to bring out the colors that were hidden in the drizzle. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302044 mannedspace 2008-07-21T17:39:51Z 2008-07-21T17:39:51Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/302044" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1216683605.jpg"/></a><br> 2nd image from Hiawassee, Georgia.

He granted me permission to shoot over his shoulder and I did my best not to distract him from his tasks. Once again I kicked myself for not bringing my tripod. Will I ever learn!?!? Low light, bright hot subject, and hand-held just doesn't cut it. I'll see Larry next year with any luck. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/301714 mannedspace 2008-07-18T19:41:11Z 2008-07-18T19:41:11Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/301714" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1216431688.jpg"/></a><br> One of the many images I will be posting from my 2 week, 3500 mile road trip with the family. This is an image I captured while riding on the double Ferris Wheel in Hiawassee, Ga. I blasted it with LucisArt for fun. http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/300066 mannedspace 2008-07-08T10:42:47Z 2008-07-08T10:42:47Z <a href="http://mannedspace.visualblogging.com/archives/8045_1510383550/300066" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5539/pblog/8005/et_1215536009.JPG"/></a><br> I've been driving by this North Carolina barn for the last couple of days and looking for the time to stop. Yup, this is what greeted me. And yes I followed the rules (this time).
