I think every photographer knows that taking pictures with the sun low on the horizon is better than when its right above. Recently I had the opportunity to capture a scene at Mid-Morning and at Sunset and the difference is striking!
Here's Soberanes Point at Garrapatta State Beach mid morning captured with an iPhone image of the scene. We were on the way back from Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park and it was a quick stop to check the beach out. It would have been easy to just take photos here at mid-morning and never come back.
You can tell by the image that this is a beautiful spot. The two rocks in the surf, the boulders on the beach and the amazing coastline to the north. The only problem is the flat light. The sun is already to harsh.
Earlier in my photography learning curve I would try to make the best of the light and try to make a compelling image in any light. I have learned that unless you are in a studio or have access to a huge lighting/light blocking set up dealing with a high sun leads to flat and rather un-interesting pictures.
Here's an image from the same spot(from our earlier stop we knew we wanted to work here during a sunset!), with the same iPhone 5s about 30 minutes before sunset.
The golden hues really help to set off the two rocks in the surf. The image has more depth and straight out of my phone with no editing. I think I could improve it with a brief trip through Lightroom.
Getting the right light does take effort to drop everything to get to the spot before the light disappears and luck that the clouds and sky will cooperate.
When I'm traveling with family etc. its really difficult to drop everything and run to the sunset spot and if I try for a sunrise I'm usually spent for the rest of the day! Therefore when I travel with my family I try to make the best of the current light scenarios which leads to many photos in mid-day light.
Thankfully my family is more than happy to stay home and let me head out on occasion with a group of hard corp photographers and hunt the best light. Wake up well before dawn, and take off at 2pm to get into place as the sun starts to dip behind horizon.
I made this image about 40 minutes after the previous iPhone capture with my Canon 5D Mark III on a tripod
Yes the technique to capture this image would have been much harder with an iPhone, I probably could have gotten close had I used a tripod for my iPhone, but I couldn't have made this image with mid morning sun.
Shooting landscapes is hard work… much harder than I ever imagined. Picking the right time of day requires planning and effort to get to the spot at the right time. It is rewarding when the effort pays off!
I guess that's true for any endeavor in life.

Pizza Hut is rolling out Gluten Free Pizzas(https://order.pizzahut.com/glutenfree) with Udi's Crusts in cooperation with Gluten Intolerance Group's(GIG) Gluten-Free Food Service Training & Management Certification Program (GFFS).
Erica over at Celiacandthebeast.com has the a fun write up!
Sounds like Pizza Hut is trying to roll this out with reasonable safeguards against cross contamination. That said contamination is still an issue, the restaurants are small, lots of people have the opportunity to mess up just once and there may be some that are still to sensitive to give it a try.
We'll probably give it a try when they arrive in our area as sometimes it's fun to just order a pizza!

Getting to this fantastic beach before sunrise requires a fun ride down California Highway 1 in the pitch dark! I had no idea how close we were to the massive cliffs over the Pacific Ocean! I'm glad I didn't know as we were in a hurry to get to Julia Pfeiffer Burns State park and McWay Falls! According to the Wiki on Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park , the property was owned from 1924 by US Representative Lathrop Brown who built one of he first electrified homes on this part of the coast and then dedicated the property to Julia Pfeiffer Burns as a donation to the State of California in 1961 and the home was torn down as part of the gift. Remnants of the home can still be seen right behind where i'm standing.
This photo was taken just as the sun starting to appear on the horizon to the left. There is evidence of a landslide into the cove a few few years back but it didn't really take away from the beauty of this location!
One of the reasons for getting there before sunrise was to try and capture a few stars over McWay falls.
I was pleased with this capture and happened to get the Orion over the falls!
Both images edited in Adobe Photoshop CS2014 and OnOneSoftware Perfect Photo Studio 9

I began the year with a text from my sister, Wendy Retzer asking if I wanted to participate in John Acuff's 10-Day Do Over Challenge. Having not heard of the challenge I asked for more information, looked it over and decided to give it ago. So far it's been a fun, thoughtful challenge! If you're ready for a DoOver I'd recommend giving it ago!
Day 5 is spending a few minutes to identify what motivates you! I discovered that Learning Motivates me and today I felt motivated to learn something.
Photos get better through editing. Great photos get better and bad photos can often become "not so" bad photos. One editing tool that I often use is Perfect Photo Studio from OnOneSoftware(It can be used as a stand alone app or as a plug in to Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop). Specifically the Perfect Effects portion of the suite. There are two tools that I have struggled to figure out when and where to use them.
Dynamic Contrast and Tonal Contrast.
Dynamic Contrast has its own group of separate effects and the Tonal Contrast effect is inside the Tone Enhancer group of effects.
Here's an out of the camera image on a gray cloudy day at Disney's California Adventure:
First edit in Adobe Lightroom 5:
Dynamic Contrast Filter Added in Perfect Photo Effects 9:
Tonal Contrast Filter from Perfect Photo Effects 9:
Screenshot from Perfect Photo Effects 9:
Screenshot of the Tonal Contrast tool:
This exercise is less about which image looks better and more about how the tools work. I've discovered that the Tonal Contrast filter gives me more options to fine tune the image in terms of darkness and lightness of the image. Dynamic Contrast appears to work in a slightly different way in that it works on the whole color range of the histogram. But i'm not entirely sure right now… I do feel it was easier to brighten up the image and keep the cloud detail with the Tonal Contrast tool. My thought process going forward is use Dynamic Contrast when I want to sharpen up the whole image and am satisfied with the overall exposure. Use Tonal Contrast when I want may need to also enhance the exposure a bit as well.
As I was looking for info about these two tools I found this quick video from Matt K talking about using the Dynamic Contrast tool and when not to use it in Perfect Photo Effects. Be careful using these tools on People!
I do use Perfect Photo Studio 9 for most of my images and I do receive a small referral fee should you choose to give it a try using any of the links on this page. Just click here to give it a try!

As the new year begins I think is good to step back and also consider what worked and didn't work last year. I'm not a fan of goal or resolution setting. Once I know the goal or resolution won't be achieved I give up. I think that makes me normal! This year I was again pondering the Goal/Resolution thing and ran across this post by non other than Tony Horton, of P90x fame! He wrote this article called Skip the resolutions and Create Intentions.
The idea of Intentions clicked! I create intentions!
I intend to do…
Last year one of my intentions was to improve my photography. Part of getting good images is getting to places that are interesting to photograph!
At the virtual last moment(Ok, I had a few months to plan, but really only had a few days from hearing about it to going) I was invited to join a photo trip to Iceland. Since I first saw images from Iceland over 10 years ago, I just knew I had to go… So I did. (Just had to share a few favorites that I don't think i've shared here)
Skogafoss-Edited in Adobe Lightroom 5 and Perfect Photo Studio from OnOneSoftware
Glow over the Glacial Lagoon-Edited in Adobe Lightroom 5 and OnOneSoftware Perfect Photo Studio 9
So in 2015:
I intend to continue to improve my photography skills!
I intend to improve my physical health!
I intend to improve my professional skills!
I intend to continue to build beneficial relationships!
I reserve the right to add intentions at anytime!
I will have a great time with my family!
Happy New Year!

On occasion the camera or iPhone isn't set to save the highest resolution images. This often isn't a problem until you go to print or make a book for Mom! I recently created a Blurb book and found a few images that received a warning from Blurb that the images may not print well. Do to the nature of the images, I could have easily made them smaller and included them with other images, but I wanted to test out Perfect Resize 9 from OnOneSoftware. This is an application that uses math to build more pixels! The image on the left below is the original out of an iPhone 5S(1536×2048) and the image on the right has been resized to 16X20(4800×6000) image in Perfect Resize 9. If you click on the images you can evaluate the original images in your browser.
What's great about Perfect Resize 9 is that you have the option to resize up to an appropriate print size. Most digital cameras shoot at 2×3 aspect ratio. Sometimes you want to print at 4×5. Instead of cropping and losing pixels, with Perfect Resize 9 you can upsize to 4×5. Obviously there are limits and images that won't upsize well, but for many images that are composed well and lit well the software does an amazing job!
Perfect Resize 9 is part of the Perfect Photo Studio 9 and can be purchased separately or bundled in the studio version!

We already knew that teens out-text the rest of us, but this year their mobile data consumption accelerated at an unprecedented rate as well.
Teens ages 13 to 17 used 256% more mobile data in the third quarter of 2011 than in the same time period of 2010. Teens took in 320 MB of data per month on average, with males using 382 MB and females using 266 MB. Adults between 25 and 34 still use the most mobile data, averaging 578 MB each month. The chart below shows a complete breakdown of mobile data usage by age.
For this study, Nielson analyzed recent mobile data from more than 65,000 U.S. subscribers. The study finds that the number of smartphone owners using mobile Internet has increased 45% this year, accounting for the widespread increase of mobile data usage.
When it comes to texting, teens' famously beloved mobile activity, they send seven texts per waking hour on average, or 3,417 messages per month. In Q3 of 2010 that number was higher, averaging 3,729 per month. Teen girls reign as texting queens, sending 3,952 messages per month. Teen boys, in comparison, send 2,815 texts per month.
Voice minute usage is on the decline, especially for teens. The group used 17% less voice minutes this year (down from 685 minutes to 572 minutes), preferring texting for its speed, ease and fun.

Troybilt HorseTiller transmission problem
I need help with a used troybilt tiller I just purchased. The serial # 842781 I don't have a manual and MTD was not able to help with what year or model I have. It has an eight horsepower engine. The problem I am having is with the speed part of the transmission. There is a lever that allows you to shift from high speed to low speed but I can't get it to move. I was told to rock it back and forth while shifting but that does not help. I tapped the gear lever down at the transmission but that did not help either.With it locked in high gear(i assume)it is hard to tile heavy soil and impossible to move without the engine running.(can't get it in neutral)Any suggestions on year made and or transmission.
The pivot on 2 speed lever is frooze up at pivot take a 3/4 wrench loosen nut see move if not take nut off clean parts make shour you get parts back right its friction disc this hold in place. 3/4 wrench will adjust ease of shifting if to easy it come out gear while operating. I have 2 troy bilt horses I had work over both of low and high speed lever pivots. One fall out high speed other one as yours lever would not move handle almost brake off if tryed change speeds.
Thanks Dave for the web directions. There is a ton of info. there(i joined today) also thanks to "baymee and "gator rider" you were right on your diagnosis! It was the linkage frozen at the friction disc. Rust! I removed the rust, lubricated the total linkage and reasembled everything and it works great
Disappointed, I am. I took Dave's advice and went to the Troybilt Tiller site and submitted an application to join. This morning I received an email letting me know that I had been denied membership. I'm not sure what I did wrong unless it was the bottom of the app. that ask me what information I wanted to receive(advertisement,notices)It was the standard app. with why do you want to join. My reason, I purchased a used Troybilt and was advised to join. Any ideas as to what I did wrong and how to correct whatever I did wrong?
Strange, since I also took the advice given in this thread and submitted an app on Wednesday. Yesterday, I received approval as follows:
Welcome to the troybilttillerclub group at Yahoo! Groups, a
free, easy-to-use email group service. Please take a moment to review this message.

Regards, Moderator, troybilttillerclub
Don't know if it made any difference, but I am and have been a member of other Yahoo Groups as well. Must be a simple glitch in the system . . . Yahoo has strict anti-spam software which automatically bounces suspect emails.
The two different names come from posting a follow-up. One is my zip code. I thought zone was my zip code but now know better and the SC is South Carolina. I am new at forums and could have put the wrong message in the Troybilt app.I don't want to offend the Troybilt Club by reapplying if it is a club for more experienced Troybilt owners. Until now I have used a shovel for tilling a small garden but this year bought a used Troybilt Horse. Of course there were no manuals or directions. I did go to the troybilt web site and printed the directions that were the closest to the horse I have. I'm learning tons of stuff from the Garden Web Forums and I can read the Troybilt Club threads. Life is good!

Oil rises more than 1 pct, boosted by weaker dollar
Abu Dhabi National Energy Co (TAQA) raised $215 million from the sale of a Malaysian ringgit-denominated Islamic bond, or sukuk, it said on Sunday, as part of plans by the state-run oil and gas utility to diversify its funding sources.
February 26, 2012 11:22 by Reuters
The ten-year sukuk carried a 4.65 percent profit rate with a full swapped rate to U.S. dollars of 5.3 percent, the company, which owns assets in Canada and Europe, said in a statement.
TAQA, which is 75 percent owned by the government of Abu Dhabi, upsized the bond from 500 million to 650 million ringgits, due to strong investor demand from Malaysian asset management companies and Islamic investors, the company said.
The sukuk was part of the firm's 3.5 billion Malaysian ringgit sukuk programme, which was established late last year.
Gulf borrowers are tempted to explore financing options in Malaysia to diversify funding sources away from dollar financing and to tap into an Islamic investor base.
National Bank of Abu Dhabi and Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank have both issued in ringgit previously, in response to high demand from Malaysian investors looking to gain international exposure in local currency.
"This successful transaction opens up a new market and debt structure for TAQA," Stephen Kersley, chief financial officer of TAQA said in the statement.
Standard Chartered was the lead arranger for the sukuk.
Earlier this month, Malaysia's RAM Ratings assigned a preliminary AA1 rating to TAQA's proposed sukuk Murabahah programme of up to 3.5 billion ringgit
In December, TAQA sold $1.5 billion in bonds maturing in five to ten years to refinance upcoming debt.
Abu Dhabi listed TAQA is a regular issuer of debt in global markets and benefits from implicit backing from the Abu Dhabi government as one of its strategic firms.

OpenACC Over OpenMP Proposed For GCC Compiler

As some more interesting GCC compiler news this week besides the
integration of Intel Cilk Plus support
C11 _Atomic support
being ready is a new competing implementation of the OpenACC parallel programming standard for the GNU Compiler Collection.
Back in September was a proposal out of Samsung for
OpenACC in GCC with GPU support
. That support hasn't been merged yet but now CodeSourcery is out with another implementation.
OpenACC is the parallel programming standard backed by Cray and NVIDIA and other firms to simplify CPU/GPU programming. The OpenACC approach is similar to OpenMP and this standard supports the C, C++, and Fortran languages. The big deal with OpenACC over OpenMP is support for GPU acceleration.
The approach done by Samsung in September had the OpenACC code being morphed into OpenCL 1.1 code for GPGPU execution since GCC doesn't have GPU support like in LLVM/Clang. The Samsung approach also targeted OpenACC 1.0 rather than OpenACC 2.0.
Now announced on Wednesday by Thomas Schwinge of CodeSourcery is an alternative implementation. This new implementation doesn't have any GPU side support, but it does have OpenACC 2.0 support and this implementation is all based off of GOMP, the GCC OpenMP support. With OpenMP and OpenACC being similar on the CPU side, CodeSourcery is leveraging the GOMP code-base. The OpenACC support ends up being embedded within the OpenMP infrastructure and passes. This implementation right now is still in early development form and only supports C while C++ and Fortran are to be forthcoming. There might also be some possibility for front/middle-end code sharing between the two OpenACC implementations for this open-source compiler.
Those interested in seeing this new GCC OpenACC work can visit the
GCC mailing list
. In the spirit of open-source, the best implementation shall win.

About me
Greetings, and welcome to my homepage. I am currently a Sagan postdoctoral fellow at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Caltech's Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences.
My current research focuses around computer simulations of circumstellar disks, with emphasis on the processes that lead to planet formation, such as magnetorotational turbulence, streaming instability, and disk vortices. A goal of this research is to establish a model that combines all the necessary physics to simulate the formation of planetary systems, and enable self-consistent comparisons with the astronomical observations.
I am also interested in icy moons and habitability. In addition, I have previously worked on star formation and stellar activity, both observationally. You can read more about my research here.
Research InterestsAccretion disks, exoplanets, planet formation, planet migration; fluid mechanics, magnetohydrodynamics, dust dynamics; star formation, young stellar objects, stellar atmospheres; code development, supercomputing. Icy moons, habitability.
