Johan Vineyards Three Barrel Pinot noir 2012

This wine's beyond my comprehension.
I've been tasting Oregon Pinot noir professionally for eleven years, yet writing about wine in a meaningful way gets continually more challenging. I'm in an active battle against overly flowery tasting notes - the ones that mention fruits or flora that few people on earth have ever smelled or tasted - because they're mostly BS, and because they perpetuate snobbery that I don't like.
It's my job to advise you what to buy in an honest, down-to-earth way. I strive to use accessible descriptors and imagery. After three weeks' effort, I'll admit this wine is beyond my comprehension. It is awesome. With that, my advice: buy Johan Three Barrel Pinot noir 2012.
There will be other Pinot noirs - there always are - but there will not be another like Johan Three Barrel 2012. It is a standout wine in a standout vintage.
This wine is an experience, a process, an enigma. It is super-complex and aromatically bold in a way that after three weeks' effort I still can't describe. It is like floating on a pillowy cloud of red fruit. It is silky and elegant in a way that only Pinot noir can be. It is drink-the-whole-bottle tasty right when you open it, and bury-in-the-cellar-for-a-decade age-worthy. It is so beyond comprehension that we scrapped our original Reserve Pinot wine club selections for July to include it.
Johan's goal with Three Barrel is to maximize aromatic complexity and perfume, to select the three most alluring and exotic barrels from the vintage, ending up with aroma and flavor characteristics that are beyond their comprehension, and mine.�
2008 vintage notes: Usually, I keep my cool when tasting wine at the store. I tend to "filter" my thoughts, not showing my hand, whether I love a wine or think it sucks.
The other day I had a visit from the folks at Johan Vineyards, and I broke my own rule. They poured a few new releases, which I liked, then the subject wine: 2008 Three Barrel Pinot noir. Without thinking, I blurted out "holy sh#t!" before looking up at the two wide-eyed visitors. The aromas alone were cuss-worthy and once I had a mouthful, I'm pretty sure I repeated myself...
Unique is an overused word, but I'm using it anyway - there are flavor components of this wine that I haven't tasted in any other 2008 Oregon Pinot. Fascinatingly complex, it's almost as if the wine was "aromatized" - the botanicals that are interwoven from nose to finish flipped my lid.
Juicy black cherry and raspberry provide the fruit center, with a sweet-bitter interplay that adds a perfect tension. Expect this to age extraordinarily well, with spot-on balance and alcohol at 12.8%. One of the last 2008 new releases was entirely worth the wait - Johan Three Barrel 08 is one of my top 10 2008 Oregon Pinots.
As you've likely guessed, the "Three Barrel" aspect of the name refers to the production level - only 72 cases were made. If you collect Oregon Pinot, you need this wine. Give it the right amount of time and I bet you'll say the same thing I did...

JOBO photoGPS
Latest Camera Reviews
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G80 Review
The JOBO photoGPS is a small and lightweight GPS receiver that fits directly on any digital camera's hot shoe. The photoGPS allows for automatic geo-tagging by capturing raw GPS data and time, which it stores in its own internal memory. "JOBO's new photoGPS has been designed to be easy-to-use and extremely compact allowing it to be a travel-friendly accessory for people wanting to share the joy of their adventurous lifestyle with others. Other mostly organizer-based geo-tagging solutions can be both expensive and/or cumbersome." said Johannes Bockemuehl-Simon, JOBO's CEO. The JOBO photoGPS will cost €159,00 / £159.99 and will be available for Windows operating systems in November 2008. Mac OS versions will be released by the end of 2008.

JOBO AG Press Release
JOBO AG launches photoGPS at photokina 2008
New capture and process technology provides a lightweight and easy-to-use GPS unit that significantly changes the way photographers track a photograph's exact location
Gummersbach, Germany (September 17, 2008) – JOBO AG announces today the availability of the new JOBO photoGPS – a small and lightweight Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver that fits directly on any digital camera's hot shoe, just as if it were a regular flash unit, without the need for extra cables. Through an innovative new capture and process technology, this affordable new device allows automatic geo-tagging by capturing raw GPS data and time which enables new and more efficient ways to organize, search, visualize, and share photo collections.
"In response to today's mobile lifestyles, geo-tagging of photographs is becoming an increasingly popular technology for today's picture-taking consumers," said Johannes Bockemuehl-Simon, JOBO's CEO. "JOBO's new photoGPS has been designed to be easy-to-use and extremely compact allowing it to be a travel-friendly accessory for people wanting to share the joy of their adventurous lifestyle with others. Other mostly organizer-based geo-tagging solutions can be both expensive and/or cumbersome. Our goal at JOBO was to automate this process, which we have accomplished with our breakthrough new photoGPS and capture and process technology enabling photographers to find specific images that they want to share within seconds."
Each time a photographer's digital camera takes a picture with the photoGPS attached to the camera's hot shoe, JOBO's photoGPS automatically captures raw GPS data too and stores this information in its own internal memory. When the photographer has finished taking photographs, they unload their photos onto their PC in their normal way and transfer the companion raw GPS data information onto the PC with the included JOBO photoGPS software. Matching times and locations is quick and easy, since the photos and raw GPS data were captured simultaneously.
Next, the JOBO photoGPS server (accessible via the Internet) provides historic GPS satellite information corresponding to the times the raw GPS data was recorded. This is used by JOBO's PC software to calculate the locations, reverse geocodes them, and geotags the photos with the resulting location information such as Country name, Region and District, City, Postal code, Street name, and nearby points of interest (POIs) such as tourist attractions, beaches, mountain peaks, museums, opera or theatre houses, concert halls, sport stadiums, parks, etc. In addition, Latitude, Longitude and Altitude are also available.
And the JOBO photoGPS consumes very little power. One capture just needs 18 Megajoule (MJ). It is the camera's flash synchronization connection that instantly awakens photoGPS.

"Memory capacity: around 1000 locations (build in 128MB memory)"
Uh? each location requires ~120kiB data? that's possibly wrong. Coordinates and at most time info, can't take that much space.
Good idea, but the 1k shots limitation doesn't help for 2-3 weeks' photo shooting trips.
"One capture just needs 18 Megajoule (MJ)"
Wow, now that's the silliest comment I've ever seen in a press release
18MJ == Energy consumed at 18Mwatt power during 1 second.
or we can also say...
18MJ == the energy needed to lift a 183 tons stone up to 10m height
And that's little? =) Yes, sounds like press release guys can't distinguish millijoules from megajoules =)

2006 Nissan Quest Minivan 3.5 SL 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
From what I have been reading, I have been lucky cause I havent had this many problems but all in all if I had to do it again, I wouldnt. Bought it new in July of 2006, I wanted the Honda but wifey liked the Nissan and since its primarily her car I went with it, mistake right there. I doadmit I like the roominess of it but thats where it stops. We have only had 49000 miles on it in 6 1/2 years but so far nothing major but its the little things. First of all, its not very quiet, its made cheap from the inside, yes our vents fall off too. The rear sliding door started making noise while driving and dealer kept lubricating but nothing.
Roomy. That is the only good thing I can say.
Stuff I dont like, Seats arent comfy, interior is cheap, too much engine noise, dvd player under passenger seat, turning radius (hard to park in tight spots), cant find replacement tires other than the oem ones cause the size was custom made for Quest.
Use better material.
Lovely looking, but at 30,ooo miles steering column failed.Is this a lemon/ Beware.
Appearance, roominess of cabin
Too muuch glare from dashboard on bright dayss
We are SO relieved to get rid of this junk. We traded our Nissan minivan in for a new Toyota Sienna. The biggest difference is the customer service. Nissan was incompetent, unresponsive, and useless in solving our problems. We too settled with the Lemon Law Practice and cashed in after fighting for 2 years with Nissan headquarters. I even wrote a letter to the CEO himself. So much for the "customer is always right". After 11 recalls, 4 rentals, 19 visits in less than two years there were still problems. Nissan took the fun out of having a new vehicle. Toyota put the fun right back in! I have had the Toyota for nearly 4 months and not one problem. They have been terrific!
Interior Design looks good, but the quality does not match.
Improve customer service, better quality installation of interior features (including the installation, doors, radio, lights, locks... etc)
We just came from a 3200 mile driving vacation to the east coast and back to Kansas. Our van performed excellent and almost matched the rated mileage of 25 mpg. we got 24 mpg with the ac on, averaging 70 mph, and having the van fully loaded with people and cargo. We were happy about that. Also, all of our family that saw, rode in, and drove the van were very impress with the comfotable ride, power of the engine, roominess of the interior, and the cool design. No problems with the van whatsoever.
Design, powerful and efficient engine, roominess, sound quality, and on the money gas mileage.
we've had the van for 3 months now and love it. It's an eye catcher, drives really smooth, has plenty of power and interior space. The gas tank doesn't fill up with 20 gallons but 16 so that saves us on gas allowance. I've been recommending the van to everyone that asks what is it and answer all their questions because I've also researched all the vans for a year and a half before we bought it with 5000 dollars off the sticker price. It was the best value for the high quality. Odyssey too overpriced and overrated, T&C/Caravan too unreliable, sienna not flexible enough with middle seats not able to fold down, and Sedona too heavy in total weight not flexible enough and unknown.
the unique different artistic design of it because our family is different and original.
None at all.

The Perfect Mother's Day at The Homestead, Virginia
How do we love The Homestead? Let us count the ways. Historic hot springs that have rejuvenated travelers since the 1700s. An obscene amount of recreational activities (want to indulge your inner sportsman? Take to the hills for falconry or fly fishing. Prefer to take it easy? Relax in the Spa and naturally-heated pools). Ten dining options--from the dressed-down casual to elegantly formal. Dazzling guestrooms with oodles of amenities. The scenic setting and surrounding countryside of Virginia's Allegheny Mountains. A superb Children's Program. Golf, tennis and all that jazz. Overall, the best kind of digs to bring your mom to celebrate Mother's Day. Over the weekend of May 12-14, mothers are honored and adored. The Homestead's special Mother's Day Package, starting at $219 per person, includes luxurious accommodations, breakfast daily, afternoon tea and nightly movies in the historic theater, choice of manicure or pedicure, photograph sitting, use of sauna and steam room, and of course the spectacular Mother's Day Brunch. Two night minimum stay required.

Website Design
In this current competitive local and global online arena, it is vital to choose a company for website development in Adelaide that understands all facets of a successful online presence and designs websites that reflect the overall strategy while understanding the important technical specifications and marketing needs of the client.
We help identify the best ways to obtain the highest exposure on the Internet for our clients by presenting the best possible online image to potential customers. Our designers also understand the importance of the user online experience and how to best make a website engaging to the customers. We employ the latest site technologies as well as social media integration to not only create a great online experience for the customer, but also virally promote the website to others.
Our website development team uses the most powerful content management system (CMS) in the World today: WordPress. WordPress has become the de-facto standard platform for powerful and diverse websites. In the simplest terms, WordPress is a website platform that accommodates creating, publishing, distributing, organizing and the management of online content. WordPress creates the structure of how web content such as articles, videos and images will be displayed. Additionally it provides tools for populating a website with content. The CMS also provides tools for the curation, archiving and organizing the content. Depending on the needs of our client, the CMS can be designed for use by a highly technical webmaster or can be simple and intuitive for use by an untechnical website administrator.
WordPress is the perfect solution for publishing time-sensitive material and facilitating communication between a business and its customers. This may include:
- E-Commerce websites and systems
- Information news and article management
- Multimedia delivery
- Surveys & polls
- Photo galleries
- Resource archives
- Job posting boards
- Advertisement & promotion management
- Discussion forums
- Mobile application platforms
- Blogs
- Social media integration
- RSS integration
- And much more
Our WordPress content management system is designed to put you in complete control of your website content and customer engagement while making it easy to keep your website current and updated.
All our WordPress design work is fully customized. Our clients simply need to communicate to us how they would like their website to work and together we will design and build a website with the tools needed improve any online business.
Additionally, WordPress provides the most expansive development community of extension developers in the world. Being the largest CMS on the planet provides scalability and expandability. Our expert WordPress website development team will apply industry best practices to equip your business with a site that is visually impressive as well as highly adaptable across multiple web platforms.
The way consumers browse the Internet has rapidly evolved recent years. Now we use desktops, laptops, tablets and Internet capable phones to access the Internet. The dimensions of each of these devices various dramatically, so web developers use a technology called responsive HTML to create one website that looks and functions well on all devices. With the increasing usage of handheld mobile devices, it is not acceptable any longer to have a website that does not work properly on a tablet and mobile device.
Therefore, our Adelaide website developers create sites with a full responsive package to take advantage of this technology as well as reach as many consumers as possible.
Mobile Responsive Website
A mobile responsive website is a website that properly adapts to the device of each unique visitor no matter what type of device they are using. A responsive website dynamically resizes the site text content, images, video, and other content to adapt to the variety of screen sizes and palettes in order to ensure the website is aesthetically pleasing and well as functional on any device. In responsive design, web page elements shuffle as the viewing area changes size by growing or shrinking. For instance, a three-column full screen desktop design may reshuffle to two columns for an iPad or similar tablet and down to a single column for a smartphone display. Responsive design functions on proportion grids to arrange and alter content and design elements.
Mobile web usage is expanding at an extremely fast rate presenting businesses the opportunity to reach a much larger audience than ever before. Websites that are not optimized for mobile usage and performance leave an enormous amount of business on the table. Our professional responsive website designs deliver exceptional experiences for both desktop and mobile users.
As a professional web designer in Adelaide, we produce websites for an optimal viewing experience by embedding Internet standards-based technology into our designs. Therefore, we create them not only to be extremely flexible but also adaptive to the various media that displays the sites. It is this design methodology that delivers exceptional visual experiences regardless of the user display and limitations or capabilities of the web device they are using.
Our web design team plans and develops fantastic responsive websites that will increase your conversion rates and overall traffic volume. In addition, we make sure your website is prepared for future mobile development for the Internet.
Investing in a high quality website is the first impactful step of establishing an online presence, but equally vital is driving quality website visitors to your site. We accomplish this by tailoring your material to cater to consumers who are already searching for the services and products that you offer.
As part of our development process, we understand your digital goals and marketing plans to see how search engine optimization (SEO) fits in. We then evaluate your website's structure and content, perform extensive keyword research, develop content curation for every page of the website and then customize a powerful linking strategy. Since SEO is so dependent on strong site content, we also provide very effective copywriting that supports these search ranking goals. Search engine optimization is a perpetual process and we continually optimize your website as needed and as the Google ranking methods change. Please contact our SEO specialists to learn how to combine this powerful strategy with our website development services.

How To Avoid Over Sharpening
December 29, 2015 | Leave a Comment |
Identifying and developing a sensitivity for the artifacts digital sharpening produces will help you choose a sharpening method and what settings to use during any stage of your sharpening workflow. You can easily see the artifacts digital sharpening produces by overdoing it. Apply a filter like Unsharp Mask at maximum strength and look closely at what happens.
Following are the seven most common digital sharpening artifacts.
1. Noise
2. Exaggerated Texture
3. Visible Light Halos
4. Visible Dark Lines
5. Loss of Highlight Detail
6. Loss of Shadow Detail
7. Increased Saturation
These artifacts can be reduced in one or more ways.
Read more on Digital Photo Pro.
If you know what to look for, you'll know what path to choose and how far down it to go. Training your eye for what to look for and understanding the upper limits of what other people find to be naturalistic, or at least not distracting, is the first step to developing your unique sharpening style. The second step is learning how to produce certain effects and avoid others with the tools at your disposal. Once you've taken these steps, you can take the third and final step, knowledgeably putting craft in the service of your vision to make compelling visual statements. Enhancing detail is one area of expertise that's well worth mastering for all photographers.

How To Evaluate All Photoshop Color Adjustment Tools
December 16, 2015 | Leave a Comment |
The Photoshop Color Adjustment Tool Survey – The Go To, The Exotic, And The Redundant
You can evaluate any color adjustment tool, in any software – past, current, or future –based on the control it offers over one or more of the three elements of color – Luminosity, Hue, and Saturation.
Use this as a strategy for quickly mastering the intricacies of color adjustment in Photoshop: own the six go to tools; familiarize yourself with the eight exotic tools; forget about the eleven redundant tools.
Go To Color Adjustments
There are a six color adjustment tools I shudder to think of living without; Curves, Hue/Saturation, Vibrance, Selective Color, Photo Filter, and Black & White
Curves offers the ultimate control over luminosity; no other adjustment offers such precision over the relative darkness and lightness of shadows and highlights. Using the separate channels, Curves offers the same kind of precision when adjusting hue.
Hue/Saturation and Vibrance are the two essential tools for adjusting saturation.
What's the difference? Vibrance saturates less saturated colors more and prevents clipping in very saturated values, producing a heavier appearance. Hue/Saturation produces a lighter more intense effect, so use it cautiously; you can quickly clip values, producing an overly smooth, overly saturated synthetic appearance if used aggressively. Similarly, handle its Hue slider with care; it's really more useful for color transformation than it is color enhancement. Unlike Vibrance, Hue/Saturation offers the ability to adjust individual hues without the need for masking. Neither has the ability to selectively adjust the saturation of highlights, midtones, and shadows; for this you'll need a luminosity mask. Vibrance provides only a very limited ability to selectively adjust colors with different levels of saturation while Hue/Saturation provides none. (For a way to do this read my article Saturation Masking on DigitalPhotoPro.com.)
Photo Filter offers the ability to adjust the hue and to a more limited degree saturation of an image much like an analog lens filter would do, only much more precisely and flexibly. Though less intense, it preserves hue variety better that a Color Fill layer set to a blend mode of Color.
Selective Color trades in subtlety, referencing CMYK adjustments without leaving RGB working spaces. Its ability to adjust the hue of whites, neutrals, and blacks and its ability to mix white and black into other hues, producing reduced saturation tints and shades, makes it unique.
Black & White is the simplest and most powerful tool for converting color to black and white, first reducing saturation to zero and then adjusting luminosity based on original hues. It shines brightest when used in combination with Hue/Saturation and when applied selectively with masks in multiple passes.
Exotic Color Adjustments
You'll see and think about color differently once you use Photoshop's three most exotic color adjustment tools; Color Lookup Tables, Gradient Map, and Match Color. (For more detail on each of these adjustments read my previous articles on DigitalPhotoPro.com.) They affect luminosity, hue, and saturation in complex non-uniform ways.
Color Lookup Tables combines multiple color routines or recipes into a single adjustment, making it easy to create consistent effects across multiple images; it's most frequently but not exclusively used for color grading the many stills in a video.
Gradient Map uses the luminosity values of an original to selectively distribute new colors into an image.
Match Color applies the color values of one image to another, based on a complex statistical analysis of the color relationships in both; it has an added benefit of being able to neutralize strong color casts, such as those found in underwater exposures, without the use of a second image.
Five other exotic color adjustment tools are worth noting.
While preserving shadow and highlight detail is best done during exposure and Raw conversion, and while you can mask a Curves adjustment to the shadows or highlight, both the adjustment Shadows/Highlights and HDR Toning offer occasionally useful sharpening options that Curves doesn't, in the form of Radius sliders, which potentially makes them more related to detail enhancement than color adjustment.
Cast Equalize (resets dynamic range), Posterize (reduces gradation), and Threshold (reduces all values to pure black or white) into the really exotic category. They have real uses for very graphic images and for analysis but offer little that is useful for photorealistic images.
Redundant Color Adjustments
Part of mastering a tool is learning what not to use. Many of Photoshop's color adjustment tools are redundant, offering similar control over the same elements of color – with less power and precision. You can simplify your toolset by eliminating these eleven adjustment types from your workflow. Instead, use the tools that give you more control.
Brightness/Contrast (Use Curves instead.), Exposure (Use Curves instead.) Levels (Use Curves instead.), Color Balance, (Use Curves instead.), Invert (Use Curves instead.), Equalize (Use Curves instead.), Desaturate (Use Hue/Saturation instead.), Replace Color (Instead, use Select By Color Range and then Hue/Saturation.), and Channel Mixer, Apply Image, and Calculations (Instead, use Layer Styles to blend channels, with or without a mask. (For more on this technique see my previous article Blending Channels on DigitalPhotoPro.com.)
See the pattern(s)? Two adjustments, Curves and Hue/Saturation, and one layer technique can outperform all of these eleven adjustments.
Blend Modes
You can make any color adjustment in Photoshop more precisely target an element of color by using one of four Blend Modes – Luminosity, Hue, Saturation, and Color (a combination of Hue and Saturation). Simply change an adjustment layer's blend mode from its default Normal. If, instead, you apply an adjustment directly to an image, immediately after applying it, select Edit: Fade (Command / Shift / F) to change the Mode. As a general guideline for all color adjustments, I recommend you make a standard practice of using the blend mode of the element of color you are adjusting, making exceptions when desired.
Lightroom & Camera Raw
Can the separate but related programs Lightroom and Camera Raw do things that Photoshop can't? Yes. While the majority of these two interfaces, which differ in appearance but not in function, provide controls that are quite similar to but sometimes more limited than what you find in Photoshop, they can do three things that can't be done in the same way in Photoshop: first, White Balance (Curves and Photo Filter are similar but different.); second, Clarity (High Pass filtration is similar but different); and third, the HSL panel is able to produce luminosity adjustments of individual hues without adverse side-effects on dynamic range.
While the precision of the adjustments provided in Lightroom and Camera Raw is often more limited, it's usually best to do the basic heavy lifting during Raw conversion – it's less destructive – and then either dramatic transformations and/or fine-tuning in Photoshop.
In the future, if we discover a single interface that allows us to precisely and without side-effects control the luminosity, hue and saturation of any range of brightness (L), colors (H), and intensities (S), then we'll have found the Holy Grail of color adjustment. For now, the Photoshop interface, a product of more than 25 years of continual expansion, is more complicated than it needs to be, but it's capable of producing magic – so much magic. When you clarify your thinking about color, you'll find it becomes much easier to navigate interfaces and master color adjustment. Keep it simple. Remember, color only has three elements – Luminosity, Hue, and Saturation – so color adjustment is all about controlling the relationships between them … nothing more and nothing less.

Photoshop's Match Color May Change The Way You Think & See
December 17, 2014 | Leave a Comment |
How was this effect created? See the illustrations below.
Little explored and capable of opening up whole new frontiers in color adjustment, Photoshop's Match Color is a tool every user should be aware of, even if it's only to know what's possible.
There are three primary reasons to consider using Match Color.
1 – Match two colors exactly.
(Match the color of one object to another.)
2 – Remove strong color casts.
(It's great for neutralizing underwater casts.)
3 – Creatively apply the color in one image to another.
(This will blow your mind!)
A few tips will help you make the most of this fascinating tool …

4 Reasons You Should Use Photoshop's Smart Objects
June 5, 2014 | Leave a Comment |
Smart Objects are smart layers, and they have been in Photoshop for years. They have been evolving, but few people truly understand them and fewer still take full advantage of them. There are major benefits to learning what Smart Objects offer you and how they can change your workflow. Here are four things Smart Objects can do for you.
1. Change Or Update RAW Conversion Settings.
2. Apply Filters Nondestructively.
3. Apply Nondestructive Scaling And Distortion To Layers.
4. Blend Multiple Exposures Or Layers With Stack Modes.
The first benefit, Change Or Update RAW Conversion Settings, is the most essential; something every Photoshop user should know how to use. Here's how to use it.
Whether you're using Lightroom or Bridge/Photoshop, if, and only if, you acquire a RAW file as a Smart Object, by double-clicking it, you'll be able to change conversion settings and even update the RAW-processing algorithms to the latest version. Forgot to adjust a setting? Found better settings? Want to take advantage of advances made in the latest process version of ACR? All of these are reasons to use Smart Objects.
To acquire a RAW file as a Smart Object in Lightroom, go to Photo > Edit In > Open As Smart Object In Photoshop. With Adobe Camera Raw, click the blue underlined line at the bottom of the window to access Workflow Options and check Open In Photoshop As Smart Objects, which will set this as a default for opening files. The Open Image button will change to Open Objects. Notice that in Photoshop the bottom layer uses the file name instead of Background, and it contains a small rectangular icon that indicates it's a Smart Object.
But wait, there are three more reasons to use Smart Objects. You'll find the steps for the other three benefits detailed in my column on Digital Photo Pro.
There's more than one kind of Smart Object; those that reaccess Raw file data and those that don't. Smart Objects have limits; the list is steadily diminishing. Smart Objects come at a price; larger file sizes. While Smart Objects aren't simple, but they're extremely powerful and flexible. For this reason, I consider them essential components of an optimum Photoshop workflow. Exactly how and when you implement Smart Objects will depend on the specific challenges you face with a given image. While everyone needs to be aware of the possibilities Smart Objects offer, make your use of Smart Objects as simple as possible, but not simpler. You'll find that even the most minimal implementation of Smart Objects will be extremely helpful.

Using Adobe Camera Raw As A Filter
February 17, 2014 | Leave a Comment |
Photoshop CC introduced a long-awaited feature that will change how you adjust your images, when you adjust your images and what you adjust your images with—the ability to use Camera Raw as a filter.
Since it was introduced, Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) has been the industry-standard tool for processing RAW files—the beginning of a digital photographer's workflow before moving into Photoshop. Sometime later, ACR extended its functionality to other file types like JPEGs. Today, you can use its full power at any point in your workflow while working in Photoshop. This opens up many new possibilities.
Using the Adobe Camera Raw Filter is useful for noise reduction, detail enhancement, color adjustment, localized lens correction, creative distortion and even tone-mapping 32-bit HDR images. Go beyond the maximum setting of Clarity, with two ACR Filters. Set different white balances for different regions of an image. Apply Lens Correction distortions locally. Global, local, double and crossprocessing—the ACR Filter can do it all.
While the ACR Filter revises workflow, it doesn't rewrite it completely. It's still better to do the lion's share of image adjustment during RAW conversion with ACR or Lightroom (both offer the same RAW conversion engine)—preferably as a Smart Object so you can easily change the settings or update the process version. For instance, you'll get better shadow and highlight detail using ACR during conversion than you will using the ACR Filter after conversion.
So when would you use the Adobe Camera Raw Filter? When the ACR toolset does something Photoshop's toolset doesn't. Or, when the ACR Filter does a task more quickly and easily, without sacrificing quality or flexibility. To decide this, compare the two toolsets …

Photoshop Blur Filters Compared
December 23, 2013 | Leave a Comment |
Before Blur FX
After Blur FX
There are many reasons to explore blur in your images: remove distractions, direct attention, enhance space, modify mood and add interesting visual artifacts are a few among many. Blur can be controlled at the point of capture and in post-processing. Thoroughly understanding your post-processing options will help you make choices about when and how to control blur in your images before, during and after exposure.
When it comes to post-processing blur, you've got options! Photoshop currently offers 14 filters: Field Blur, Iris Blur, Tilt-Shift, Average, Blur, Blur More, Box Blur, Gaussian Blur, Lens Blur, Motion Blur, Radial Blur, Shape Blur, Smart Blur, Surface Blur – in order of appearance in the Filter > Blur drop-down menu. (If you want to extend your software palette even further, explore onOne Software's FocalPoint.)
At first glance, the list is overwhelming. Where do you start? Get started with this quick visual survey of available options.

Controlling Blur FX With Photoshop
October 9, 2013 | Leave a Comment |
Photographers use blur (or bokeh) for a variety of reasons: to enhance space through depth of field; to add interesting visual artifacts; to simplify them; to change the quality of their expression. In the past, blur was controlled almost entirely through exposure; now it can also be controlled during post-processing, giving photographers an unprecedented array of options and ways to customize the look and feel of their images. Knowing what you can do, how far you can go, and when you can do it may change the way you shoot, one time, sometimes, or all the time.
There are many blur filters in Photoshop; Field Blur, Iris Blur, Tilt-Shift, Gaussian Blur, Lens Blur, Motion Blur, Radial Blur, Shape Blur, Smart Blur, Surface Blur (in order of appearance in the Filter: Blur drop down menu. The choices are extensive and it pays to familiarize yourself with your options by experimenting with them; you'll find you have an extraordinary set of options that you can modify and combine creatively. If you only use the filters Gaussian Blur and Lens Blur, you'll still have game-changing control at your fingertips, once you learn how to extend and modify them.
There are several important non-destructive strategies you can use to gain more control over all filter effects that will enable you to go further in your explorations and generate more sophisticated and compelling results Try one or all of the moves in this classic progression. Apply a filter to a duplicate layer and then modify its Opacity, Blend Mode, Blend If Sliders, and add a layer mask …

Advanced Color Adjustment – Blending Channels
July 15, 2013 | Leave a Comment |
Layer Styles
Blending channels is a powerful color adjustment strategy that can handle even the biggest challenges. It takes information from one channel and combines it with information from another. It's great for repairing clipping in one or even two but not three channels. Rather than simply enhancing existing tonal values, blending channels reshapes one channel's tonal structure with another's. Consequently, in most cases, blending channels calls for a substitution of information by percentage, not a wholesale replacement of the deficient channel. You usually blend channels from different versions of the same image because blending channels from different compositions produces a highly altered effect.
Blending channels is complex. It often produces additional unintended color effects that may require further correction, such as shifts in hue that aren't uniform across the tonal scale. Blending channels is neither the simplest nor the most direct path to color adjustment, but in certain situations (files that are exceptionally problematic), it may be the best path. The resulting benefits can be dramatic.
There are several ways to blend channels: Channel Mixer, Apply Image, Calculations and the most robust using channels as layers.
How do you do it? Duplicate a layer. Double click on the layer to activate Layer Styles (rasterize copies of Smart Objects to get this). Then check the channel you want to use, select a Blend Mode (typically Darken or Lighten and sometimes Multiply or Screen), adjust the Opacity, and use the Blend If sliders to constrain the effect or alternately a mask.

I just bought a used Remington 700 in .308. How do I tell if it's long action or short action?
Remington's web site offers no clues.

The length of the action is determined by the length of the case.
A .308 is a short case, so you've got a short action.
December 29, 2003, 06:51 PM
i thought the action being referred to on a model 700 would be the amount of movement required by the operator to load the next round....not the rounds size itself??
December 29, 2003, 06:59 PM
Bob Locke
In general you are mistaken, as for Remington I can not say for sure.
It is true you can't get a long case say 30-06 in short action but you can get short case ammo in long action say a .243 I personally owned a long action Savage 110 in .243 yet now they have short actions available.
December 29, 2003, 07:04 PM
i stand corrected....i did find on remingtons web site that the .308 is short action.....explain to me the difference between a short action load compared to a WSM load.
December 29, 2003, 07:46 PM
The differenct between a Winchester 308 and a Winchester Short Magnum ,in 308, is a few thousand PSI, with a velocity difference of about 400 fps* in some loads.
Evidently, the WSM is an attempt to put a Winchester 300 Magnum in a short action rifle*.
I don't know if the action of the WSM needs to be stronger then the normal action of Win. 308.
Perhaps our experts could add or correct this, Please!
* Lyman 48th addition Reloading Handbook
December 29, 2003, 10:15 PM
Long or Short does indeed refer to the stroke length of the bolt.
a short action such as a .223 or .308 can have a shorter stroke, than a long action for say a .300 win mag, then you have Magnum actions for .375 H&H and .458 Lott etc...
the shorter action means the fire arm itself can be slightly shorter as well, Think of a Rem mod 7 in .308 as compared to a Mod 700 in 30-06.
December 29, 2003, 10:23 PM
Thanks for all the help. I was able to finally find the answer on Remington's web site. I just did not ask the right questions before.
December 29, 2003, 11:39 PM
ok....i understand the long vs. short as in the stroke length....now tell me how the extra 400 fps is picked up from a smaller shell? different powder?
December 29, 2003, 11:40 PM
BTW im not trying to be a moron or a thorn in anybodies side here.....im just trying to broaden my horizon in modern rifles where it seems this short action stuff is relatively new or at least this past deer season is the first time ive really heard much talk about it.
December 29, 2003, 11:53 PM
Yes New propellent formulations are part of the answer, and the "improved "(the case has been blown out further and the shoulders are sharper) profile of the cartridges is the other part.
so a shorter length cartridge, can out perform a standard length round.
and they are a relatively new production item.
December 30, 2003, 12:36 AM
The new .270, 7mm and .300 WSM (Winchester Short Magnums) have very fat cartridges. So while the overall case length may be the same length as the short-action .308 cartridge, the powder capacity is much larger than a .308 Winchester cartridge. Also, a fatter case yeilds a more efficient powder burn, as the primer instantly ignites a greater surface area of powder, since the cartridge cross-section is larger in a WSM compared to a .308 cartridge.

On tours I often have been asked, "What is the defining quality of an Oxy student?" After three years of close observation of Occidental students in their natural habitat I have come the the conclusion that we are a busy bunch. No matter what a student's interests are they probably involved in half a dozen different organizations, taking challenging classes, working, and making time to go out and explore LA. I'm certainly no exception to the busy Oxy lifestyle, and this past week has been proof.

Official: Haiti drought causes 'extreme emergency'
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti -- A Haitian official said drought is causing an "extreme emergency" in the country's northeast.
Pierre Gary Mathieu of the government's National Coordination of Food Security said Tuesday that the eight-month-long drought in the region has destroyed bean, plantain and corn crops, as well as livestock.
He said it will take the area six months to recover.
The usually arid area has seen some rain lately, but not enough to replenish crops.
Government officials plan to distribute seeds to farmers and food to others.
Some schools currently have food but don't have water to cook. Other schools don't have any food or water.
