I've put a few roff snapshots on my home server at http://66.156.89.242/roff

They are not organized in any way and I can't vouch for the reliability of the
server, but feel free to have a look if you're curious what some of the folks
look like.

I really like the Grand Teton photo's. I think a few of them could be
lightened up a bit though. Nice job.

Thanks. You may be right about the lightening, but they look about as bright
on my monitor as I remember it being when I took them. I just got a new flat
screen that has sRGB mode and am still going back and playing with some of the
pictures I have taken.

They look fine to me too. The two that are darker just look like they
were taken on a heavily overcast day, which I'm guessing they were.

Charlie,

Hope you're not offended by my comments. Here's what I did with 2 of
your shots:

1. http://www.njflyfishing.com/DSC_112720small1.jpg
2. http://www.njflyfishing.com/DSC_1197.jpg

I'll remove them from my host as soon as you indicate you've
downloaded them.

What I've done to them was use photoshop to lighten up the levels a
little bit. Notice the photo with the blue sky. Much more vivid now
than before. I've done the same with the other photo but to make the
other photo stick out a bit more, I'd have to do more work on it
because of the clouds. They get very distorted when you make the
levels too high. The 1st photo still needs some work though. The
foreground could be made a bit more vibrant.

Anyhow, the reason I've bothered with your photo's is because I really
do enjoy them. The scenary is just breathtaking. Thanks for posting.

You might have gone a bit too light on them. I'd bet there was a
cloud passing over that was blocking sunlight and when the lightening
up happened, some of the values went too far. Pretty, but somehow a
bit darker, with less in highlights might work better. On looking at
them side by side (the beaver pond one), the sky doesn't look the way
I remember western sky. More like a bright day here in the somewhat
polluted heartland.

I'm not offended at all. It may be a 'monitor' thing, though, since both of
yours look a little too light on mine. I did use Photoshop on mine to match
what I recall of the lighting at the time I took them. In the 1st one the
lighting really was kind of gray, http://66.156.89.242/Web-DSC_1125.jpg is of
the same area when the sun peeked through.

Thanks for taking the time to adjust the pictures. I appreciate your comments
and critiques, they can only help me take better pictures.

That is beautiful! Yeah, I think you're right about the monitor
thing. I have a few different monitors over here and the photo's look
somewhat different on each of them. I must admit though, your web-DSC
1125 is gorgeous!!!! Keep up the great work!
