*OFFICIAL* Snapshot of the Day (one image per post please) #1

there's a program called Gimp that's free (or at least it used to be)

I tryed it for a couple of days until I found some other programs. I can't really speak for how much control it has over RAW files or anything as I didn't really know what I was doing back then.

but might be worth testing out.

Ill do a not so legal method. I've heard of gimp but Im trying to get light box cause the RAW capability is sweet.

Might still be able to squeak in an order for LR3 at $79.

Also if you are a 'student' there's the full Photoshop CS5 for $199. Although, less than legal sources are far cheaper, I like knowing I have a legit copy that can run updates without fear of the internet police showing up.

one reason being in canada is nice. there isn,t much they can do here. but as a result, we have badwidth usage limits here. how much you pay determines speed and maximum. if we go over the limit, we get charged for each extra gigabyte.

win some and lose some...

^^^^Nice.

Wrong thread, but since the conversation is here:

Adobe LR3 for $70. PS Elements, too.

Ok, unedited, but it's time to start getting horizons straight. You're only a degree or so off, but it shows both in the background and that smoke pot or whatever it is in the foreground.

I like the composition and colors.

Why not be legal? Stealing would not be a great way to start a photography "career", or anything in life, for that matter.

Colorful birds, aren't they. Nice pic, Dave. Very sharp.

dcstep · 02-15-2012, 10:05 AM

Thanks Mark. Yes, they are incredibly colorful and amazingly hard to shoot because they're almost always partly hidden in the grasses or flying very fast and low.

Leaning to the right.

Is this a test?

It's an election year. One election year Boston leans left, the next it leans right.
