Nice write up Steve. I feel like I was right there with you.

I'll never see this in Boston. Sigh.

Re: Cameras & Photography

Read good things about the Sigma cameras, but never used one. The new line of Sigmas - the DPMerrills - are really something special. They have a proprietary sensor technology called Foveon. It uses separate layers for the red-green-blue channels whereas the standard industry technology shares a si...

Re: Cameras & Photography

Hey Steve, I hope you don't mind me borrowing your picture. I wanted to see how much room the iPhone pic left for fiddling. I downloaded your jpeg and put it through Lightroom. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7307/10144860635_c0e91e43ab_b.jpg There is more data in this file - especially in the highlig...

Re: Cameras & Photography

Scott & Steve, Thanks. I give most of the credit to the camera. This is from the Sigma #2. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81u50CFNnhL._SL1500_.jpg I call it my brick. I also have a #3. To really get a sense of how good this camera is you need to see the pictures at full resolution: I'm no...

This has the Uri Caine stamp all over it, really nice work. I also enjoyed his duet with Han Bennink.

And Theo Bleckmann is everywhere this year...gets my vote for male vocalist 2013.

Re: iOS 7

I like the panorama feature added to the camera. It does a great job exposing for changing light. It's a real fun feature but not print worthy.

Co-Co on burnt grass. There was not much rain this summer in Boston and my backyard grass is gone. I took this a few days ago and just converted it to B&W tonight. It's from the Sigma camera.

No, I've never been there. I checked out the website and it looks like an amazing place. A home built for a Vanderbilt.
