I just noted that bird on Andres flickr. Thought it was a stick pixel at first and was flicking the screen trying to dislodge it! :laugh:

Took some more IR shots today but I'm not really getting what I want from this IS-1. Goni try my D40 + r72 filter tomorrow - weather permitting - see if there is a difference. Maybe try the IS-Pro again as well , it took a no bad IR shot last time I used it.

Anyway, I'll just post two images. If folk want to see the other IR shots they are on my flickr but you're all probably fed up with IR shots by now lol.

Well I don't know how much you know :p

:(

He'd have to escape the Child Cruelty folk first. Look at those poor flying toddlers.

lol

Seriously though they are good clean images.

I'm getting an Hoya R72 (?30) for my 52mm lenses on my D40 - not quite as deep IR will be acheived as the IS-1/IS-Pro but might put a different slant on the images - I will post when I get one.

Moonman - is that your gf or sister or I dunno?. Very photogenic and you DOF totally works in almost all of them. I notice though that she carries a DSLR too - she take any of you? Were they any good?

Moonman is a myth! he almost never gets captured by an enemy camera!

(hmmm would moonman cover his OWN wedding?!?)

Well he could do it with it with I wireless remote. Although I BET he will figure out a way

@andre: Damn that is one good pic! the sun just feels "yummy" if that makes any sense:wacko::

here's some from my sister's wedding, i took some photo's but wasn't 'the' photographer (not quite up to par yet)... i really need to get to grips with post processing though, as i think i messed a few of them up (although not permanently as they are in raw and only lightroom edits...).

@moonman - images are real good. Bokeh, bokeh, BOKEH! :laugh:

@houlty - quality wed photos. The one in front of the window is great. You use flash for the indoors and car shot?

Here are a couple I shot with the IS-Pro whilst on my bike this avo. Not hugely pleased with the yellow hues on the processed files but I screwed up my CWB prior to shooting and never noticed. Still, they look ok. Might get back to visible light shooting tomorrow (weather permitting) as I just got my ND8 - time for some silky water! Also, I running out of bad IR pun titles for these photos - seriously I'm scraping the barrel today like. :)

All shot with a manual nikkor 50 mm lens. Dunno if that had an impact on the colours or not - I don't usually shoot wtih it

Cheers

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
    • ive always been fascinated by old software this is an old video player for windows from apple
