Here ya go! Please enjoy your coma! I've since added a second

match the 1075 and and added a pair of Snell J3's for listing to
certain
types
of non orechestral classical recordings. I removed the Conrad

which
is now in the bedroom. The TV is high def of course. Watching and

Purple AND mauve are both a bit queer!

Simple and Jon are both a bit fond of purple/mauve!

So, you're admitting Horass was your last boyfriend?

You call this a good pic? ....
http://members.aol.com/bobsprit/images/room1.jpg

Were you trying to achieve the dark look?
As I can not see your famous TV system?

This is with available light and no flash. With the black curtains do you
realize what I would have to do to get them lit correctly, while

preserving the
lighting scheme.
Let's teach you a few things!
Here's a pic of an initial trial setup for the system right after the new
carpet was down. The curtains arent' even hung properly yet.
http://members.aol.com/bobsprit/images/rtheatre.jpg
Remote flash kinda stark, eh? It's possible to bounce the flash or card

it, of
course, but the pics are fine. They were both posted together. The "dark"
version is great at full resolution of 5 MP taken with the C50. AOL's easy
designer doesn't help.
Are you learning yet?
With large format camera, such an 8X10, i'd have made a double exposure by
slipping the sheet..not that you know what that means!

Which camera has no built in flash?
Do you have a clue as to what you're talking about?

Then you should have exposed for the gear and eliminated the curtains from
the equation. Ever heard of the zone system? Spot metering? How about
looking at the image in the camera's screen, deciding it's too dark, and
telling the camera to open up a stop or two?

Why take one crap pciture and leave it at that, especially when the
wonderful world of digital affords one the ability to review instantly and
get it better next time - a few scant seconds later?


Let's teach you a few things!


Uh-huh.

Maybe so, but if the purpose is to show off the gear, then there's little
point in going for artistic nonsense that shows nothing other than a few
vague boxes.



It's possible to bounce the flash or
card it, of course, but the pics are fine. They were both posted
together. The "dark" version is great at full resolution of 5 MP
taken with the C50.


But useless at the webcam res that you post them in. Which begs the
question, why post a crap picture?


AOL's easy designer doesn't help.


What effect did this have?

Are you?

Why would you make a double exposure? Aside from that, since an 8x10 uses
sheet film, one would expect that the shutter mechanism doesn't have an
'expose-once' lock, like you'd find on a 35mm - so what's the point in
messing about with the dark slide? Surely that will be more likely to induce
camera shake than a cable release.

Why would you make a double exposure?

Oh boy. You know nothing about still work. The photo was taken to show the
lighting as is, not the gear, which is clear and bright in the second photo.
Half slides on an 8x10 cassette is standard, exposing twice, then dodging with
the enlarger.
You clearly never learned how a camera works or worked in a darkroom.
