Thanks.

Nothing that fancy, Olympus E500 but it’s on its last legs. It fell out the truck yesterday for the umpteenth time and the body is toast and the lens hardly zooms anymore without forcing it.

I’d love a nice Cannon but have to live with this thing a while longer till the money fairly pays a visit ;)

Hey guys!!

Nice pics!!! :) We took a million with my dinky cell phone, however some are not so bad.. Sorry we missed you on the trails out!! We ended up taking Pearl Pass to Aspen. It's 2 times as scary and a about a million times more beautiful than schofield was! We will have to run this again!! WAY MORE FUN!

Any it was great to see you guys.. I'll post up some pics of the run as well..

Wow, great pics! So when you say e500 are you talking about the Evolt 500 digital... i don't ever get pictures as clear. Tell your secrets, man!

[RotorHead]

Yup, you got some serious camera skills Alec. I doesn't hurt that you live in the most beautiful state. Keep 'em coming. :beer:

Take them RAW and clean them up (if they need it) with photoshop ;)

[Alec W]

I put the bigger pics in a zip file @ http://www.myprojectjk.com/resources/jko/fall.zip for those that asked for them.

Thanks for the nice comments.

I don't understand what photoshop tool you used to make those pictures better Alec. Maybe you could explain? Also what Cannon model are you partial to for the money? I may be looking to upgrade soon and sell my Kodak ES-P850.

[Alec W]

I used Photoshop a metaphor.

I uses a freebee Microsoft program (Windows Live Photo Gallery) to manage my pics and make minor fixes. Mostly all I do is use tags to keep track of them, crop them, use the detail tool to sharpen them a little or add a little saturation to bring out colors.

Purists would call that cheating but it’s not like I’m trying to make any money out of this :thefinger:

[RiggerMike]

I'm just going to say wow. :beer:

A bit less water running through there now than when I was up there first of July! (Sorry for the crappy pic. Resized it down too far, and I suck at taking pics!)

Great Pictures! Wish I could have joined you. Maybe next time!

Wow, that’s a lot more water. Now I understand some posts on Colo4x4 where people said you can’t actually get to the powerhouse. We could have easily just walked through the 10” of water last weekend.
