The Coffee House

[Designer]

I'm wondering if there's some way to get more than just a couple of tablespoons in there. I'll have to think about that, sometime when I don't have a headache.

Try adding some dry instant coffee.

How's this?


There's still a band along the bottom (which might actually just be the snow - it wasn't flat and part of the coloring might just be picking up on the variations in the level of the snow?) and I see a band on the right of the frame as well. This camera vignettes a bit, too.

Crap, I'm totally procrastinating. I have to go brave the roads now...

In other news...

I will probably start a thread to show a few of my Arizona pictures, but I need to finish scanning and then go in and clean up the dust off of the ones that are worth viewing. (And that's just the color! I still have to develop my black and white films.) There is one that I've done so far to post on a weekend thread we always have on another forum, and I thought I'd also share it here especially for my Coffee House peeps, before I start the other thread.

This was on New Year's Eve, and yes, it really was the desert:

That is very beautiful ... you gots some odd colorations in the snow below the bridge ... but that image has much more character than most digital.

Thanks!

That might work, but I'm more inclined to think along the lines Ken mentioned, a really strong espresso or something along that line. I hadn't thought about the potential of neutralizing the baking soda though. Might be time to grab some brownie mixes, do a little Google searching and see what happens!

i liked your set the other day

How's this?

It is better, but not quite right. I adjusted the WB a bit, and a few other tweaks (small adjustments).

I don't know what could cause the dark band at the bottom.

Thanks, bribrius! Gotta find time to get some more posted, but I think the first two days were the best shots, since the weather turned on me and I didn't have much light to work with for the next few days.

BEWARE THE WRATH OF LEONORE or something like that.

Indeed!

(For the record, I'm fine with someone offering to make minor tweaks on a case-to-case basis. But don't tell anyone else - I've get a reputation to uphold, after all )

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. I had a wonderful dinner at Dominics at Oceanside Harbor last night, chicken carciofini and a Fez Parker riesling. I took a few snaps of the sunset and the pier. 7:00 a.m. and 52F right now ... supposed to hit the low 70's. Isn't refreeze and unthaw the same thing? If thaw is to go from from frozen to unfrozen ... then unthaw is to go from unfrozen to frozen ... no wait ... unfrozen is thaw ... so unthaw is frozen ... no wait ... thaw is to frozen what unthaw is to unfrozen ... or is unthaw to unfrozen what thaw is to frozen ... no wait ...

What bothers me is that "slow up" and "slow down" mean the same thing. Likewise, "burn up" and "burn down". Could have something to do with relativity.

I wonder what happens if you "slow up" the process of "unthawing?"

Sorta like odds ... Slim Chance is similar to Fat Chance.

But I understand "fat chance" as being sarcastic.

flammable/inflammable - or did someone bring that up already?
