I'm glad I didn't offend anyone. In the "old days" my hobby was to draw and paint, and that taught me a little of light and perspective. However, my skills in Photoshop does not produce any masterpieces though.

Yes, I *really* like what you did with this image BillieJean! As you say Helen, there is now a subject; great observation! I am wondering though, there is something about the look of the woman that says she was inserted. What is it that gives it away, and what could be done to address that? I hope you don't mind my asking this Billie, as I really would like to understand what it is that makes it look that way to me, and how to lessen that effect. One thought that just occurred to me is the difference in sharpness; would blurring her a bit be helpful?? I hope BillieJean doesn't mind me answering. There are several things that are giveaways when you are composing. Light, sharpness/blurring, perspective, different textures, shadows and colors. Here there are a little bit of all. The one that is most striking to me is the perspective. If you look at the flowers to the left, they are to big compared to the person. A person that close to the camera would appear bigger. The light in the original picture seems to come from the right. and the person is lit from the left. The overall impression of the picture is that it has a painterly effect, and the lady is more natural. The head of the woman is nicely selected, but the hand and the sweater have a "halo", and that makes it look fake. BillieJean I love what you have done to the picture!! I know (and at least I do) that we are doing this for fun... so please bare with me, I just couldn't resist Tom's question.

I just got this. I didn't know the sender, nor the ohter recipients. Creepy! I googled the sender. It seems to be an elderly lady. Hope she's not in any trouble!

I think I'll wait a while. Creepy if you don't connect with your cameras! I'll read some more about the matter first. EDIT: Maybe the answer to the problem is to use the card reader?

I too have fiber optic My current speed downloading is 24,04 mb/s and uploading is 25,38 mb/s ping is 8 ms (whatever ping is). In a couple of weeks we get a new supplier with 60/60 mb/s The subscription is quite expensive, but we get tv and telephone as well (not mobile phone). Who uses telephone BTW I'm not sure what dial up is, but in the early days when we were in our cabin, we had a mobile modem, and the speed was in kB..something. EDIT: I googled Ping and see that it is the response time back and forth to the provider.

Charles, can you use this link? October issueI see that you are not the only one having trouble downloading the issue. This is what Mike Rodriguez writes: Mike says also: I'm not sure if it's solved yet, I don't have the time to follow up right now.
