Hi Paul,

It surprises me how many people come here to read my "ancient" articles on the Canon SX50 HS. They must tell their on-line friends as well, because a number of times after a hit, there will be 6-10 more within a week from around the world. I am thrilled, of course, that people still find them so useful, and thrilled that you enjoyed them as well.

The Canon SX50 HS was and still is a very capable, versatile and fun camera to use, and I do take it out from time to time just to play. I hope you have fun with your awakened urge to play.

Eddie you are absolutely wonderful and without words your vision is clear. And I truly appreciate you sharing it all with me. Feel humbled because sharing your own observations and capturing it is a very personal thing. I shared your link on Facebook and spoke to my neighbor who will be potentially traveling up there soon with her grandkids. I will be there again in the coming weeks and will contact you!

Thanks Jim, for looking in on my website and for signing my Guestbook.

The Canon SX50 is a fun and versatile little camera that can produce wonderful results. I enjoy sharing images and techniques with other members and worldwide readers on DPR. The camera does take practice and hopefully relating my experience will help others to attain the best results they can with it.

Thanks again,
Ed

Hi Ed:

Just a short note to say hi and that I very much enjoy your experience and pointers using the SX50HS. I'm frequently on the DP Review website's Canon PowerShot Forum under the name "Jim". Your thorough explanations of the ins and outs when using the SX50HS are very much appreciated by me as well as by many of us who also use this camera. Thank you!

Best regards,

Jim Leslie

Hi Evan. Creating the image you mentioned in the Walkway Over The Hudson gallery (Scenic Hudson Valley NY) was a fun exercise. It's an attempt to capture a three dimensional 360° view from a single spot on the Walkway and creatively project it into a two dimensional viewing space. One of the 190° River panorama images was flipped over and spliced Walkway edge to Walkway edge below the other. The combined image was then flipped 90° to place the western mountains on the top. Photoshop CC's lens correction tools were then applied exactly opposite to their intended purpose. Instead of correcting for barrel/pincushion anomalies, I manually extended and celebrated them out to a rough circle. Manually using the x/y axis resizing tool further compressed the circular effect. The two prior images of people walking east and west from the same central point as the panoramas were then manually resized to fit in the middle of the new composition and precisely layered. After a little cleanup and balancing of the water tones on both sides of the Walkway, the title was added and the creation was complete. Sometimes, you just have to have a little fun.

Hope you had a successful search today for snow in your upper "neighborhood". I'll be checking your website soon to see the results.

Hi Ed, thought I would drop in and take a look at your walkway pics. I'm glad I did as they are very enjoyable viewing. That last one is very interesting, it's a bit hard for me to wrap my mind around this early in the morning. I'll get with you later to find out how you accomplished that.

I'm on my way up to the mountain this morning, we got some snow up there so I thought I would get out and see if I could find some photos to take. I have been very busy around the house and have not been able to get out and take pics for the past few weeks. Still trying to catch up on PP from my annual moose rut expedition.

Hi Trevor and welcome to my Galleries. I really appreciate the time you spent visiting so many galleries and am glad you enjoyed the light that brought out the chill in all that ice. It was very cold that day.
Come back soon. My latest new work is always listed in Recently Added Images under the Portfolio Menu.
Thanks again,
Ed
