Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I've got Friday off work too, so that'll help.

Yep, though not without a fair bit of hassle in ordering it, due to repeatedly being flagged as fraud (even after twice phoning up and being told it was cleared to submit again).

This was basically a grab shot - I was in the process of planning a shot of the trees (and hoping a person wouldn't take too long to walk out of sight) when the sun unexpectedly and briefly said hello, so I just took it. Didn't get time to pick the best aperture or focal point and I had to clone out...

Well Sunday was a failure for me. :( I woke up later than planned, and was greeted with a completely flat grey sky, so that limited options - plus I needed to do shopping before closing time so decided I best find something around town. I was thinking I might be able to use the technique of getting ...

I dunno what I'll be shooting yet, but I will definitely post the final image, the as-captured shot, and any deliberate choices/changes I made. If there's a story to include then I will (but I suspect it'll mostly be "I wandered about until I saw this"). Beyond that will be a question of t...

That's a general thing that works on any webpage* - whenever you see a # (hash) in a URL, everything that comes after is the...

Was trying to work it out, but still not sure why it bothers me. (It does, just can't determine the reason.) To add the height, expand the canvas size with anchor set to the bottom, then it's basically a question of cloning in bits of wall - Content Aware Fill might be ok here, or another option is ...
