It's an ease way between my property and the next. I looked it up and that's what an alley is. #FlickrFridays #Alley.
I have three images of this Yellow Rumped Warbler ... one of which you will never see. Not because I don't want you to see it. I do. I really do! But I have no way of showing it to you unless you come visit me and I boot up my computer and show it to you.
Oh, I uploaded it alright. But this is what Flickr does to it! Please don't say it's a nice image ... because it just isn't!
If you want to see the best approximation of what came out of my camera and is on my computer look at the next image. I got it by putting the photo in Photoshop Elements and turning the Midtone Contrast way down and the Brightness up. After that, I'd say it's about a 50%- 60% approximation of what the photo actually looks like.
So, here's some what I'd like you to look at:
1. No detail in the cheek feathers to the left of the eye.
2. No detail in the beak.
3. Beak almost disappears in the dark feathers surrounding it.
4. No eye detail.
5. Hardly any detail in the bird's claws.
6. Very dark shadow on the bottom of the tree branch.
7. End of the bird's claws almost disappear in that shadow.
8. Leg is almost lost in the shadow,
9. The lower white breast feathers are dark ... should be lighter.
10. And, worst of all ... just look at the dark breast feathers, those between the yellow feathers and the white. The tips of those feathers are white and form concentric arcs all the way down. But you can't see that! It's like someone has taken a paint brush, dipped it in black paint, and smeared it all over those black feathers, those of the cheek feathers, and the beak ... practically eliminating any detail! Detail that was there, I can definitely assure you!
What is going on? Is someone at Flickr is turning the contrast of uploads way up? That's how I managed to take my perfectly good image and turn it into a piece of crap like this ... I cranked the contrast up. But if Flickr is doing that, why? Because someone there thinks uploaded images will look better with the contrast jacked up? When I became a member here nine years ago, I had a 4 Mega Pixel Kodak CX7430. Images uploaded from that little point-and-shoot were better looking on Flickr than I'm getting now ... relatively speaking.
Here's a question for whoever's responsible for this stuff at Flickr: Why doesn't a photograph that comes out of my Nikon D810 and transfers to my computer without any problems not upload to Flickr and look exactly the same when it gets there?
Flickr, please stop messing with the uploads!
Mấy bạn ơi! Mình up hình lên flickr để lưu trữ hình ảnh của mình thôi chứ ko có mục đích là sẽ chơi thường xuyên như Facebook. Các bạn thấy mình up hình, các bạn Like và comment rất là dễ thương thì mình rất cám ơn nhé. Còn 1 số bạn ko biết từ chỗ nào chui ra, xem hình mình xong thì soi mói cái này cái kia thì miễn bàn nha. Mặc dù mình ít chơi thật! Nhưng delete là thẳng tay. Cứ lâu lâu vô acc của mình thì thấy có vài đứa ba trợn. Ah còn nữa! Mình ghét đi Spam mấy cái Quảng cáo lắm. Flickr là để up hình chứ ko phải cái chợ buôn :) Mấy bạn đừng buồn! Mình có sao thì nói vậy, đàng hoàng với mình thì mình tử tế đáp trả. Còn chợ búa thì đi chỗ khác chơi, dơ Flickr của mình lắm :)

Gracias a Flickr y no precisamente por los nuevos cambios, uno puede conocer a grandes personas virtualmente, y lo mejor de todo es que con el tiempo se conocén personalmente. Asi fue el caso con estos dos grandes amigos, ya los conocia de otra ocasión, pero esta foto se debe a un descuido de ellos dos.
Ya han sido varias veces las que he tenido ocasión de compartir jornadas fotográficas con mi buena amiga Mari José y en un par de ocasiones con mi buen amigo Manuel, sin duda jornadas para compartir, disfrutar, conversar y admirar a todo el serpentario presente aquí en flickr, ya sean de España o de la otra parte del charco, siempre presentes en esos dias.
Ya son muchos los buenos amigos que he hecho, y aún lo serán más cuando vaya conociendo al resto de personas con la que tengo buena amistad, de momento, virtualmente.
No me quiero olvidar del resto de personas que estuvierón en este dia, Diego (darl57), Tony (Tony RS), Esther, Carol, Curro (Fran AGF) y las peques Africa y Betty.

I made a blunder the other day. I have spilled noodles on the keyboard which I used habitually more than 20 years carelessly. Because it was the already difficult situation to purchase this keyboard again, I repaired this.
On May 24, 2012 in my office of Ogikubo.

ぼくはとんでもない大失敗しました。20年以上愛用しているキーボードに、カップヌードルをうっかりたっぷりこぼしてしまったのです。 このキーボードをふたたび手に入れることは既に困難な状況なので、ぼくはこれを分解して修理することにしました。

strobist info: two sb-600's on either side of Ramsey, fired by the ultra-lame commander mode on my nikon d700.
both sb-600's had shoot-through umbrellas.
shot with nikon d700, and 24mm f/2.8 shot at f/5.6 and 1/50 and ISO 200.
entire shoot, from when i started setting up my lights, to finish, took 10 minutes, if even that long. i hate being rushed.
i really need to get some alienbees and radiopoppers...this setup just isnt' cutting it for me anymore.
you can see more of my work at my website.
you're looking at it already...give me 30 seconds and tell me what you think in a comment, please; comments AND critiques are greatly appreciated.
thanks!
As a symbolic mark against the proposed changes due to be made by Flickr in the near future, which will reduce/remove our ability to comment and hear the story behind the images....
If I wanted to go to Instagram I would have ...I just don't feel the need to do flucking selfies every flucking day ... this used to be a site for professionals and amateurs who wanted to showcase their stuff... and to learn from others ... all I'm learning now is patience ...and that is growing real flucking thin.
A water droplet on a feather with the Flickr logo reflected in it. I flipped the logo so that it would read correctly in the drop. I had to do a bit of color correction because the blue of the logo threw everything off. The scene was entirely lit by the logo on my monitor. I had to use long exposure so there's a lot of noise.
As I was processing the photo, I realized that the feather is a actually a feather from a flicker!
I know, it's the day before, but surely, somewhere in the world, it's the 31st already.
Happy Halloween, everybody!

Mir reichts! Yahoo macht aus der sozialen Netzgemeinschaft (online community) Flickr - in der Fotos gezeigt und diskutiert, oder auch persönliche Freundschaften geschlossen werden - eine Werbeplattform. Die Anwenderoberfläche wird entprechend für zukünftige Werbekunden optimiert, darunter aber leidet die Benutzerfreundlichkeit und auch das Sozialleben (wenn z.B. Kommentare gekürzt werden). :-(

The Manoel Theatre is a theatre and important performing arts venue in Malta. The theatre is often referred to as simply "The Manoel", and is named after Grand Master of the Order of the Knights Hospitaller, Fra António Manoel de Vilhena, who ordered its construction in 1731. The theatre is reputed to be Europe's third-oldest working theatre (older than the San Carlo in Naples), and the oldest theatre still in operation in the Commonwealth of Nations.
The theatre is located on Old Theatre Street in Valletta. It considers itself as the country's national theatre and the home of Malta Philharmonic Orchestra. Originally called the Teatro Pubblico, its name was changed to Teatro Reale, or Theatre Royal, in 1812, and renamed Manoel Theatre in 1866. The first play to be performed was Maffei's Merope.
The theatre is a small, 623 seat venue, with an oval-shaped auditorium, three tiers of boxes constructed entirely of wood, decorated with gold leaf, and a pale blue trompe-l'oeil ceiling that resembles a round cupola. The building is a Grade 1 listed building as noted by Malta's Superintendence of Cultural Heritage, and is also scheduled by the Malta Environment and Planning Authority (MEPA).
