Otherwise, my heart is indeed in support of preserving a portion of the wall as a monument / memorial - and the east side gallery is the best place to do it. <br /><br />Here's hoping that they realize that in this case, "tearing down the wall" is not a benefit.Rosehttp://blog.phoenixrosedesign.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161193692812797725.post-56372503729069202152012-12-19T06:32:45.170-08:002012-12-19T06:32:45.170-08:00Sounds like a collection worth studying, if only t...Sounds like a collection worth studying, if only to celebrate an iconic figure, who, as you say, was able to "capture legends in repose."<br /><br />Thanks for the informative post!Laurel-Rain Snowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101090217639410913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161193692812797725.post-21531798867143147192012-09-28T00:25:57.153-07:002012-09-28T00:25:57.153-07:00That's quite a big list to have lil ole me on ...That's quite a big list to have lil ole me on it, but thanks! ;)Craig Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644114217515103149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161193692812797725.post-2000753347648077342012-09-27T15:01:05.080-07:002012-09-27T15:01:05.080-07:00You rock!

That one will expire soon; it is now on 'redirect' mode to my new site, craigrobinsonphotographer.com. The new site is completely designed, tweaked and coded by me, completely without anything to do with Microsoft. My new site is located on a new web hosting service. I plan to keep my old domain names if they ever get around to transferring my domains to the new host. It's taking bloody AGES.

I can make a superior image in my camera at the time of shooting (a basic concept which eludes many photographers who rely on Photoshop to save them) AND I can make any adjustments in Photoshop which may be needed--all in jpg fine/high quality (the largest jpg setting before the ludicrously large RAW kicks in). I am also a veteran of the analog darkroom. God DAMN I hated the stench of the chemicals and the grain of the film (except TRI-X. GREAT grain). Not to mention the environmental impact (I'm a native Californian Tree Hugger).<br /><br />But when all is said and done, it's still comparing apples to oranges. I like California oranges and you like RAW apples. There's nothing wrong with personal taste.<br /><br />BTW: Why can't you process jpg files in Photoshop? I do it all the time and the results are fabulous!Craig Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644114217515103149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161193692812797725.post-7961501194315416602010-10-05T09:50:49.651-07:002010-10-05T09:50:49.651-07:00Well, if you do not do process your images, I gues...Well, if you do not do process your images, I guess shooting JPG is perfect for you.

However, it's just not so easy to find a good photographer with a reasonable price. We are deeply grateful of Craig's professional help, which makes our dream come true with amazing effects! Despite the very short notice, Craig provided perfect service. He is trust-worthy, highly experienced and open-minded, which makes it easy to communicate with him. We both felt comfortable and had much fun while shooting, then got exactly what we had hoped for. We are glad that our families and friends are all pleased with the photos.

It was all decided in the last minute, nevertheless, you were very sucessful in shooting various great photos. We especially liked the documentary touch which by showing as a slide show you can really feel and follow what was happening there. As it was a small family wedding, we were able to later on share the atomosphere of the wedding day with our friends. <br />Craig provides the original photos in data, so now we are looking forward to create a wedding album over Mac.<br /><br />Thanks again Craig!<br /><br />Yuka and KarstenYuka and Karstennoreply@blogger.com
