The below video is an homage to my beloved father (Norman Goldberg) who passed away on July 10th, from a long battle with Colon Cancer.
I urge anyone, that is reading this, to please make it a point to get your Colonoscopy Exam done, when you’re in your 50′s, and if Cancer is in your family to please get it done when you’re in your 40′s. I’ve recently had my exam done, and it was a painless experience.
We also taped part of the service for my Dad, that we had for him at the “Gerstenberg Center” in West Palm Beach, which is part of Hospice of Palm Beach County. Everyone that cared for my Dad here was amazing and I encourage donations in my Dads name “Norman Goldberg” rather then sending any cards, flowers or gifts.
The video of the service is on YouTube and best to watch this first, and than watch the below video.
I thank you all for looking and encourage your comments, and any stories that you’d like to share about my Dad below.
I was up early this morning on a little walkabout to Bluffers Park. It was slightly raining, but I had my faithful companions, my iPod, 1Ds MKIII, and of course when your up that early, you need Starbucks. All was good for a nice little walk. I only regret that I did not wear my hiking boots. That was a mistake, there were a few shots I could not get, because I did not want to ruin my new sneaks. Oh well, we’ll have to go back and “Trek” again.
All images were processed using Lightroom 3, and I have to say that it is way faster than the old version, I’m really loving this upgrade.
The following 3 images were shot using my faithful B&W 1000X nd filter, ranging from 1-2 min exposures, around F-8, ISO 100. This morning the sky was not as cooperative as I would have liked for this particular filter, but it still does a great job, of smoothing the water out.
Most of you know that I’m a huge fan of Lightroom. I’ve been using the Beta 3 of Lightroom for the past several months, and have been quite impressed. There are way to many new features for me to list here, so if you’d like to read more checkout Lightroom News . If any of you use lightroom, and you want the best free web gallery software out there, checkout Lightroom Gallery’s
I’ve been giving private tutoring lessons in Lightroom, and also computer training to those in need, in my spare time, mostly focusing on photography work-flow. If any of you are in the Toronto, GTA area, and would like to get in touch with me about these services please feel free to do so.
We took a little ride over to the John Street Roundhouse today, in downtown Toronto. If you’re into trains this is heaven. This was there grand opening weekend, for Doors Open Toronto. If you’ve never been then you need to check out this free event next year. The roundhouse will be open weekends, throughout the summer, and is located right next to the Steamwhistle Brewery. A few nice snaps from today, and what a beautiful day it was.
I’m currently down in Delray Beach Florida, visiting with family, and I had a bit of time this morning to play around with Aperture 3 (sorry PC users, this is for Mac fans only, download free trial here) which I’ve been meaning to do for a while now. Yesterday morning I went for a little nature walk at sunrise, at the Green Caye Nature Preserve in Boynton Beach Florida.
We’ll for all of you iPhone users out there, I found a really cool feature, that Aperture has, that Lightroom doesn’t. If you follow my blog posts, you know I’m a huge fan of a Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, but the new version of Aperture, really has some amazing new features. In any event, I decided to edit my shoot from yesterdays walkabout in Aperture. While I was in Green Caye, I had popped out my iPhone, when I first got there, and took one shot of the sunrise, when I walked in there. Did you know that whenever you take a photo with your iPhone, that the photo is instantly geotagged, with satellite information, based on your GPS coordinates. It does not matter what cellphone provider you use, or even if you have an internet connection.
You can select your photos in Aperture, and than you can choose a corresponding image on your iPhone, based on the location you shot the images, and tag all of the images with the satellite information. I’ve included 2 images below as an example. The first one is the screen grab of the Satellite info, that Aperture 3 gives you, and the 2nd one is just one of the images of a black bird that I photographed while in Green Caye.
I think this is a pretty cool new feature of Aperture 3, that I may find many uses for when shooting stock photography, and eliminates the need for carrying around a geotagging device for your photos. Hmm am I ready to switch to Aperture yet? Well I’m not sure, but stay tuned, as I continue to use it, and find out what other strong features it has.
Gary, since you have an iPhone and are interested in geotagging your photos, take a look at my GeoLogTag iPhone app. It turns your iPhone into a GPS data logger while you’re shooting and afterwards it geotags the photos on your Mac over WiFi.
