Yep think the substituting the baby with a chicken was brilliant!

Loved the baby emu video....the are like little racing chicks (even have the racing stripes) 

i drove up to Knoxville, Tn just to be able to enable Deb (cuz she needs more chickens to show) congrats on another great showing!  

My sister lives in Knoxville.
 
I have family in Cornersville & Nashville that I've not seen for 28 years. Had a great time visiting. Saw some beautiful countryside on the drive up and across middle TN. This was my third time being in TN. The last time was in high school and the time before that when I was born in Murfreesboro (then my family moved to Texas a couple weeks after)

looking forward to going again....this time it won't be another 28 years before I go back.
 
[COLOR=0000CD]I edited out a really embarrassing section of me yelling, "WHO LET THE ROOSTERS OUT?!" [/COLOR] :P
They have already grown so much. I really enjoyed the video. Keep the videos coming. I am living Vicariously through you. I don't think my hubby will ever let me get them.

Your little helper is darling! Love the way they followed him. Priceless !
 
so I climb under the house craw all the way across to change a dryer hose. Of course it is longer than the only size I could find. 8 feet

Dust collection hoses, for wood shops, come in longer lengths. That might work. They also have splices, is your dryer 4" or 6" diameter? You may also be able to use a piece of pvc to bridge the gap.

ETA. Of course if you can only find 8 foot length, it could be a building code thing.

That was a fun video to watch. I am still deciding whether or not to read all the pages, get to know some of you fine folks... Tough decision.... Well any way, thanks for the welcome!

I got my critiques today. I think I did as well, if not better than the others so I am happy with that.





Hi Mary. The light quality looks great for the subject. I would like to see it coming from much farther behind though so that you don't have nearly as much light on the fronts of the tomatillos. If the light were coming from 1:00(upper right corner of the frame) and then you placed a reflector at 7:00(lower left corner) to bounce back a little fill, this would have a much more dramatic look to it.
Also, if you can size you image to 800 pixels on the long edge it will make it easier to see more detail in them. They are all a bit small! Let me know if you need any help with sizing.






Beautiful subjects and the hard light is perfect for showing lots of texture and great for added contrast as well. I would definitely move the light source clockwise here( camera and subject rotated counter clockwise) which would help with the harsh highlight on the onion as well as solve the background issues. See the really dark vertical line back there? That will always create a distraction that pulls the eyes off of the subject(s) in any image.





Same thing with the light here. The quality is really nice but it needs to be moved farther around behind the subject to fix the glare issue. I would also avoid the tilted look as it's very difficult to make it work especially with the table in the scene. It makes it look like the subject is going to roll right out of the frame.
 
Loving all the pics and videos.

Thanks for the most excellent entertainment!

Congrats on all of the chicks....

... wishing I could have some chicks shipped from MO in three weeks... I'd PAY TOO!
