comment How can I shoot in a studio at the widest apertures?
I use an ND filter with the same lens (f1.4 - 2.2) when outdoors all the time. Works pretty well for me. Nice shot BTW!

comment Why did “pure” photography displace pictoralism so completely?
Eloquent! Do you have a blog? And thanks you for mentioning Jamie Baldridge and John Paul Caponigro. I had no idea what I was missing.

comment How can I fire a single canon 430ex flash remotely from a Canon 6D camera?
Thanks for your answer Michael! Good point. I did some research last night and "getting the flash off camera while still retaining TTL capability" might be important for a flash newbie like myself. I am also considering strobes now but I will start off simple - transmitter or a cable or both.

Thanks for this awesome answer! The hardware is not as expensive either. I will definitely get that book too.

comment How can I fire a single canon 430ex flash remotely from a Canon 6D camera?
True, the low-light capabilities in this camera is amazing. But I do want to try better pics of my kids and family. Adding drama with a side light, experimenting, etc. Bouncing the flash off the walls and the ceiling doesn't do it.

comment Why is this aerial picture of an airplane in flight not blurry?
This is a 2013 Bluesky image - I am pretty sure Bluesky only offers aerial photography. You might have better luck getting some answers on GIS SE

comment What workflow order makes sense with Lightroom 4 and Nik Software?
I understand this. There is a workflow order to using NIK plugins in LR. In short - definitely Dfine 2nd last and Raw Pre-Sharpener last. See my answer for my NIK-LR workflow.

comment How can photos printed on foamcore be prevented from warping?
Like the commandment! What is an archival quality framing / proper framing? I know archival inks/paper combo can last 150+ years (so they say) but how should such photo be framed? No matter what i do, if it is not glued to a foam board or similar the photo always buckles and wrinkles.

comment How do I explain that post-processing is an important step in producing good photos?
Photoshop and post processing aside, did they like the result?

comment How to shoot stars much bigger without trails?
That's what I thought when I saw the photo - a tracking mount of some kind. Looks like a long exposure but no trails at all. Either that or very high ISO and unusually ideal conditions + really wide aperture f1.2?

comment How would one use filters with the “bulb”-like shape front element lenses?
The photos are amazing and the lens rocks too! Out of my league for now. I will be getting a full frame and when I end up getting the 14mm Samyyang I will buy this kit.

comment Are there any tripods specially designed for sub-zero temperatures?
Right, you were the one who recognized Neskantaga was on Attawapiskat. Wish I could get out there again. Thanks for the suggestion - really does look good. I might just have to save up for one of these.

Thanks! Fat tube at the bottom - sounds ideal for snow and sand.
