Is there any room for another lazy ass here? Mind you a mid-term noob lazy ass. LOL
Nice bushes you have there GMT. You must have a decent camera to take pics like that!
I'm gonna use the easy chair for this one.

Thanks Ton, Black and white are the best solution when the white balance isn't quite right in the original photos, or a good plan B. Whenever you see b/w pics, you know I screwed em up again lol. I actually like a nice b/w pic, I'll be doing quite a lot of them in here.
Thanks Core, yeah I'm pretty comfy with this cam now, of course a copy of photoshop helps alot.
Hi Corndog, well don't expect pics of the best plants I've grown, these are starved of sufficient compost, (I hate going to buy garden compost in mid winter). I'm not demonstrating how to produce the biggest/best buds possible, I'm demonstrating the difference in the best buds possible and what happens when you dont bother with all the tips and tricks. The point being, that for a newb to start growing simply and producing themselves some tastey smoke, is far simpler than you would believe reading some threads. The diffs are noticable, which is why some put so much work in, but they aren't the be all and end all. More importantly, using the tips and tricks without understanding why, will get you a worse crop than not using them at all.

Hiya GMT
Sniff sniff - something smells marvelous in here... Ahhh man, been missing your humour! Now you're giving away your photo tricks - and here I thought you were getting back to Ansel Adams Basics
How are you getting such good depth of field in your shots? Can you control aperture with your Olympus?
So true - oftentimes more => less My experience too... -MGJ

Hey Dime, back to churning the butter hey. Unfortunately, my week included a vissit to the dentist, but appart from that, it's coasting along.
Hey MGJ, lol, I do actually love nice b/w shots, not all of em are due to errors. I did a lot of searching on Ansel after you and Pack'n intro'd me to the pics, can't beat that style. Yeah my olympus has all of the controls you could wish for, and most I'll never use, but I do shoot in full manual mode, so iso, speed, focus type, metering type and most importantly ap control are mine. sadly I'm very limited in range, typically from 4 to 8 depending on lighting it sometimes comes down to 2.8. For macro shots I tend to use the F8, I'd use F22 if I had it. Sometimes I trade close detail for depth by shooting from an extra inch or two away. The higher the F# and the further away from the subject the greater the depth of focus, but it makes the pic appear flatter, so it's all a trade. Not that you need any coaching on photos, I've read your threads remember.
