Here’s another crack at promoting Reno to hopeless Bay Area drones.
I made this using a Canon 30D, set to high quality small jpgs and high speed burst. On this setting, you can shoot five frames a second for up to 110 shots. That’s ab…
Which color profile should I use for online photos?

Priva-ate Eyes [clap!]
This photo was tucked into my screen door when I returned home from having beers on Wolfy’s porch with Scrippeiro and The Boy. I don’t know who took it, but it makes me think the private investigator thing is real. Really!
