that's a great picture!

Will that snow doughnut fit on a 16" rim and keep a bead? :) I didn't mean to say hwy 20 went across Diablo Dam, but that you take a quick side trip to drive across it. At least you used to be able to drive across it, can't you now?

If you're coming through the North and hitting Yellowstone, you might as well hit Glacier National Park if you want some hiking, then on over to Washington. Some things to 'see' in our fine state: Grand Coulee Dam Mt Rainier National Park North Cascades National Park Olympic National Park...

Man, that set of photos was mostly border crossings! Looks like they got use of the printer a lot. I can't wait to hear the stories to go with the photos. Segment 3 of Costa Rica (more flowers, less borders) is also available

That's actually a really valid point.

wasn't that in the set of pictures from the Earthroamer guys current trip south? I know I've seen a truck a lot like that from the front some place on the net recently. ===== EDIT, here it is Are those french plates? Looking at the Earthroamer site, that picture was taken just before they...

I agree, more ISO and less f-stop. Newer Canons are really great up to ISO 800 now and even 1600 can be cleaned well. For example, the attached photo doesn't show any grain at this size and I didn't clean it. It was shot at ISO800 in semi dark conditions. Likewise, I also had to open the...

I've got a couple of questions. That looks to be 4' or so long, are the drawers full length? And if so, what kind of slides did you use? And how much weight can they hold? Can you tell I intend to do the same thing but in a Rover? :)

You might have already seen this, but if not.... Microsoft has a Photo Info tool out that adds a menu item when you right click on a photo. http://www.microsoft.com/wind... It's pretty handy for quick stuff and lets you add certain EXIF info, like title and description and keywords and such...

but will that filter out bacteria and viri? I'm not so concerned about least expense as I am about getting sick 6000 miles from home.

This link should help explain ideas http://www.xantrex.com/web/id/25/learn.asp As for how they tell, it's usally on a net meter basis. In otherwords, if you meter goes ahead 2000 from your use, then it's sunny and your use drops, thus putting power back into the "grid" for let's say 500, your...

I know there's nothing on their site yet, but any update from Costa Rica?

I don't normally look at many photo contests since they want complete control of your submitted images the moment you submit them. So this one caught my eye when I read through the rules....until I got to the "must be a college student" Hefty prizes but not a lot of them. You can only submit...

Another from Utah, this time Arches National Park. Click here for full size image (warning 24MB). I'm loving Autostitch

Graham, I came across that exact page when doing some research. And that might be the way I go.....I just wasn't sure if it will handle all the viri I'd come across. The only problem with the Katadyn Expedition is it fails the second item on my list.....no hand pumping. It needs to be in the...

I've tried searching but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to figure out a good filtering system to put in a Defender 110 with the rear seats removed. my requirements are: cleans any crud that might give me the crud when south of the border works with pressurized water...

Mine's in the shop currently but that was all self inflicted (diesel engine swap) for the reason Graham mentioned "I don't have the panoply of warning lights and electronics that you have" but I don't know if I would have used panoply so well. I would have used "all dem warnin' lites". Other...

Well, did you get one?

My additional 2 GB of RAM showed up yesterday and helps a lot. I did notice I can get Autostitch to die though. I have 3GB of RAM total. If I set Autostitich to use 1GB I notice the use will go as high as 1.5GB. If it gets to within about 90% of total capacity, it gives an out of memory...

that's a helluva good idea. I tested Autostitch out later on a large swing set. I stood about 8' away of this thing that is 25' wide or so. I took them mostly in a pattern but then threw in some random shots from a different area. I got crazy at the end and started panning more left. It...
