    Massive aurora alert for tonight!

    Mom and daughter both messaged me to check for Northern Lights. I couldn't see anything, but my brother told me to take a picture anyway. It honestly looked nothing like this to the naked eye but is stunning on camera. Two shots from the most boring suburban street in north London...

    The new Battersea Powerstation complex - Anyone been?

    Lots of good shots to be had there. If you are looking for one of the classic shots of the power station, cross to the north bank of the river using the Chelsea Bridge, turn right and walk under the railway bridge. Immediately after the bridge there is a small entry where you can get close to...

    Astrophotographer Alyn Wallace has passed away

    What a terrible piece of news. I loved his work and his YouTube channel. His book is lying on my bedside table, a superb resource.

    Help needed to straighten curves in panos

    I will try and dig some out. I use either a 10mm lens on a 1.5 crop body, or a 10mm on a full-frame (usually the former). Each pano is made up of 8-10 individual shots. So the first and last are usually distortion free as the camera is vertical, but the in-betweeners have heavy curvature...

    Help needed to straighten curves in panos

    I did wonder whether that would be an alternative. I usually use spherical in either Lr or Ps. From our conversations, I am pretty sure that Peter starts with this projection too, correcting the curves in Ps somehow. Again, I will investigate. Thanks for the prompt.

    Help needed to straighten curves in panos

    I use grid lines for anything vertical or horizontal but I don't know how to generate diagonal lines, but I will look into that, thanks.

    Help needed to straighten curves in panos

    I am not the best at editing and have experimented with this, but I don't get the results I am looking for. Any advice, tips or links to helpful videos would be appreciated. I have taken several 180 degree panos of churches. Start pointing at the alter and rotate over my head until I am...

    Show us your ICM shots

    This is an ICM shot of an artwork in the Museum of Modern Art in Bologna (mamBO) called "I am a rainbow too" by Paola Pivi (http://www.mambo-bologna.org/collezioneonline/collezionecontemporanea/opera-1063/). It is a bunch of plastic strips clamped together and in my case shot from the edge with...
