I would not shoot in srgb. The color space is much smaller than adobe rgb. You are losing large amounts of color data. Shoot in adobe rgb preferably in RAW or RAW + JPEG and use convert to profile in PS after you have tweaked your images to get a srgb file in the size that you want.
I also shoot in Adobe RGB – as David says, the gamut is significantly larger, so you just have more colors.
It’s always fun to spend other people’s money, but it’s more fun if we know the budget and what (generally) you’re looking to get.
How much do you anticipate getting from the Ins. Co.?
What’re you looking for in terms of reach?
There’s an old adage in the IT world about RAID:
“RAID 0, isn’t”
Raid can be a great option for added security if you do it right, but make sure you do your research.
Brett,
You make a good point, and I think this will actually make state’s licenses more likely to succeed.
That headline is actually a bit misleading (NOAA’s, not yours Scott) since the Saltwater Angler Registry is already law, and it will begin 1/1/09.
Zach, you make some good points there – print media in general is almost certainly going to continue to contract going forward, just as the pool of people with cameras capable of taking a publishable shot expands.
Kevin,
I posted a pic or two in the other thread, but I didn’t see the question about flies- That’s an easy one though.
It’s nice to see what everyone else has going – seems like Pixelpost is a popular option.
My website is at http://www.mattboutet.com – It’s usually more saltwater than freshwater, but the stripers haven’t shown up yet, so I’ll be posting more sweetwater stuff for at least another week or two.
Matt,
I don’t have that particular lens, but I do have the Sigma 10-20mm, and it’s a great fishing lens.

BH Prince NymphI’ll see about digging up pics of some of the Hollow, Slump, and Split-tail this weekend.
The painting with light idea is a good one – I’ve had decent luck with longer exposures and a small maglite – I’ve never tried a short exposure though.
Another thought – Why not get there earlier (if you’re getting up that early anyway, another hour isn’t going to make much of a difference) and set up someplace else for a few shots – that way you can add some more light to the mix without worrying about spooking birds.
