Hey Ausable –

I’m inclined to call it a very incremental improvement.

[Zach Matthews]

Yup, Lauren and I have to be the only two non-bikers in the country who’ve driven cross country through the Sturgis rally two years in a row.

There’s no cutting this McFly Foam, even with kevlar thread, Carter.

[Zach Matthews]

Hahaha, this is why I rarely do any logo design any more.

[Zach Matthews]

Thank you Tim and Ian.

[Zach Matthews]

All true Scott, but keep in mind also that the White is one of the few epic-class rivers in the country.

[Zach Matthews]

I’ve always worn a Simms 10 over my wader booties, and that’s what I did again.

[Zach Matthews]

I’ll second the guide to aquatic trout foods.

Carter –

Not to screw with your head, but how much more is the D80 for you now?

[Zach Matthews]

Great question – you show a lot of wisdom asking it.

In this order:

1) Troubleshooting the Cast by Ed Jaworowski

2) Advanced Fly Fishing Tactics by Lefty Kreh

3) The LL Bean Fly Fishing Handbook

4) Dave Whitlock’s LL Bean Guide to Fly Fishing for Bass

Those will give you a good round grounding in the sport.

Carter –

You need wide angle worse than anything.

#1 It’s about time you got an avatar.

#2 The 8X is a good jacket, but it isn’t going to keep your cuffs dry when you go swimming like I described to you the other day.

Hey Bryan –

As I am probably not going to be addressing price issues in the article, I think I can take this up with you here.

[Zach Matthews]

Adobe Lightroom Beta is currently free, runs on Windows and Mac, and has a very sexy slide-show program built in that can actually output an entire webpage complete with flash menus to navigate.

Les, Carter –

Part of what I am doing by asking you guys these questions is determining what further questions I need to ask.

[Zach Matthews]

My typical workflow includes adjusting Levels (with which I’ve been getting better results than pure saturation increases), Contrast, Color Balance, Selective Color, Saturation, Unsharp Mask, in that order.

[Zach Matthews]

These are all extremely helpful comments — more than you guys probably realize — and I want to thank you all very much.

Hi Great Lakes Fly Addict guys.

[Zach Matthews]

Flyfishertoo –

Oh, don’t worry about it, man, I didn’t take it as confrontational at all.

[Zach Matthews]

Just to add to what Buzz is saying about highlights being blown:

Film was extremely good at having a “long shoulder,” or a slow curve down to the absolute white or absolute black that results from an image being either completely exposed or completely unexposed.
