This little head can be found in the wall of an old building on the North Quay at Padstow in Cornwall. I have no idea about its significance but I would like to find out. I must have walked by this at least a 100 times but had not seen it until I was looking [...]

IMatch – the decision (for now)
Posted in Finepix S5600, Photography on August 21, 2006 | Leave a Comment »
I have been trying to decide whether to stop using the Organiser in Photoshop Elements 4 and buy a licence for IMatch. If you are interested I posted my first impressions of IMatch here. I have to say that I have been very impressed. It’s much quicker and easier to assign tags to photos and [...]
Picture #8 – Robin
Posted in Birds, Finepix S5600, Photography, Photos on August 16, 2006 | 1 Comment »
Of all the birds there are to photograph the Robin must be one of the easiest. They are very inquisitive and if fed regularly they become very tame. This one was photographed in a cafe garden in Padstow.

Google no longer lists my blog posts?

I wondered why the hits on my blog entries has dried up (I didn’t get many but I’ve only just started) and now I know. All the entries that were appearing in a google search are no longer there . In fact it knows nothing of my site at all; a search of site:luckhurst.wordpress.com [...]
Photoshop Elements 4 – Face tagging

What format do you archive your photos in?
Posted in Finepix S5600, Photography on August 12, 2006 | 3 Comments »
Until now I have automatically archived the original photo files from my S5600 thinking that whatever happens to any files I edit I can always go back to the originals. However, I am starting to think that this may not be the best thing to do. “Why?” I hear you cry.
My S5600 stores it’s RAW [...]
Picture #7 – Helter Skelter

I just loved the colours in this picture and also the fact that you don’t see many helter skelters around these days. This one was at the Royal Cornwall Show 2006.

The Luminous Landscape
IMPULSE Adventure
Following my Photoshop Elements database troubles I downloaded the evaluation version of IMatch to see what it was like. So far I’m very impressed. Creating a [...]
Photoshop Elements 4 database troubles
Posted in Photography on August 4, 2006 | 5 Comments »
After praising the Photoshop Elements Organiser in an earlier post it is now causing me no end of grief. A few months ago I had a couple of ODBC errors displayed when it tried adding files to a version set after an edit. I quick run of the recover option and all seemed well again. [...]
