I hope that capturing the depth and beauty of San Francisco brought a smile to your face. And if you're still feeling down (or miss me?), give me a shout! We need to hang out, Halle Terry, thank you for taking and sharing those wonderful shots of our incredible city.

In multi-mode, the Nikon averages the multiple shots in camera so more exposures doesn't change the shutter speed. I'm considering buying an 5" ND filter plate and hacking together a filter from a lenshood. I hope I credited you accurately for the picture frame (mouse over your name). The actual framing action comes from Kevin Kubota and then modified by me. I considered watermarking the image (which is very easy to do in Aperture), but decided against it since I don't have a copyright problem as much as you and other professionals (I noticed a number of them have resorted to a 10% screened copyright). I don't mind a little lifting of the image (for blogs and such), but it occurred to me that I should at least make it so they ask when using an image for publication. If the framing and naming takes too long, I think I'll have to crack open some books and figure out how to turn it into a Photoshop Javascript (instead of an Action). I don't plan on framing regular party photographs so that will probably help. As I was resizing them down anyways, I thought making an action to provide image data and improve the presentation would be easy. In the future, I’ll probably use the <a href="http://web.mac.com/reinharduebel/BorderFX/" rel="nofollow">BorderFX</a> Aperture plugin to save some time. I hope I can get out more. While it is exhausting to wake up early in the dead of night to take 100 images for one keeper, it’s really nice to be able to talk to myself. @Jim Goldstein: The problem with the bulb mode is that the image in this case would get overexposed.

That is one thing that Canon is missing that would be nice to have. Still its not the end of the world. For me I can't help but like using a cable release and bulb mode to get my long exposures. Even if I had the option to try this technique I'd still opt for my standard long exposure method. Funny thing is when I was looking at your blog and I saw the framed images I took a double take. If you're looking to do something further with your framed images I would put a copyright watermark on the image. You'd be surprised how many people lift images and crop them. I look forward to seeing more of your outdoor work. Perhaps getting out more will help you feel a little better.
