More Photo Backlog

Having finally found the “correct” camera calibration, I’ve now reimported my entire library back into Lightroom and have begun processing again. I’ve now posted some of the remaining pictures from Curaçao which have been waiting since last year. Maybe, by the time it’s time to leave for this year’s dive trip, I’ll have last year’s pictures posted. I have one more directory to finish, and I’m goinig to try to do it in the next hour or so. Those will be the pictures of the town of Willemstad, which is quite colorful.

Now that I feel I’m not fighting Lightroom, maybe I can process the remaining 3000 pictures sitting in my “working” documents.

A Breather To Work

After working all day Saturday and long hours during the week, I’m finally able to sit down at home and see to some system updates on my own network. I downloaded and installed Exchange 2007 SP1 Beta 2 and have to say that it is a very nice improvement over the RTM version. The full month calendar and public folder access in OWA alone make it worth while. Not only that, you can now use the GUI to manage many things that before had to be done with a command line.

So – the server is up and running and I’m hoping that it’s pretty stable as we all have to wait some months for the official version of SP1 to come out.

4th Of July Pictures

I’ve finally posted the pictures of the fireworks from the DC celebration of the 4th of July. It’s taken a while to get to them, and I probably shouldn’t have since I have so much unpacking to do, but… Well, call it creative procrastination.

Fireworks are hard to do and one thing we learned is that location is everything. Next year [or next time whenever that may be], we will have a much better idea of where we want to be. If it’s near this bridge, we have a spot picked out already – one that will give us a view of both the Lincoln and Washington memorials with fireworks over them. We’ll see how that works out whenever we get down there again.

Email Is Back.

Through a simple reboot of the firewall, the email came back. Send all you want, now! Well, no – that’s NOT an invitaition for SPAM…

Email Difficulty…

Pleae be patient – I’ve discovered that while you can browse the sites all you want, we are having trouble with email. I will post again when things are working.

Thanks for your patience.

I’m Back

After a few hours of downtime today, the servers are up and ready at their new location. I’m not impressed with the speed, so you might see some slower download times, but all in all, I’ll get by.

So, if you had any emails bounce today, please resend them – I’m ready to receive again!

Updated Pro Site

I’ve been working this weekend on my professional site. I have been utilizing my Smugmug professionally hosted site for that purpose. I currently host http://www.jeffphillips.net at home, but it will eventually go away and I will have a dedicated pro site at http://prints.jeffphillips.net (but it will have the ‘old’ www name when I’m done).

Let me know what you think about the site so far: http://prints.jeffphillips.net.

UPDATE: the new professional site is http://www.phillipsphotographik.com.
