Chip - no, she just really does not have any friends....it is sad really. Poor girl. If she was just a little nicer... :>)

So far we have 10 different people interested in submitting about 20 films (mostly shorts). That is a great start. If interest like this continues we might just be able to pull this off. Aloha - darren

Certainly. Sometimes those get the best croud reaction. - darren

I posted a poll to see how many people are interested in submitting films: http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?t=27630 Aloha - darren

Please see this thread for information on the proposed VFTT Film Festival: http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?t=27629

Carmel and I have discussed the Banff Film Festival many times over the past several years. We feel that "back in the day" the films were real indy efforts and often produced by a few friends that were having fun the backcountry. Today, a lot of the films are funded by six figure grant money...

I'll lock it for you (seeeee.....I told you so...6 pages in 1 day... ha) For what it is worth, I would be ok with a LIGHT grey shirt with the green logo (or a green shirt with the white logo). But as Chomp said, that dark grey shirt just looked too dark and too hot. OK, maybe orange with a...

Another vote for the Pinnacle. I assume you already know about the Stowe recreational path right through town. You can snowshoe right to The Shed brewery. :) Also, 108 in Sumgglers Notch is closed in winter so you can walk right up the road through the notch and that is nice in winter. From...

Well it didn't take long for you to figure out that this type of stuff is a royal PITA, huh? "Nice! I really like it.....now can you change it and have 47 different options?" :) I like logo #1 with the URL. Since it is a short sleeve shirt I'll be wearing it in warmer weather. In warm...

That quick control screen looks awesome - especially if you are shooting on a tripod with a remote release. No more having to get up to look at the top of the camera to check settings. I'd really like to have that feature. Man, you guys are killing me. Unfortunately my new gear storage...

BTW, I have experimented with HDR a few times and I am interested in doing more experimentation. I would enjoy seeing other HDR work from people here and learning from other's experience. Aloha - darren

I enjoy subtle use of HDR and the effects it can provide. It can mimic the use of a graduated neutral density filter (GND) and allow you to even the light between foreground and sky. However, just like GNDs, they can be over used and result in "fake" looking shots - reflections in lakes that...

There is a thread in Site Help that explains how to access the kayak / canoe forum: http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14099 - darren

There are two "hidden" forums on the site, one for kayaking / canoeing and one for nature photography. They are "hidden" because not everyone is interested in reading them. Info on accessing the kayak forum is at: http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14099 Info on accessing the...

Nice shots. I like the second to last best. Full frame moose shots at 75mm???? You better take off your mama moose costume before a bull comes around... :D - darren

Great shots everyone. Keep them coming! Thanks, but those are humpback whales! I got to sit on the cliff and watch them for over a half hour. Aloha - darren

Tough to narrow it down to just 8. These might not be my best photos from 2008, but these are some of my favorite shots from 2008. Koolau Mountains from Mariner's Ridge A few shots from several hikes out to Kaena Point to see the Lysan Albatross Panorama from the Spine of the Dragon...

Thanks, I needed that. I've already had it with the cold and snow. - darren

You park off the highway in a fairly remote area to get the bus ride down the dirt road to Lake O'Hara. I say fairly remote because from what I remember there is a hotel nearby but I dont remember a lot of stores etc. So you want to have your food and supplies squared away when you get to the...

Driving once you fly there or driving from Mass? Take it from someone who has traveled in a car from Mass to the Canadian Rockies...it is a looooong way, and there is a whole lot of nothing in the middle. that was back in 1984. The second time I went to the Canadian Rockies I flew to Calgary...
