The Best of the Glacier Shootout

[DavidTO]

We're going to put up a gallery on dgrin.smugmug.com of the best shots from Glacier. Don't worry, it's not a contest! Just reply in this thread with the LINK to your best shot or two or three, and I'll make sure it gets in the gallery.

We'll link back to your site, and only need SmugMug Large (or whatever service you use: we don't need the originals, is what I'm saying).

So reply, post the links, and I'll make it happen! :D

Thus far I have only processed like less than 10% of the plunder.
I'm pretty sure that this guy
http://nik.smugmug.com/gallery/3588435/1/203911198/Large
will make it all the way to the top, but I hope there will be more :-)

BTW, those images won't disappear from our original galleries, you only gonna copy them, right? Otherwise I'll upload another copy for dgrin gallery...

NOTHING would disappear - we'd just snag a copy of the -L large size, and put it on dgrin.smug - with your name and site in the caption, for more goodies to see :)

Yeah, we make life easy for you. Just point to the link and we will non-destructively make the magic happen!

[schmoo]

What about watermarks? I automatically watermark all my images now but a whole gallery of different ones might be distracting.

And since I'm with Nik in that less than 10% of my photos have been sorted through, here is one of the few I'm finished with. It's going to be a while before I'm able to sit down and do this for real, unfortunately. So I hope you're not closing this thread anytime soon. ;)

It's up to you, but we'd love to get them watermark-less. Maybe put them in a private gallery and email me the link?

...with your name and site in the caption, for more goodies to see :)OK, I've started the gallery:

can I make a request? when you post the link to your photo, can you also post just the text (keeping it short) you would like to appear in the caption? so I just have to copy+paste? thanks!

[zweiblumen]

I haven't quite finished yet, but this (http://tenminutesout.smugmug.com/photos/203596989-L-1.jpg) is my favorite shot from the shootout. The caption is simply "Gus."

And if you are looking for more, I like this one (http://tenminutesout.smugmug.com/photos/202888320-L-1.jpg) also. Captioned "Dead Tree."

Um, 12 smuggy orders in the last few days to process, i'd turned off proof delay in the most recent event, shot the day before we left. Will post something soon, hard to leave for 12 days and not have fallout.

Yeah, I don't want to start sending out emails for those that might not frequent the forums as much, or might not find this. So if any of you personally know someone else who went, maybe draw their attention this way? :D

We'd really like for this best of to be as comprehensive as possible, with a shot from everyone on the shootout, if possible.

I am at least one weekend away from processing most Glacier shots, and suspect I won't have much that is unique. Are shots from the preshootout acceptable?

Chris and I have mostly spent out time getting ready for a presentation to our local camera group (COBA - Camera Owners of the Bay Area), so that and work :bluduh have been getting in the way of processing. We'll try to figure out a way to post a link to the powerpoint slides -- any suggestions?

Have been enjoying what others have done. GREAT stuff!:thumb

[DoctorIt]

I think these are somewhat different from what we already have...Nik, let's hold on these. I don't want to have a firm number of shots per shooter, but the idea here is really a collection from everybody, not just shots, shooters. Cool?

Also, I like the idea of really challenging everyone to think hard about their best shot. It's easy to toss a large list of "good ones", much harder to critique yourself to the limit, really pick that BEST shot.

[gus]

Man i totally suck at landscapes so really this is the only one i got that had any colour to speak of.

Our very own Marc Muench. I was shivering so bad i really needed the IS. I think the shadows need to be blacker but my monitor is an 8 year old CRT that has never been calibrated so someone let me know if its needed please.

Yeah it pretty much looks awesome. The color is great.

You were shivering because you had like a shirt and a light jacket on.....but at least you looked cool. :D

it's gonna be a bit for me to get mine up, So far I've only processed one photo... Hopefully I can sit down on my next day off of work and work on the rest of my photos...

Fantastic images all! Makes it all the more painful I missed the Moab signup.

Terrence & Butcho - I really like those images you have of "First Day of Winter" and "Sunset at Many Glacier". The color accents work on the B&W/desaturated sense the rest of the image has in both. Very dramatic.

[DoctorIt]

Bump... where is everybody? I know there were more of you at the shootout!!!

Fantastic gallery!!!

Really sorry I missed this trip.:cry

Ann , beautiful images as always. I didnt get the opportunity to thank you for the offer of some gloves i think on the 1st or 2nd morning we were out. I was totally out of my bloody tree with the cold there & you came from 50 yards away with an offer of warmth. I wouldnt be able to operate the camera with gloves but it locked in my head that you did notice the 'silly cold aussie' & made a special trip to help me out.

Thankyou.

Thanks, Doc. Should I get you larger sized images? Haven't paid attention to what the new XL sizes are all about :dunno

Gus - when I saw you out there in that thin little jacket, without gloves and that howling wind, how could I not offer. I brought a bunch of extra clothes for just such an occassion - if I'd realized how tall you were I would have brought some of my hubby's stuff to lend you.
When you turned me down, I figured you were looking at frostbte as a right of passage.....:D

OK, so I guess it's time to spill the beans, or, er, uh, Markham has already spilled them! (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=76630)

We'll be publishing a Blurb book of the Best of Glacier. The special deal that we get is outlined in the post from Markham I linked above.

So, here's the deal: GET YOUR IMAGES INTO US, and we'll get them in the book. Then other Dgrinners can purchase the book, and get free shipping. Schmoo will be putting the book together. She write good! :D

Spread the word, and if you've been slacking on getting your images in, get on it!

We'll have the book ready for purchase some time after the 1st of the year. :thumb

Cool news David. Is there any prefered size ratio or format, portrait or landscape? I would assume extra long panos would be hard to fit onto the page of a book?

[schmoo]

Is there any prefered size ratio or format, portrait or landscape? I would assume extra long panos would be hard to fit onto the page of a book?
From my experiences with Blurb so far that sort of thing doesn't matter. Extra long panos will, of course, be smaller in the final product due to the fact that the page is only so big, so it's either squish small or crop ends off. But the nice thing is that the slurp program gives LOTS of options as to how to fit them onto a page and you can be sure that the utmost consideration will be taken to showcase each shot so that it looks its best. :D

OK, so I guess it's time to spill the beans, or, er, uh, Markham has already spilled them! (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=76630)

We'll be publishing a Blurb book of the Best of Glacier. The special deal that we get is outlined in the post from Markham I linked above.

So, here's the deal: GET YOUR IMAGES INTO US, and we'll get them in the book. Then other Dgrinners can purchase the book, and get free shipping. Schmoo will be putting the book together. She write good! :D

Spread the word, and if you've been slacking on getting your images in, get on it!

We'll have the book ready for purchase some time after the 1st of the year. :thumb
I dont know if mine should really be in it as it isnt Glacier so it might be better to leave it out.

Just to be really clear on this, the book is not being published by SmugMug or Blurb, it's being published by the Dgrin Community as a way to celebrate a fun, inspirational and educational event. Blurb is offering a discount to SmugMug peeps, but the book is by you and for you.

It'll be a great keepsake of the trip. :barb

I'm really shocked and surprised that many of you think we want to make money on this.

TO BE CLEAR: Smuggy wants no part of making any profit on you, your photos of Glacier, from this book.

It's just a fun idea for those who went on the trip. I'm looking forward to my copy :thumb

Well, as one (maybe the only one) that decided to opt out of the book, I'll try
to explain why.

I was one of the first to add my two shots to the gallery. After about a month,
it was announced that "We" (at that time I had no idea who "We" were)
were going to make a book with the shots.
Nothing was said how many books were being made, or if our shots would
be used in other ways. (ie promotions, whatnot)

The email that David sent was very vague, at one point it says "if you want
to opt out just say so.", then the next line in the email says "if you have a
problem with us using your images say so."
If I opt out of the book, what other ways of using them are we talking about?
What am I giving you (we, them, us) the right to use the shots for?

Am I just paranoid? Maybe. Lets just say at 49 years old, I've been stepped
on a few times in my life. I'm a little more careful now.

If you would be willing to do something for me (to end my paranoia),
Send me (others) an email saying that my (our) shots would be used only to create
XXX number of books. Have someone with the authority (Andy, Baldy, whoever)
to electronically sign it, and I'm back in. (but I want the cover):wink :wink :wink (just kidding)

Now that I am the most hated man on the dgrin forums, and I'm sure some
will think that I'm an ungrateful S.O.B., I'm really not. I enjoyed the trip,
loved talking to the new folks, and the folks from the year before.
I even like the idea of the book, I just like to have my bases covered.

Hopefully that doesn't make me the bad guy.

P.S. Just how large (in inches) is the book going to be?
The largest shots on my site are 1200 x 800, how large are they going to be printed?
I guess I just ask to many questions.:dunno

[schmoo]

Hi Dave, don't worry and I'm glad this issue is being raised because you bring up good points. As this is the maiden voyage of the Dgrin/SM/Blurb community project it's great that these questions are being raised sooner than later. I think it's more than fair for all of us as photographers to make sure our bases are covered and our artwork is protected. :D

I will let Andy or Markham address the legal stuffs but I can tell you that we'll end up going with the standard landscape book format. The optimal sizes for the very largest (full bleed) containers in the book layouts are ~2888 pixels on the longest side but if the photos that you submit are smaller than that then there are many many ways to get them in at lower resolution, too.

For information purposes, for design reasons I won't be making every photo a full-bleed page but the max possible in the landscape format book is 8.2 inches by 9.6 inches.

I hope this helps!

[davev]

Thanks Schmoo.

I know Kate wants to get a couple of shots up, she just hasn't decided which ones yet.
OK, I (we) haven't gone through all of her shots yet. How was I to know that
she was going to be trigger happy? She hasn't taken 200 pictures in the last
2 years, on this trip, 1900. :dunno

I think that the book is for the people who went on the trip. Who else is gonna buy it? I doubt anyone. Certainly there's no profit on the book. It was just a fun idea, and I think you misunderstood. Or we could have explained better. Sure your concerns are valid, Dave, but nobody's trying to make a buck from you or your images here.

Yes, but really we were just thinking about putting the book together after the first of the year. The deadline's not set in stone, but more of a goal to work towards. Let us know what you need! This book is by the community, and for the community. A deadline shouldn't stand in the way of everyone participating!

I like it, except for there not being much background, and the lone tree feels a little out of place...

On second thought, maybe it's because of the lone tree that the background feels empty, it might help if you cropped the bottom as close to the bird as you can, to kind of hide the tree...

Or just clone it out. The background is enough of a constant color that this should be fairly easy to accomplish.

Hi Schmoo! Here is my bear shot - I think it should be among my top three, rather than just landscapes. If this is too late, that is okay, too. I'd choose this one over the St. Mary Lake shoreline shot.

As I look through the galleries now (after a few months away) my favorites change, and probably will continue to do so. Anyway, I picked several panos as favorites - let me know if they are inappropriate sizes and I can pick others.

I am looking forward to the results!

Thanks for doing this.

Nice lookin' black bear :D

Where are you keeping these shots? Looked around your galleries and can't find anything related to glacier - I know that you have some great landscapes tucked away somewhere - I saw them as you chimped away day after day - c'mon, Christina, share a landscape or two!!!


ann

That coyote al is mighty fine as well!

[Phyxius]

Thanks, Ann! Most of the landscapes I really liked were from the preshootout. I had a couple from Glacier, but they're pretty much duplicates of some other shots here. Most I just plain haven't gone through yet. My boss is going to buy both the moonsetting at St. Mary's Lake and the sunrising behind St. Mary's Lake. But I already saw some gorgeous versions of the moon setting.

The sunrise is this one:

I also have contemplated a candid section so I'm really pleased to hear that you guys would like one. I think it would be a great addition, too.

[DavidTO]

Boy, you guys are unstoppable! :D

OK, so if we do this, we've got an added layer of complexity here, and I think that we could use some help.

1) We need to have photos that we have the right to use.

2) We need to have permission to publish people's likenesses. No one should be surprised to see their picture in the book.

Schmoo is already taking on a huge job just getting the photos put together. I'm looking for someone to coordinate the photos and rights to the candid images.

But here's the catch: it needs to happen rather quickly, and I don't think we should be leaving anyone out that wants to be a part of it. Whoever gathers the candids and keeps track of the rights will work with Schmoo to get the images collected.

Who's up for it? :ear

Cool beans! Thanks for stepping up.

I think just a PM or email is fine. We don't need to get too legaleze about this. I just want to make sure that everyone is aware and OK with what we're doing. This book really belongs to all of the people at the shootout. And it doesn't need to be real formal or anything. I just don't want any surprises. :thumb

Schmoo will follow up with you.

David's right - you guys are unstoppable! I am really excited about getting this book done and in everyone's hands and I can't believe we're almost there.

Scott Quier generously offered to give me a hand with the consent stuff, so if you're OK with candids of you being in the book, please send him a PM. Thanks!

As for candid submissions feel free to send them in or post links and I'll stick them in a private gallery until ready to use. The larger the better, so preferably XL or O. I'm going to tentatively say there's no limit so that we can pick the ones where consent of all the models are given and still have enough.

I think that should work? Whew! :D

We've been getting quite a few PMs requesting specific approval on each candid photo we use. Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of time to get individual OKs on 50+ proofs! If you are not comfortable with us selecting the shots we understand and will scrap this part of the project. No harm, no foul: We have so many great artistic shots already. :D Of course I would like to not leave anyone out, but consent for using likenesses is going to have to be an all-or-nothing kind of deal, meaning YES for using, NO for not at all. Please let Scott or myself know how you feel about this.

Thanks!

So are you giving your approval Mrs. Camerashy?

Fair question! I'll do what I have to. I'm not fond of having that end of the camera pointed at me but you all saw me snarling at Shay at the SM Party :lol3

My candids are here (http://canadian-ann.smugmug.com/gallery/3597252)

Let me know if you need something different, like captions or other sizes enabled (not sure what settings I've got there).

FWIW I think all the candids I've seen of you have been top shelf. Regardless of what you may think, you are very photogenic. :wink So there!

Excellent, Dave, thank you! And welcome to Dgrin too! :clap

[davev]

If I can, I'd like to be able to put some photos into the book.
Knowing that Marc and Dave are submitting shots eases my paranoia about the plots against me. :wink

So if it's not to late, I'd like you use the shots already in the gallery, and/or
a couple of more.

I was walking down the street when a man hammering on a roof called me a paranoid fool in morse code.

Ya know, a lot of people think that others are plotting against them.
But with me, it's really true. :s85

Its a rainy day & im clearing out my old PC before i hit the big delete button. I found this if anyone is interested in doing the processing i can send it to them. I have no idea how to process it.

Hey Skippy,

I'm gettting up to speed finally, and really enjoying all the work! There is no shortage of great photos.:clap

[DougNorCal]

Was the end of the year a hard stop for picture submissions?

Work and home life have been insanely crazy since before Thanksgiving and I just got back from being out of the country for two weeks. I haven't had a chance to do much with the Glacier pics for 6 or 8 weeks. Definitely want to get a copy of the book even if I don't have one of my pictures in there.

If I missed it then my New Year's resolution will be to process faster after the Arches Shootout.

Nope, haven't missed anything at all! Still working on it, so post 'em up here if you've got 'em. :D

Hope things have quieted down a bit for you by now!

Doug and everyone else,

I finally got my paws on all the files I need for making the book, so I will be crawling into my cave and knuckling under with layouts this weekend. If anyone still has not submitted photos for this and would like to, shoot me a PM and be ready to supply unwatermarked full-res images. :thumb

Thanks everyone!

[schmoo]

Alrighty! The book has been slowly coming together and I think it's safe to say that it's entering the final stages. In my extremely humble opinion, I think it looks totally awesomely great thanks to all you contributors. :bow

As I finish the formatting and tweaking details, I would really like to have a few people to bounce ideas off of, if you will. I would love to involve all 50 of us who were there, but due to technological impossibility would 2 or 3 of you Dgrinners be interested in being an abbreviated advisory board? It wouldn't be a timesuck, just a method of getting feedback from others who are artistic, creative, observant and shared the experience in Montana. It would be most appreciated! :thumb

I also wanted to say: Thank you so much for your patience in this project, everyone! I hope you'll eventually agree that it's worth the delay.

[ian408]

Sure. I'll be an editor.

What if only one of the four apply to you :dunno? Glad to help if it's needed.

[pathfinder]

I'll help in any way I can, Stephanie:thumb

[Scott_Quier]

I would also be more than happy to give you a hand - if my opinion is worth anything. :D

Thanks guys! You rock! :smo
