I had a quiet day,
there were still a few things to do regarding the shop, and then playtime!, I decided on another photograph I had taken of Henck Röling, here is what I wrote about him when I posted about our day in Kew Gardens:
"he was responsible for much of the display, and very resplendent he looked too in his kilt, he is what could be described as a Master Florists, if you visit the Ritz, Southerby’s, and Fortnum and Mason, to name a few you will have seen his weekly floral displays, also Henck’s work here at Kew Gardens’ Orchid Festivals, where Henck has created a fabulous series of floral installations over the past eight years, it is the first time we have actually seen him",
when I took this photograph I was using the 100 - 200mm zoom lens, so I was quite some distance from him, there were a lot of plants between him and myself, I tried to find a spot where just his head would be showing between them, he was explaining to some of the visitors about his displays, and I waited until he looked my way, it sort of worked, next I tried my hand at one of the RAF (RAW) files from the camera, they are all huge, 200mp+
the amount of detail they contain is massive, my poor old computer was not really built with these huge files in mind, it is 8 RAM looking at advice from the Internet for this sort of thing 16 RAM is really needed, I guess as a result it takes an age to load or edit the files, but I persevered and above is the result, it looks no different on the blog, but zooming in on the computer and looking at the image above the detail looks so fine, also a A3 print that I made of it looked so detailed, maybe I am imaging it, but there it is, luckily I had finished it by the time Diana called in the afternoon to pick her up, arriving home after our evening meal it was a Midsomer Murder time, another one from so long ago we had to watch most of it before remembering who the culprit was, after which a Endeavour, tomorrow Diana has another early shift, so when that finished we were both off to bed.
