Re: Bulk photo scanning
Interpolation is a method of upscaling an image by adding additional pixels based on the state of the surrounding ones. So, in the case of the scanner, it scans at 600dpi but then upscales to 1200 by adding pixels - not the best idea for quality, but it all depends on what you want to do with the im...

Re: Northolt Night Photoshoot XXVIIa Thursday 13th October 2022
Hi Phil - just had a rather strange email puportedly from you regarding "a few pictures from last night" followed by a very dodgy looking url. I am assuming that it was not from you and that your email (or someone who has you in their address book) has been hacked. If I received it, others...

Re: FRIAT 2023 ticket increases discussion
OK, so the Q&A email has arrived - looks like they have back-pedled on the booking process (good news) but I am confused about the Band B seats - you either get a Row A seat that has not been allocated in Band A, an aisle seat in any row, seats 1&2 in any row or a bottom row seat. What is so...

Warning - Scam camera sales web site
Evenin' all. Whilst checking prices for the new EOS R6 I came across "Gabbys Cameras" - came up in a Google search in the promoted ads part - their price was £400 cheaper than the rest (which were all the same - not surprising at launch time) which sparked my interest. Sure enough, further...

Wow - some cracking shots there - thanks to all that participated! I particularly like some of the historic shots such as the EA-3B and the bumpy Andover (had totally forgotten about that one!) plus a goodly selection of Russian experimental and AEW stuff, but the stand-out shot for me is Rebel14/Ma...

Hi Stuart, I would concur with Trevor - you already have an answer in Nik.

"You can sit in the sun in your local park" When you go outside you may visit your local park but only with members of your own household. All seems fairly understandable to me and commonsense (sadly lacking I agree) should indicate that 'social distancing" should still be applied! T...

the law hasn't changed though. It is still an offence to be out of your property without reasonable excuse. Quite. It is just that the list of "reasonable excuses" has increased and now (as of Wednesday 13th May) includes "as well as exercise, people can now also spend time outdoors ...

No, it is a widely reported error impacting (I believe) all W7 users and some W10 users my W10 laptop installation is fine but my home PC (W7) is not.

Photoshop CC 2020 error - warning!
A word of warning for those using Photoshop Creative Cloud 2020 - the new version (out yesterday V21.1.0) has a serious bug in that various tools (lasso, marquee, clone stamp, smudge/blur, healing brush etc.) create an additional area of change that has nothing to do with the area you are selecting/...
