Categories Adobe Chester County Coatesville Drawdown Hibernia Park Lakes Nik Software Photo Journal Photography Snow Tone Mapping Drawdown with Snow – Chambers Lake Post author By Andrew Post date February 21, 2014 I was driving along Chamber Lake in Hibernia Park yesterday, and I had to stop for the view of the drawdown with snow. This is a small (3635×1000) panoramic view, of 9 images ‘stitched’ together, looking toward the dam. Chambers Lake panorama with Snow (3635×1000) I was standing knee-deep in snow, and for the locals, there is a good 5-8 feet of water missing because of the drawdown. You can also see maintenance trucks working on the dam itself. [contentblock id=1] Tags Chambers Lake, Coatesville, Drawdown, Hibernia Park, Illustrator, Nik Software, panorama, Photoshop, Viveza
Categories Chester County Downingtown Events Nature Photo Journal Photography Tone Mapping Weather Panorama of Kerr Park Post Hurricane Irene Post author By Andrew Post date September 12, 2011 I finally finished this MONSTER! As I blogged before, this image is composed of 42 images stitched together in Photoshop CS5, and then some Tone Mapping. NOTE – By Clicking on the Image Twice (2 Times) you can see the FULL image! Kerr Park – Post Hurricane Irene – Panorama At one point, this file was 3.7GBs in size! But I have been able to get it down to a little over 7MBs as a JPEG file. It has been interesting to see which sites are having problems with the size… Sites having issues with the FULL size image – 11336×1000 (157.4″x13.8″) Facebook Google+ Sites NOT having issues with the FULL size image – 11336×1000 (157.4″x13.8″) Flickr Panoramio Hope you enjoy! – Andrew § § § § § [adrotate banner=”1″] Tags Brandywine Creek, Chester County, Downingtown, Flooding, Hurricane Irene, Kerr Park, panorama
Categories Adobe How to(s)? Information Photography Reference Software Tips Large Image Files – PSB vs TIFF Post author By Andrew Post date September 1, 2011 In this post, I am going to explore some basic differences between the various Photoshop file formats: PSD, TIFF and PSB I’m working on a very large image, and it is a panorama of (42) 10 MP captures, each between 8-10 MBs, merged into Photoshop CS5.1. Photoshop CS 5.1 can not save anything over 2.0 GBs as a PSD file… Photoshop CS 5.1 – 2 GB File Size error message The TIFF file is 3.7 GBs… File Properties – TIFF and the PSB file is 2.7 GBs… File Properties – PSB Open Questions In this example above, there is approximately 1 GB (25%) loss in file size… Where did it go? File compress? Color Data? File Optimization? Findings Photoshop PSD (max) file size: 2 GBs Photoshop PSB (max) file size: 4 exabytes (300,000 x 300,000 pixels – 350 x 350 feet) TIFF (max) file size: 4 GBs Observations Lightroom is not “seeing” my 2.7 GB PSB file, but is “seeing” the 3.7 GB TIFF. References “Optimize performance | Photoshop CS4, CS5” – Adobe Systems anyone got any ideas? [contentblock id=1] Tags error, file formats, Large Image Files, panorama, Photoshop, PSB, PSD, TIFF

I have also gotten a chance to post my entry for that Mother’s Day event with the family. This is a VERY LARGE IMAGE (6000 px x 4500 px)! – Andrew § § § § § [adrotate banner=”1″] Tags Exton, Exton Square Mall, Ferris Wheel, panorama, Spring Carnival
