I’ve been pretty happy with smugmug, but today I came across PhotoShelter, which purports to be a smugmug type service meant for Pro photographers. Interesting features include the ability to upload RAW images and that they provide strong backup features. It had always annoyed me that you couldn’t upload RAW images to smugmug. They probably […]
I stopped by the Apple store in downtown SF yesterday because we were walking around for a bit. I got a chance to play with Aperture on a G5 PowerMac with the 30 inch display. And to tell you the truth, I wasn’t that impressed. I was expecting/hoping for much improved performance, but it seemed […]

I guess this place is quickly turning into a place where I just advertise my photos. Anyways, here’s the new batch.
So it looks like there are only three reasonably priced RAW conversion programs for the Mac: Bibble Pro 4.3 (~130$), Capture One LE 3.7.1 ($99), and Nikon Capture 4.3 ($99). I tried all three, and Capture One LE seems to have the best output. It’s large advantage in my case is that it is very […]
