I googled - very impressive. My aunt and uncle did a tour a few years ago of the South and they loved it. Must ask if they went here.  Fashionable Romance  Biltmore Estate LINK Wedding Gowns in Film February 12 – July 4, 2016
In celebration of Biltmore’s long history as a location for weddings and romantic getaways,
the estate is hosting a new costume exhibition highlighting love stories from iconic films.
Fashionable Romance: Wedding Gowns in Film, presented by Belk, showcases
wedding dresses and attire from major motion pictures spanning centuries of design.
More than 40 award-winning costumes from 19 classic films will be displayed throughout
the grand rooms of Biltmore House. Costumes illustrate changing styles in wedding fashions
from the 1700s through the 1940s and the exquisite attention to detail that Cosprop Ltd.,
London, brings to its film costume projects. Accenting the costume displays will be elaborate
floral arrangements complementing each film’s era, created by Biltmore’s Floral design team.
The exhibition will continue in Antler Hill Village & Winery with stories and heirlooms from
60 years of Vanderbilt family weddings, including a re-creation of Cornelia Vanderbilt Cecil's
beautiful wedding gown and veil, and the family veil worn by both Jacqueline Kennedy and
her cousin, Mary Lee Ryan Cecil, at their weddings. |

" Pride of place in (holy) family living room*"![]() i64.images obliterated by tinypic/235ut3.jpg[/IMG] Well the love of music was there from a very early age. That would have been around 1967 and the record I was playing was probably a Beatles 45rpm. I still had the same manic grin when I heard Aqualung the first time - natural not drug induced. * only one room*

Graham talking about the demise of the village hall on the other thread reminded of this photo that I took in Portugal over twenty five years ago. My daughter ran down a side street in the little town we were staying in and I discovered her sitting in the chair looking like she belonged in the beautiful, shambolic, rustic (Mexican-like) and by the look of the flowers - much loved hub of the little town. Now that's a stage! Hidden behind the cloth! ![]() i65.images obliterated by tinypic/25f15w1.jpg[/IMG] |

One from my recent holiday in Tenerife It's always good when the sun goes down, you can break out the rum and coke Fantastic photograph Ashley. Any chance of the technical details? Sony a5000 ƒ/8.0, 16-50mm lens at 50.0 mm, 1/100, ISO 100 . Taken as a RAW image and processed in Adobe Lightroom 6.5. I take all my photos in RAW format these days because it gives more options for adjustment than a Jpeg which are processed by the camera |

I dabbled with RAW a while back but I found I couldn't upload the photo's to either Flickr or Photobucket. Any idea where I went wrong? Cheers John |

Cheers John RAW is just that an unprocessed file that you have to process (develop) in a program that will do that and the RAW file as it stands often look pretty rubbish . After the editing you then re-save it as a Jpeg or a Tiff. Flickr or Photobucket do not allow The RAW format to be uploaded. The only Cloud site I know of that lets you save RAW files is Sony PlayMemories. The best program I have found for doing the process is Adobe Lightroom. Manly because you can process a RAW file in it but still keep the original RAW file without any extra space used up on the hard drive. I upload my processed files as Jpegs to Flickr but I also keep all my RAW files to my hard drive and a back up drive This may help  photographyconcentrate.com/10-reasons-why-you-should-be-shooting-raw/ |

I just need to buy some bigger memory cards now. Cheers! |

Cheers John 32gb are good, 16gb fill up fast if you use that setting. I look at a RAW file the same as the old negative but instead of going into the darkroom you open the software . Have fun let us know how you get on. RAW mode is a must for Tull concerts |
