    Lightroom alternative for both Windows and Mac?

    That's interesting, trouble is I use the LR Develop module almost all the time, only occasionally turning to PS, losing it for the times I need (including the ability to reverse PDF back into docs - subscribers may not even realise you have that capability) is a wrench, possibly too far. A great...

    Greetings from Southend

    Mmmmm. That free coffee has a LOT to answer for.

    Greetings from Southend

    My, you don' half get some riff raff here these days, apparently they'll let anyone in. Ey 'oop, welcome aboard.

    Any Electric Motor experts?

    "MORE" Bread

    Ah yes, I haven't actually shared with my family how kneading wholemeal after gardening leaves your hands miraculously clean :D I too enjoy making by hand, but these days because I also bake for my daughter's family of 5 I go for speed and ease.

    "MORE" Bread

    I'm always interested in anything different, a brioche this size with my recipe has more than 4,000 calories! Looks innocent, doesn't it? I'm assuming there must be some fat in the vegan version? (the page I found that picture has only half the amount of eggs, otherwise quite similar. Those...

    "MORE" Bread

    Interesting, would be worth a try one day, in some ways it's a little like how I bake my baguettes (actually I par-bake and freeze 'em in batches, from T55 flour) but with the baguettes I make at 75% but with double the normal yeast, then do multiple rises over at least 12 hours. The end result...

    "MORE" Bread

    Interesting, thanks, although I've heard of Forkish I've not encountered his recipes (which are the antithesis of my normal bake which takes 2 hours from the start to out the oven ;) ) And yes, hydration is the percentage water, anything over 65% for white and 70% for wholemeal starts getting...

    "MORE" Bread

    That first one has a very 16th century Dutch still life feel to it. Lots of people seem to swear by Forkish, and that's a good first effort, what sort of hydration level was it? Yeast or sourdough rise? The big holes look like sourdough, but the overall texture looks a bit more yeast-like. I've...

    Camera hip bags for cycling

    https://www.lowepro.com/uk-en/slingshot-edge-250-aw-lp36899-pww/ is what I used to use for cycling and photography. The only downside is that the zips on mine didn't seem to be up to extended use (but I did use it/them a LOT) ETA if it isn't clear, the bag is on a single strap (with an optional...

    Watches

    I've always liked watches and clockwork, part of the fun with messing around with shutter mechanisms from folding 120 cameras (as I have done, quite a bit) is that you can fool yourself that you're like a watchmaker, but without causing too much damage ;) Anyhow, when I was a littl'un, the...

    Upgrading an old body

    Having read the title, I am most disappointed with this thread. I was hoping for some tips.

    Places to visit in Northern France (via car)

    Calais to Paris you pass through WWI countryside, as has been said most WWII DDay is in Normandy. That said, La Coupole is very worth a visit and not far from your route, Calais also has a good WWII museum, (best one is between Calais and Boulogne) and there are a few other related places in...

    NTFE to Fat32 files in windows 11 issue

    Just to explain (not because I really feel the need to, but my wife is watching "The Crown" and some people might be interested). Whatever the op's problem is, it simply isn't the file system. The file system at the operating system level is something you rarely come into contact with. Not...

    NTFE to Fat32 files in windows 11 issue

    You are looking at FOLDERS not FILES, and as has been said, W11, W10, NTFS FAT32 has nothing to do with it. What might have happened is that hte default view has changed, but nothing has altered your underlying images or storage. Something like this article...
