I’ll make another plug for Lightzone
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I downloaded Lightzone last night and first thing this morning was straight into playing. Like you say, the nearest thing to darkroom magic in digital. I'm a convert. I work by look rather than tech specs, so it will take a while to understand. And to find the crop mechanism.

Capture: Two Tone, in reply to Chris Waugh,
Your problems explain a lot of the problem I have. I've given up on raw and black and white this year because I can't get Irfanview or Windows Photo or Gimp (when I had it but didn't like the way it worked so deleted) to open the Nikon raw/nef files. I'm mostly going with open-source software on the laptop (which is much gruntier than the old PC so have been planning to use it for photos). So lightzone is my next move! If that doesn't work I'll have to save up for Lightroom or Photoshop.
Have you tried the Nikon Capture software? I don't want to invest all the time it takes me to learn new software if it only works on Nikon not other cameras.
And film: I've been looking at the old film cameras remembering that darkroom magic.

High Street yesterday by Alices/C4 looking to the Post Office tower in the Square (couldn’t resist this pic-trick). I like the activity in this scene: happenings everywhere: life, busyness, city-ness. Though the banners with the flowers are still up from February 2011.

Your Rangitoto is amazing: theatrical and sacrificial. Love it.

Now that's a good new word for some circs.

And on Kiwiblog and Whaleoil. That’s quite a lot of readers.
They are not the swing vote battleground: Kiwiblog and Slater commenters seem convinced of their views, at whichever end they sit. Likewise the left sites.

Hard News: Everybody's Machiavelli, in reply to Russell Brown,
'It’s easy to feel morally indignant about Banks’ apparent willingness to solicit donations for favours. Brown, unfortunately, has arguably committed a similar crime.'
Does McCarten know what the word “crime” means?
