On the batch-upload of images, Lightroom's conversion and compression to JPEG seems to have added a slight yellow cast to the images, which I am correcting. I expected there to be some color information lost due to the JPEG compression but I didn't think it would alter the white balance.

Too much traffic for a good clean pass. Ill come down your way and we can shoot some pics.

Yes thats the boat. He had his hands full for sure. I coudnt tell what it was when I saw him it was going rub rail to rub rail :-)

Would love to run with some other little boats some time. Tell him to come to River Ranch.

When went to the Silver River on Sunday and was going up current at a fast idle and ran square into a big stump. Picked up the whole back of the boat. Didnt leave a mark on anything. Must have hit the skeg square and popped the prop right up over it. Lucky.

We are planning to goto river ranch i dont know if he will bring the little boat or his 18ft tunnel but probably the little one. Hes learning to drive it.....that was the most seat time he has had in it.

Yeah that area we were all in was very busy, and with all of the shadows from the high treeline, it's really a difficult location for photos. I will be at the River Ranch for sure though. Maybe we can shoot photos there?

It was great seeing you Chris; I'm sorry we didn't get more time to talk. Hopefully we can catch up at the River Ranch.
