I have arrived back home after a 2 week grist mill trip including the West Virginia IR/COLOR Mill Workshop! We had a great time and captured many new images and met lots of great photographers! All counted I visited 8 mills during this trip.

I seem to be falling more and more in LOVE with the Fuji X Pro 1 camera system as time goes by! Regardless of the negative comments online, the camera continues to impress me with EVERY attempt at a different type/style of photography I attempt with it. I rarely take out my large Canon equipment any more!

The Grist Mill GPS database project continues! Several months ago I started this project to build a GPX file of all the Grist Mills and Covered Bridges in the country. I have asked and continue to ask for help in this. If you know of any of these old mills or live near them so that you can provide GPS lat/longs for them please forward this info. So far I have almost 300 Mills in the GPX file which can be found in the download menu on the right side of this blog. There are 2 files, one for Mills and one for Bridges. Download them to your computer then you can download them directly into your GPS unit for your car!
Mark,
The Nik tools have always worked in Lightroom and Aperture. The installation package senses which apps you have installed and installs the correct version of the product, also will install 32bit version or 64bit version as required. When you download the product or upgrade, don’t forget to check not only OS but which host apps you have (LR, aperture, photoshop).
It has always worked this way, buddy!
Donald, yes that is true for all of them EXCEPT for HDR EFX Pro. That one particular tool would not work on the earlier versions of Lightroom and it required the 64 bit OS.
I have been running NIK HDR Efex Pro for a couple of years on 32-bit Windows Vista as a “stand-alone” program because it will not integrate with Photoshop Elements 7. I am now running it on my Windows 8 64-bit laptop and it does run much faster than on 32-bit Windows.
Larry, have you tried the new version yet? It is MUCH better!
Yes, in fact it was only last week that I finally got rid of the 32-bit versions of both LR and PS. I checked all of my plugins and all of them except one has released the 64-bit version. For that one, and I won’t name the provider, I will just have to do without for a while but keeping 2 versions updated is getting to be too much!!
Donald, boy do I EVER understand where you are comming from! It is really hard to keep up with OS versions then software on top of it all! Did you upgrade to Mountain Lion yet? I did and everything installed correctly for me… Lucky!
