Jackie Connelly Food Photography Workshop - June 30th

Got this in my inbox on the weekend from the Food Bloggers of Canada...

Hello to our BC Members!


While we try to keep the email noise to a minimum, we wanted to make sure that all of you were aware that we are hosting a food photography workshop on June 30th in Vancouver. The number one thing we hear from all our members is that they wish they could improve their photography so we wanted to give you an opportunity to do so with a fabulous instructor.


We are hosting two sessions with professional food photographer Jackie Connelly at Sugar Studios in Vancouver:


The first will focus on hands on food photography with one on one instruction from Jackie. She’ll be showing you how to get the most out of your camera – be it point and shoot or a DSLR, how to cope with poor lighting and how to work with different types of foods.


The second will focus on the business side of food photography, including how to find clients (restaurants, magazines, stock imagery, on-line), prepare for a shoot, prepare estimates and invoicing and any other questions you may have.


You are welcome to attend either session or both sessions. For all the details, including times, ticket prices and what you need to bring, check out our website: http://www.foodbloggersofcanada.com/2012/05/june-food-photography-workshop-vancouver/


We will also be giving away gift baskets from Sharwood foods featuring some of their delicious curries and chutneys to two lucky attendees to the first workshop.


We would love to see you there and get to meet some of you!

ChatGPT Can Deliberately Lie to You. Yes, I have screenshots.

I was really shocked to discover that ChatGPT-4o "Plus" Plan can deliberately lie to you. Not just accidentally process data badly and come up with a bad conclusion. But lie to you because of: "Conversational Coherence" "Politeness Bias" "byproduct of how I'm designed to maintain conversation continuity, coherence, and repair" "create a false narrative to cover a logic failure" I've got screenshots but will provide the full transcript/context of the incident below. You can draw your own conclusions. The quoted items above are verbatim from ChatGPT's responses, so you can search to quickly go to the relevant sections if you prefer. NOTE: In the transcript below, I have put in RED selected text which I highlighted for ChatGPT to specifically address.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en...

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.
