You should win an award of some kind for being the first forum poster to not spell that phrase "baited" ... however appropriate the alternative may sometimes be. :-) |
In my case I am such a piss-poor speller, I often spend lots of time with dictionary’s. |

On the way down as I knew it would be but it was fun while it lasted because the weekend voters are out.

I need a couple opinions. I posted it in this thread ... link, I don't know why I didn't just post it here since it will probably be the only response I get. LOL! |

Paul, that was hilarious. Going in email to my daughter, who sent me the toilet-cleaning instructions.
BTW, I was out of town last week and got several options for my FS entry. It's nice to have something other thsn DC on fil ... errr ... pixels. |

Yes, Siamese are very vocal, and if my 10 year old one is a example, changes little with time. |

For Alan:
More later. I'm stuck reading a book I started on the train on the way home.
Additional observations about Paris - one really needs to take like a month, get a small cheap apartment, and just wander about. Three and a half days, with one of those lost to a headache, is really limiting. While it is indeed quite a biggish city,
it is pretty easy to get around. Like I said, metros are everywhere and very easy to use. Definitely a place that should be on everyone's bucket list, and one I'd like to go back to. While I have truly enjoyed every place I have been so far, this is one place that is on the "must go back to" list, for sure.
A few more - additional information for some is included in the photographer comments.

Lily looked at the pictures and says it's a very distant relative of hers, and yes, supposed to have a voice like a foghorn. She says 'Hahhhwoh'. :-) |

Okay,
A week ago I said I was coming back...
Then my internet went down for a week. Funny how that happens when you don't pay it but it was either pay my bill for feed the dogs and the three puppies my room mate and I are fostering.
Internets back up now so I'm coming back... again.
I'm heading into berkeley tomorrow to shoot.
Chris. |

Yeah I'm going to get my membership back too so at I can suck at everything and not just open challenges! |

Ambitious sucking! Yay!
Now, 3,8 may not seem much of a score, but my image is validated.
Sing that on a mountain... |

It went back above 6 for a little while and then some more last minute voters showed up but I'm still very pleased with the results.

I've been very busy working on the video from Alaska, but we snuck in a family reunion in Michigan. So ... I thought I'd bore ya'all with some pics from the reunion:

Check it - 4 browns in the last ten, 3 next to brown and one that's two points off. Maestro! |

At the risk of sounding ignorant what does "seems out of focus or too focused" mean? |

Tried doing some "planets" while wandering about the grounds at the Louvre - didn't turn out very well, but I did get a couple of nice panos out of the deal!
