If your columns really represented your best thoughts then you would probably need somebody to feed and wipe you. I'm sure things somehow seem logical and truthful in your head, but do they ever come out sounding like irrational hogwash on paper!

A lot of folks will "see" a picture of (ie) two kids (grandchildren?) on the wooden porch.I'll see <i>that geometrically irregular death trap of a slightly tilted granite step architecture, just WAITING for a thin layer of snow and ice</i>. But the exposure, in sunlight was great!<br />(I have one of those steps, in New England, too. A bit WORSE actually)<br />That amusing op-art "oval"? I can only focus on "THIS is what you GET for expecting computers to visually <i>interpret</i> humanity adulterated concepts." (Probably an early "glitchy" Hewlett Packard CNC <i>plotter</i> that does EXACTLY what it was told to do.) <br />CaptDMOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-59000133399066936022017-07-10T14:59:32.590-04:002017-07-10T14:59:32.590-04:00Tom:

During this time frame and after retirement, I worked for two different studios in MA. Still, have my Canon 1DX with me and shoot frequently. Like you, I'm rather tough on myself, but once in a while, there's a shooting star.Uber_Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06419709528493883528noreply@blogger.com
