Damn Photodog. I give you a compliment and receive an insult in return. These conversations are getting crossed up. That's why instead of continuing to post reply I just reply to the individual and quote just what they posted after a while. Sometimes comments are attributed to the wrong person. :thumbup:


I heartily apologize!!! I was totally oul of line and ask you to take me for the imbecile that I am. I'm a moron and have no excuses for being so.

I had no intention of being an A$$HOLE and offending you.

You're obviously a good guy & I'm an idiot!!!

Hey, while I gotcha on the line, I've got to share something with you. I just took custody of a Sony RX-1/B a couple of days ago. I'm still trying work through the manual (which SUCKS!!!). Anyway, I took a couple of shots still trying to figure out the menus but I think the camera has merit based on the Carl Zeiss f2.0 lens, the 24MP sensor and the Exmor chip.

The first shot was taken from outside my aprtment. The second was a cropped version of the first (These weren't post processed). The third was set to macro & I'll admit, I did juice it in PSE 10 for levels, brightness, sharpness and color saturation (Yeah, I cheated).

RX-1/B, ISO 640, f11.0 and 1/160" shutter.
RX-1/B, ISO 640, f11.0 and 1/160" shutter....

RX-1/B, ISO @ 640, f11.0 and 1/160" shutter (cropped).

Right, California. The land of fruits and nuts. No wonder you people blindly follow somebody to lead this country down the path of self-destruction. Maybe you should wake-up and realize that political correctness does nothing
more than bring a once great nation to ruination.

Obama is an A$$HOLE, pure and simple. His wife presents an Oscar to the producers who made "Argo", a true story about six Americans being held hostage in Iran while Jimmy Carter (another gutless wonder) refused to do anything to free 52 American hostages that were being held captive for 444 days because he didn't have the balls to OK a raid on the compound where they were being held. This moron figured that diplomacy would work instead of force. When the Iranians finally released the hostages after being held in captivity for over a year, Carter was given a Nobel Peace Prize.

What a joke!!!

Meanwhile, four Americans are being held hostage in the Benghazi embassy & Obama sits on his ass refusing to do anything to rescue them. This is the leader of the free world?

Give me a break!!!

One thing you folks need to realize is that no facts, no sense, and no evidence can penetrate arrogant weenie liberals who carry a photo of B.O. like a badge of honor like this prick with the tacky avatar 'dick'.
Best thing you can do is ignore him and hope he moves on to a forum where he can vent his stupidity, and ignorance with other fools. It's stunning to know there are people so utterly clueless who breathe our same air, and drive our streets.

I certainly agree with part of your post. If you don't like what I write and don't want to get into a discussion, don't read or reply to my posts. Fine with me. I didn't come here to be loved. If I wanted that, I would get a dog.

I have to laugh at your comments about my tacky avatar. The client, who came out from Iowa especially for the photo shoot, was delighted with it. He was even more delighted when the design appeared on a U.S. postage stamp!

Richard94611 I like your avatar. I collect train postage stamps and look at others that I like. What kind of stamp is it and can I still get one?

I don't know if they are still being sold, but if you wish to send me your mailing address I can certainly send you a letter with the stamp on it, free of charge. Then you can report back to the others that the design really is on a U.S. Postage stamp.

Did you use and pay Zazzle to have a stamp designed perhaps? 8-)

The English teacher in me cringes at your writing. Let me start by trying to put a snippet of your comment into literate English.

"Time is to precious to waste to dwell on to something
that has happen in the pass. . .

"to" should be "too." "happen" should be "happened."

"To waste to dwell on to something . . ." ? Heh ? Feh ! Try "to waste to dwell on something in the past . . " Sloppy writing is an indicator of sloppy thinking.

Now, the most important thing. In your utter ignorance, you state more or less that what happened in the past isn't important and that we should look to the future. (I should check your comment for your precise wording, but don't have the patience.) The philosopher Santayana made an astute statement that though famous clearly not hasn't trickled down into your confused brain. "Those who forget the past are destined to relive it."

I see you went to the same school as Obama. Can't stand
facts, so we end up changing the subject. And if by chance
you do find a way of changing the past, please inform us here
at UHH. I know for a fact Obama is trying his best, by trying
to do away with our Constitutional Rights. As for your "Quote"
" Those who forget the past are destined to relive it. "
How do I know that I am not reliving my past , if I have forgotten it and if I remember my past , why would I want to relive my past ? I'm sure there will be changes made to my
posting, but like texting, the words aren't always spelled
right, but most of the readers get the message.

No, actually it's not. Obama is an Islamic Muslim who got juiced through the system by the Richard Daley political machine when he ran for Senate as an Illinois representative. They were as corrupt (or more so) than the Carter and Clinton administrations.

For Christ's sake, this guy cannot or will not produce any factual credentials relating to his past but liberals like you let that blow past so we can become another pre-Iron Curtain Russia. Eventually even the Russians realized that socialism was a dead end street.

Hold political leaders responsible for their positions and maybe this country will get back on track.

Right now our unemployment is near double digit figures, we're shipping most of our jobs overseas and the economy still sucks after this A$$HOLE took office in 2008.

Good God, is this like the Wizard of OZ??? Does a house have to fall on you wake up and face reality?

Islamic fanantics flew planes into the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and tried to take out the White House until some patriots took over the plane. We lost more Americans than the attack on Pearl Harbor by Japan (which was also a sneak attack).

Now we have an Islamic Muslim in the Oval Office!!!
