Dog: "Really, Dad?!?"
Wonder why she took off so fast? She looks so cute!
She doesn't have it set accidentally on the A-Dep instead of manual? (Assuming the mode selector dial is similar to my t2i)
I use auto from time to time when I'm not quite happy with what I get on manual settings. More often than not it doesn't help and I go back to manual. And more often than not it's when I'm shooting in less than ideal light.
Oh, my! You are an artisan. And good photographer, too! Great detail on your model!
I remember those days! My son was the one in the outfield dancing instead if watching for the ball.
My favorite is your first pic.
Nice views of a place I want to return to one day. When we were there some Pueblo Indian children were running around in a part if the ruins we weren't allowed to explore - exercising their ancestral rights to the land. A fascinating place to explore.
Gorgeous! I love catching Michigan shoreline weeds against the sky!
BTW are you having problems with shore erosion up there? We're having park closures here due to Lake Michigan reclaiming some of the shoreline.
I'm going to beg to differ with your last point. Both of my grandmorhers worked. In 1920 my newly widowed maternal grandmother went back to teaching grade school to support her daughter. My paternal grandmother was the primary breadwinner of the family, and worked during most of my father's childhood as a telephone operator. It is a fallacy that women stayed home. For their generation there were also many WWI widows and Spanish flu widows. Those women had to work, too.

Depends whether or not you are using LR classic. If you move the images outside LR LR will not recognize them. Read Lightroom Queen, look at one if the many YouTube programmes
You beat me to it! As a veteran of a move last year, if you are using LR and then don't use it to move photo files to the new drive you will spend a lot of wasted time trying to match your catalogs to the original files.
I have hunting mittens I recently bought at Goodwill for $1.99. Sort of like gloves with the finger tips cut off and a mittentop attached that flips up to uncover the fingers. My fingers do get cold, but I can easily pull them back into the glove portion for extra warmth.
I'm terrible at remembering to keyword my photos, and there are times I regret that. In Lightroom it is so easy to build a Smart Collection to look for keywords so if I want to find that cute chipmunk photo I took last Spring I don't have to page through all my directories looking for it. Or if I want to compare photos of Cedar Lake taken at different times I can search on "cedar". No need to make subject directories for everything. I even add color keywords when appropriate so I can search for, say, "blue". And if I want to bring up every photo I took of my granddaughter Ashley over the years I can easily find them.
When I plugged my external drive into my new PC it assigned a different drive letter from what it was on my old computer. So Lightroom couldn't find my files until I had it locate the missing files and pointed it to the new drive.
