Your thoughts or opinions on using Q-tips to clean lenses.
Thank you.


I use a Lens Pen. They have three one for filters one for lenses and a small one for view finder. The difference between lens and filter one is the curve on the pad. Seems to work very well in my opinion and pretty inexpensive about 15.00 for all three

The local oak trees have interesting shapes and gnarly branches. I got a few shots of some favorites under different conditions. The buds are quickly turning into leaves on many of these trees now, and soon the branches will be hidden.

I have centered these intentionally.

I'm always open to suggestions.

I love that first one and how you see the shadows in the grass. Would love to see that pic with a young girl in the scene. I am jealous of your having such an amazing subject so near.

Gasaholic an Obsession or a Dream. Narrated by Morgan Freeman.

if you are looking for a purpose in being alive all you need to do is something genuinely kind. Kindness, caring, helping others, all are good reasons for living. I don't think you need to believe in a supreme being or god/creator or have religious beliefs to find purpose.

Moral development doesn't require adherence to a religion it requires compassion and listening to your inner self to know right from wrong...that is your purpose...to live a joyful kind compassionate life.


One of the most intelligent statements I have ever read.

It amazes me that people often try to correct the names of others who have perfectly fine names, as is. I used to go into a Starbucks to get coffee and I would always tell the barista my name, saying the name, Dennis, and pointing out it is with 2 N's. Even doing that the barista would commonly misspell the name using one N. I stopped going to that Starbucks after one of their baristas corrected me and said most people spelled the name, Dennis, as Denis. I guess they were more interested in correcting my name than getting my money.

On the other hand, I have a different problem: My wife died in '06 so I have no complaints at all from her - dammit. Truthfully, she was not a complainer, maybe because we both grew up in the Great Depression.


People that lived through the Great Depression always amaze me at how little they complain. Most are just very grateful for what they have even if it so little. I am jealous of their ability to do that. I hope she is resting easy now...Someday maybe you could do a post about that time with your wife I for one would find it an invaluable experience.
I never met either of my grandfathers they both died in their forties during the depression. Ii just know my one grandfather was a banker before the depression and ended up dying from a heart attack driving a truck to support the eight kids.

A Colorectal Surgeon who had become fed up with malpractice insurance and HMO paperwork decided to give up practicing medicine.

Hoping to try another career where skillful hands would be beneficial, he decided to become a mechanic.

He went to the local technical college, signed up for evening classes, attended diligently, and learned all he could.

Thank you just sprayed soda all over ipad. Hahahaha whew that was funny.

When the time for the practical exam approached, the former "Asshole Doctor" prepared carefully for weeks and completed the exam with tremendous skill. When the results came back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained a score of 150%. Fearing an error, he called the instructor, saying, "I don't want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonder if there is an error in the grade."

The instructor said, "During the exam, you took the engine apart perfectly which was worth 50% of the total mark."

"You put the engine back together again perfectly, which is also worth 50% of the mark."

After a pause, the instructor added, "I gave you an extra 50% because in my entire career I've never seen it all done through the tailpipe!"

Absolutely stunning. I just bought a used version of that lens. I can only hope I get it to function as well as you. Dammit I downloaded one and almost tried to feed it!

Hello everyone. The Herring run is still on and there are still lots of wildlife around to take pictures of. Here are a few Eagle shots from yesterday. Hope you enjoy them.


Whew that third eagle you can almost feel the movement of him gliding looking for lunch. Some manufacturer could use that pic as a model for a beautiful porcelain statue. Very jealous of your ability and access to such subjects.
