That is a great idea. Send cash no new bills haha. Had a friend whose daughter almost sold her furniture to some scammer in Nigeria. She was arranging for the pick up of her furniture when we finally convinced her it was a scam. Plus if they had someone pick up the furniture now you would have thieves who were already at your house once. Who knows what the would have come back for. It was so hard to convince her it was a ripoff. I am amazed at just how gullible people can be.
Unfortunately that is so true. In the 70's I fell for those lottery scams of the Canadian Lottery. I found out still in the 70's that was illegal but I made the sucker list and I am still on it even though I have moved a lot. I have seen the progression of the Nigerian scam from mail to email, the countries have changed, the scam has not. To say that I am not trusting is putting it mildly. But I do try to keep up with how they present scams and warn people about them.

Various backdrops can be made by having a few colors and feet to spread color all over the drop cloth. This photo I took of my Barbie doll using a piece of paper and just slathered a few colors on the paper. But this was an experiment that I liked but it gave me ideas of how to use paint to make other kinds of backgrounds.

Hi, I found out that I can go to the manufacturers website and download the manuals of cameras I am interested in. It is better than buying so many cameras and it gives you a way to study the different features of the camera. cheaper too.

That is a beautiful photo and the window added just the touch it needed to be framed naturally.

I can see that the curtain windows were open and they were thin enough that you could have closed them and have ambient light coming through and you would not have had to much background light. As a first attempt you should be proud that your subject of affection was uncooperative. If she/he is in the same spot, try closing the curtains ans repeat the experiment again.

She is an adorable young lady and you did do her justice. This is really a nice photo of her.

A while back, I got a facebook friend request from a supposedly army soldier who was in Afghanistan. I asked why he wanted a friend request and he said that he liked my face. I friended him but did nothing to encourage him in any way. I am sure he was looking for a naive lady to hook up with and he tried me. That did not work and I am now not friends with him as he unfriended me. Too boring and not as naive as he thought. I like it that way. I could see right away what he was planning and I was not interested. If he really liked me for me, we would still be talking and being friends. That did not happen. If it looks to good to be true, it is.
