Well done! And you could probably post this in the main photo section, since there's not much NSFW to it.

Very cool. It's not clear to me, though: The bicycle is on a trailer being towed by the "Autocycle?" There are actually TWO modes of transportation shown in your photographs?

An interesting, if totally inaccurate depiction of Jesus's first miracle. From the Book of John 2:6-10 (NIV):

6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.[b]

7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.

8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”

They did so,

9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside

10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

[b] Or from about 75 to about 115 liters

I agree. The interesting thing about colorizing is that it doesn't try to fake the image, but merely adds a sense of natural color. I'm not describing my meaning well, but having watched colorized movies, it's quite apparent that they weren't shot in color, but the rendering of it adds nuance that isn't present in the original.

Extremely well done. The lighting is perfect!

The Styx?

Great photo of a classic car! Trivia note for those not familiar with Morgan automobiles: The frame of a Morgan is made mostly from wood. Ash, in fact. The chassis is metal (now aluminum, to save weight), but pretty much every Morgan is hand made.

The things we do for our art! Well done.

One learns new things every day. I saw your photo of the Daimler, and thought to myself, "British?" Yep. Although the cars that roll off the assembly line near Stuttgart, Germany are often known as "Daimler-Benz" or "Mercedes-Benz," Daimler was the forerunner of the British Jaguar, out of Coventry. The source of this information comes straight from Mercedes!

Thank you. I received an invitation to attend, but prior commitments prevented me from doing so. I appreciate your taking my place.

Every monitor I've connected to my various Macs is via a USB-to-HDMI adaptor. I have both USB-C and USB-A (what I presume you are calling USB-2). So, I agree with @Manglesphoto that the likely suspect is the cable. There ARE different types and qualities of cable, so I'd check there.

Just guessing here, but CCleaner has a free version. It's been around for decades, and is a pretty good tool for what it does. It started life as "Crap Cleaner," but then wiser heads prevailed.

Keep in mind that "free" doesn't always mean "best."

I may be in the minority, but I have begun to dislike storing my images in the cloud. If for no other reason than the capricious nature of the cloud owners. Simply put, cloud is just someone else's storage. What they do with it and who they share it with is out of my control. Disk storage these days is inexpensive and quite reliable; I have two four terabyte external drives that each are barely larger than a deck of cards. One can also now buy 1Tb thumb drives that are actually true in size to one's thumb. Why pay someone else? Over time, you save money (and peace of mind) by storing your photos locally.

My rule of thumb, that has worked for me for over 40 years is: Figure out how much RAM you need. Then double it.

Agreed.
