Pounder said nothing about the President being shot... you are reading what you want to read.

Shoot'em is short for shoot them, not shoot him. The President does not need amnesty .


He needs deporting …

You said all. If that's not what you mean, OK. I won't pretend to know your thoughts or hold you to a mis statement if that is what it was. But I posted in good faith based on your post.


All, as in the list of things that were mentioned in the prior post.

FDIC, EPA, Social Security, Social Services and any type of insurance ….

There it is, copied and pasted. Did I rewrite it?


No.. Just took it out of context.

Government has a purpose. However, it has gone places where it does not belong.

Yep - you're absolutely right. My concern is how long it might run as Apple releases new upgrades, but I would guess I have a few years before that becomes a problem. I'm anxious to see what Photos has to offer and if it's a truly viable alternative to Aperture.


A program will not stop running just because there will not be any more upgrades.

According to your previous post you believe any government control is wrong. Your words not mine. What do you think our air would be like without any regulation? Can you say China?


Are you mis-reading what I wrote, or re-writing it ??

Todays Republican party supports the EPA? Sure they do.

I suggest you read the post immediately preceding this one. I'm sure he didn't mean to but I think he makes my point.


No one supports the out of control version of it except for the libs that are feeding off of it.

So, these things that you want to claim for Republicans, are you claiming that today's Republican party would support them?


All of these things you speak of and more are not the responsibility of the government and it has no business being involved. It has totally overstepped the boundaries of law and is now uncontrollable.

Thanks for the info! I'm still waiting to see what Apple Photos might have to offer, but have briefly looked at Lightroom in case Photos just doesn't cut it. Still having a hard time with the fact that Apple decided to ditch Aperture.


Apple is not ditching it, just no longer upgrading it.
And as I mentioned earlier, Photos will only run on Yosemite.

All you can do is take them as they are.

As an American Legion photographer, at military funerals I tend to take candid shots from a strategic position just outside of the center of attention. I feel that a funeral is a sacred ceremony and I don't like to draw attention to myself.

If staged group shots are requested afterward, I tend to lead people to a place where I can take wide shots using trees as a back drop and keep about 30% of them in the picture so the people are part of the scene. I let the recipient of the photo decide if they want to edit and crop it differently.

I fully intend to stay with Aperture. It won't just stop working just because Apple stopped upgrading.

Photos will only run on Yosemite platform.

Hi Patty. I too was having the same dilemma as you, and just purchased a used 580EX on ebay that was in like new condition for $200.00. The best money I have ever spent. My images are now coming out wonderfully. Good luck.


Great choice !!
Just be sure to carry lots of extra batteries.
Also get a flash bracket to get the speedlite off of the camera.

Capitalism can only survive when there is a powerful nanny state to build the infrastructure, educate the work force, enforce private property laws, regulate and stabilize the boom and bust cycles of the financial markets, and redistribute the wealth that capitalism tends to aggregate into fewer and fewer hands at the top, depressing demand. Free market fanatics claim that if we can just eliminate the government and get it out of the way, capitalist utopia will finally be realized. But history shows that reality is the opposite. Capitalism quickly destroys itself without government to prop it up and serve all of those critical functions that the free market is not capable of handling.

Government does not and cannot ever create anything.
Everything it possesses was taken from someone. Government has a role in peoples life as it was designed by people who knew what an unruly bunch of people can do.
The Constitution was written to keep government under the control of the people. It spells out clearly what it cannot do.
However, over time, the progressives have changed the definition of certain terms to worm it's way through the boundaries of the law. They created more bills that are written in a way that most politicians weren't able to read for themselves, which is a violation in itself. Things got so distorted that today the bills are thousands of pages long with riders and attachments that have nothing to do with the original bill that are voted on by people that have no idea what is in it and rely on what they are told by the creators what they say. And we know how forthcoming that can be. (remember Joe Wilson anyone?)

We now have a government that is so whacked out that the people no longer have control of it, but are now controlled by it. And a 'president' that is getting away with creating whatever laws he wants and ignoring the ones he doesn't like.

Are you happy living under a dictatorship ??

Because I do a LOT of different types of photography, sometimes taking 1000 images in a few hours and I think BBF is a little more tiring than shutter.


Is your drive mode set to AI Focus?
