Some folks have been calling Alkaline batteries “Alkaleaks” for years.

I've had excellent results with Powerx low discharge batteries by Maha that I've been getting from Thomas Distributing (https://www.thomasdistributing.com/AA-Low-Discharge-NiMH-Batteries.html).

Nice! It’s an interesting reminder of when architecture was interesting. :-)

Great capture. The focus and shallow depth of field make it.

Find a photo of the dog when it was healthy and help your boy to make a picture and message as a souvenir of a happy life. I did mine in verse. It helped me lot. My sympathies to you all - I know how tough it is.

Not sure my pic was attached. Here it is again. Glad you liked the idea.

Jim,
Nice poem, but I disagree with your theology. The Bible is silent on pets in heaven, but there are several verses in Isaiah that refer to animals with us in a newly recreated earth. Animals are innocent and free from being able to sin as they cannot know Good from Evil so this makes sense. I suspect our pets will be waiting for us. St Francis is said to have specifically believed animals have a place in heaven and based on their inability to sin, probably have a better chance than we who have the ability to know Good from Evil and can choose.

In Denver you would need to be careful to avoid the Addicts and needles under the bridges. :-(

We lost one of the best dogs we’ve ever had to bone cancer last summer. We miss him, but we gave him 7 years of a great life after we rescued him...and he gave us the last 7 years of his life. Do I miss him? Yes, but he was better off as a result of our rescuing him, and our lives were enriched by his being part of our lives. Celebrate the life!

I’ve been chased out of LBI by Patrol cars, dune buggies and airplanes. How was a high school kid supposed to have known it was closed when the weather and the water were fine?

Thank you all for looking. He’s a big puppy and a goof ball. At 8 months old he knows he’s not supposed to jump up, but the other day he came up behind me and put his paws on my shoulders. When I turned around he had a goofy smile on his face as if to say ‘see what I can do!’ Puppies!

There is also a cemetery i think in the southern part of Queens that offers an interesting foreground contrasting the headstones with the high rises of Manhattan. Another interesting angle is from the Staten Island Ferry. It has been almost 50 years since I lived in NYC, so things ‘might’ have changed a smidge. ;-)

My Great Pyrenees puppy being a puppy (and helping me check to see how well the new D850 can follow a moving subject) when he was an immature 7 month old. That was last month, now he's a more mature crazy 8 month old puppy. ;-)

As others have said, there are too many photos of different types (Wildlife, Landscapes, Concerts, Portraits, Architectural) to select one, so I'm posting four that are my favorites from a charity concert to benefit T.A.P.S. (www.taps.org) that benefits military families that have suffered the loss of a loved one. These performers and others donated their time and talent to raise a bundle of money for a worthy charity.

Thanks for your idea. I read it in a previous post on a different thread and took some heavy plastic bags with me on a trip to the Colorado mountains where I was shooting night skies in sub-zero weather. Worked great! 👍

In the 35mm film days that was a potential problem in dry climates if you advanced the film too quickly or if you rewound the film too quickly. I never had that problem on the east coast, but I discovered it in Colorado (and we’re humid compared to parts of Arizona, Utah, and Nevada).
