This is one area where we are about to see some major changes. Until a couple of years ago, Headlights were only allowed to have "high" and "low," nothing in between. For years in Europe, they have had headlights that ran with highs on all the time, but with sensors to prevent putting too much light on cars ahead or coming from the other direction. Until recently, I had a car that had two rows of LEDs, 80 total in each light, and would selectively turn them off when approaching another vehicle. It was strange seeing a square zone of darkness around cars I was coming up on while the rest of the area with lit with my highs. Also, since they were sensor-controlled, the highs would not turn on during daytime. They did a lot of other cool stuff too, such as shining higher on the shoulder when they sensed a traffic sign, and lowering and widening the beam when they sensed fog. As it turns out, the law that now allows this had not been updated since 1967. A lot has changed in the automotive world since then.
For those that are interested, the flag code can be found here:

I've had two made so far and they're not super-large, each being 16x20. They are both landscape shots, one of Lake Tahoe and the other of the Golden Gate Bridge just before sunrise. I'm impressed by the richness of the color and think that they look better than canvas. It's been so long that I've forgotten what each of them cost, though I do remember that one was printed by a lab in San Diego and one by a lab in Florida. Give one a try, you'll like it!

Has anyone had any experience with sixtrout.com? Not about to find much experience anyone has had with this company. There web site is very flimsy and question how much thought went into their marketing of products or service.
Thanks for your comments.

It looks pretty sketchy to me. Any place that offers an $1,800 camera with a bunch of added accessories for $99.99 is questionable. Was this an ad on Facebook? Here's a review:

The real question is whether you want to wait for a larger-screen M1 iMac or go with the 24". Don't get another 27". Apple is quickly moving away from Intel CPUs and there are already features in the latest OS (Monterey) that don't work in Intel Macs. I would advise to go somewhere and see one of the 24" machines and decide whether the difference in screen size is that important. Hope this helps.
They used to have a professional negative film called Vericolor II. I don't remember what the ISO was, but it seems like it was higher than 25. Apparently people still sell it on eBay.
I went camping there a few years ago. It's a beautiful place!
It's a great place. I recommend it highly. It's a state park and kept in what they describe as a "suspended state of decay." It's near Mono Lake.
Honey Moley! I paid more than that just for the 14-24! Congratulations! Now take lots of beautiful photos. The 14-24 works particularly well for astrophotography.
I went to their site and one of the items in their support section addresses this. The bottom line is that the current app will not work under Catalina and they have no plans to update it with 64-bit support. They suggest that you upgrade to one of their pricier devices, which does/will have 64-bit compliance.

The '54 had a 6? I thought it had at least a 283 V-8. The current model has 700+ HP and can top out at 200+ MPH.
The '54 was a beaut though.
It didn't get a V8 until the 55 model year. Nice shot, though.
