The plane toom off and,within se c.f. onds crashed into a field outside of town where all the band members including the pilot was killed.

This has as much to do with photography as the topics "Need a Good Laugh" or "Men are Just Happy People". If you can't be positive go back to Twitter or Face Book

Sorry, but this is in the wrong forum. It properly belongs in the "General Chit-Chat" section and not in this one.

At this time the post is in Upcoming Topics. It is my understanding the moderators make the decision on where it belongs.

You put this in the Main Photography category. This has nothing to do with photography. Next Time put it i General chit chat. You can call me negative if you want, but you are the one who posted that story in the wrong category. Also a little spell checking would not hurt. Just saying

Your understanding is incorrect. You have to choose the correct category in the pull down menu when you post.

Clearly you didn't check your facts. I didn't post the original. I was simply defending the person who did. Your snarky reply with no explanation as to why this upset you so resulted in my response. If you read the rules for UHH the first one is "Be Polite".

These glasses are near the crash sight. If you are ever in the Clear Lake area, it is worth your time.

And it will be moved.

This is not about photography.

As to the subject. One can argue that the music dies every day...

But according to you that is a photographic subject.

That is where it is when I opened up my daily UHH newsletter. I see it in the General Chit-chat section. Perhaps it was moved.

Today is February 2. It does not, however, negate your point. It was a terrible loss to the music world.
