I was able to get inside this one this past summer.

Pat, I learned this AM that test was made using compressed air.
I'm looking forward to seeing it actually steamed up

Perhaps someone can help me with a new Photoshop feature, specifically the new Object Selection Tool. The link listed leads to a page that says the new tool can be found with the Quick Selection and Magic Wand tools. I've updated, and that advice does not work. Is there something I have to set up? It says version 21.0.0.
You post prompted me to see if it was on my new V21. It wasn't so, I pulled up the tools menu (Look for 3 dots ... ) and it was on there. I selected it and dragged it to the magic wand location. It's installed but not where you go to look for it.

I am just back from a trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway to capture some of the Fall color. We apparently were about a week too early for the peak but there were some nice shots. Keep in mind that I am 78 years old and cannot handle the hiking trails, so all were from near the overlooks. We started from Asheville NC and traveled to Roanoke VA. The last shot is the view from the rear porch of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home just outside Charlottesville VA
Very nice! Your 2nd photo puts me in mind of the bristle cone pine that has been photographed probably thousands of times. Only its about 3000 miles away in California.
My wife and I had wanted to make the run down to the BRP this fall but, the best laid plans and all that.
Thank you for posting those. We can at least visit vicariously.

Except for the flying things with stingers, I'm envious
It's getting to far along toward winter but I've been sitting out in the evening enjoying a libation (and an occasional cigar) and watching the locals wander by. The bears, not that often, but enough to be a nuisance as they seem to know which day of the week is garbage day. The bees aren't really any trouble at all. We sit about 5 feet away from some of the plants and they're constantly buzzing around. Once you get use to that you don't pay them any attention.Nov 5, 2019 11:22:17 #

Very appealing sense of serenity and quiet. Do you have deer or turkeys or any other critters?

Deer, turkey, fox, raccoon, opossum, skunk, chipmunk, mice, snake, toad, flying things with stingers, hawk and eagle.
Oh, one more BEAR

Can’t get around much anymore but once in a while an opportunity comes to me. I saw this one recent morning as I nursed my 1st cup of coffee.

Adobe MAX, the annual Adobefest, always brings updates. It started today. I checked my CC app and there are lots including Photoshop, Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Rush, Premier Pro, After Effect, Bridge, etc.
If it is like previous mass updates, servers may be a little slow.
If you are among the curious try a Google for "What's new in Lightroom Classic CC" and "What's new in Photoshop CC". I got hits for both and the reading is entertaining.

The only "rule" in photography is "always carry a camera". All the other so called rules are guidelines. Useful but guidelines none the less.
Preeee........cisely!
There is an image posted recently here at UHH that seemingly violates several composition "rules" yet it is a wonderful photo.

Interesting lens.
Once the hysteria is over it will likely not be in constant demand.
Currently I am happy with my 58mm f1.2.

It won't work on your camera ether.

Jim that is really NICE! Great result.
One caveat, lately in every portrait I see of a woman, they have a very stern almost angry or aggressive look. It seems Ashlie is out of step. She's smiling! (Thank the Lord!)
