Oh my! Your photos sure make me/us want to return. We've driven (from PA), RV'd, and flown to WDW and each time it was a visual treat being there! On our first visit, the admission was $14.00/day - can you believe that? Took literally hundreds of photos each time.

Favorite venture was a photographic tour lead by a Disney staff photographer who led the group into places where the regular "guests" were not permitted to go. We were shown shots to take that you'd never think of. One was was of Cinderella's fountain just outside her castle where if you crouched down and shot up toward her statue you could see the "crown" on the wall behind was positioned perfectly on her head. Each time we visit I make sure to shoot it again.

Do you know if that tour is still offered? It was worth every dollar it cost - and that was in addition to the entrance fee.

Just checked the WDW site. Though the photographic tour is not specifically mentioned, a host of others is:

Marc Schultz article on why he switched from Canon to Sony then back to Canon:

Nicely done. If my 80 yr old memory is still intact, MOPARS went hemi - '51 Chrysler (Fire Power), '52 DeSoto (Fire Dome), '53 Dodge (Red Ram), '66 Plymouth. So, how many of those marques are still in production? "Oh, how the mighty have fallen." Anyone remember MOPAR's "Fluid Drive?"

Right O! Shades of Henry's Model T's: All had inline 6 cylinder power ("Blue Flame" engine, I think.) All had, perish the thought, automatic transmissions - Powerglide, and 3 side draft carbs. Went to high school with the son of the local Chevy dealer. He drove the first 'Vette in the area, rolled and demolished it 2 weeks after first driving it. Sad, sad, sad.

"Hedgehogs, the eagle has landed!" Really great shots.

I've been using refillable and single use cartridges from https://www.ccs-digital.com ink for my Epsons for 3 years. I would assume (there's THAT word, again!) his inks for Canon would be equally good. Absolutely no problems. The owner, Izzy, is knowledgeable, honest, and reliable. Also, there is a considerable amount of additional ink/printer related information on his site. A monthly newsletter is informative and chatty.

"Try it, you'll like it."

Au contrarie! Looks more like a Golden Delicious!

For me - I like the shot - but wonder what the main subject was----

Thanks for your input. I appreciate it.

FWIW:
I know this applies to Epson ink jets. Can't speak to other brands.

The advice i've gleaned from various 3rd party ink suppliers. and have followed with success: When using other than OEM cartridges, if your Epson is working OK, do not update the firmware. Printer manufacturers ofttimes issue firmware updates that don't specifically list all the modifications, that makes the use of 3rd party cartridges next to impossible.

HTH.

I recently switched from Tirerack to Discount Tire Direct - a lot cheaper.[/quote]


If you have one close, try COSTCO. Been buying all our tires there for a buncha years - friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating. (disclaimer - Not associated with COSTCO other than periodically leaving $$$ there.)

So, the Artisan 1430 is back on line, working properly. It took less than 30 seconds to reset the waste ink counters and I was off to the races! Not a commercial, just an endorsement. http://www.2manuals.com/.

If memory serves me correctly, a fair number of the Mitchells did not make it back and either ditched in the ocean or crash landed in Chiang Kai Kai-shek.s China.
