Didn't realize how few times I had the camera out this year. This made picking from a little over 400 shots pretty slim.
Here's a few from some unfinished projects.

I think I'm going crazy. I just posted this under Pats post and could not find it under this post so I posted it again. Now there's a duplicate post on two different posts. Sorry for all the posts.

EMS Photo

Make sure that it's a U.S. model and not Gray Market. Some manufactures will NOT fix or warranty a non-US camera.

Looked up EMS Photo (Florida) and they want e-mail & other information to look at their website. Couldn't even look at the about page.

Where is St. Louis, I live in Oakville South Country.

Eliminate this general chit chat forum

How about eliminating the general non-photography chit chat forum? It has absolutely no relevance here. Th3 dialogue spirals into nonsense pretty fast. Me, I’m looking for photography insights here.

If you think this is bad go to the Attic section

Save Us Photographers From All These Subscriptions

Ya'll seem to disagree about a monthly subscription vs paid-up software. So here's how I Handle the monthly fee that Adobe charges for the LR & PS. It's really quit simple ... every time my wife & I go to dinner I order 1 less cocktail that I normally drink. That's 4 drinks a month.
At $7 dollars a drink that equals $28. I saved $18 plus LR & PS is free. Anything else cost to much.
