You are looking at the entire house. It is extremely small and extremely charming.

Thanks to all for your comments.


I think he meant that you cropped the peak and left side of the house. I thought the same thing when I first saw it. The picture is great but it would be interesting to see it framed a bit differently - but then again maybe not...

keep your equipment in a zip-lock bag for ten minutes when you exit into the heat, so that it can warm up without moisture condensing on/in it. It is a spectacular country.


This is something I always forget to remember, if you know what I mean. It can be maddening when you spot that pair of scarlet macaws frolicking in the tree tops or the howlers are hanging over your head as you get in the car, and your lens and mirror are all fogged up. Missed many an opportunity...

I have been to CR on a number of occasions. I was there in December and January, and will be returning March 25th. I actually own many of the same lenses. I had been taking my 18-200 and my Tokina 11-16. I will shoot pictures in the thousands on some trips. With the 18-200 I had observed that I used the Tokina little enough that I now don't bother to bring it. It's usage/weight ratio is way too low to justify the inconvenience. That is a really bulky, heavy lens to lug around for so little usage. I have not brought it the past couple trips and have not missed it.

I agree with the recommendation for the macro if you are going to carry a second lens. Plenty of really incredible opportunities for a macro.

Pura vida!

Remember how there was the Know Nothing party way back when? Now we have the Believe Nothing party.


Actually I think it is the same party combined...

I think one of the main arguments they use, is that the flag is flying but there's no atmosphere. The reason that there's no atmosphere, is that there's not enough gravity to hold one down. And that's the same reason for the flag "flying".


Don't believe in gravity either.

Taking it a bit off topic but have you observed as I have that the man on the moon deniers are also the 9/11 conspiracy theorists, and deny Obama is a US citizen, and so on. It is just a general indication of how much credence we should give to such individuals and their beliefs.

I do not go to that third world cesspool Mexico anymore. Down there I feel more like a target than a "guest." Why go to mexico? I just drive through South Central Los Angeles and get the same nauseous feeling.


Oh, so it is not Mexico you hate, just all Mexicans whether they live in Mexico or here. Gotcha.

As a former policeman, here is the U.S. law. Public buildings are really not public. They are private for the use of the public. The rules thereby enacted by the managers of the buildings prevail. Just like the streets and sidewalks of a town are private for the use of the public. They are subject to the laws enacted for the town. Eg: behavior, parking, driving, etc.

Just know the law...


I'm glad I did not live in the town in which you were a policeman. Nothing worse than a policeman who just makes up the law which is what you have done here.

"Just know the law..." Great advice, you should follow it.

Two thoughts. 1) Your inability to communicate in English is due to the laziness of your culture as evidenced by your writing. I'll bet the English classes you attended taught you to write "because they are poor" or "because they're poor" but you chose to write "because they poor". Your failure to communicate weakens your argument. 2) The birth of a child is considered an "accident" in your culture because the baby momma is indiscriminate about who she sleeps with and the baby daddy fails to stick around to raise the child in a two parent household.

Oh, and you should save the "racist card", my comments are fact based not emotional in nature.

We'll save the racist card and play the ignorant dickwad card.

I think you are just trying to bait people into engaging you and your silly rants. You may be a master baiter elsewhere but I don't think your baiting will fly here.


That is a very gracious way of bowing out of answering a direct question you have the answer to. I am really curious to hear who you presume did it, but even more curious why you for some reason refuse to answer, and accuse me of baiting?

I do not know, but it sounds odd to me. I'm just sayin...

I clearly stated I am not qualified to give detailed answers but it is not up to me. It is up to the purveyors of the story to provide the details that are believable. The free fall speed is specious at best. Try thinking. It may be painful at first but you'll survive.


Bs you phony. You know who it is so tell us. You do not have all the answers you pretend to have and not know who. You are afraid to say it. Come on wimp.

It's not up to me to say who did it. I have my suspicions but it would take an international court of law to determine all the participants in the false flag operation. 9/11 was International in scope with intelligence agencies of at least three U.S. allies involved in the planning and execution of the attacks.

General Wesley Clark mentions some of those who benefited from the attacks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY2DKzastu8

The important thing is for the world to know the truth that it was not Muslims who attacked us on 9/11.

You wave that American flag on your avatar as thogh you are some sort of patriot! Balogna you phoney. Someobe who has spent his recent poor pathetic life building this sham of an argument ( believes he ) knows who did this. Don' t bs us and tell us who you believe did thiss you pussy.

Another pussy. You make strong allegations with no substance and plenty of inuendos. Make some real accusations. I accuse you of being a pussy, a liar, ignorant, a fraud. I could go on but you get the idea. Instead o fluff give us thereal answers.
