Yes, I live in a rural area, 24 miles from the FedEx depot. But, I regularly get shipments from them and UPS with no problems.

I would not have been so upset except for the expectations created by their saying it would be delivered that day. Then the misrepresentations about the delivery. There is really no place on FedEx's website where you can file a complaint. I finally found a way around that and filed one. They told me I would hear back from it "soon." I'm still waiting on that response.

Guess I wont be buying from them any more.

One more FedEx complaint. Ordered a lens from B&H last Wednesday. 2 day shipping. Sure enough on Friday it was on the FedEx truck out for delivery. Wonderful. It didn't come and they posted late afternoon that I had requested a later delivery (I didn't). Sure enough, Saturday morning it was on the truck out for delivery. Didn't get delivered. I started calling customer service. Got nowhere. Office was closed, so they couldn't contact anyone. Got to a supervisor who filed a complaint for me. Now shows scheduled for delivery Monday. Didn't come. They now show that they tried to deliver but no one was home to accept delivery. (No requirement for signature). I'm back on phone to customer service??? and they now tell me they will check it out and I will get a call that night. I got no call. This morning again listed as on truck out for delivery. I finally got a number for the local office but got shifted back to customer service???. Called back to local and got a promise of a call from Manager. She called back about 12:30, but said she really wasn't in charge of the drivers. She couldn't tell me who was or who I could complain to. She did keep me on hold for about 30 minutes & finally assured my the package would be delivered today.
Lo and behold, the package was delivered at 1:08 p.m. Driver wasted no time getting away before I could talk to him/her.
BTW, the lens is great. Sharp pictures. Looks brand new. Thanks to B&H, but from now on when ordering online, I will know who they will ship with before I place the order. Second problem with FedEx and don't have the patience or enough blood pressure medicine for any more of them.

We travel frequently with external hard drive (SSD) and have had no problems. I just pack them between some clothes so that they are cushioned.

I would take it and I'm only 75.

Love the Buck sticking his tongue out at you. That is a great shot.

Remember, also, that the beautiful haze you like around the moon is moisture in the atmosphere which will hinder getting really sharp detailed photos.

Thanks to all of you. I'm old, but still learning.

Thanks, Steve. I guess I need a lot of practice with the clone tool. Your edit was exactly what I needed.

Unfortunately, preventive measures are too late, pictures already taken. Just trying to get rid of the reflections.

The lion is superb.

I have a number of photos taken from a bus which have window reflection. I use Affinity Photo to edit. Is there a way to eliminate the reflection? I have been successful with Inpainting Brush Tool is some instances where the background is consistent, but where the background is varied success has been limited. I will attach a sample.

I would suggest going to some practices before going to the actual game. Practice on practices.

Thanks. I appreciate your efforts to help.
