Oh how neat!!! I love Dickens! Wish we had something like that here, but I don't believe we're that cultured. :-D
Thanks, Dixiegirl -- where I grew up the only thing that was cultured was buttermilk.
:wink:

"A Christmas Carol" was set in London. So it's only fitting that it should be rainy and dreary.
Excellent point about the rain! It's gone now and once again sunny. Thanks for looking.

Great celebration...you captured it well. ;-)
Thanks for looking - all these folks in costume are volunteers and many of them have done this for years.

Facinating shots. Gosh, I was in Franklin last weekend and had no idea about this fun.
Regis......on the other side of Nashville
Hi Regis -- yes, there seems to be something going on every weekend here. A nice place to live.
Merry Christmas, all.
In my little town of Franklin, TN we have an annual Christmas celebration where many dress as they did during Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and it is called " A Dickens of a Christmas". It was rainy and dreary last weekend when this happened, but I hope you enjoy the pictures anyway.
Jacob Marley's ghost
Bob Cratchit's Family
Ebenezer Scrooge
Actual Franklin policemen
Great story and great that the picture was saved.

It is interesting to note .... all high end( pro and near pro) digital cameras use a CF card or a CF card and an SD card .... never 2 SD cards
I consider the D7000 a "pro and near pro camera" (as you call it,) and it has two SD cards.

I'm hoping one of you more computer savvy Hogs might be able to help me.
I'm getting frustrated that when I'm working with RAW files in CS6 my PC starts getting slower and slower until when I try to open a DNG file I get a notice saying there's not enough RAM. When I go back to the " file open" not all the thumbnails appear.
Now I know my setup isn't ideal, I have 3GB RAM and a dual core CPU 4300 @1.8 GHz.
Available RAM in Photoshop is 1659 MB and it's using 1576MB.
I have three scratch discs of 69,58 and 14 GB.
I regularly "Purge....all" but after working on about 5 or 6, 9 MB DNG files the trouble starts.
I'm thinking there must be a cache that's getting full because I have to exit CS6 and restart it before I can carry on.
Your advice will be greatly appreciated! Please don't just tell me to get a new box! I know it's slow but I can live with that for the mo' :) :) :)

Remember the multi-page discussion about the Canon Pro-1 rebate a week or so ago?
Just curious - can you use this debit card when purchasing on line via Adorama or B &H?

Do any of you remember this from the 1970's? It came in a clear plastic case, and you'd get the suggested exposure by sliding the black card.
Jerry -- boy, I sure do. I had totally forgotten this -- my Dad, who taught me the love of photography, always had one similar to this with him and his trusty Zeiss Ikon. Thanks for posting it.

GeneM -- thanks for the comment. It's nice to go to a place where it's hard to take a bad shot. :)
