If as trump believes, he won the 2020 e******n, then he wouldn't be able to serve a 3rd term.

By the way, trump has been trying to run a shadow presidency. Just look at the world leaders he's been in contact with since noon on January 20, 2021!


Hillary also thought that she won the e******n and that the presidency was stolen from her.

Try 9.6 -- for 5 minutes. Alaska 1964! I was there! Very scary to see the ground have 6ft rollers just like the ocean!


That would be absolutely terrifying.

As opposed to trump taking advised by or taking orders from Putin or other enemies of the United States?

I don't know about you, but I'd much rather see a POTUS be advised by a previous POTUS of either party who understands and follows the US Constitution and the rule of law, rather than by an adversary or enemy of the United States.

And the Trump/Russian conspiracy theory continues …..

My first experience with an earthquake was in Millington, TN in the mid 70’s. Found out that the Mississippi river is part of the New Madrid Seismic Zone which is the most active fault zone in the USA. Second, and subsequent experiences were in San Jose, CA in the ‘80s (San Andreas Fault) - thankfully no injuries to family or friends. One quake was a roller (like a ripple in a lake) and it popped a blimp hangar door off that fell on a couple of vehicles and flattened them.


Those blimp hangers had to be at Moffet Field, right?

The failure is your lack of comprehension. White balance is never immaterial. How often do you change the white balance when editing a raw file? I’m guessing rarely. I shoot raw and rarely need to change white balance. That’s because when you shoot raw whatever WB setting you have is saved with the metadata and when the image is displayed in the editor that’s the color temperature you see. Yes, you have a lot of leeway when adjusting the WB in raw, but when color accuracy is important you better have a pretty good idea what the actual color temperature of the lighting was.

Unless you carry a Kelvin meter with you when you’re taking the photo, you have absolutely no idea what the light is really like. Many years ago, when I was shooting models on the runway, I used a colorimeter to measure the Kelvin temperature because there was no way of determining using the eyeball. That was in the film days when you had to get it right in the camera..

He claims to have won the last e******n, so isn't he disqualified as a candidate?


For the same reason that Obama ran for a third term. The difference is that Obama won.

I don't buy it because in my opinion they are impressive and useless.


“…..they are impressive and useless.” Really? Usually things that are impressive aren’t useless.

Admittedly, I am a bit frustrated with a part of my photography. While wildlife photography, and now my work with the squirrels, will always be my passion, I want to continue to regain some of the things I once was halfway decent at, and one of them was flowers. Unfortunately, the current lens (Sigma 150-600mm) isn't exactly the best lens to do that. I have tried photographing some flowers, but I am never really satisfied with any. Plus, lately, I seem to have nothing but windy days! Sadly, all my other lenses won't keep up with the new camera. Currently trying to decide on my next lens with a tight budget!

The first image is from my camera and not my best, but it's a start. The rest are from my recently purchased iPhone. Yes, I know there is a smartphone section, but I didn't want to post it there as my first image was taken with my camera. I can do the basics with this phone, but it has a lot of capabilities that I have yet to learn, as the photos will show! While in the grocery store, I decided to try a few shots in their floral area. No wind to battle there! Beautiful flowers, but crummy light, plus I had to do them quickly. So keep this in mind if you would, as you look! They are far from perfect, but I needed to try, to explore.

Once I finally get another editing program besides Topaz, I'd like to experiment with flower shots.

So, I thought I would share. Open to suggestions and constructive feedback

Something different for me!

As always I hope you enjoy!

I’m sure that it does but there are so fewer of them.

When all else fails resort to insults. Good for you. Well done.

I have a Canon 5D Mark ii with the 24-105L lens and wonder if it makes sense to get a 2X extender for my trip to Spain. I also have an older Canon 75-300 lens but don't want to carry both. Concerned about quality with the extender and also whether a good one exists that fits my camera. (Thanks, Canon...) Also considered a used Canon 55-200, but Rockwell said that my camera couldn't handle the color problems.
Appreciate your help and snark,
Bill from Somerville MA (long time lurker)

The 24-105mm lens cannot be used with an extender. The Canon extender protrudes into the rear of the lens and will not physically mount to the 24-105.
