I upgraded from Windows 7 to 10. Believe me, I was scared to death. I let Windows install all the upgrades prior to actually doing the upgrade. When I got the nerve up, I hit the button and it did it all by its self. I did have to reboot when it was finished. All my files, programs, everything, was there where I'd left it. My laptop was a different story. It was Windows 8. Upgrading to Window 8.1 was a nightmare. But finally it did and then was able to upgrade to 10. I use Classic Shell to make my start menu look like 7 on my laptop because I couldn't find anything. Many of my programs had to be reloaded on my laptop. Why, I don't know. But all is well, now

I have 3 external hard drives and Carbonite. Worth the additional expense. My computer crashed and I had three days of shooting not yet backed up to my hard drives. All were backed up on Carbonite. Saved my bacon.

Harvey, you are only a hop, skip and jump over the hill. Take a road trip and bring your fishing gear. The Kokanee are making their spawning run up Taylor Creek now. I was up there hoping to get bear photos, but they weren't around...too many tourists, lol. As for Genoa shots, mine are pretty outdated as they have been renovating the area. It's updated and looking very nice. Come see for yourself.

Thank you, fosgood11 for the 3 thumbs up.

Thank you, Jim.

Lol, sometimes the lens is too long...sometimes not long enough....

Thank you,Vicksart,I have a Canon 7D and 100-400mm thatI use. Love shooting wildlife.

Thanks, Jan.

These are absolutely beautiful. What were you shooting with?

Thank you, RicknJude, Mike, and Ernie for taking 'a look see'. It was amazing to watch him dive, catch and devour. It took about 2 1/2 minutes from start to finish and I was shooting the whole time. I didn't know how graphic I could get here, but I got some awesome shots.
