First I heard such a rumor. I'd sooner give up photography than have to twist my lenses the wrong way.


Wrong way. That could be a legit issue.

I constantly struggle to come up with what to shoot. Does it come randomly to you? Or do you plan and brainstorm and imagine the final picture first and then arrange to make it happen?

Do you shoot what you happened to see? Or do you create your shots?


Nature.

Judging from the quantities of his posts, I respectfully suggest that we renamed this topic "Jerry's forum." I'm just being a little snarky today. I enjoy everyone's posts here.


That seems reasonable at times.

My parents said the same thing about the music I listened to in the 60's and 70's. They couldn't understand my fascination with the Beatles and Stones. Dylan confused them. Experimemtal jazz annoyed them. Zepplin just drove them bonkers. It was all just screaming and noise. We agreed on Sinatra and Basie, but my friends thought I had lost my mind. I never let anyone know about the Zappa records in my collection. No one was ready for that.lol


I get what you are saying. Some parallels to my own life. My mom hated most songs by the Doors. I would not think of exposing her to Frank Zappa. Oddly, she liked some songs by Pink Floyd. And thought Jimi Hendrix had a nice voice. On the other had she turned me on to big band music like Goodman, Basie, Miller, and later Frank Sanatra. My dad was less interested in music but liked to dance.

When life gives you lemons, make Whiskey Sours. So, when the first ad for female incontinence comes on, I know I have time to do things I have been putting off. I can go to the garage and change the oil in my wife's car. Then I can visit the fridge on the way back and get my nightly diet Dr. Pepper. I return to my chair just in time to hear the man tell me that some unpronounceable drug for a rare, unknown disease may give me thoughts of suicide, and if those thoughts happen, I should quit taking the crap. Now, back to our regularly scheduled program.

I found these from 2021 on my travel hard drive.

What I remember about these two photos (from a whole series I took as I was walking back to my car), is that people with cell phones just kept walking past me, seemingly totally ignoring the potential in these images...except for one woman. She asked me if she could see how I framed the shots, who said, "you must know what you're doing, because you have an real camera."


Those are really nice.

please speak up.

Crazy situation. Two years ago, I had a microwave that burnt up. Went and got a large toaster oven. Loved it.
I had it less than 6 months and it started smoking...BADLY.
I went and got a new microwave and a smaller toaster oven.

Now the microwave is smoking when you run it more that 30 seconds.
I still have the larger toaster oven and like it so much better than the small one, but afraid to plug it in any more.

Anybody have an idea what could be happening or if they can or cannot be fixed????

The last several microwave ovens we have had have been high-end large Panasonic models. They have each given us good service. Not all MW ovens even function the same way - different types of radio wave tubes in them. Check Consumer Reports for recommendations.

Because I consider spellchecking a form of AI. With phones and computers, you virtually have to override anything you write where you find spellcheck has inserted a different word than the one you want. I often have to erase and redo a word because the computer misinterpreted what I wanted to say.


ditto.

People would post cameras for sale ,that was more trustworthy than Facebook..so what happened


What planet is this statement from. It is not a properly syntaxed question.

I guess at what might being asked. I never buy anything on Meta/Facebook. Not monitored or regulated enough to make it safe. I buy carefully on Amazon and eBay all the time, and photography items from B&H, Adoroma, KEH, UHH.

Hello Everyone:

As I really have not been focused (hah, unintended pun) on new "point & shoot" cameras of late, as I tend to only use my old DSLR for my photography, I have a question I would like to hear opinions on:

I have a daughter who is going on an extended overseas trip to two different continents (South America and Asia), and I am hoping to get her a camera for that trip. A few caveats:

1. She is not a photographer by inclination.
2. She does take some occasional photos with her iPhone.
3. She needs to travel "light" so a basic, rectangular "point & shoot" would be her best bet to fit easily into a pocket to carry with her through her travels.

I would like her camera to be reasonably "durable" so that is she accidentally drops it, it may likely survive.
I would like it to be as functional as possible in low light situations.
I would like it to be reasonably fast to record images to whatever media it uses.

I tend to likely prefer Nikon, Canon, Panasonic, or Sony, but am open to other options.

I would like to spend somewhere in the $100 - $300 range.

What would you think would be good choices to look into?

Thank you for considering my request for guidance!

Pipe

The iPhone will probably do the job. If you really feel the need to get her something. Toss the budget limit and buy her the best top of the line iPhone.

When do we move the clocks forward this year?


Your computer and cell phone probably made the change already last Sunday. Or they could. The featured can be turned off.

That's what I remember about $2 bills - they were popular at race tracks because $2 was a popular bet.


That is why I saw them often at the store I worked in, it was close to a horse race track.
