$20 is correct. It doesn't matter if the second transaction is the same goat or a different goat.

My wife and I have watched some of the women's games. Some of them are very talented. One thing I have taken away from those games over the years; in my opinion the announcers have a knowledge of the game and on the whole are better than the announcers for the men's games.

McDonalds and White Castle make good coffee- not Starbucks so much, that's yuppie coffee where they order weird coffee concoctions so the person behind them in line will be impressed.
I think the Fench Press is the best homemade coffee process and Keurig is the most convenient.


I like McDonalds coffee with a little cream. I have never cared for Starbucks or the culture. We buy coffee from a coffee shop in Lexington, KY. Shipping is $12 regardless of the amount you purchase. The shop is "Coffee Times" and they have a great selection.

I need to buy an extra battery for a Nikon D750. Battery is EN-EL15 or EN-EL15A. The OEM Nikon battery is quite expensive ($69 at B&H).

There are other suppliers through Amazon that have better prices and are likely good batteries. One is Wasabi (2 for $26) another is a no-name, but highly rated (1 for $17).

Are after-market batteries worth buying? Any recommended brands? Thanks!

I have been using Wasabi for over a year now and I'm satisfied with them. Prices are much better, also

The small Sumac tree/bush has small berries known as drupes. The drupes persist through the winter. Hardy birds like; Woodpeckers, Thrushes, Sparrows, and waxwings will exist on these and others without making the long and punishing trip south. The picture would be of a male Eastern Bluebird, a Thrush if you did not know. All photos were taken in Southeastern Ct. with a Canon 5D M IV and Canon 100 to 400 Il. I sincerely appreciate your comments. Thank you.

Beautiful colors, great sky, reflections, and excellent composition. Additionally, I like the fact that your photos are always sharp.
Well done, Bill.


Just an echo of what ecobin said but he said it first. Great shot.

BTW.....Didn't know they were using Porches' for police cars in Loredo. It says 911 right on the side !


They do (or did when I was there) use Porsches for police cars in Germany. Didn't know about Laredo.
And they didn't put 911 on the cars in Germany.

Portrait Pro has made steady progress. They've steadily improved PortraitPro, developed a program for landscape photos, and now they have one for making the body look better - PortraitPro Body. I thought I'd get it for self-portraits, but then I looked in the mirror. Not necessary!

This past week I shot another wedding. it was a beach wedding, The sun was low making harsh shadows, There was 2 garbage cans chained to a flag pole which was directly behind the path set up for the bride to walk. There were signs on the dunes, on the wood boardwalk. There was large buildings behind that.
The sky was gray not blue, ( thank god for sky replacement )
the brides maid decided she should stick her tongue out non stop thinking it was funny.

The grooms mother was late the wedding had started. I didnt get a pic of her coming down the isle, she snuck down the side ( kind of hard to hide on the beach. )
When I did photos after the ceremony, the Grooms mother got up and left. I had one pic of her and it wasnt good.

I sent a few pix to the brides mother The bride was very heavy, the mother was heavy, She was not happy with those pix saying she looked fat. ( that was after I had did my best to make her look thinner while shooting and while editing)
Editing is a bitch , removing all the signs and garbage cans, the wind was blowing so lots of hair editing.

So you know how my week is going . I'm sure you have some great photo stories, lets hear them,

My wife and I shot a number of weddings before deciding, "Wow! This is a lot of work" and went another direction. We ended up with a good relationship with all the brides and their families but we did have a couple of little problems to overcome.
One bride to be was slightly older than the typical young bride. This was the second wedding for this lady. She was in her early thirties with two daughters. She told us right up front that she had never had a photograph that she was pleased with. That was certainly encouraging. I used a weak soft focus filter for all the shots and she liked most of them.
We shot another wedding in a church that was not a church we were familiar with and not the church of the couple getting married. Not sure why that church was chosen. The sanctuary was extremely dark and we couldn't use flash to get shots of the processional--church rule, not the couples. No flash during the service which began with the first bridesmaid walking down the aisle. The young lady at our local camera store gave me a great idea. Immediately after the presentation of the newly wed couple to the congregation, I had the minister ask the congregation to remain seated for about ten minutes while we "staged" the processional. That way the photos weren't in an empty church. He didn't want to do it. I told him that either he would do it or I would. He did and as the congregation was made up of family and friends, no one objected. We got the photos, bride was happy, we were happy.
One last problem solved. A prospective bride lived in another town, had two hour limousine service gift to come to church in our town for her wedding. We were going to get about 15 minutes to shoot the wedding. We just said no and didn't do it.
All's well that ends well.

Us older folks will never forget this history, but the newer generation may never know of it!

On June 6, 1944, more than 160,000 Allied troops landed along a 50-mile stretch of heavily-fortified French coastline, to fight Nazi Germany on the beaches of Normandy, France. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower called the operation a crusade in which, “we will accept nothing less than full victory.” More than 5,000 Ships and 13,000 aircraft supported the D-Day invasion, and by day’s end, the Allies gained a foot-hold in Continental Europe. The cost in lives on D-Day was high. More than 9,000 Allied Soldiers were killed or wounded, but their sacrifice allowed more than 100,000 Soldiers to begin the slow, hard slog across Europe, to defeat Adolf Hitler’s crack troops.

My wife's uncle didn't land on one of the D-Day beaches. He jumped into La Fiere France just a little west of Sainte Mere-Eglise with the 82nd Airborne on June 5/6. Their task was to hold a bridge. I think Sainte-Mere-Eglise was one of the first towns liberated. He was later taken prisoner during Operation Market Garden (Bridge Too Far). He survived the war and it was my honor to get to know him.
