    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Random Photo thread

Dave. What no drone shots yet? Great shot you got that evening. Boy, that looks like a busy place.
Often is lots of folks there, depending on weather.

About half the time I am there, will be a drone zipping around.
I have thought of it, but not for long. Have chatted with some of the pilots.

Here is one I found

 
Thanks. The line on that one is good... Which can't be said about all of them from this morning. I was paying close attention to them though. It was another case of working in an awkward position.

In other related topics, I cleaned / dusted, my lenses, etc. They definitely were in need. Also blew out a bunch of dust from the camera bag.
 
Very nice Glen. Nice simple composition with a great foreground to give the photo depth.
 
Thanks Sandy. I’ve only seen the water that still a handful of times at most. One it warmed up a bit and the geese, swans, ducks, and breeze got going the still water was done. I thought it was a fun shot.

I love it. Fun stuff. Flipping reflection shots can be a real mind F. I was recently going thru my camera roll and came across a pic that didn’t quite make sense. Turns out that I had flipped a reflection shot and forgot about it.

Interesting how the mind often needs to find and apply logic to what it sees instead of just observing it.
