Took my 100mm macro out for a walk yesterday, played around with DOF

Yup , any time you open up old iron you never know what's going to jump out and bite you . My adventure began with a misaligned door , which led to the discovery of rot in the f-channels , and things went downhill from there.

Back to the 2006 slides. Buds bursting on the willows in Confedaration Park, Calgary, AB. May 2006. The original Olympus 3.2MP camera.
Welcome! It has been a while since I've been out to Glenwood Springs. A fun town.

Ooh, I remember looking down on Denver from the mountains. There was a house there, for sale. I'm, sure the price was mostly for the view. I can imagine the views from that house, from the west, and east, as storms come over the mountains, and the ones that sweep up the foothills. Wow...

I just fear someone stealing my photos and taking credit for them elsewhere on the web.
Anything is possible but life is full of unlikely possibilities. We carry on anyways.
Yesterday on a walk around the boardwalk I verified something which I had suspected for a while: we actually have two large herons, one which is definitely a Great Blue Heron and the other I'm not sure about because the feather colors and markings are a bit different so it may be a juvenile or immature GBH or another kind of heron altogether. I need to get out the bird book again!
Anyway, here is Alfred, the GBH, shaking his wet feathers to dry them in the sun:

Whew! This made me tired just reading it.
Despite being an engineer originally from Detroit (who still has family members working in the auto industry) I just totally missed out on the working on cars myself gene. Would save me some cash if I had it though that's for sure. I just love driving.One of my fondest childhood memories are of spending time with my father in his TR6 on a nice spring or summer day with the top down. I find it fascinating how inanimate objects can have such an emotional pull on someone. Nearly 50 years later I see a TR6 and I'm taken back.

You can always watermark them.
Personally I keep the size small enough that I know the only thing someone can do with an image is repost it. Typically no wider than 1200 pixels and/or no taller than 800. Should anyone try to make a desktop image or print from that, they will be disappointed.
If I feel something has potential commercial value I don't post it, although I am at an age where I have no real need or desire to sell my images. I also recognize that everyone and his dog has their own camera now and many would prefer even a low quality image of their own creation to spending money on someone elses work.
