Lots of great bird photos lately

I've been crazy busy, but I've actually been looking at all the awesome shots from Subash, Paul, Jack etc. I'm quite envious of the great bird photos. I was installing cat6 at Great America today, I kept hearing hawks, and occasionally I'd see them soaring almost overhead, but by the time

Re: Equipment frustrations

I was trying to sell my mac mini with a 2TB SSD in it, but nobody was interested. I’ve moved that to my laptop, so now I’ve got plenty of space on that for photos when I road trip. So now I’m trying to sell a quad core mini with a 1TB spinny drive, except that I’ve been too busy to actually

Nice shot, Paul! I'd hate to be the rodent he's focusing on. If your hawk is available, we have waaay too many squirrels around here... Rick On Wed, Mar 7, 2018 at 1:25 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Found this frame among yesterday’s shot. I like it better than the

Re: Thunderbird help.. a small disaster!

Equipment frustrations

I don't have much photography going on these days. My MacMini photo computer kept crashing and wouldn't recognize external drives a few weeks back. After a week of futile evening toil I took it to the local computer hospital. The crashing was from a directory problem (which Disk Utility couldn't
