Re: PDML Annual
Permit me to second Ken. I’ve only been to of the Grandfather Mtn weekends; Don was very friendly at the first, and greeted me warmly by name at the second. We occasionally exchanged emails after that. Doug, your tribute was spot-on, and beautifully written (as usual). Rick On Fri, Jun 22, 2018 at 07:40 Doug Brewer wrote: > Thank you, Ken.

2 large mugs of coffee on the morning. A large mug of strong tea (PG Tips) in the afternoon. Wine or beer with dinner. A cup of decaf after dinner 2-3 times a week.

Shasta at night, rough cuts
Friday night we had a nice clear view of Mt Shasta from up the road from where we were staying. I'll need to do final polish on these when I get home, but I think they show promise.

PESO 2018 - 043 - GDG
I had a fun day yesterday visiting the San Francisco Museum Of Modern Art (SFMOMA) with a friend. We spent most of our visit in the Magritte exhibition ... which I strongly recommend to anyone in the area who enjoys fantastic art of any kind. It was a bit of an inspiration when we came across this room full of superb constructions. I just had to do a take on it from the perspective of re-capturing art with a extended surrealist meme floating in my head... :) https://flic.kr/p/2759UjT enjoy!

Re: Birds in Northern California (so far)
Exposures look ok but the focus is off on several. Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: "Larry Colen" Subject: Birds in Northern California (so far) I'm on a trip to Oregon to deal with parental issues. On my way up I went to a tango event in McCloud (Mt Shasta). Here are a bunch of photos taken at several places, a rest stop south of Willows, the Sac wildlife reserve, a casino north of willows, and McCloud. Someone has already helped me identify the Western Kingbird, and the flick. If anyone can ID other birds in the set, that would be awesome. I think that both the black and the brown birds (at the rest stop) are blackbirds, and that I have a bunch of sparrows from all over. The pinkish pigeon might be a mourning dove. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157697754864334 After grabbing a snack at Floyd's frosty (surprisingly good burgers by the way) I saw some hummers and was taking photos of them when someone told me about the flick in the pole in front of Floyd's. The photos of the flick, the nest with the metal background and the hummers were taken with the DA55-300, most of the rest with the sigma 50-500. If anyone is really curious, the proofset is at: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157698251824285 It is less convenient to do processing on the road, I'm hoping to do final edits when I get home. In the mean time, I've got a cheap monitor as a secondary display, and photos on it seem a lot brighter than on my laptop display (a bit over exposed) so feedback on general exposure of the photos would be appreciated. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
