Re: PESO - more elaborate in isolation - DougB
I’ve been working at home for 12 years, so I’ve had plenty of practice. I work 10am to 4pm, five days a week. Rarely more, although I will if necessary. All my employment is contract work so I have plenty of motivation to get it done. The last two months have been very good. I just hope it continues.

Re: PESO - more elaborate in isolation - DougB
I can relate to this. I'm pretty much the poster boy for Non-Essential, which the current state of the universe has only emphasized. Of course, if I'm not shooting, I'm not getting paid, but there have been enough shifts in Dougworld lately to fill my time with stuff that needs to be done, which has given me plenty of opportunities to sit and stare. So it goes, indeed. On 5/16/20 4:04 AM, Bob Pdml wrote: On 16 May 2020, at 02:51, "d...@dougbrewerphoto.com" wrote: Thank you, Godfrey. Sorry I drifted your thread. It was just meant as a response.

Re: PESO - more elaborate in isolation - DougB
Nice photo, Doug! Not to put too fine an edge on it, but if you want to discuss Doug's lovely photograph, please change the subject of the thread when you respond. I track and auto-filter all the responses to posts about photos I've offered for viewing based on subject, and now I have more than ten posts that have nothing to do with anything I have posted. It's good netiquette to change the subject when the focus of the conversation has moved away from the original intent. Thanks!

Thank you, Godfrey. Sorry I drifted your thread. It was just meant as a response.
