Sorry, Paul! Damned auto-correct adds insult to the indignity of the art director's stunt. Your photos were exactly the thing to accompany the text. The art director needs to study the comment made by the gentleman from Bozrah, CT. Yeah, you were paid, but that would annoy the crap out of me,

No one goes swimming in New England at the right time of year, the water temperature of Long Island Sound is rising until mid November, and is quite pleasant, for bathing, during "Indian Summer", by which time most tourists and even locals have left the beaches for good. On 12/3/2015 1:20 PM,

Impressive examples! The big wonder is, of course, how far away were the subjects? Some were in questionable focus and others, in stunning focus. Allegedly, some CA is a possibility at 450mm, but PP such as "big boy" PS, should easily deal with it. J - Original Message - From: "Darren

The 14mp and 16mp seem to put a strain on resources used by DCU 5, the 6mp files from cameras like the *ist D series are handled much better, for them it's almost snappy. However there are a number of UI issues with what I would call the new Candified interface over the PDCU 4, which much
