my cam is an old 2005 canon powershot sx.

I had one of those but my ex-wife took it back with her to FL to get fixed. It was taking blurry pictures. After a good while I asked what was up with the camera and when was I getting it back. She said it was just a dirty lens and no answer on the second question. I guess she stole it. My daughter gave me an underwater camera because she's a better person than her mother :cool:

But I'm talking about the settings you are in, the use of the trucks, the dog or dogs... the content. That's what makes your pictures the best. BC is gorgeous!

Nice! We're getting pattypan squash the size of your smallest melon out of our "garden". They're best skinned and grilled.

Takes about 10 minutes to load a picture and can’t load more than one to a post

I have the gentleman’s card in my truck he also wants to photograph the 62 Lark he heard me talking to my buddy about needing tires he asked if it was a nice as the truck told him it better and showed him a couple of pictures

He must have taken a few hundred pictures .

If you do "choose file" and "upload" for each picture, you can post all 5 in one post. You can can usually do a couple at a time, but I just do each one separately

You triggered a memory. Here is the only pic known to exist of my 67 Mustang that I drove in high school.

I'm glad I triggered that up. Cool 'Stang. Jacked up. Some Pro Stock Eliminators sat up like that, too. What a cool short era in drag racing that was

This is the back of my little barn. I had the materials laying around so I decided to build a short little rail/seat on the platform outside the door. Just a small busywork project. I always liked the cookie cutter designs they used to cut in shutters of little cottage type houses, so whipped up a pine tree design for something different

There is some subtle coolness going on it that picture.
1. Old Chevy truck
2. Old barn
3. Sunflower
4. Betsy Ross flag
Nice!!!

Yeah, thanks. I wanted to give that side of the barn an alpine cottage vibe. There are huge fir trees looming above. It would be a nice place to sit, and I do for a short while, if my neighbor's house wasn't right behind there. I can find times when they won't be coming outside

nothing unmanly about hobbies or doing artwork. It's a shame to see a corporate hobby supply out buying up our truck parts to sell for uses other than bolting on a truck.

I've been taking pictures of old barns lately. There are hundreds if not thousands around here. This is a neat little one I got yesterday on my drive between two produce markets. It's nice to buy groceries, at least some, off the farm

Another one of our "new normal" summer mornings. Smoke from wildfires clouding the sky. When I rolled out the door at 0430 the smell of smoke was the first thing I noticed. It's been the same story for the last 5 or so years now. The two photos were taken 10 minutes apart. As the sun burned through the clouds.

Cool pics with the bridge and tug.
It seems many of us are noticing the effects of all of the smoke. First year for us it seems in MI to have the smoke effect on sunsets. Spent the last 10 days on the west side of the state and the first pic with my son shows what most sunsets have looked like this year....blurry. Hopefully it doesn't become our new normal.

Was nice to have a pretty clear one a couple nights ago though shown in the second pic.

special-K 08-22-2023 06:54 AM

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
 
Very cool all the same. We had the smoke earlier, late spring/early summer, but I haven't been noticing it any at all since. And today will be cooler due to a high sunk down from that very area. I didn't realize the wind would blow south and west into Oregon. Seems odd to me, but apparently very normal I see

Wow ..That's crazy. In Ct. we have not had one day that reached 90 in August.

Willowrun 08-22-2023 08:42 PM

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
 
Same here in southern MI. Haven't hit 90 since July 5th. Keep hearing about how hot this summer has been all over the world but us Michiganders haven't had that type of summer. Lake Michigan most likely won't be warm enough for most people to want to swim in this year. It's cold!

Supposed to hit 90 here Thursday then back to the 70's.
