Thank you That is where Chopping/Trimming comes in. If I want to down load my pictures onto sites like this one I have to trim them anyway as they are to full of "information" to download quickly Quote | Post #746691 (1)

Nice texture shots Sandy, my wife is more into that kind of photography than I, each to his own I guess, that's the great thing about it as every picture is an expression of the person behind the camera. Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #746771 (2)

Great photo's everyone! I need to get my camera out and see what I can do. Need to learn more about the settings! A Crafty Cubit Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today. James Dean Quote | Post #747481 (3)

Linda, I was a total dummy (still am) the instruction manual for my Nikon came in Japanese and so I had to experiment with the manual settings. Actually the best way to learn! Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #747491 (4)

Jon you are right. It is easier with the digital camera than the old film ones, as we can see the results right away.. I am still learning, I know enough to know that I still need to learn more. Quote | Post #747527 (5)

Yep I sure remember my old (still have) film camera a Pentax, I took some pretty good shots with that so I did but there's no second chance, no opportunity to change or modify. I love digital Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #747598 (6)

No, it by passed us by 200 miles. We get killer waves and a tiny bit of rain and that is all. Quote | Post #748068 (12)

I do hope the folks further up the coast are safe. Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #748111 (13)

That is a relief! I was afraid you would be out there in huricane force winds trying to do a shoot! 200 miles is a long way...but it sounds like you will still get hit by a pretty strong storm, stay safe!

Thanks. We only get a small rain band at my house. I live over 10 miles inland. The wind was not even strong. The West side of a hurricane is the weak side. It is rare for us up here to get hit by one. The only ones that get us come in the back door.(from the west) Quote | Post #748226 (15)

About the storm and the beach-IF there was any chance a hurricane was coming in or even passing much closer I would NOT be any where near the beach. This Native Floridian knows better than going into that danger zone. Quote | Post #748247 (16)

we are in for 20 hours of rain during the next 2 days with high winds. we are ready for it. visit http://www.cookfromtheheart.com frank I'm so old that when I was born the Dead Sea wasn't even sick. Quote | Post #748282 (17)

Stay safe. Sure wish we had had some of that rain. I need to take it easy for a few days, otherwise the Physical Therapist is going to kill me OR I may kill her, stupid shoulder and back are bothering me more now than they did before. So this means no picture taking for the next couple of days. Any one want to bet how long I will be able to stop taking pictures???? I will not be on here to much either something to do with my bad poster when I am working on this. Quote | Post #748299 (18)
