I love your photo ideas. I'll be anxious to see your view of the fountains. I love how everyone has their own interest when it comes to photographs. LL has her light fixtures, I have my ceilings and you have fountains.
LL, you must have been reading my mind when it came to that WWII picture. I was looking at it going, I wonder if that woman even knows that guy.
Now I just have to find a creative, artsy fartsy way of capturing them- on canvas.
That is highly illogical.
There seems to be no sign of intelligent life anywhere...
"Make it so."
(Jumping ahead to a different series here, but by far my favorivte Star Trek character.)
Mmmm... mine too!! Something about his commanding leadership, well, and his handsomeness.
maroo, I understand what you mean about being happy that someone else takes the pics! Very often I am the one with the camera and I love it if I just let someone else try to capture the moments!
I hope the other ladies will take SOME of them! If we pool them, we'd have 3 times as many, and from completely different perspectives. I'll share my canvas.
You are hilarious!!!! I can't wait to meet you!

Me? A DISCelebrity?! Noooo...now LL, you, Wigd, TK, MeMom and many, many others, YES! I'm just a geeky gal with a passion for.....oh gosh, that sounds horrid....CORN DOG NUGGETS!
I am looking forward to our Corny Weiner Meet. I told Joe of it last night as he was falling asleep, from the mumbles I got in return, I think he's excited too.
At first I was confused by your "Tate" comments, but I've figured it out. I'm not that far yet in your PTR, I am done with section one though and loving every second.
I know exactly what you were gonna say, I almost said it myself, and thought, boy that sounds X-rated!!
I'm so glad Joe's on board. Seriously, you guys seem like a great family- there are just so many nice folks around here.
That's a boatload to read, Brook. I'm fabulously impressed! I think what makes it unique is that most everyone is willing to jump right in and not be shy. We DO like to joke around and chat it up. It's a great place to be.
I don't think ANYONE can get a good night shot on those little point and shoot gizmos. You need a very fancy camera with those million dollar lenses on a tripod to capture any sort of glory in a night shot. I've tried endlessly to fiddle with the settings on my camera to hope for a better night shot but it just never happens.
Liesa, those are great pictures (and I don't care if one is a painting - it's still a picture of something

) I'm sure you'll take amazing photos. Be creative. Find those abstract lines and curves. Be stylish and frame your subject. Good luck fair soldier

Of course the majority will be at the DIS meet right?
I think you're right!! On my birthday, (remember that??) there were fireworks for VE Day, and I played around with my settings some. I ended up with a few ok ones, but not anything like Melissa or Rebecca can get with their rigs. Maybe in my distant future I can get something that weighs more than 3ounces.
Great advice!! I really want to focus in on the details. Big shots are fun and all, but they seem to really lose something in the "bigness". I came across a TR not long ago, where this amazing photographer really did just that. Details. Like a bin of do-dads in a shop, or just one sign on a restaurant, or the texture of the castle. But, it will take more time. Can't do that rushing around.
I'm sure, there will be MANY of the DISMEET!! They'll probably end up being the best of the lot.
