We have a Christmas cactus plant on our kitchen table, next to the windows.

Good afternoon all,
My wife has a K-70, which has seen very light use (about 350 photosin 3 years).
She took it out to do some shooting this week, and everything seemed to work
fine, except that all of the photos are =badly= underexposed (most totally
black).
The metering is working well. On

John,
Thanks for your reply.
What I mean by a lost DNG is a bit embarrassing: I took the card out of the
camera, with 171 shots on it. I loaded them into my photo hard drive, removed
the card, and then started a backup to a different hard drive. Then I went
downstairs.
Not being sufficiently
I haven’t been around much the last few weeks, largely because I’ve spent a lot
of time recovering from an ill-timed massive failure of the external hard drive
on which I keep my photos.
A related question (without the long story): I have a few dozen shots in which
the DNG file is lost, but
A bit dry-looking, for sure, nicely shot.
There appear to be a lot of plants (like the two in the left foreground) that
are about the same height, and don’t look like the pictures I find via Google
for either mountain aloe or naboom. What are they? Are they all the same height
because of fire?
Only because there hasn’t been a quotes list for a couple of years.
Otherwise…

I installed a new external hard drive, restored my files using Time Machine,
and was crestfallen to find that (for some reason) the 170 photos I took in the
Adirondacks were lost (the disk crash occurred as I was working on them in LR).
Alas I had already deleted the images from the SD card.

We took a trip to a reunion of my wife’s family (everyone fully immunized, and
tested within the previous 3 days). I took a whole bunch of photos, and started
sorting and editing in Lightroom…
…until the external hard drive that holds my photos snuffed it this morning.
Fortunately I have Time
Philadelphia was relatively spared yesterday. I watched the weather radar
frequently, and we had only moderate rain while areas to the east and west of
us got torrents.
We’re feeling the effects of the torrents to the west of us today, though. The

Very nice shot!
The background confuses me, though. Are those trees growing out of the water?
Reflected in the water?

My photographic muse has been very quiet lately, but I realized that I hadn’t
posted much of anything from Granada, which we visited on our trip to Spain in
2019. (Remember back then? One could travel and everything!).

We had several cherry tomato plants growing in pots, and doubted that they
would survive not being watered while we were on vacation.
So we picked everything, took it with us to New Hampshire, and waited to see
what would ripen.
One evening I took this photo:
Alan, I like these a lot. It’s nice of them to be flying colo(u)rful planes!

Saw it today in the carbon-based NYTimes. Some of the photos didn’t get in, so
I’m glad you sent the link!

Paul, both the writing and photography in that piece are great. I really
enjoyed them.

I like that photo: very geometric, and the “Closed” sign in the background is
poignant.

Sent this yesterday, but it doesn’t seem to have shown up on the PDML.
These loons were frequent visitors to the cove our cottage was on. I took this

and was sporting a white breast, and speckled white-and-black head
These loons were frequent visitors to the cove our cottage was on. I took this
on the fifth day of our two-week stay; by the end the chick was much larger,
and was sporting a white breast, and speckled white-and-black head and body
feathers. By late September it will probably follow its parents
to work the best.
That is a mooring bouy in the foreground, that had a sailing catamaran tied to
it the next day.

Just back from two weeks beside a New Hampshire lake. I did less shooting than
usual; in fact the photo-muse has been rather quiet all summer.
This is from early in our trip:
