Re: PESO 2017 - 047, 048, 049 - GDG

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

It is pretty feeble. Good enough for a casual lock up in a good neighborhood as 
long as the bike is in sight, like when I stop for lunch at the cafe and am 
sitting outside a few feet from the bike. 

I have a much heavier duty U-Lock and cable for more serious security for when 
I go a bit further and need to secure it. It locks both wheels and frame. On 
such occasions, I usually unlock and remove the battery too, and take the 
controller/computer with me.

LOL! Indeed they do. :-) 

But, funny as they look, they're the reason this bike is so darn good to ride. 
They're not the stock tires: like most bikes in this class, the stock tires are 
more off-road/fire trail oriented knobbies that improve traction on loose dirt. 
I liked the bike on the first ride, but the stock knobbies were noisy and 
dragged a bit. I had these put on before I picked it up—the bike shop owner 
hadn't realized they existed when I pointed them out in his catalog. When I 
went to pick it up, he looks at me and says, "If I'd known about these tires 
before, I'd have fitted the bike with them before going to the expo two 
weekends ago. I could have sold a half dozen bikes with them on it!" 

Compared to the stock tires, these roll beautifull, seemingly frictionless over 
any surface. You float and flow along, turn and corner like a motorcycle, stop 
like a motorcycle. I find they are so efficient that, even with my 
still-recovering legs, I have the electric-assist power OFF or use the lowest 
possible setting most of the time. 

They attract a remarkable amount of attention. Every time I go out for a ride 
and stop somewhere, people come over and look, ask what it is, where did I get 
it, what does it cost, etc. Way more than the other fat bikes that pull up with 
their knobby tires… 

Well, I'm off for another ride… Still finishing up my 'week of polaroid photos' 
so I've got the SX-70 loaded and with me.

I have had to stop putting out feeders, except for hummingbird feeders.

The deer rise up on their back legs to butt the feeders, and spill out the
seed so they can eat it.  Even feeders that are too high for them to reach
(and therefore too high to easily refill) attract the deer to clean up
underneath the feeders after the Jays and Cardinals pick out the choice
morsels and scatter the rest. Once in the yard, they eat every tender shoot

I can post and view, and usually get a link to post here, but I still
haven't been able to figure out to edit the image data after I post it.  I
usually upload a group of images at once, to a gallery, but seldom have
time to immediately put in the titles, links and other info on all of them
at once.  I can never find the link or menu to allow me to go back and edit
the data on the images I previously posted.  I find that a real
inconvenience.

[Daniel J. Matyola]

I have had to stop putting out feeders, except for hummingbird feeders.

The deer rise up on their back legs to butt the feeders, and spill out the
seed so they can eat it.  Even feeders that are too high for them to reach
(and therefore too high to easily refill) attract the deer to clean up
underneath the feeders after the Jays and Cardinals pick out the choice
morsels and scatter the rest. Once in the yard, they eat every tender shoot
on every bush, and tempt my dog to chase them into the neighboring woods.

Re: Up periscope! (for a question)

[Mark C]

Hi Rick -

Does the lens do this on multiple bodies? You might want to verify that 
it is the lens and not the camera. My venerable Pz-1p developed the same 
problem with some lenses. It appears that the shaft from the body is not 
linking up to the lens right. It's only a couple of lenses and they work 
well on other bodies, but consistently falter on the Pz-1p (though like 
in your case, re-mounting the lens or shaking it gets things working 
again, for a while.)


Good luck with the home renovations - we replaced all of our galvanized 
plumbing and Knob and tube wiring last year.  Lots of dust, noise and 
disruption.

So here I am to draw on the group's collective experience:

My beloved DA 16-45 is having autofocus problems. It often just goes
click-click-click and doesn't focus. Sometimes a bit of shaking gets
it working again for a frame or three.

Where should I send it for repair? Precision? KEH? Somewhere else?

I keep getting notices from photo.net stating someone has commented on an image

I hope they're getting what they want cause it seems a lot of people who used

Re: PESO: For Ken Waller

[Paul Stenquist]

My photo position would  normally frighten the birds, but they’ve grown 
accustomed to me. It took a lot of time, but they’re now used to seeing me and 
the camera in the yard about 20 feet from the feeders and close to the trees 
where they alight. Every time I go out there they scatter, and I have to wait 
about 20 minutes for them to remember that I’m part of the landscape.

Re: PESO: For Ken Waller

[Stanley Halpin]

We have six feeders. Two are the standard plastic tubular type with a few perch 
on the sides and a tray at the bottom. Filled with what our feed store calls 
“cardinal mix.” These attracts cardinals, doves, sparrows, redwing blackbirds, 
grosbeak, red bellied woodpecker, blue jay and occasionally a variety of finch. 
The squirrels and turkeys used to raid these but I have figured out effective 
defense mechanisms.
A third feeder with the same mix but only a small perch at the bottom attracts 
the tufted titmice, nuthatch, house finch, purple finch, gold finch. And a 
swarm of chickadees.
The fourth feeder is a perforated aluminum tube for peanuts for the clinging 
birds. Hairy and Downey woodpeckers, Nuthatch, and occasional others.
Then a fifth, for hummingbirds. And a sixth, for Orioles. We get both Baltimore 
and Barn Orioles.

We’ve tried the suet feeders but our local birds don’t seem too interested.

We site the feeders with the following in mind: keeping the squirrels out, 
keeping the turkeys out, keeping the feeders the right distance from our 
windows to minimize bird strikes, and giving us a nice view so we can enjoy the 
visitors. Oh, and photography would be nice but I don’t have positions that 
give me a good sightline without disturbing the birds. 

The turkeys learned that when I open the people-door out of the garage, that I 
might well be carrying bird food. And they would come running. And a few 
figured out that when the feeders were full, they could jump up, hit the bottom 
of the feeders with the top of their head, jostle enough seed to the ground for 
them to then find and eat… Some feeders now have fences on the ground around 
the bottom so the turkeys can’t get underneath, others have been raised just 
high enough so that even the best jumper can’t quite get to them.

Re: PESO 2017 - earth day ride 1&2 - GDG

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

hey Ken, 

Do you consider autofocus cheating? Autoexposure? Auto white balance? AutoISO?  
:-)

An electric pedal assist was essential. I have a lovely pedal bike that I 
couldn't ride anymore … after having the hip replacement and knee repair, and 
27 years of osteoarthritic degradation of the hip joint twisting my gait and 
ruining my leg muscles. I could no longer even swing my leg over the saddle to 
get on the bike, never mind how exhausted ten minutes of riding would make me. 
No progress… 

All of that is changing. Riding these ebikes has rejuvenated my legs to the 
point where I now take the pedal bike out and can ride for an hour or more. 
Beyond that, I can go more places and use it more. 

More is better. Life is good. eBikes are good.

Re: PRSO: Honfleur Harbor

[Paul Stenquist]

I've figured out photo.net, and it no longer troubles me. But a few things 
remain broken, but they're not crucial to posting or viewing.

PRSO: Honfleur Harbor

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Honfleur guards the left bank of the Seine as it flows into the English
Channel.  It is smaller and more picturesque the Le Havre, on the right
bank, which was largely destroyed in World War II.  Courbet, Boudin, and
Monet painted in Honfleur, forming the école de Honfleur, which contributed
to the appearance of the Impressionist movement

Re: PESO: For Ken Waller

[Paul Stenquist]

I've been using a finch mic that included thistle and other small seeds. I 
previously had only finch feeders so only small birds could feed, although 
woodpeckers showed up now and then. I now added a bigger feeder and filled it 
with a wild bird mix that includes sunflower seeds, but my usual crowd of small 
birds is still predominant. I expect others will arrive in time. It's been up 
only three dsys. I added the suet cage with a block of duet that includes some 
peanuts at the same time. The  Titmouse went for that. The sparrows and 
chickadees like it as well. I expect woodpeckers will turn up. They dominate 
the suet feeders at the nature centers.

G'day, all

After the great enthusiasm for the 20th Anniversary Gallery, things have
slowed down a touch.  As in zero, zilch, not-a-one submission so far for
May.

Theme: "Leading Lines"

...and a bit of clarification.

I had in mind "lines" such roads, fences, rows of trees, etc that lead
the eye to a focal point in an image but Ann wondered if the theme was
about the first line of a song, film, novel or poem.  Which, of course,
are all perfectly valid interpretations.

So, it's up to you.
