Re: PESO: Pansy
Thanks, Bob. I planted these very early this year, and they are still thriving. Often, but this stage of spring, they have faded or been crowded out by the petunias and portulacas I plant between them. This is actually just a test image of my new (to me) K-5IIS. So far, I really like the controls and the mechanics of the camera. I like the way the batters over closes firmly and opens easily, unlike my K-r and *istD. I also like the button one has to press to change the camera mode. With my older cameras, I would often switch modes inadvertently while gripping the camera to crawl into position or climb a step ladder to reach the right spot for a macro. Although I like the feel and operation of the K-5IIS, I am a bit disappointed. I spent all that money on another camera, and my photos still suck. It must be the lenses. I guess I just have to by a more expensive lens.

Re: Peso: Pigeon Point
Christine, I took a long look, this AM, trying to decide if this image reflects a lean of the tower. I worked for sometime with crop tool lines and my eye. Something that does tend to imply an overall slope/lean might be the roof line of the building in front. I attribute that to the fact that the right side is further from the Pentax than the left. I think you're just trying to mess up my Golden Ratio. HA!!

Re: PESO: Pansy
Thanks, David. I don't spend as much time on them as on my other flowers, but they have interesting patterns. One problem is that the way they grow, there is almost always a dead of faded one right next to the nicest one, and, unless I want to pull out a lot of the less attractive blooms, it's hard to get a nice one without a distracting background.

Re: PESO: Investment Opportunity
A sad scene Dan. Jersey diners are a great heritage for New Jersey and its sad to see their numbers lessen. We have a few here in Michigan but you don't see many diners like them around the country believe me I've looked for them on my trips. A great book on Jersey diners is 'Jersey Diners' by Peter Genouese in case you're not aware. Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: Daniel J. Matyola danmaty...@gmail.com Subject: Re: PESO: Investment Opportunity Thanks, Igor. This image is greatly troubling to me. As you may know, I am a fan of classic Jersey diners. This building was the Whitehouse Diner, quite a popular establishment in its day. Legend has it that, decades ago, the owner had an argument with a patron, lost his temper, grabbed a cleaver and chased everyone out of what had been a packed diner. He locked it up, and never returned, and it has been in a state of decay ever since. Its condition has gotten a lot worse over the severe weather of this past winter, This is my original blog post about this structure: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/the-abandoned-whitehouse-diner A few years back, the sign was in good enough shape that I used it as the symbol for my dine blog: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/exploring-diners Thanks for looking and commenting, Igor.

Re: PESO: Track Lighting
Thanks, Don. Originally, I cropped out the cars and the red can: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=17781395 I didn't like that, because it concealed the fact that this was a railway station. I wanted some of the tracks and some of the platform. I guess I need to clone out the cars instead, and see if I can do that while keeping the can for a highlight and the tracks for context.

Re: PESO: Investment Opportunity
Sad indeed. It breaks my heart.

This building was the Whitehouse Diner, quite a popular establishment in its day.

He locked it up, and never returned, and it has been in a state of decay ever since. Its condition has gotten a lot worse over the severe weather of this past winter, This is my original blog post about this structure: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/the-abandoned-whitehouse-diner A few years back, the sign was in good enough shape that I used it as the symbol for my dine blog: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/exploring-diners Thanks for looking and commenting, Igor.

Re: PESO: Waiting
Okay somewhere I'm missing a joke here I think.. so I looked over a bunch of photos all with a NYC_ANN heading Including two shots of (Gasp,gag) a banana peel... funny, because i'm rather famous among my friends of not wanting to be within 10 feet of anyone even eating a fresh one. I looked at a couple of shots not seeing the NYC_ANN thing because they were going off the screen.. whats up? ann On 6/4/2014 18:11, Daniel J.

Matyola danmaty...@gmail.com Subject: Re: PESO: Investment Opportunity Thanks, Igor. This image is greatly troubling to me. As you may know, I am a fan of classic Jersey diners. This building was the Whitehouse Diner, quite a popular establishment in its day. Legend has it that, decades ago, the owner had an argument with a patron, lost his temper, grabbed a cleaver and chased everyone out of what had been a packed diner. He locked it up, and never returned, and it has been in a state of decay ever since. Its condition has gotten a lot worse over the severe weather of this past winter, This is my original blog post about this structure: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/the-abandoned-whitehouse-diner A few years back, the sign was in good enough shape that I used it as the symbol for my dine blog: http://djmatyola.com/lbdinerdan/exploring-diners Thanks for looking and commenting, Igor.
