Re: New here (plus a PESO)
Still trying to find a watermark I like more than hate. But honestly, that watermark is designed to be annoying as a theft deterrent. Because of the freakin' huge audience of my About.com work the volume of thefts of my photos has hit an epidemic stage so I try little things like the watermark to make my non-About.com licensed images less attractive for casual thieves. There are weeks I don't even check my Fairshare (and other theft checking) accounts because I just can't take another 4 pages of thefts listed out on each one. ~Liz On 12/29/10 6:18 AM, frank theriault knarftheria...@gmail.com wrote: On Mon, Dec 27, 2010 at 9:08 PM, Elizabeth Masoner lizmaso...@bellsouth.net wrote: Ok, I¹ll dive right in.

New here (plus a PESO)
Thanks for the warm welcome all! I'm actually not in New York, that's just where About.com is headquartered. I'm in central Alabama. There are about 800 different sites within the About.com group and we work from all over the world thanks to the wonder of the Internet. I like it because for all its faults, its one paycheck I don't have to send repeat invoices to get. The photo was taken at Lat 33.16002 and Long -86.5608. No clue who owns that property but the drive let me get close to the tree without getting stuck in the mush. That was the first time in better than 50 years it had snowed on Christmas there. And that was pretty much half a day of flurries but no more than 1/2 inch accumulation on leaves and such. Cormorants I can shoot. Just have to get out to the dam or run down to the Air Force base community pond in Montgomery to find them. :) I'll try to remember to post a larger pick somewhere for next PESO. I figured out PESO only because I searched the archives until I found an explanation of the acronyms, thanks for the link. ~Liz -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: New here (plus a PESO)
Hi Liz - welcome. Excellent first PESO - well composed with a sombre mood. I'm not a fan of vignetting but it seems to add to the mood here. By the way, if you find the acronyms used on the list a bit of a mystery, there is an FAQ of sorts. You've obviously worked out what PESO means but there are some others.

Hi Elizabeth: Welcome! Great to have another woman on the list. I liked your peso. Moody and Poeish!
