Yep ... looks like they're back up and running now. It was completely
down when I first clicked the link, and for about 10 minutes afterward.
They may have been doing some site maintenance, I reckon.

Hi all,
Just wanted to share this link with y'all and hope you enjoy it as much
as I did.
What is it about jazz that makes for such compelling photography?

Yikes! Yeah, that's a bit much -- particularly on the girl with the
freckles.

The '63 has been my dream car since I was a child. I know
everyone has opinions about Corvettes -- and their owners. But, as far
as I'm concerned, it's one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

That would explain it. I do wish I lived in a time and place where
there were more opportunities to take photographs like this.

Ironically enough, when I posted a link to your Canadians Wearing
Hats photo blog to my Facebook page, I mentioned to one of the people
who commented on it that you had the good fortune of living in Canada,
where you can take photos of strangers on the street and stand a
reasonable chance
Just wondered if anyone might have any ideas regarding a good way to
shoot the upcoming convergence between the winter solstice and lunar
eclipse.

I have some Wiccan friends I might surprise with a photo of
to look into
getting a nicer one soon.
Thanks for the response. Now that I've found a few videos about it,
I'll just do some experimentation over the next week to see if I can get
the hang of it.

I have the same issue with the images coming out pretty dark, but I
always just assumed that had more to do with the brightness of the LCD.
I turn that down as far as I can to give me a reasonable expectation of
what my shot's going to look like, though it's still considerably
brighter
Nice shot, Paul. I like the sense of resignation in the guy's
posture. Very telling.
You didn't happen to get any shots focused on the girl on the right, I
take it. She looks quite fetching -- like I've had a few drinks.

Welcome, Andy! I enjoyed looking through your work! I've had the
same experience you've had regarding the overall pace of the forums as
opposed to what goes on here. As I see it, I can go anywhere and be
called an idiot, so I figure I might as well confine it to a more
tight-knit circle.
Sorry to hear about the knee surgery. Hope it proceeds smoothly from
here on and that you're able to rest comfortably soon.
