Why would anyone want leather chairs when there is camera gear to buy? :lol: :p

I was thinking that, too....:)

Really :rolleyes:go get yourself a good bean bag at a yard sale;)
Nothing like a good set of pots and pans!!

I have a little All-Clad fetish:oops:

[cfpackerfan]

All-Clad is some GORGEOUS stuff.

[cfpackerfan]

I drooled over a set at BB&B when we were looking, but had to pass on them.

[Pete]

Evening all!!

Who wants coffee?

[short5]

I also love and tenderly care for my cast iron skillets. A good cared for and seasoned cast iron skillet is more stick free than Teflon any day providing there is a bit of fat or oil in the pan.

[thomascanty]

Not much... A AAA should be sufficient :D

Just one? Is that for a single flash, then toss the battery? I tried loading up the AA battery holder for my 20D's grip once (alkalines though, not NiMH or Lithium). I only got three or four shots out of it before I was out of juice. No onboard flash either, but I don't remember what lens I was using at the time. It may have been using IS.

Yeah unless you have money like Pete:p you have to buy them one at a time like lenses. A collection of sorts.

I was thinking that, too....:)

Speaking of buying stuff......

Wade and I have our birthdays in the same month, so we usually go in together and get something we both want. (I know there was talk about that earlier... it means we're old, right? :p)

Anyway, this weekend, we got a set of stainless steel/copper bottom cookware.

We have bought probably 4 different pot/pan sets since we got married. Teflon just doesn't last. But we had a Stainless Steel frying pan that we were given as a wedding gift that we still have, and love.
SO we decided enough is enough! No more teflon in this house. !!

I LOVE them. Beautiful.

OF COURSE.... just to clarify for Kody.... what we spent on cookware wouldn't have been enough to get ANY camera gear that we don't already have. So the choice was easy. :p

Really :rolleyes:go get yourself a good bean bag at a yard sale;)


I have a little All-Clad fetish:oops:

In reply to all you nay sayers... the wife does not share my love of photography.. YET! >:( That being said, she's obviously going to be more interested in buying something to round out the seating options in the livingroom, over me getting a 17-40. Believe me, I'd much rather being buying gear. Remember though, I am still somewhat newly married. We have not acquired all the wonderful things you all have, so I don't have extra monies to be getting camera stuffs all that often.

Thanks for tuning in.

[Pete]

Hey... I bought all of my gear one at a time!!

Well, at one point it was one a week, but it was one at a time!! :p

[cfpackerfan]

I also love and tenderly care for my cast iron skillets. A good cared for and seasoned cast iron skillet is more stick free than Teflon any day providing there is a bit of fat or oil in the pan.Yep. I LOVE cooking in cast iron as well.

Furniture should be cheap and serve multiple purposes!

My "couch" is a $300 futon that opens up into a Full bed, big enough for me, two kittehs and Ashley to sleep on.

[BearLeeAlive]

Then just minutes after that, I got another text that said, "Graphics is officially over and I am on my way to stupid animal science. You can talk about me all you want now."
:lol:
Oh goody.
Man, those teenage girls, real cute, but now that those hormones are kicking in, what a pain in the butt they can be. Oh, and have you noticed that they are starting to think they know everything, just wait 'til they get older and find out how much the really don't know. :p

EDIT: And I have a bunch more, but I'm a bit afraid Marian may have learned the good ol' fish slap from Momma. :lol:
Why would anyone want leather chairs when there is camera gear to buy? :lol: :p
LOL, just what I was thinkin' too.

But to be fair, sometimes you have to compromise in a relationship, or so I've heard....
....I had to buy a bunch of living room furniture a year ago after buying a bunch of camera gear. :)
Wade and I have our birthdays in the same month, so we usually go in together and get something we both want. (I know there was talk about that earlier... it means we're old, right? :p)
Naw, practical. Old is when you stop buying stuff for each other at all. :)

Kody, I furnished my entire house before I spent any significant $ on camera gear. And leather living room furniture was one of the first things on the list :mrgreen: I wanna see shots of your chairs when you get 'em.

if we decide to keep them I will share some photos. We've never sat in them, the price was just too good to pass up though. :) I might be able to find a link to them on costco.com though... one sec.

edit: no longer on the website... so I'll have to take some photos of them. :)

[thomascanty]

ROFL! I'm saving this for her. ;) :p

Save it for later, too. That all applies to boys as well. Or, so I've been told... By my parents. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Well... Maybe not that "cute" part. But, you know what I mean!

I only got three or four shots out of it before I was out of juice. No onboard flash either, but I don't remember what lens I was using at the time. It may have been using IS.

Nah, the battery could likely be used hundreds of times. The flash only requires a tiny jolt to get it going. You're forgetting these are single use items. They burn (very quickly, very brightly and very hotly) instead of storing up a high voltage charge, bridging the gap and discharging through xenon gas. No charging capacitors, no huge expenditure of energy. Just a simple small spark. Even static electricity can set the bulb off.

(eta) Your camera eats AA's for breakfast because of the image sensor... Takes a lot of energy to run such a chip. I have a P&S that could get through 10 shots on a standard alkaline battery, and that was it!

[cfpackerfan]

okay cool *waits patiently*. They use some top of the line leather on their furniture...the last ones I looked at there were Natuzzi. Very impressive.

We have not acquired all the wonderful things you all have,
All our furniture, except for a few inherited antiques, is used crapulence. Tell your wife she is getting a bean bag and you are getting glass. Promise to take a picture of a leather couch for her;).

Now that we are on the topic of talking to your spouse, I have a question. Leyla is getting a brake controller wired into her Jeep so she can pull the horse trailer when I am not available. I said we should test drive it around before she puts horses in it. I suggested she ride in the trailer so we could see how it pulls with weight on it. Was that the wrong thing to say:lol:? It seems to have been:confused:

I had one of those multi-use tables before the move, but I tossed it with a bunch of other stuff. You're making me nostalgic. I need to find a new one. :lol:

Nah, the battery could likely be used hundreds of times. The flash only requires a tiny jolt to get it going. You're forgetting these are single use items.

Not forgetting... I missed that little detail! I shoulda known, though. When you said "flash bulbs", it reminded my little brain of those tiny things I used to plug into the Kodak Brownie my mother gave me back in the late 60's or early 70's. I didn't think you could possibly be referring to similar technology! :lol:

I remember my dad's Polaroid had those neat little banks of flash cubes. 4 across, IIRC, it had 8 flashes, all you had to do was turn it around.

These bulbs are a little bigger, I think...

Ugliest piece of furniture we own. :lol: :lol: And I love it.

My Brownie is even older than that. One bulb at a time in this one, baby. I still remember the two little wires that stuck out the back end of the bulb, one folded over onto each side of it, even though I haven't seen one of those bulbs in nearly 40 years! I have the camera right here next to my desk, though...

These bulbs are a little bigger, I think...

Yeah... I would imagine so. ;) :lol:

we've had ours for about as long as we've been married. Next door neighbors were moving, and gave it to us. Ugliest piece of furniture we own. :lol: :lol: And I love it.

I got mine when I entered high school and my parents bought me a new bedroom set. That was in 1978. Like I said, I finally tossed it less than two months ago. That was the only piece of the bedroom set that lasted more than two years! :lol: I guess it made the rest of the purchase worth the price, whatever that was! :lol: :lol:

A toy box for a cat? There's an effort in futility!

[Guineh]

lol!! My cats have their own toybox (but I freely admit that they leave their toys under every piece of furniture we own!

My wife, when she moved in had a basket full of toys for her cat. The basket was ironically shaped like a boat. I then dubbed it the boatload of toys.. :lol:

[Skrim17]

Naw, practical. Old is when you stop buying stuff for each other at all. :)

We must be very old then, we never buy anything for each other like holiday gifts, birthday and such. We will pick things up for the other just because on occasion tho.

Talking my friend into buying a Nissan 350Z...

Hehehehe

[wu_wei0]

I also love and tenderly care for my cast iron skillets. A good cared for and seasoned cast iron skillet is more stick free than Teflon any day providing there is a bit of fat or oil in the pan.
they were some of the items that "accidentally went to the dump" before I could get back to get them. (you wouldn't believe all the things that "accidentally went to the dump"- I am tempted to think that I would locate some of them if I visited the homes of the "friends" I paid to help me. :confused:) Some of them had been around since I was a kid. I loved my cast iron and my copper clad. used them more often than my calaphon. I went through 3 full sets of pots and a few pieces plus 7 cast iron pieces to 1 large stew pot, a 4 qt pot, a small pan and a warped skillet- all cheapos packed in my "gotta pick up and go NOW" boxes.

arrrgggghhhh. too much thinking. time for lots of wine. . .unless someoen has some gatorade to share.

Talking my friend into buying a Nissan 350Z...

Hehehehe

Nice car! :)

[Pete]

Yeah. The look very sweet. He wants it. He just needs a healthy kick up the rear to make him do it.

He just pulled out of buying an RX-8, so I think he might be tempted...!

[thomascanty]

arrrgggghhhh. too much thinking. time for lots of wine. . .unless someoen has some gatorade to share.

Sorry, but you won't get much help from me. I resisted moving for so long! Now almost all I can think of is what I miss, lost, or know I brought with me but can't #&!$% FIND!?!

Moving sucks! I don't want to ever do it again...

[theague]

Yeah. The look very sweet. He wants it. He just needs a healthy kick up the rear to make him do it.

The 350 is way better than the Rx-8 imueo.

[Permagrin]

Moving sucks! I don't want to ever do it again...

IT DOES!! We bought our house 2 1/2 years ago and I STILL have boxes to unpack :lol::lol: (it sort of reminds me of the opening scene of "the Incredibles") :lol:

[cfpackerfan]

The 350 is way better than the Rx-8 imueo.

imueo. that's a new one. "In my un-educated opinion?"

[Pete]

The 350 is way better than the Rx-8 imueo.

No brainer. The RX-8 hates being shut down when the engine's not fully warmed up. When you try and start it afterward, it's already flooded.

[Pete]

Darn, he's bottling out. The wuss!!

[theague]

imueo. that's a new one. "In my un-educated opinion?"

You're so smart Cat! :)

[cfpackerfan]

You're so smart Cat! :) I am!! imueo. :lol:

[theague]

I love creating new ones. :)

I just spoke to the shipper...do you guys know that even if you sell your (camera, lens whatever) for a certain amount and you insure it for that amount, if you don't have your original receipt for it proving it's worth that amount AND that YOU PAID that amount, UPS won't pay you?

Fortunately I keep the receipts for everything. But still...this is so frustrating.

:shock: Glad you've got the receipts, Lisa, but even so!!!!!!

Evening all!!

Who wants coffee?

Hey Pete. Hmm, you got any tea around? I shall I make some?

Hey... I bought all of my gear one at a time!!

Well, at one point it was one a week, but it was one at a time!! :p

http://newquay-plus.co.uk/POTN/smilies/rotfl.gif

MmmMmMmmMmmmmm! Coffee.


I thought you'd stopped drinki.... oh, right, that was just not as often, wasn't it ;):lol:

The LCD screen on the back tends to eat the batteries much more than the sensor. At least that's what I found with my Olympus P&S. It would go on for ages without the LCD on. Use the LCD, I was changing batteries for a pasttime.

If only it were that easy...

Hehe - Yeah. I wish.


I remember those!!! I had the four sided ones. the little cubes with one flash on each side.

I remember those. I had that type on the Kodak Instamatic I was given. I had the one that needed the battery pack between camera and flash. Later versions the flash cuble went on the camera itself.

[cfpackerfan]

I thought you'd stopped drinki.... oh, right, that was just not as often, wasn't it ;):lol:
I said MMmmm.... I didn't say I wanted some. :p ;) I've been doing really well in that area. But I sure would like a cup. :lol: :lol:

[Pete]

Too late for coffee/tea now....

Hot chocolate... Mmmmmm

[cfpackerfan]

Mmmmmmmm.... with some peppermint schnapps. Mmmmmm

I guess I give off some kind of warning signal :lol: They have gotten pretty good at confining their stacking sickness to their bedrooms :)THe boys' dad was a stacker. I thought I got rid of all my stacking problems by going to the root. Apparently it was contagious. I'm now somewhat afflicted so I make sure my furniture does double duty. . . for example, my end tables are really cool wooden file boxes on wrought iron stands. My place is too small to waste space sos things must do duoble duty when possible (although still look ~wu)

[misspix]

Are we gonna get to see some wedding pics Terri?
Probably will be Wednesday. I spent more time than I had planned culling and converting yesterday. Haven't gotten to the fine tuning yet :rolleyes:

'Tis my mom's fault I am a stack-o-phobe.
She stacks EVERYTHING. When mom and dad had a house fire a few years back, we went to help them clear out some things so repairs could begin.
In my mothers front room, under the end table; magazines. From the 70's :shock:
I had to go outside and breathe, lol!

Funny shots Lisa. :)

thanks Jim

Me too!!
I'll probably be incontinent before I ever again get a chance to be incorrigible.:( OR perhaps I'll just be incapacitated and the chance will come and I will be unable to recognize it.:cry:

well you'd better start working out your "incorrigibleness" missy because I expect it to be in full gear by spring! :lol:

I'll work on it.

DO...because I think we should work on some Twins Trouble photos ourselves!:lol:

[Permagrin]

Beautiful Lisa:)

thanks Zaney :)

How's Marq today? And Leyla (I should have asked about her first, in the order of things but since Marq was in more dire straits, I guess I was thinking of him...)

[T.D.]

I was hoping he'd come on and tell himself :lol:

Why in the world would I want to do that???

Truth be told, I was merely taking a picture. Somebody decided to take a picture of me doing it. It was a particularly unflattering pose (and the darned photo I took isn't even that great :rolleyes:).

What Ms. Permie seems to be forgetting is the whole concept of payback.

One must be careful when not familiar what others may have in their arsenal of unflattering shots before they tread into such territory. Just saying.

;):p;):p

Everyone is well, thanks:). Marq is fine. We trotted him out and he is going just like normal. He lacerated the inside of one leg with the studs on the opposite shoe but it ultimately is superficial. Lacerations I can treat.

Nice jacket Permi!! I remember when you posted a link about wanting one.

[short5]

Nice shots Scott they are fine looking people.

Do you guys not have lens hoods because you yous CP filters? Do you always use a CP for landscape stuff? Inquiring minds want to know.

Dan's hood is built onto the lens - it just slides out...

CPs sometimes. Depends on the lighting. ND Grads sometimes. Also depends on the lighting.

I tend to use the lens hoods. Although not on the 24-105. It seems pointless to me (it's so tiny)

[Permagrin]

lol...I was making a funny face :lol::lol:


and Crissa, that is the jacket...I broke down and bought it...and it's SO warm and cozy!

[Becky N]

I also love and tenderly care for my cast iron skillets. A good cared for and seasoned cast iron skillet is more stick free than Teflon any day providing there is a bit of fat or oil in the pan.

Yep, I've gone to all cast iron for my cook pans.

I finally posted funny shots from the trip:

yeah, I hate the 24-105's hood...and it depends on what I'm shooting if I use the hood. I should use it more but I don't.

Nice shots Scott they are fine looking people.

Do you guys not have lens hoods because you yous CP filters? Do you always use a CP for landscape stuff? Inquiring minds want to know.

The lens I had on there is the 400 f/5.6. It has a built in lens hood. True, I don't use the lens hood very often, but I try to make sure I have the hood attached backwards on the lens in case I do need it (to defeat lens flare). With a CP on, I don't use the lens hood as the hood gets in the way of "dialing" the CP to appropriate "strength". In the above pics, we were on our way to photograph some kite surfers on the Columbia and I wanted to use the CP. There wasn't much sun out, so the CP really didn't make much of a difference. :rolleyes:

That's the way it was out there, Becky. Very, very vibrant colors. TD and I both had to back off of our saturation when processing the shots as it was so "hot".

[Permagrin]

Lisa your nice shots are gorgeous, those colors look like they are on fire they are so brillant.

thanks...really the colors were so fabulous...we often (and this is BIG for our group) were rendered speechless...

[Miniflash]

Permi you look stylish in that coat ..:) nice pic of you
Hey funny pics of the puddles in trouble ..
Hi everyone ~

[timbernet]

and Crissa, that is the jacket...I broke down and bought it...and it's SO warm and cozy!

And Dan was making odd noises and whimpering when we were talking about what would happen if you spilled coffee on the coat by accident... :D

[timbernet]

Which doesn't happen often (and doesn't last for long)

Yep, I've gone to all cast iron for my cook pans.


Depending what I am making, I like a pan sauce, so my stainless skillets get a lot of use. Truth is I like to deglaze the pan with a bit of Madeira or sherry. I dip the pan to catch the flame from the burner and get that great big fire ball as the alcohol burns off. It is a way to play with fire while cooking:D
