General Wedding and Hannah Montana Chit Chat Thread... (Part 5)

[Tommy]

Stu.... sorry to hear that! :(

I hope the surgery goes well, and you make a speedy recovery! Be sure to keep us all filled in! ;)

[tsw910]

sorry to hear about that Stu .. hope you recover fast !!! and be well

[sapearl]

Thank you for the kind words Leesa - the whole thing was really wierd. About 2 weeks ago the back of my left shoulder starting aching, with pain radiating down my left arm. Then one week ago I had a really bad sneeze which really racked the pained area.

The next day it took me 20 minutes just to get dressed, which was total agony. Jeanne came home from work and rushed me to the emergency room where we stayed for 10 hours. One complication was the wedding I had to shoot this past Sunday; fortunately the fellow who did my daughter's wedding was able to fill in for me.

The doc was shocked at my neck x-rays and MRI, and thought that I'd either been in some sort of traumatic accident, or had been playing tackle football way to long. Neither is the case.

Basically my spine needs work, has been compressing down - BIG surprise.... no prior warning, and tomorrow they will shore it up with some metal plates and other devices. My attitude after meeting with the neurosurgeon: "How soon are you available; bring it ON, Let's DO IT!"

I've got too much I want to do yet at my ripe young age of 57, and want to put this behind me as quickly as possible so I can get on with life.

[sapearl]

Thank you Tom - appreciate it. The pain I can more or less deal with, the inactivity will kill me; I'm not used to sitting around.

Stu.... sorry to hear that! :(

I hope the surgery goes well, and you make a speedy recovery! Be sure to keep us all filled in! ;)

[sapearl]

Well Tom, I look on the bright side - I have health care PLUS a wonderful wife who has also been a nurse for 42 years. She has been taking ABSOLUTELY terrific care of me.

Also, this was pretty much at the end of my shooting season but 09' is probably going to be a bust for me - oh well, could be worse.;)

sorry to hear about that Stu .. hope you recover fast !!! and be well

[LeesaB]

Did anyone get some kind of letter from canon about a canon account?

Some kind of forum or something because I registered some items?

Not sure if it's real or not...

[tsw910]

no, i didnt get anything from canon besides their usually stuff ..

oh btw .. i got the 17-40 !! .. can't wait to try it out

[tsw910]

oh the reviews for the 50D just posted on DP-review and all i have to say is ROFL ... just in case anyone was thinking about getting one ..

[LeesaB]

let me know how you like that 17-40

no 50D for you huh? I think I'll get a used 5D to back up what I have one day! we will see or another 40 I love my 40

[tsw910]

i dont know leesa .. once you use that 5D .. i dont think it'll be a back up much LOL

yeah, i am going to have a real world test next sunday when i shoot a wedding and i'll report back on how i like it .. if i dont .. i can always return it back to B&H

[LeesaB]

Hmm.... You are probably right, I'm just trying to deceive myself

[JimAskew]

Hello there my friends ...... it has been a while, and not of my choosing. I probably won't be checking in for some time to come. It all depends upon how my surgery goes tomorrow morning.

I'll try to give the short version - typing is difficult in spite of the pain meds :confused: Out of the blue, I've been hit with a herniated disk, and doc is going to see how much of it he can repair Friday. The operation will be about 4 hours, I won't be able to drive for 6 weeks, and they are saying I'll have to wear one of those "collars" for 6-12 months.

Needless to say, my active photography life has now been put totally on hold. - Stu
Stu,

I am so sorry to hear this...I wish you a successful surgery and a speedy recovery. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

[JimAskew]

You know... I LOVE to read! But lately I don't have much time to. :(

and I hate to read, but lately I've been reading more and more...
I finally have finished book seven in the Harry Potter series. I was very happy with how it ends up...and she left it wide open for a sequel. I am now re-reading the Nero Wolfe series...starting with book one...Fer De Lance :)

Reading is an important part of my life...I read every night before I got to bed...keeps the mind free of work and issues.

Tom,

Super! You will love it. Be sure and post some photo samples when you get them :)

[kja]

Stu - good luck with the surgery and here's to a speedy recovery!!

My November bride confirmed yesterday so I'm happy to have something to do on that Monday evening :) Looking forward to it ... she's included a dvd so I have to brush up on that as I haven't made one in ages LOL Must find the software code as the ProShow Gold was on the laptop that bit the dust and I need to download it to the new one now...

My August bride with the album LOVES it and so it will be heading off to print as soon as I tidy up a couple of images. I can't wait to see it...it's the largest one I've made and I think it will be awesome.

[Jon]

Good luck on a speedy recovery, Stu . . .

[LeesaB]

every night before bed I do a sudoku puzzle or two, but now I'm on more advanced and sometimes it takes me a few nights to finish one....they are amazing! :-)

[kja]

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Play this fun game (http://www.brandextract.com/catbowling/default.asp) hehehee to celebrate!

[Tommy]

Yes Lisa, I got one too... but I haven't checked it out yet. Apparently it's something new that Canon will be doing, but people that registered certain equipment were invited to check it out first... ???

[LeesaB]

I did not like the email it came from, so I passed for now, I figure if from canon it would be from canon.com, not whatever that was....

So, not real sure about it.

[Tommy]

I don't know... I only looked at it on my blackberry for now, so I didn't see the address it came from... I'll inspect it fully a little later and report back. But for now, I just got back from trick-or-treating and have a ton of candy to sift through... gotta make sure it's safe for Chloe! ;)

[LeesaB]

Let me know Tom, tonight is TV night!!! so I won't be around much!

[Tommy]

Let me know Tom, tonight is TV night!!! so I won't be around much!

It's legit... after logging in, they had all my information from when I registered my old products... name address, even the serial numbers of the products I registered...

I'll take a look tomorrow at what all you can do on the new site...

[LeesaB]

I'm trying to get in, but all I get are errors right now...I'll try tomorrow!

[thekid24]

im being agreeable

[JimAskew]

Good luck on a speedy recovery, Stu . . .

Jon,

I have not read any of Taylor's books. I looked her up last night and her stories sound like fun...her settings are like the the old TV series "Murder She Wrote." I think I'll order one off Amazon.com and give it a try...thanks for the tip.

[Maureen Souza]

Good morning, Jim!

Eh, do I want to know why Hannah Montana is mentioned in the heading for this thread??

[LeesaB]

Good morning everyone.

I have a wedding tomorrow, and I cannot wait, it's small and intimate and the groom is a real bear! It will be a challenge but,, I love a good challenge! Can't wait to shoot again! wow!

[LeesaB]

OH wow!!!!

Just got an email....

There's going to be a HUGE new photography "network" with big names....

Bambi Cantrell, Denis Reggie and Joe Buissink

I am so flipping excited about this, not sure if it's going to be on TV or internet.

I'll let you know when I find out more! WOW! BIG BIG BIG

[Tommy]

[sidx001]

Morning everyone!! Gas is down to $1.94, it's going to be sunny with a chance of showers with a high of 69 degrees! It's another gorgeous day in paradise today!

Shot the last of the volleyball season last night, it was a heartbreaker of a game.

[LeesaB]

Hey James and Tom...

Did you see the link for the show? I believe it's going to be webcasts....

I'm really pumped about this...

[sidx001]

Webcasts wuold be great!...uh, Lisa, can you slow down the slide show?! It's kinda fast! I need to be able to appreciate the picture before the next three come up!! :D

[Tommy]

Hey James and Tom...

I'm really pumped about this...

No... I didn't see any links...

[LeesaB]

[sidx001]

I love the pictures!! but some of them pass by too fast for me to "see" them! Plus, I didn't have my sound on :oops:

[LeesaB]

[sidx001]

opps....

WOOT!!! I'm in! :)

[LeesaB]

Yeah, this is gonna be big! Joe alone is a reason to join! he's a great photographer and speaker!

[sidx001]

:D yep, it makes a lot more sense with the music playing!!

[sidx001]

<<<swinging to the tunes....

[LeesaB]

LOL, that is funny....I just never think of no sound

[LeesaB]

You can still adjust it, but honestly to make that took me less then 5 minutes. saving it and all.

But it has controls I just never messed with them before.

It's pretty cool

and Luke has a program you can buy that allows you to burn those to CD but it's only PC based right now. Luke is hmm Lukearms I think is his SN on here or WFF.

Okay folks...

My first attempt at home made pizza...dough was really good just baked a bit too long

My G10 "Down & Dirty" Review:

Bottom Line: I love this P&S camera! It has a permanent home in my glovebox

Pros:

- Built like a "brick"
- Small, compact...how did they cram all the features into such a small box?
- Sharp, contrasty photos
- Has SLR-like controls to include a wheel on the back
- Has dial up ISO and Exp Comp on top of the camera for quick access
- Constant f/2.8
- IS
- 5X zoom
- Reasonable battery life (400-1,000 shots depending on LCD use)
- P, Tv, Av modes on dial up
- Large LCD display
- Live view with real time histogram
- Has an optical viewfinder as well as "live view" LCD...this is a deal maker for me...LCDs don't work in bright sunlight!

Cons:

- Photos at ISO > 400 are the grainy pits...Noise Ninja is a must...come on Canon...you can do better than this!
- It is almost too small for my big hands
- It no longer has the folding LCD display...this was a trade off to get a larger LCD display
- The world's smallest and most "gobblygook" filled User's Manual I have ever seen! I downloded the manual at work (Shhh...) and printed me an 8x10 copy in a GBC binder...at least I can read it now. As for the content, well.....

Here are two photo samples:

[LeesaB]

Thanks for that Jim, I think I'll go for th g10 over a used g9

** needs to find where Jim parks his car** :-)

[LeesaB]

as promised

You promised us that?

[JimAskew]

You're welcome, Lisa. A P&S is a must for me after missing a wonderful photo op a couple of months ago. So, I decided to get a quality P&S and keep it with me at all times. The G10 isn't cheap but it is a quality product that produces quality photos.

[LeesaB]

I've had my hands on one a few times at B&H, love the way it feels and was amazed at it's features...

Things I need to get yet so...we wait! :-) Plus I have a house that needs to get finished so we can move on down.

[thekid24]

You promised us that?
yup if i put on the joker makeup...i would post a pic.....there ya have it.

[LeesaB]

back from our fast, intimate wedding/reception....very nicely done...

I need to read more carefully.

I cant stand that damn alarm noise, it brings back bad memories of hearing it of a morning and knowing that i have to go to WalMart to work.:confused::(:cry:

I dont even like hearing it in commercials....

[SuzyView]

Jared you are funny.

I haven't been here for a while. So many great pictures.

Jim, you know I would love to buy ANYTHING right now, but being responsible and all, spent my money on food this week. I haven't worked in weeks because my little guy's had a cough. I'm going to be so poor this year. :(

Great review on the camera Jim! I am intrested in getting one, maybe I can give my Fugi P&S to my husband, then justify a new one for me in a month or so.:D

Your tree shots are always spectacular, beautiful shot!

Thanks for commenting on all my posts, you're a trooper! lol I always enjoy looking at other peoples work and I get ideas from doing so. So I figured others might gain some ideas from looking at mine. I usually don't wait an entire month then post a whole bunch though, don't think I'll do that again as it was kind of confusing at times. lol

Stu,

Thank goodness for that. Now you take it easy and heal up fast :-)

[LeesaB]

Yeah!!! I'm glad you are okay!!!! and typing WOW!

[LeesaB]

Well, the back of the house is about done...

The reason why most of the back part of the house has no windows is because that is where the addition is going to go! :-)

So, it's slowly coming....He's one man doing all the work himself. He's awesome at what he does....

[sapearl]

hello Jim - good seeing you :D. Thanks; I'm sure I'll deal with the low level pain now and discomfort but the real challenge will be to tolerate that neck brace 24x7. Hopefully I'll heal fast and the doc will give me a quick dispensation.

Stu,

Thank goodness for that. Now you take it easy and heal up fast :-)

[sapearl]

Hey Leesa - my typing is a bit challenging.... usually have to do it over it at this poit :rolleyes:. Been out of it for while, so is this the new Missouri house that Jim has built? Quite an accomplishment there.

Yeah!!! I'm glad you are okay!!!! and typing WOW!

[kja]

Hi, All! I had a good weekend because I got to head out for a dive yesterday :) I'll probably put a thread up eventually over in wildlife, but here's a head shot of a different kind - this is a Moridilla brockii nudibranch.

Hi Stu...

Just redoing, we totally tore out the inside, we are almost at painting, inside, then the floors and cabinets etc...

the addition will hold my office, a master bedroom/bath and family room. But it may be spring now before that happens, but that is okay, I can work with it...I can work with it,,,did I say I can work with it!!! LOL

You seem to be doing very well..

[kja]

OK, got organized ... Here's some more underwater shots (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6610211#post6610211) from yesterday if anyone wants to have a peek...comments always appreciated!

[sapearl]

Sounds like you guys are accomplishing a lot - that's terrific. By the time you are done it should be just the way you like.

Well, I'm hanging in there. The whole pain management thing with they way they made the incision on the front of my throat, takes some getting used to. It sort of feels like somebody punched me in the throat whenever I try to swallow. There's also the constant unpleasant, rigid pressure of the neck brace.... but I will survive. The pain pills help, but it's nothing I want to get in a regular habit of using ;).

Lisa - looks like the house is really coming along! Great that hubby is good at that sort of thing.

[sapearl]

Thank you Kristin - I'm doing my best to maintain a positive attitude and put this behind me. My wife the nurse has been absolutely super too, taking wonderful care of me. She even shaves me, and what a wonderful difference that makes :D; can't tell you how much better I feel afterwards.

Stu - sorry to hear of the discomforts! I hope that goes away super fast and that your recovery is quick.......

Stu, it's great to see you and I'm glad you did well with the surgery. Sounds like you are pretty uncomfortable right now, sorry to hear that, but it sounds like you are keeping a positive attitude about the whole mess.

Okay Tommy dear, please don't hate me, I am going to be honest.

#1 is GREAT, I love it! Great look, pose, B&W conversion, nice lighting.
#2 is reall good too, great idea & pose, BUT the shoes are lost in the BG and unless you look real close you miss the heel hooked in her string. White shoes next time!:D
#3 ...here goes...I like the lighting and the idea but the pose IMO is HORRID!:lol: To me it looks like she is either ready to play leap frog, or ......this is bad....she reminds me of one of those half human/half horse creatures in fairy tales.

Sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy!

[Tommy]

Sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy!

No one should ever be sorry for their opinions. ;)

Personally, the third is one of my favs... lol... and thanks for your input! :D

[kja]

#2 is reall good too, great idea & pose, BUT the shoes are lost in the BG and unless you look real close you miss the heel hooked in her string. White shoes next time!:D

No, god, please no to the white shoes!

How about a different background color? How about a little back light?

Red shoes are always good.

But dear god no white stilettos :confused:

LOL sorry, Kathy!

[Tommy]

#2 is reall good too, great idea & pose, BUT the shoes are lost in the BG and unless you look real close you miss the heel hooked in her string. White shoes next time!:D


Check it now... I dodged the shoes a little. ;)

Personally, the third is one of my favs... lol... and thanks for your input! :D

Maybe it's because I'm female. lol When I look at #3 longer I can get past it, but for some reason it just hits me as minotaur. DAMN!

Please don't be offended by this, but this is why it does that to my vision!
http://www.craigbrasco.com/blog/minotaur.jpg

[LeesaB]

I'm still looking at 3. can't figure out what to do, maybe a knee down, or two sitting on her legs?

I really LOVE 2, what a cute idea...I think a back light may have helped.

[kja]

Tommy -

That does make a huge difference. Nice change.

I adore #1.

#3 doesn't work for me either ... the squat thing is a tough one, imho.

[LeesaB]

yikes Kathy... LOL....where did you get him from?

[Kathy H]

EXCEPT....the girl is beautiful! It's just the pose! lol OMG!:lol:

Kathy - LOL I love the cartoon example!

Yeah, that's what my husband said when I showed it to him too. So I guess it's a girl thing, but I wouldn't like it any better if it was a man posed like that! Well, I don't think I would anyway...hahahahahahaha! hummmmmmmm

[Maureen Souza]

I have been sitting in front of my MESSy desk for 2 hours trying to figure out where to put everything. Obviously I have no clue because I haven't touched it yet.:rolleyes:

[kja]

Maureen - don't say "messy" where Lisa can hear you. She's a little compulsive about that kind of thing!

I hear you though. My desk is under control but the house and yard are not. Hubby is away for most of the month and I've promised myself that I will simply get in and have it all done - bar HIS office - before he gets back. One little thing at a time...I just hope a month is long enough :D

[LeesaB]

Did I hear the M word???????????

Mine is not just messy, mine would nearly qualify for HOG STY in fact the whole place kind of resembles that right now.

Nice av Mo! lol

[kja]

LOL Kathy - I think our place would give you a run for the money. Hubby started lots of projects before he left ... and parts of them are all over the house and backyard...

[thekid24]

Well you party poop! Come on Jared, you could do it for men-kind! lol
shoot if im posing like that...it better be for one person...and it would have to be my gf..lol

[Kathy H]

I can't imagine anyones being worse than mine right now, I have done NOTHING but work on pictures for nearly a month. Hubby & son run the dishwasher, washer & dryer and ummmmm, that's about it!

I am praying some other member of my family wants to have Thanksgiving at their house this year! I do not want to have it here, it will take me a week just to find the kitchen! lol

[Kathy H]

shoot if im posing like that...it better be for one person...and it would have to be my gf..lol

Once again you have proven that you really are a good guy!:D

You're a sweetheart Jared!

[Kathy H]

Bedtime!

Good night all!

I feel so much better, Kath!:lol::lol::lol:

The wild turkeys were all over Hawaii and I had a blast walking right out the front door into a flock of them in the yard.

[Belmondo]

Interesting shots, Mo.

Is there such a thing as a dermatologist for turkeys?

[kja]

Not an attractive bird, really LOL

I love the portrait of him!

[Maureen Souza]

They have so many different kinds and colors of feathers, hanging hair on the chest and that waddle. I think they are so interesting looking, myself.

[Claire]

yikes, scary turkey!

[LeesaB]

Morning!

and Jared/Kathy not to be-labor the squat pose, but I remember last night a shot I saw, on POTN also, of a guy, a pilot, squatting down in front of his helmet. It was in G/N and it was a pretty awesome shot.

Sooooo....with that said...

It'd a beautiful day here in paradise :-)

[Tommy]

hello?? Where is everyone?!?!
