Another from my little stroll around Savannah...what I found myself doing, was rather than looking for things happening, I looked for interesting light and then waited there for something to happen...let it come to me...this guy in his St. Patricks Day Jacket with the little girl was perfect...in my head I was hearing the Pink Floyd opening for Goodbye Blue Sky..."Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the sky" ...except that daddy was there...

Look Daddy, An Aeroplane Up in the Sky

Not movies but the TV series "Adventures of Superman" that ran from 1952 to 1958. I was 7 years old when this series went on the air, hence the reference to "older" members.

A "super" man who was impervious to bullets, yet ducked when the empty gun was thrown at him.

I find myself frequently asking my kids "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?"

Thanks for posting this Gene, a throwback to my childhood, I remember watching this series back in the 60s with the wonder and awe that only 5 year old could understand, things have certainly changed since then.

Never quite made the link based on your user name and Pink Floyd, Floyd and King Crimson were a big influence in my musical tastes back in the day, still listen to them daily.

I always wondered but never asked...Pink Floyd is my number 1 favorite band...when I went off to college I owned 14 CDs...all of them were Pink Floyd. I own the entire catalog on CD and digital now...

I was the same. There was a period in my life when it was all I listened to. Nowadays not so much but I still enjoy it from time to time

I arrived in Prague today for 4 days but didn’t bring a camera! I was so hungover this morning from a works night out that when I was packing I couldn’t even deal with the decision of what to bring . I just brought the osmo pocket instead. My plan is to take lots of random footage and have a go at putting together a short travel video with lumafusion on the iPad. I bought the app the other day but haven’t used it yet

Thoughts on the Samyang AF 85MM F1.4 FE lens?

IQ looks pretty good, I think AF will be the most interesting area along with price.

they are alluding to fast AF based on the design. The center element looks like it only needs little movement to travel the range.

Will likely get one once the price drops, 1.4 lens that weighs about as much as the tamron..... I'm just sad it's not a 135 with those size specs, but I dont mind owning both a fast 85 and 135.....
