Same here. 95 and the pool is open. A bit chilly though, only 80 degrees

We had a low of 30 and high of 67 today, we went from 95+ to 60's within a couple weeks. Today I started prepping our pool for the winter.

nice shot, Omar!

I had my car inspected in record time today, in and out of the inspection station in under 14 minutes. on the 1st of the month!!!

Hi Omar.. What's my boat doing out there? It's the blue one up front.

You moved it there due to the coming winter in the states!

Bummer. We're still swimming daily though at this time of year it's more a quick dunk to cool off. Can't really just lounge around as the water is cooling.

Just in case anyone was ever wondering, getting stung by a yellow jacket on the inside of your mouth is really quite painful. I don't recommend it.

I had that happen to me. I got stung on the tongue. Evidently the little ctritter landed on a bagle I was eating and I ate the bee. Before crunching though, I got a few nice stings on the tongue.

This one thought it'd be a great idea to share my iced tea. I was eating chips and took a swig. I felt it in my mouth but thought it was a piece of chip. It stung my cheek just as I bit down on it.

I was at work at the time, we were driving from one contract to the next. Gave the boss a bit of a scare as he knows that I am rather sensitive to stings. His first question was did I need to go to emerge. I opted for the drugstore. Grabbed some straight up antihistamine. It worked quite fast to control the swelling but it sure sent me for a loopy ride. Managed to get through the next couple of hours running a push mower, but then zonked out for the ride home.

So. I'm processing photobooth pictures in LR 4.3 and the process has become unbearable. I have just about 400 pictures to tweak and I'm about 80% complete. But... Now each photo is taking significantly more time, upwards of 2 minutes to apply just a custom preset. So to even do 25 photo's is taking about 2 hours of time. How do I batch remove the presets from the already processed and exported pictures so that I'm only working on the current group?

I've tried closing LR, optimizing it, restarting the computer, using CCleaner to clear memory and system cache, but the process is just taking longer each time.

Any ideas?

I too have done similar. A bunch of years back I took a swill of beer, and thought who the hell put a cigarette butt in my beer, then it started vibrating I realized it was a wasp, and before I could spit it out, it stung my lip. Took an hour or so for the swelling to go down, then all was good.

A friend of mine did the same and nearly died though. He is allergic, and did not have an epi-pen handy, and was out camping, and got stung taking a drink. It took them almost an hour to get to a hospital, and when he got there he could hardly able to breath at all. He now always carries some sort of man purse with a pen in it.

Can't help. I've pretty much moved away from LR completely.

While I use lightroom for most of my processing, I can't help you either. I haven't had any issues and to be honest I've never used any of the batch type features.

I'm just wondering if using lots of brushes is the culprit? I find myself getting up and doing stuff whilst LR is processing. I also only shot Medium/Fine jpgs this time to make the files smaller for processing.

Are your computer specs well above LR recommended or just barely meets it?

I was going to ask what Traci said. I am using a 2011 Macbook to process and it only slows down a bit when i am doing panoramic stitching. This is with the RAW files from a 36 MP camera.

I have an HP Laptop with Vista an a Canon Xti. So as I shot in Jpg/M, the files are only 2 meg. Same camera, same computer I've been using LR on since LR 3.
