Pea....honest...my gear has been that wet and wetter on many occasions....you just wipe it off and keep on shooting. You should have seen the wet gear the day we shot cherry blossoms in DC.....

Well, it's good to know it won't ruin anything. But I would still be freaking out.

I spread a bag of wildflower seeds around the backyard last fall. I am hoping to see some start coming up soon.

What kind of wildflowers?

It would me, too. I know a little water wouldn't harm my camera equipment, but it still makes me queasy...

I wasn't worried at all...

<----Has enough tile tools to outfit two crews, just too bad they are are with me, too far away to do any good.

I could always use another holiday, maybe Unca Ick could use a helper.

<-----has set a fair bit of tile, can cut and fit tile, comes with own tile saw.

Better than that was the looks we got from people a we stood in the rain, in the pitch dark at 11:30 at night, cameras blazing away on tripods

LISA! that is a super neat shot! And I'd love to see it in a collage of sorts with other coffee shots.

So, what you're saying, is that if we get the tile, you and Wade can get it set in a weekend?

Thanks Cat. I'm going to finish the set of them today. My goal is to have them printed up HUGE and put on those huge empty walls above my counter tops.

Because Weims are nuts and need special attention, right? People think they are adorable puppies but did no research into the breed, right?
People have no idea that Weims have separation anxiety and a CRAZY high energy level, right?
And as soon as they aren't adorable little puppies anymore, they want to dump their 'unruly uncontrollable dog' on someone else, right?

Yeah. People are nuts.

I never knew that about that.

CrazieCricket wrote in post #9625213
No, I think the people she comes across want them for hunting and showing. From what she says, Weims take longer to train for such things, as they are slower to mature than your average hunting dog. So, people get frustrated and give up on their dog. Others just get dumped for whatever reason. Probably the reasons you stated.

wow, I can see that (having nearly gave up on Kona ourselves) but I'd have to really trust the person who trained him to not make him awful.

very nice!! Is this with the 70-200? I'm seeing sharper shots with this than I have from you 100-400. And with NO IS, I'm beginning to wonder if it's your 100-400 & not your ability to hold it still, that is the problem after all.

just had to let it dry out in the warm air

But the snowman did survive on the way into work:

even though I know it will be all right, I HATE it when I see a camera like that.

Glad your postman survived If he rings twice today though....

LOL!

well I love this shot. I didn't take it, my dad did. But whenever I see it, I wonder what "could have happened" if the course of life shifted just a little bit right then.
