The 40th TPBM Random Chat and Zane Recommitment Thread

well, I was going through my galleries today to find Tif's wedding...gads it was buried deep in an old xhd. And I found a few bracketed exposures of Whatcom Falls. I thought, after my post yesterday, I'd try to hdr them...what do you think? So these are real hdr's, not pseudo


1.

Very natural looking Lisa. Nice!

Hale's probably Marlowe's best buddy. He spends a lot of time with Pachie too but P gets bugged with him after a while.

Marlowe? Did you change Taz's name again? I can't keep up, I sure hope the wee kitty can.

aww Jim, you look prettier too. *imagines bedazzled bear*

thought I'd show you how the kitten cloaks himself

Love this one. Glad Hale and the Kracken are getting along so well and I love the Waterfall photos.

There are times when I really hate people. Today, I was leaving the house where I am cat sitting, and noticed something was wrong with the car's license plate - someone had removed the registration sticker. So Monday morning, I have to be late to work, so I can get a new sticker, and hope that I do not get a ticket while at work (Parking enforcement patrols our lot on a regular basis for infractions - ticket would be $38 for not having current registration displayed). I might take our friends car to work tomorrow, and leave ours parked in her parking space.

why would someone do that? It's not like they can be re-stuck on...they don't even come off in once piece usually. What a lousy thing to do.

They say to slice an "X" in the sticker with a razor blade so that it can't be removed without damage. WI now makes theirs all sliced so that it won't come off without damage.

Some people suck.

Why do people steal siding right off houses? Copper pipe or wire out of municipal utility enclosures? Wheels off cars? Giant rubies out of the foreheads of stone statues?

I Dunno...

Some people seem to go out of their way to cause others grief.

Jim it's not all your fault. Don't get yourself all down.

Nice job Lisa, they look really natural but for the slow water.

That sucks, people are savage round the city.

I just had a lovely trip to the grocery store where I got to see a guy who sued me once because I lightly rear ended his rental car causing no damage. He claimed injury and got 4k instead of the 10K he wanted. He was in the rental from another accident he was suing for. I see him all the time, usually in a new vehicle. One day he will be out of the cross walk.

The guy at the butcher counter was texting and when some young girl asked where the T bones were he said nothing nor looked at her for like 15 seconds while he finished his text. He then begrudged sauntered out and pointed to where all the steaks were. She said she didn't see the T bones so he points to the porterhouse. She says those are porterhouse not T-bone. He tells her it is the same thing. While close they are not the same nor the same price. He went back to texting and she had to find her dad to help.

Then of course there is always a pair standing in the aisle talking loudly but they don't move to let you buy. When you say pardon me and squeeze by they look at you like you inconvenienced them.

I need to move.

I'm a cart re-locator. If someone sees me waiting to get through yet proceeds to continue as if I'm not there, or walks down the isle I will take their cart with me and deposit it where I see fit. Some days non verbal communication works best. When they confront me, I simply return the favor and act as if they aren't there and go about my business.
