Thanks Steady, for offering to help others. I was a Lurker here for about two years and now a Newbie. I have been a Newbie in photography for around 35 years. Thanks for trying to help (ALL OF US) learn to be better at what we love. I hope (THE CATCH) of helping others is catching!
Helloooo Gary.
I enjoyed reading your note.
One newbie to another....I think I will start saying that too..
Bump for absolutely no reason at all other than I evidently have no life at 6:40 am in the slap dab middle of the USA on a foggy Friday morning that I am going to have to do a very boring task at work today so it was just fun to do this bump. (Whew, all that and no punctuation. Would one of you English scholars diagram that sentence for me?)
I've been over checkin' out what Steady has been up to since yesterday afternoon when I dropped him a PM to get the link, and I'm glad I did! Although I'm not one of the more active sorts here on the boards, Ol' Steady Hand, here, has always been a source of insight and inspiration to me everytime I come to visit! That said, it was no surprise to me, then, to experience the tenor of what he's been up to (creating) outside this forum! Kudos to you, Steady!
If you haven't dropped him a line, yet, you might want to rethink that. (The inside track, here? The man has been going full-bore for the past couple of weeks and, me thinks, a few more dozen PMs to respond to might just do the trick and force him into exhaustion! ...Finally!)
Anyhoo, thanks so much for the correspondences, Steady...you're a treat!
Well Steady... Both references work quite well, and even fit the intent.
The group most well known for that song is the 5th Dimension, but a large number of people have done their own version, including Sinatra from what I understand.
Meanwhile... this post will put you back UP in the world of FM!
that's it...."My beautiful my beautiful Ballooooon..."
I saw a Hot Air balloon today flying over the typically wooded hills around here (Birmingham) and I thought:
"Those people must be crazy. Where are they going to land that thing?"
If I go up in a balloon again (I did once to bungee jump in Napa many years ago), I want to know there is a field/pasture or desert or prairie waiting for a soft safe landing.
