Title: It's gone quiet
Post by: Jeff on November 08, 2010, 08:53:55 AM
There is very little activity forum, I am getting withdrawal symptoms.

I wonder what Mike is cooking up?

Jeff,
Last I heard, he went trick or treating for Halloween, and ate too much candy!
That same night, he couldn't get his mask off, and they called 811 for emergency.
Obviously, Emergency never came, since they should have called 911.

So far, they have tried products  called NEET, and NAIR with no positive results.
I understand that they took him to the Bikini Wax lady as a last resort.
Just a few days ago, Nov. 1st, there was a loud rrrripping sound coming from the Bikini Wax lady's cellar. That was followed by a scream so blood curdling that it could only be described as a sound made by a person who looked at his prints made by an application other than Qimage.

I got a "toot" yesterday (that is a cousin of a tweet) which advised that he should be on solid food by today.

I hope you don't expect ME to rake those leaves, do you?

Really nice shots Jeff.
You captured the moment. That is for sure.

Hi Jeff,
lovely images, thank you.
Not to be out done, we went down to Croome park (National Trust), a week ago on Saturday. The light was poor due to high level cloud at the start of our visit but  as I walked around the very long serpentine lake (courtesy of Capability Brown), the sun broke through. I got excited by cows wading in the lake a-la Constable  ::) and a flock of geese flying over at the right moment.  8)
Enjoy.
Terry

I was mowing up the leaves last Monday but the rear axle mounting on the mower failed, now I have the thing back after repair the land is too wet to get on, what we call sods law.  So we will have the carpet for some time.

You flatter me, what do you want?  ;)
I particularly love your 3rd one with the shadows and leaves, my sort of shot.
This time of year has wonderful light here in the UK to enhance the Autumn colours so it's great to have opportunities to get out there to enjoy and record the scenery.
However, I'm happy that today is typical November, wet & windy here, I can stay in and mount some prints for a competition rather than rake leaves in the garden.  :D
