The only thing I can guarantee is that it won't be Sony. I won't be selling my small bag of Sony stuff. It will han...

Re: When ignorance is bliss....

Just saw these shots Sury. And I am jealous of your lens. Looks like it was a great find. And I really like these last two pictures.

Re: Volcanoes, Flowers, and Waterfalls (from a recent trip)

The moonrise our first night of the trip. The moon was nearly full and just crept up over the mountain tops to the right of the camera lighting up the stone fence.

Ahh, grilled wings. It's lunch time. Not the best time to look at photos of food. Or maybe it is the best time.

At any rate, it allowed me to brush up on my tire changing skills. :lol: Here are the cheap cell phone shots of my re...
