    Nikon 300mm lens dilemma

    The crane and geese will be arriving at the Bosque soon and I need to make a decision about a lens.

    Processors and Video Cards

    I've had my computers (desktop and laptop) for 6 and 5 years respectively, and am going to buy a new one this summer. I have two questions: 1. i5 vs i7 - - - obviously i7 would be better, but is it worth an extra 200 bucks? 2. What is the basic difference between the Radeon and NVidia GE...

    A personal note . . .

    Slightly, but not much, off topic: I apologize to anyone who tried to send me a PM recently. I just got a notice that my "mailbox was full". I took care of it so please feel free to resend :-) This forum is so much like "real life" it scares me sometimes.

    Pinterest and Copyright

    I have tried to use Pinterest but cannot in good conscience "copy" someone else's work (written or photographic) --and that is what you are doing when you "pin" something. If you check some of the boards, you'll see there is no credit given to the original author. If you click the photo, yes...
