Blacktop's "Wildlife, Tenne-scenery and all kinds of other stuff" for 2018.

Blacktop · Jan 9, 2018

After wracking my brain (or is it racking my brain?) trying to come up with a clever title like [MENTION=13090]Horoscope Fish[/MENTION]'s "hook line and sinker, This is the best I can come up with.

I blame it on the cold weather causing brain shrinkage.:beguiled:

1. I think your title is rather clever, personally.. :star:

2. The correct spelling is "rack"; meaning to strain with great mental effort.. :applause:

3. It's Hook, Line and Stinker.. :eyetwitch:

Good title except it's a little long to fully display in What's New which is where I generally look for new posts. But now I'll know what it is!

I guess I am slow too. I had to look up "Tenne-scenery" to see what it was. Now that I know, the title seems to be appropriate.

Love the bokeh of these photos. 500's are great cameras for this effect. Paul

Glad to see you post, Pete. Haven't heard from you in a while.

Thanks. Just haven't felt like taking pics the last month or so.

Yes, everything is fine, thanks. I just don't like forcing things, especially when it's a hobby. It's no fun when you feel like you have to do something just for the sake of doing it. I'm really looking forward to the M&G in a few weeks. Will be posting a bunch from there, I'm sure.

Good to hear. I tried the 365 thing twice. It learned a lot, but after a while, it wasn't fun.
I know somebody who used to force herself to read a book each week. How is that fun?
I wish I could go to the M&G, but I have too much going on right now, and the flight would be kind of pricey.

Agreed... When the fun evaporates, it's time to step back.

But you gotta put up with me there

Visited my Mom while we were in Florida, she just moved to Bradenton a few months ago. Took a few shots at the beach.
