nukecad Posted October 9 ID:1665675 Share Posted October 9 On the subject of farming snails, you might find this amusing too: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9904dz73pyo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted October 9 Author ID:1665748 Share Posted October 9 It is funny, ridiculous and absurd, but I'm calling snails quits now. The trouble is: sometimes "amusing" crosses boundaries. That's already happened a couple times. I'm at my limit. Fall is intended for ordinary autumn images, and daily observations. No need to resurrect past blunders.

NewTricks Posted October 9 Author ID:1665796 Share Posted October 9 Late summer, I saw a boxy looking vehicle with no curves whatsoever. It wasn't until I saw it again Sunday, that I dashed to my camera. If I had been calmer, I could have gotten a good side view. Alas, I only managed this. Tesla CyberTruck. Crazy! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewTricks Posted Monday at 12:05 PM Author ID:1666446 Share Posted Monday at 12:05 PM Recently we've had some unusual bright sunny days. The berries below were perfect for learning more about my photo viewer, irfanview. I'm more confident about all digital interactions, and that led to using different functions. Collages and composites are enjoyable so I'm branching out. The negative (invert image) function allows red, green and blue channels to be applied. The contrast of the original was perfect for this experimentation. Flipping and rotating were fun. The 60's influence is obvious. I never left the colors or the music. Bringing it all together, my Father would often say, "It's the berries!" 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted Monday at 09:26 PM Author ID:1666593 Share Posted Monday at 09:26 PM This is in the front yard of the Victorian looking house from the summer 2024 thread. Along with the single tree here and there, these bushes are the only hint of change to come. It's getting nippy weather-wise. Upper 30's, low 40's. Like those bees and rodents looking for warmer places, NewTricks is too. Walking over 3 miles in chilly light rain is NOT gonna last. The treadmills at the Y can be cranked up to an incline of 6. Good thing they have little emergency stop clips. I wear one, always. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewTricks Posted Tuesday at 09:11 PM Author ID:1666773 Share Posted Tuesday at 09:11 PM Ornamental grass fascinates me. All the why's. Varieties, popularity, sources, zone preference, height......

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted Tuesday at 11:36 PM Root Admin ID:1666796 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:36 PM All pretty until it's next to a drive way and then you're tracking the falling buds into the house. We have a tree that drops little red flowers and seeds on the drive. If it were up to me I'd take the tree out and replace it with another but my wife likes the tree and wants to keep it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTricks Posted Wednesday at 12:21 PM Author ID:1666878 Share Posted Wednesday at 12:21 PM Yes, good point. Sometimes people are blind to those little details. Or consider it a non-issue. But saving time & energy, definitely worth replacing. I suspect that's a battle you have bypassed. This reminds me about the same tracking issues with cat litter.
