We have had a couple of rain free days and actually got to sit outside -- our newest little chipmunk made an appearance.

Thank you to Dave for his pictures of Silver Falls State Park in Oregon! I searched the park out and we went there today. What a beautiful place!

We had the Liberal Party Convention last weekend. I volunteered and had a great time. I took this picture of Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada while he was speaking to Liberal Party Delegates at the Manitoba Farewell Party at the Hotel Fort Garry, Winnipeg. Right after I took it, I got to shake his hand:

Justin:

 

After seeing more of your photos, I still could not find too many coins in the sofa - but your shots convinced me - got a used 70mm-300mm FE from B&H at a price I really could not afford - but it was a 9+ rating!

 

June 10th delivery date!

Last week me wife and I were at an all-inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta, MX. I had to take a picture of this sign. I thought the English part was nothing more than a typo but after experiencing the terrible service we received at the restaurants I think the sign was a warning. :)

It wasn't me spending your money for a change!

 

If it's any consolation, Justin has cursed me with a need for the FE 70-300 as well.

 

Still unsure whether to bless or damn him for that but I'm leaning toward bless with the quality of the photos he's pulling from it.

Justin convinced me to buy the lens for nature photography after looking at his pictures, just do not have the same location, even though live in Florida. Would be nice to have that much wild life here in Ormond Beach. Did get this shot in the backyard. lol

It's obvious you have greater control over your impulses than I do! :-)

I guess I'm the one dressed in red, standing on your left shoulder...

 

"you want that FE70-300mm! - Comeon, you don't need to pay that mortgage payment this month...let the kids eat crackers for dinner!"

[tommui987]

.let the kids eat crackers for dinner!"

 

Made arrangements to sell my first-born - except she lives in NJ!

I picked this sunset shot from a week with dozens of candidates for Picture of the Week because it has a stark, apocalyptic feel that was the exact opposite of how the week really was.

 

World's End
