Its what I call a "reminder message" And we get them on the LUG weekly for years. A reminder that yes I have a nice chunk of my net work invested in camera gear which I buy and sell, trade rather with glee but my priorities for dealing with whatever image I make with this gear is low. I really don't want to lift a finger. I just want more gear. Photography doesn't interest me. Its very important for these guys to remind us of that on a timely bases. "Your joy of photography means nothing to me". "Do I really have to spend 50 bucks to buy softwear to tweak these images? Plus learn how to use that software?" On the LUG in the 90's we'd have guys who really went through a lot of gear with no images to show for it but with opinions to validate supposedly the trade. We'd tease them and tell them that the film going through the camera can wear down the rails and devalue thier precious investment. "Whatever you do don't take pictures with it." "oh really gee I didn't know that!" On 10/13/15 4:00 AM, "Spencer Cheng" <spencer at aotera.org> wrote: > Hi Richard, That maybe be true but my spare time is bit limited right now.
