June 2026 - I confess that AI images have kind of spoiled things here for me. I'm here for the photography primarily. I'm not against AI images when they are labelled as AI. I appreciate the work people put in to their creations. It can take imagination and in some cases humor. But nowadays when I look at a photo the first thing I have to do is try to determine if it is a photo or an AI creation. Not everybody is honest about it. Having to inspect and evaluate a image first thing is kind of spoiling me fun.

August 6, 2022 - Thanks for looking at my profile page. I am a hobby photographer who is working on technical skills and having fun. I'm a shooting with a Canon EOS Rebel T6i these days and I just started using Lightroom but so far haven't had much free time to dabble with it. Too often I'm taking quick snapshots with my iPhone. It is always nice to get some comments. I really appreciate people's opinions. My pictures range from things I just notice, travel excursions, and adventurous stuff... mainly things that catch my attention. I try to put them all in albums so you might want to start there because I've been a bit out of hand with posting like every picture I take.I have been having some trouble with Flickr settings on some of my previously posted pictures. If you are trying to comment on a picture but cannot please let me know. Thanks!"
