Gary and Taylor were operating a radio controlled airplane today. It took off, flew, flew into a tree and became stuck, then they got it unstuck. Taylor repaired it, and it’s ready to go again. Click on images for a larger view.

Correction, that’s 8/23
Tommorrow 8/24 is the worldwide photo walk. OK. I’m excited about the Prescott Photo Walk! Gary and I will be there, cameras in hand.
We recently bought Adobe Lightroom 2. We’re learning our way through it, so far it seems to be “camera raw on steroids” plus some additional new functions. I like the ability to save presets – a set of parameters – and them apply them to images later on. On the downside, Lightroom 2 is a resource pig. This is the first program that feels slow on my MacBook Pro. It used all 2 GB of ram, so I bought 4 GB and this helped a lot. Memory has gotten inexpensive, I found 4 GB of PC5300 ram for less than $90 including shipping. Installed it this morning. The Macbook Pro has 2 memory slots, so I had to take out the original 2 GBÂ and replaced it with 4 GB on 2 simm’s. Anyone want to buy the original 2 GB?
I also bought an ebook on Lightroom from Michael Clark. I really like ebooks for anything but fiction. They are PDF files, so they are searchable. And trees do not have to die. I just started with the book so I don’t have an opinion on it yet.
