Beautiful official opening!
And I thought that the bug was the first one... :-)

omg -- looks so nice!!!

here in St Louis for my taste - the pools never warm up enough to swim -- especially after spending 44 years swimming in Houston..... sometimes down there I could even swim during the winter - certainly in November.
I occasionally go to the YMCA - a least it is climate controlled. :-))

Bill, we have solar on the roof for the pool. I don't get in until it's either too hot or the water is over 90. Right now it's 104 outside and the pool is 85. You see where I am....in the air conditoning at my computer. :)

Ya no pic ever of that I bet. You could make history! It's like the swimming with the dolphins... Big attraction for tourists. You could be rich + famous lmao

haha - me too!!

although I went to the Wild Bird Sanctuary with Christopher this morning (600 photos to distill down....) I still have about 4000 other pics already shot that haven't been processed yet - but I would rather shoot raw and have control over output than let the camera decie for me as jpegs!!! :-))

I usually plan my shoots as well as possible - but I take sort of a photojornalist view on shooting and have my camera on constant shutter...I'd rather throw away 300 out of 500 than miss the one shot of the eagles talking to each other..:-))

ooooh...I have eagles talking to each other to look forward to? That's gonna sweet for sure.

I shoot in raw, too, but never use them. LOL I throw away 90% of my shots and the ones that I post here are okay but not good enough to edit the raw image. Not good at that anyway. Oh..and Corel doesn't even support the E3 so I have to use the camera's software and it's just not as sofisticated. I even went as far as to email Corel and ask them about supporting that camera. The camera came out right after the new software. Not gonna happen according to the reply that I got. And to think that I've been a Corel user since about 1988!
