Testing two different filters on Nikon D60. Please comment!


Testing UV and Neutral Density filters, alone and stacked. The ND filter can stack on top of the UV but not the other way around. Trying to figure out which to use and when, stacked or not.

A few thoughts on Prop 8

Now that the California Supreme Court has ruled that a simple majority
may take away rights from a minority, where does it stop? Perhaps a
vocal group opposed to left-handed red-haired nearsighted software
engineers will decide I'm not allowed to drive, or own property, or
vote. Everyone is part of some minority; every small group is
vulnerable to victimization by the faceless majority.

For starters, I suggest an amendment to the state Constitution which
removes basic rights from Supreme Court justices.

This weekend…

… along with numerous "little" things like laundry, cleaning, etc,
we removed a broken point-of-use water heater; drained and flushed the
main water heater; took apart, cleaned and reassembled the Dyson
vacuum; moved the portable AC unit from the hall to the guest bedroom–
this involved re-doing the window baffle for a larger window–so it
now cools more of the upstairs area; and purchased and put together
some patio furniture for the SunPorch.

I think we got a lot done. Pleased.
