The main issue used to be focussing, didn't it?

With some. They seem to be having really good success with Lumix point and shoots like I have and a few of the older Sony's with the Zeiss lenses it seems to be as simple as using a well-placed magnet and a screw on filter.

I dug out the Fuji but I'm still leaning towards buying an old Sony, the examples I see done with the older dsc-f707 & f717's look amazing for a cheap mod.

I was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway track eight times this month. Saw a lot of racing, got a good fix. Then, yesterday I got to see a fantastic, really fast race!

Truly a spectacle.

Probably see more of me now that my storage building is set, garden is mostly managed for the summer, giant pile of rocks are spread to extend my driveway width AND the phenomenal month of racing is over, for now. 8)

Forgot to mention, I got to see the new stuff at the IMS Museum as well.

Pretty amazing to see a race car that competed in 1911 at the very first Big Event.
So much to see at the museum.
All the new stuff is a tribute to Mario Andretti's career on the fiftieth Anniversary of his one and only win at The Indianapolis 500. He had so many wins and many championships over his long career, but would only win at Indy once. It is a tough track!

Hurricane season is about to start, so I'm thinking about hoarding some stuff.  :zoinks:

I think I'm going to start with replenishing the bottled water first, since we use some of it every now and then. I'm also going to get a corded phone for the land line. We used to have one but we couldn't find it during the last hurricane and I think it's just gone.  :dunno: Oh, and toilet paper, I should definitely get toilet paper.  :zoinks:

Omg there is an accounting job opening at Walgett Shire Council...
What a wonderful opportunity it would be to live and work in Walgett.... :P
I suppose I could live in the Ridge, Collarenebri or Burren Junction.

^^^ Those are some pretty small towns there. Have you ever lived in towns that small??

The gossiping and politics can become pretty toxic.
