Didn't think it was rosy, now I just lost my regular job 7 weeks ago due to economic pressures (loss of a major contract by my employer). If it wasn't for SS and a small pension I would be in a...

Then when the worldwide economy takes a dive in about 5-10 years, and nobody has anything on site, you are all shafted with nothing to show for it but a piece of hardware that can't do anything...

Over 4200 total comments on this story in two days. Some kind of a record?
From what I have read almost all negative comments except for a few trolls toeing the Adobe line. This kind of crap might...

The folks at ACD systems are drooling now.
Can't wait for ACDSee pro 7 (I hope) with new tools and still about the price of PSE.

Wonderfully realistic arrangement. Had to look close to find evidence that it is a model.
I used to do similar things with my aircraft models as well. Had many WWII aircraft and would pose the...

As an owner of both cameras, the D7000 and the D7100, I find the new a practical upgrade. The crop mode is very useful shooting sports (baseball) I don't shoot raw so I can't judge if the buffer...

Placed 38^th in the challenge. Taken during a recent Easter Service at my church

Wonderfully timed shot.

Another of my favs.

Perfectly timed. Great shot.

Liked the play of specular reflections and color in this.
I don't usually go for 'artsy' photos but I like this.

Rural peace, very nice.

This was my favorite shot, spectacular play of lightning and clouds!

Great shot of a difficult subject!

Come on, feet, don't fail me now!
