Now I can post pics, Beware!!

Hey MB...ought to change your nick to RockportRob!
When I opened the thread, the color pic (#2) only loaded about 10%. Had to click on Reload Image to get the whole thing, but then it loaded normally. The B&W shot was very quick.
As a fellow Mainer, I perferred the landscape, but those li'l sweethearts were sure appealing.
I used to do a lot of photography in the old silver and celluloid days (I haven't bought a new camera since my 1959 Rollei)
I wish you well with this endeavor: you seem to have 'the eye'.
 
Gunhou,

Thanks for the compliments:)

Whereabouts in Maine are you? You can email me this info if you'd rather...Or just give the region:)
 
I couldn't seem to reduce this one down and keep the sharpness. This is a snapshot of my dog:D Her name is Meli (maylee).

An interesting concept* Bro and my feeling's as well. The pic makes me want to see what else of beauty lies in the next foot step. And the next.:)


*I say it's an interesting concept because of the so many diffferent perspectives people have of the dark and deep woods. Many do not 'see' the woods as lovely, but as something to be scared of and avoided. To these people the woods portray 'Wilderness.'

John Fire Lame Deer, a Lakota Medicine Man that walked West some time ago, had a quite different concept of 'Wilderness.'
John Fire could never understand why the Yonegi, 'Wasichu' in his Lakota language and meaning 'Eaters of the fat' called his homeland 'wilderness' until he visited New York City for the 1st time.
There with all the barrenness and tall buildings surrounding him John Fire finally understood what the term 'Wilderness' really meant.

I had much rather be without a good knife in the woods, lovely, deep and dark in the night than I had with a good knife in what is wilderness to me, the evil, dark and deep in the night city.
 
And another......

This one doesn't want to work, and I've been messing with it so long that I am ready to kick the Sh** out of this @$##@$# machine! Have to try again later when thoughts of computer homicide have faded:mad:
 
Tell me about it, Rob.

This kodak junker I paid $550 for sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. If I'm on batteries I can take 3 pix and then it drains the batteries so much it won't work.

Sometimes when I'm steady as a rock (after 18 Heineikens) it takes blurred pix. I can lock it in a vice and it still takes blurred pix. If I take pix in every possible mode, turn it off and start over the blur goes away.

When I try to get the pix onto the computer if there are any other applications running sometimes it works, sometimes it won't. When it won't work I have to shutdown the computer, restart and open only Corel to get the pix loaded.

And people wonder why I don't want to post more pix!!!

Not any more! That sounds like a GIANT P.I.T.A. :( Have you tried calling a tech support #. You might ask about returning the camera, or at least sending it in for repair. There is obviously something very wrong with it. Maybe Alan would know more...
 
The camera works like all the rest of my stuff -- sometimes. It's not worth getting repaired. I'll just keep struggling with it until it explodes or disintegrates.
 
Alan was using a Kodak during the SD forest fires, and it ate batteries wholesale. I don't know how he solved it, but being paid by the shot, and not having access to another camera, he must have found something to prop it up.
 
I use the converter so essentially I'm tied to a 110 line if I want to use this camera. It's a 210 series which is probably no longer in production -- and for good reason.
