Pathfinder

I have been in the midst of flight planning for a trip to Scotland this fall - I have been to Scotland previously a couple times, and had always been able to get a direct flight from Newark to Glascow, but this year, for some strange reason, I …

We need another thread to discuss micro fibres I think - the original thread here was about man made Spider silk for fabric and manufacture. Is the plastic micro fibre matter getting into our water via our washing machines aquatic discharge into …

Polyester and plastic micro residue are alarming, but I understand it poorly. Can these micro fibres pass through a Reverse-Osmosis water filter membrane? Are we going to have to run our laundry rinse water through a similar membrane to prevent …

You have great images and know so much more about lighting than I did when I was a young parent. I was just a kid with a camera. Photography has been a hobby of mine for over 60 years, and now Lightroom is becoming my auxilliary memory. I really …

Naive adults, who never were vaccinated as a child or had measles as a child, are at a high degree of risk. From the link above, a 43 year old flight attendant from El Al airlines, is in a hospital in a coma from measles encephalitis. They may …

Very interesting but this seems to be an announcement of a proof of concept or something - I see no mention of where one can purchase this item....or even fabric made from it. The video demonstrates an excellent skier in powder, but nothing about …

My childeren were all boys so I don't have daughters and their fashions to photograph and neither of my sons are likely to have children at this point, This is my older son, at about 2 - 3 years of age shot with Tri-X circa 1972 - this is actually …

Right now its been raining for two days, and it looks like we have another day of grey dreary skies and muddy back roads before the sun returns. But it will! I would be happy to show you around if you're ever in this neck of the woods - we've got …

That's entertainment! 😄 I hesitated posting my post above, because it could sound rather negative to folks who don't favor my cynical tone at times. Negative, bitter wasn't really my intention, but mild annoyance might be correct. I do think most …

central western Indiana - Vigo County I have lived with shortened distances to horizons due to trees and buildings that I was quite pleased to find this large open area to the sky - and an occasional sky worth capturing. I thought your clouds and …

I like your skies from your walk. After many years living in the midwest, I finally found a location where I can gather great skies with wide open views too, not curtailed by trees - no ocean waves, but grainfields in the summer. This reminds me …

Interesting articles, especially the one that filled in some of the unknown history of the Stanford prison experiment. Interesting that one of the guards had their own agenda to see how far they could push the envelope. I have maintained for …

I'll try to remember to try that if I see the reversed text again. I did try editing within the reversed text flow, and if my memory is accurate, the delete key worked backwards from typical L->R letter flow - but don't quote me on that I am not a …

I had an individual from New York call me, quite annoyed, and ask me why I keep calling him - didn't know him, never knew him, never heard of him and actually only know a handful of people in the New York area, and he wasn't one of them. He was …

Do you ever think that someday, perhaps, thousands of years or millenia in the future, alien archeologists will be digging and screening the "middens" of our current civilization? Our trash piles are our middens, just like we dig up ancient wells …

That sounds like the culprit, but I do not have any idea how it is happening from my end. Thanks for looking into this for me. I am not entering anything but text - wierd!

It is a large pile, "trash mountain" but it is also covered with dirt and growing grass, so it isn't the eyesore you might expect, visually at least.

My error - I am using OS 10.14.4 ever since it came out. I try to keep my system up to date.

But then the drivers would have to look up away from the cell phone screen in their lap! How awful is that! I do agree, I think the general level of driver quality has declined - and I think phones are a part of that. I see folks flying through …

I have an image of a short eared owl shot at sunset with what looks like a mountain in the background and since it is a little blurry it looks fine. But what I know, is that there are no mountains near my home, except for the "trash mountain" which …

Like I said I thought it was funny the first and second time, but then when I noticed that it was happening more than just once in a while, and I DO NOT experience it with other web pages as I mentioned, I decided to mention it. I am using plain …

I have an interesting experience when typing text into the text box for a post in a thread here on Cake - occaisionally I get mirror image text running right to left across the screen, like in my title above. I have no idea why this occurs, nor how …

Agreed, I don't want to interfere in the flow of Denise's millway - I'll open a new thread - I don't know how to cause the issue, but I have seen it a half dozen times at least

That image was my favorite too, although I also like the one that follows it as well. One of the differences between the two images is that the water in the first image with the bridge reflection is much much smoother, contributing the reflection …

Yeah, I hate to be a sourpuss or a pessamist, but I think a broasdside by a lorry would lead to pretty bad things to the occupant of the vehicle. Maybe when they're all autonomous vehicles it will work out fine! On a bike lane it would rule, which …
