macro

 Focus stacking is great if you wanna shoot macro. Those detailed photographs are so awesome. I do like the extreme close up.

Book

 Book publisher tells an author to please stop talking about on going racism. That could lessen readership it seems.  What we have is a society that is full of censors. Basically, we are not allowed to say what we think any more.

Granger Smith

 Granger Smith is leaving behind his music career. The ministry is what he wants to pursue. Well, that came to me as a surprise. Basically, he does value God more than material things or money. However, at the end of the day, money does not fill us. God is who we must serve.

duck

 Yesterday, I saw a dead duck near my house and it filled my heart with sorrow. OK, so I had ducks many years ago. Fact is, I built a pond for them to swim in. They are a lot of fun to see. My favorite is seeing a mama duck with little ducklings swimming in a river.

cheapest state

 Question for you. What is the cheapest state? They say Mississippi is the least expensive to live in. However, I do not agree. Probably, it would be West Virginia my fine ones. Ah yes, there are lots of houses available for less than one hundred thousand dollars and that is nice. Taxes are super low and it has weather that is nice. Trouble is that jobs are few now. Coal is not as popular as it once was.

path

 I really do wonder about the path we are on. Certainly, this is a long and winding journey. Just maybe, we can ponder what the final destination is.

FED

 FED jacks interest rates up. This is despite our severe economic crisis. Hey, they do need to finally wake up. After all, things might get even worse. Basically, we can see a massive recession is near. Just look at the signs. Like they are all around us.

Bard

 Google makes Bard. its CHAT GPT competitor available for us. Hey, most of us can use AI services now. Well, the future really is wow. Let us hope that roving robots do not take over.

Adobe

 Adobe makes AI generated images available for us. I use to complain years ago about the poor quality of our CGI or computer generated images. However, they have really gotten a lot better in the last six years. Still, there is some room... to improve.

last year

 I can still remember last year. Almost everyone we saw... like they had a cloth mask on. Oh wow, this was true in BANKS even. Funny just how quickly things can change on us.

amazon

 Things do not look good in amazon. OK, so they are firing more workers as the business continues to shrink some more. Fellow colleagues, we are in a serious economic crisis. People are now holding back on buying items that are not absolutely necessary. OK, so we really do not blame them any.

Canada

 Migrants are moving to Canada in record numbers now. Don't really know what to say even. Hey, I have lived in Canada and it was just a bit too chilly for me. Oh yes, the climate we mean. The people are so nice.

Twitter

 Twitter will remove its legacy verified program. Oh yes, we did say - remove. Well, that does indeed amaze us. Fellow colleagues, this news is worrisome. Hey, it might simply just be me. I am really not so sure.

Hollywood

 Hollywood is AI anxious now. They wanna limit its voice. Fellow colleagues, we do not see things in a similar manner. After all, we do like technology and remember that CGI means computer generated images. Where would Hollywood be without CGI? That is probably one of the most important aspects in movies.
