Looks like it was a challenging mux of values, Lorell. But you nailed it.
Very nice, Don. I'm convinced that you can produce professional photos with any camera of any quality.
Hi Natalie. I hope all is well with you.
It has been a frustrating week for me.
1) I'm still feeling slightly off. Sure hope this is something that will pass and not my new normal.
2) Trying to get refunds for 2 items I ordered from a major etailer for failed delivery and an unacceptably long wait for delivery, both from small overseas vendors. I finally got them to start processing refunds.
3) Then I got an email from my bank that an attempted purchase from the same etailer and using the same debit card I used to order the items referred to above had been declined because whoever tried to place the order entered the wrong expiration date of my card. In other words someone got access to most of the info of my debit card. I'm suspecting a data breach at my bank or at the etailer. I had to put a hold on the debit card, walk down to the nearest branch and withdraw enough cash to cover me until the new card arrives.
Trying to look on the positive side, I ended up walking for a near record number of steps and miles (about 5.25) yesterday. That's a good thing. On the other hand, I'm paying for those extra miles with aches and pains in my feet, legs, knees, back, and neck.
Back to the positive side; on my long walk to the bank I got a decent shot of part of an unusual flowering plant. The plant is maybe 8 feet tall, and the flowers are found at the end of a very long curving arm that arcs gracefully from the main plant. Whatever the plant is, it blossoms infrequently, so I'm fortunate to have gotten a photo of it in bloom...

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
