Modern cars actually lack personality. There, I said it. Something to be said about history, son.

Sounds a lot like Foghorn Leghorn.

MOST EXCELLENT shallow depth of field photography work.

were you using just a low F-stop to manage that, or using in-camera "toy mode" shooting?

[Norm K]

Some pretty good car shots there. Too bad the broad kept getting in the way.

Excellent photos, Doug. And Liz you look fantastic! Keep doing what you're doing and thanks for sharing!

I do what my husband asks of me, like any good wife should. He requested that I be in all of those shots. Far be it for me to dishonor my husband's wishes.

AI from Google, completely after the fact. Makes us hacks look good 😊

[Rusty Heap]

please expand on "AI from google" how do you process those?

I lived in Naples for about a year or so right around '89-'90 at an apartment complex in Royal Harbor. Really enjoyed it there before moving to Fort Myers, Lehigh Acres, and then back over to where I am now on the East Coast.

My cat (Kinger) and I on the dock behind my apartment:

They stay in your heart, for sure. He was such a good boy. Was very faithful like a dog. Even went on walks with me!

Got him as a tiny little abandoned kitten on a rainy morning at my irrigation supplier's place in Holly Hill about a year or two before re-locating to Naples.

He ended up traveling with me to 4 different places over the next 5 years. He even got lost in Naples but I got him back after placing an ad in the paper. Ended up across town - probably after hopping in the back of someone's truck.

This won't be a popular post, but I grew up with 4 indoor cats, and a mom who rescued any animal in a parking lot (80's). Men seem to "hate" cats. I never understood that.

***** - Female dog
Dog - Ugly woman
Cat Fight - Yes, please
Cat Woman - Purrrr
P*ssy - Depends, but usually ok

Everything dog related, and talking about a woman isn't great. Turn it around to kitty-cats....ME-YOWWWWW

Doug, she is just adorable.
