The Weekly M43 thread - a very good thing, which deserves continuity…
‘Migrated’ from DPR… and I’m hoping someone can take the reins on a weekly basis…
Greetings to everyone on the ‘Pale Blue Dot’ !
Let’s put up images, no restrictions on camera/format/topic - but something which is intriguing, interesting and more than a snapshot, is a good thing.
I won’t add all the verbage regarding posting and ettiquete, which can come later… we all know what applies.
For future, I’m not a good candidate for the weekly role - I disappear often for many days at a time, especially as we get out of winter…
But for Now, let’s see what you see.
I have contacted Wormsmeat… hoping he pops in over here…
I tend to disappear for days at a time, especially when it’s more comfy to go backpacking… And I’m trying to continue my yearly extended trip back to my family home in Germany (and Euro excursions).
So, It would be good to have this taken over by someone/few who might also put up this weekly thread/idea… Hoping this continues and includes ALL images from ALL cameras/formats…It’s been the the single biggest draw, keeping me coming to DPR…
EDIT: And the image needn’t be from this week/current. Can be from any prior day. A small statment or story is always appreciated - at least something ID’ing the location…
Thx
Yuri
Edit: It worked! I figured it out without a tutorial, but some guidance about how to post would have been helpful. It may be there somewhere, but I couldn’t find it.

Followed by my first attempt at cloning/healing in Faststone to remove an impressive snot trail from her upper lip. It’s far from perfect so I need to learn how to do it better… but it’s a lot better than the original!
Keeping our ‘tour’ vessel going, in all 4 dimensions; some pics from a weekly small hike group. A hike of awareness; of our surroundings and ourselves. A hike with a midpoint where we briefly discuss some idea and then meditate for 10 min. Returning, rested and more aware.
After literally months of frequent torrential rains, that common day of bright sunshine has become special again. And our landscape is greener than we’ve seen in many years.
Live Oaks, the survivors of a difficult landscape, coming thru fire and extreme drought.
Hi ALL !
Please refrain from posting any new images to this thread. Another, newer thread has been started.
OK to comment on images in here already!
… See you all, next weeks…
