    Let me know what you think.

      I took a shot at a couple of days ago.

      Photos can be of anything, anywhere. A photo you post can have a connection to the previous one, or not. You can add comments, or not. *** Only one rule: You must be the photographer. No stealing from the web. *** Thank you! :D

        Hi Sekishi, Tai Shi here,

        When you post resizing instructions, please keep me in mind. By the way, I have found an excellent way to partially control much of my pain only dimly remembered from 10 years ago, that being-- I hold my tongue motionless in the center of my mouth. I relax every muscle (the ones I notice), and completely loosen my jaw. The Idea is to relax every muscle I can "not" think of, and I feel better in my neck all over. I suspect this in a form of mindfulness and not paying attention. I would still like direction for resizing because I find the available software baffles me. I have beautiful photos on my phone, so there might be a way to use Tap A Talk, an app I sometimes used to enter Treeleaf Zendo. Thank you.

          I’m sorry I missed this. What do you think - should I delete instructions in the FAQ, or is having two sets of instructions ok?

            Hi Taishi - if you have Tapatalk, that is probably the easiest way to post. It has a feature that will resize the photos for you.

            I will work on instructions for posting from Tapatalk in the next day or so.

              I think two sets are good. Having it in the faq makes it a convenient place to direct folks down the road if /when it comes up again.

              Plus your instructions are better.

                      For me photography is a meditation-- I have a great book-- The Tao of Photography. Originally published for and with film, the book is mostly large color prints, one gains the expansiveness of photography and the Yin/ Yang of this universe. Where is it we travel as human kind? Photos show the beauty of landscape, nature, and scenic photography. The grail of vision attainable by the person with the camera-- consider even the pin hole camera-- a tool for film, and 35 mm film is obtainable at discount stores. The glory of Kodachrome is gone but today we have Fuji Film and hundreds of thousands of ways to use the old reliable relics of the past. I own a Canon Rebel film camera with two zoom lenses and electronic flash. Life can be sweet again with a role of 35 mm film and a camera.

                            I'm still away, just happened to see this. Interested to know more about this book. Looks good.

                            I'm reading "Bringing the Sacred to Life" - small book, travels well. [emoji4]

                              View of the other end of the hut, which is an 8X10' hut (former playhouse). The laptop has a dead keyboard but the camera and trackpad are fine, so Hangouts happily watches the room from there.

                                PORT RIVER SHIPWRECKS

                                If this pic works (and if people are interested), I'll upload some photos of my kayaking expedition along the Port River, about an hour from my house. Not only does it contain numerous wrecks but is also a dolphin sanctuary. They are not scared of small boats and will swim directly under you. They are such beautiful creatures.
                                This is the remains of the Santiago. The Santiago was a 455-ton barque launched in 1856. It was built by Henry Balfour of Methil, Fife for the Liverpool shipping company Balfour Williamson. It sailed mainly between Liverpool and Chile, but also to Australia. Its remnant hull which lies in a ship's graveyard in South Australia is considered to be 'the oldest intact iron hull sailing vessel in the world.
