DAVE WROTE:  Hi Jim, I  know I haven’t sent you any pictures in  a while. It  has been pretty dead here in upstate NY. The decline in the bird population is ongoing  at an exponential rate. The fall migration is almost non existent. I have been doing this for 65 plus years. I have birding journals going back 50 plus years. Here are few shots a Cedar Waxwing, a fall Bay-breasted Warbler. Two young buck deer behind our house. Strangest of all a young moose about 10 miles north of Rome, NY. We don’t normally have moose in our area. Dave

My wife says in my old age I should go find a safe hobby: – “Not like those hobbies you had when you were young – boats, wind-surfers, motorcycles, airplanes, horses”   So, I am going back to learn more about photography with Remote Controlled  Airplanes, Drones, and Adobe Artificial Photography:

A drone can be sort of strange looking thing  – like this old bug of mine!

Watch out – they are everywhere  spying on you!

They have many good applications though – like finding your lost  ring or a missing F35 fighter jet.

Those pesty drones are every where, just like mosquito’s – I showed this photo to a friend and he immediately started swatting his own face.

I these days of Artificial Intelligence – It hard to tell what is real and what is only fake – Drones can find cities filled with tiny people out in the lake behind my house.  Well, only  if you believe in gremlins and elves. – It is almost Halloween, you know.

Be careful walking on Harmony Lane at night. This drone is getting scary AI (Artificial  Instructions) from a resident on that street.

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE -Learn to enjoy the new world of AI (Artificial images) – Just laugh at them.
