I was surprised recently to find that the average pooch can recognise over 150 human words. It has the vocabulary of a toddler. Police and search and rescue dogs get up to 250 words and up. A record breaking border terrier got up to over 1000 recognized words. Cats on the other hand rely on their chimp to recognise what their vocabulary of meows, chirps and grunts mean. Basically feed me, cuddle me, play with me. Then once those options are exhausted, sleep for 18 hours a day.

Congrats on the SL2. Man, the S5 Pro as the high point of the Fuji-Nikon collaboration and Super CCD is something. Are you processing in LR? Sadly, the 12MP combined high/low (aka normal) pixel raw output, isn't handled in most apps, including C1, so it's a JPG-only camera for me, but love it.

Before we miss another Peter's birthday, I'll do the honors. May your day be gloriously black. Or purple. Or perhaps both.

Could it have been the corgi?

I've done a lot with photography over the last few months, from re-editing a bunch of shots I took of a car show in a Walmart parking lot (ya rly) in the summer of '07, to mucking about with my 300mm Nikkor to completely missing the aurora borealis we had here. I also got divebombed by a flock of honking Canada geese.

Y'all know the phrase "Not the flex you think it is?" None of these are Photoshopped.

Who can identify the cans in Quincy's home studio, circa 1974? Not I, by the way... RIP to the legend with a legendary name, Quincy Delight Jones, Jr.
