Pics?

Like guns, the best camera is the one you have on you at the time. I've used an RX100 (II), as an adjunct to a phone, primarily for (sensor) low light / depth of field / (lens) zoom capabilities, while still being pocketable, with NFC/WiFi to transfer photos to on the go. Sometimes convergence is overrated. Another alternative (especially for the video crowd) would be to get a gimbal. Although looking at other people with them, it only feels one step removed from a selfie stick. Of course, if you are serious about "Point and Shoot, Camera" https://petapixel.com/2016/10/07/watch-army-photographer-switch-camera-rifle-combat/

^And it's not even Tuesday!

Why does this remind me of the Engineer 's bike joke? Two engineering students, Bob and Ed, are riding their bikes. Bob says to Ed, "That's a nice bike; is it new?" Ed replies, "Well, that's an interesting story. I was walking on campus the other day, and a beautiful woman rides up to me, gets off her bike and puts it on down, takes off all of her clothes and throws them down, and says 'Take what you want.'" Bob says to Ed, "Good choice; the clothes wouldn't have fit you anyway."

Oops wrong thread ...

Went to the (Marin) county Fair Met up with some Brits Drank overpriced usual Listened to UB40 Watched the fireworks Cool

UB40, along with a few other people

Ice Cream with Bass from UB40

Marin County Fair garlic fries, Kale and quinoa salad (well this is Marin) with Carne Adodova, Homestyle chicken enchilada

The filling is decidedly un-empanada like. Lamb and potatoes, and so much the better for it. cf https://www.thespruce.com/empanadas-and-cornish-pasties-3980188

Pasty and Mango Chutney on the deck
