A Formula for a Nice Life
- Pick a career, get the training and excel. Wash, rinse, repeat 40 years.
- Find your soulmate. Build a family. Go through hell. Have fun.
- Accumulate pensions, Social Security, IRA’s, real estate and piles of cash. Be comfy and corrupt the grand kids.
A Small Blue Marble 
Very much accurate, Syd! Though many of us fail at the first step itself 😂😅

I meant it as a joke of sorts, “See, it’s all so simple…” when it certainly isn’t. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

I agree, if only it were that simple.

Thank you. That photo is one of the reasons I still have a film camera.

I don’t know much about photography but I can see how beautiful it is both the subject and the technique.Why did people jump into digital phhotographs so quickly? It’s useful in some ways but is it as good?

Digital is faster, cheaper, and convenient. It’s instantaneous. The digital helps you with your exposures. When we sing the praises of analog film, we tend to forget about the rolls that we messed up. I still enjoy film as an imaging media. There’s a richness about it that I sort of “feel,” but I only use it when I want to immerse myself in it, not “everyday.”

Exactly. I can shoot a photo in Tokyo and get it to New York in minutes more or less for free. And, the better digital cameras are pretty wonderful image making machines.

while before I realised it had a camera.It’s nice sometimes with family to share photos.Though it might receive comments like:How many pairs of glasses have you got?
Your hair looked better before you dyed it purple.Oh, no.It doesn’t look like you at all.:)
