Re: GoPro HERO 9 Black leaked packaging hints a significant upgrade

That really doesn't sound like an upgrade worth making. The Hero8 already boasts of gimbal like hypersmooth stabilization. Etc.

I would say if you have 10 days and are a hiker and/or a Lord of the Rings fan, drive from Auckland to Matamata and visit Hobbiton; the next day drive to the Tongariro National Park and do the day hike at Tongariro Alpine Crossing and climb Mt. Doom... that's just two days saving 8 for the south island!

Re: Less Labels, More Sizes: Introducing More Styles for More Women

amyproctor — Wed, 07 Mar 2018 16:19:01 -0000

Excellent! Plus size women, or even the little bigger than the normal outdoorsy-woman, should be encouraged to get outdoors and be active. I'm a little overweight and because of my age I don't care what people think anymore, but so many women feel awkward in active clothing. We shouldn't! The outdoors belongs to all of us. Thanks for this post!

This makes me never want to visit China again.

Re: New Liturgical Movement: Picture of the Year 2017

Thank you! The Mass was more beautiful than any photograph could show however because of the peripheral details outside of frame. And Fr. Kiefer's sermon. And the amazing choir. It's sensory overload in the best way possible!

Thank you! The picture of the Rorate Mass is mine. I'm blessed enough to be a worshipper at the Shrine of St. Alphonsus. The pictures will be appearing in Regina Magazine's January edition. Thank you for the mention!

Because some people live in flatlands with no hills. I'm going to NZ and have to go to the gym to train because there's nothing here in Central Texas to challenge me unless I drive 2 hours, 4 round trip, to Enchanted Rock. Don't see myself doing that every day.

I'm so sick and tired of Peak Design being political. Oh, it's not political, of course not... it's just that "Obama came in and big-leagued 'em" and "Obama got it right. Peak Design is outing itself every friggin time I turn around. I'm a professional news and landscape photgrapher and I use quite a few Peak Design products, but not anymore. How about this, Peak Design. I'm boycotting YOU.

I'm the photographer for the paper and wrote the copyblock for this as well. And this is my parish on Fort Hood, the Fort Hood Traditional Latin Mass Community. One small typo the paper made in the first paragraph is "Unsanin". Should be "Unsan in....

The Latin Mass has been underway on Fort Hood for a year now after a 45 year pause......

What time of day did you shoot this? Trying to figure out if this was morning or afternoon....

Trey, forgive me if you've already answered this. Just tell me to scroll through the answers if so....

I save my pics on external hard drives but I have a recurring fear of something happening to them. I'm thinking a cloud is the way to go to back up my pics. What do you use to back up your images?

Re: IT’S OFFICIAL: I am NEVER voting for Donald Trump

amyproctor — Sun, 24 Jul 2016 12:04:36 -0000

Being told we're supporting Hillary is like some narcissistic, entitled, manipulating wife abuser saying, "If you call the cops, it'll be YOUR fault the kids will be from a broken home and they won't have their dad!"

Screw that. At least I won't be physically abused and my kids will see the consequences of bad behavior and the meaning of self-respect. This is completely Trump's fault, and those who keep enabling this narcissist with borderline personality disorder.

I honestly think he believes what he says. I don't think he's lying. He is so self-important that he believes whatever thought pops into his head is right and he doesn't have the self-discipline to evaluate himself.

Of course all the crap he says about Truz is false, and after the post-Convention tirade in Ohio with the bizarre rantings against Cruz, I'm out. No way in hell I'm voting for Trump. For the first time in my life I will be sitting out an election. And it's HIS fault, not mine.

You used a Nikon to shoot this,Trey? Is this before or after you ditched Nikon and went Sony?

Trey, what an amazing product you've developed. What a genius. And I can't believe how affordable it is. Please make it compatible with the PC, too. I may by a Mac in the coming months but, then again, I may not. Lots of people would benefit from this on a PC.

Again, what great software and what a price. It's amazing. I'm really impressed. :)

Re: White Sands at Sunset

What a fantastic news spot, Trey. Very fun! And good advice.

I lived in El Paso for a year until a few months ago. The hubby is active duty Army. My solace was driving an hour and 1/2 to White Sands. I LOVE it there. Sadly, we're in Fort Hood, TX, now... Killeen. Ugh.

If you get back to El Paso, make sure to hike in the Franklin Mountains. Or drive 45 minutes west into Las Cruces, NM to Dripping Springs. It's a great part of the country.

The writer of this article is inappropriately joking about something very serious. Maybe if it were his brother, father or son who'd been attacked and eaten by a croc he wouldn't be quite so flip. I find this reporting disturbing.

So.... I'm guessing... it was hard to find. No maps or anything showing where this was? Geesh!
