Where is everyone?

Only sixteen posts in the past week, by my count.

Only four of us have posted photos, and they’ve gotten very few comments.

How about some pix and commentary, friends?

Less active photographically nowadays, and my son and his wife are here on holiday from Hong Kong, and my eldest grandchild from my side graduated from high school this week!  So a busy period.

Not much photography lately...the weather sucks here in Nova Scotia.

I do have a new (to me) acquisition, though: a Sigma 100-300mm f4
zoom. I bought one about five years ago for my Nikon and was really
impressed. I also got a Sigma 70-200/2.8 for Pentax at the same time
but on the K1 II it's not very sharp.  Then I saw this 100-300 at KEH
the other day and grabbed it. It arrived yesterday. It seems really
sweet.

I posted a few things, but there were no comments.
I commented on a few posts that were made by others.
It has, however, been unusually quiet.

Wednesday, after packing food for the Food Bank distribution at Rotary, I
took my dog for a long walk in the chilly weather.  On my way home, a car
drove past displaying blinking red and blue lights.  I said to myself, "
hope that isn't a volunteer fireman speeding to my house."  To my relief,
he turned away from our house at the corner.  Before I got home, however,
my wife notified me that the fireman had been on the way to our rental
house.  One of the tenants; children had placed a plastic toy on the top of
the electric range, causing a smokey fire.  The range and the hood were
total losses, and the wall and an adjacent countertop were damaged.  So, I
have spent much o9f the past few days dealing with insurance adjusters,
contractors, and appliance stores.

Great fun.
