Politics? Well I grew up in Western PA ... so very similar to the "laser beams from space" thing so I will be right at home. Biggest win besides taxes is the weather and nicer people. Philly is fine, but has that edge of America's North East.

Porsche content: Look out for my third radiator addition. I was getting super-high-for-me oil temps down there in August... kinda freaked me out. So.... a project !!! I was hesitant to do it here in Philly as I drive my car in the dead of winter and didn't want to slow warm up times.

Birds! Ha! Did you know New Jersey has the 2nd most species of birds in the USA? As I got into it, I am constantly amazed at what I find out there. I hope GA has even half of what NJ has. Below from just the last few weeks.

Thanx!! How did you know I used at R5? Could you see the metadata?

I have no desire for these new RF lenses... the max aperture is f/11. That is just awful.... I don't understand Canon's strategy... yes they are very inexpensive but you would have to shoot very high ISOs, and frankly, the R5 is not professional quality above ISO 1000. For birding, I use an EF 600 IS f/4.0 Gen II, truly a world-class lens. Canon will be releasing the RF equivalent to my EF lens in July, but I see no real benefit trading one for another. I have to have that wide aperture to get the shutter speed and low noise.... as would anyone who is serious about image quality.
