Welcome to the clan buddy!

Grats! Welcome to the funny farm!

Yes, my particular style is.....dying....a LOT

I think you need to lay off the peyote @AyaqGuyaq, I know a Heron when I see one. ? Direct from your own home states Alaska Department of fish and wildlife, I give you....Blue Heron's http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=wildlifenews.view_article&articles_id=32

Exactly.....

I actually was totally unprepared for that shot. We were at Potter's Marsh just outside Anchorage. There were your typical waterfowl such as Heron's, gull's and Canadian Geese. I heard this chaotic sound coming through the tree's behind me and I saw this gull dive bombing the eagle. I grabbed my camera and just held the shutter down (I believe that was my 7D Mark II with 100-400 lens). The exposure wasn't really spot on, but I was lucky enough to grab a few in focus shots just at the right time. The Eagle was chasing the Gull's babies. The Gull was not having any of it and chased the Eagle away. It was pretty epic to watch. I also snapped an American Kestral chasing a Bald Eagle there pretty much the same way, although they did not turn out as good. We didn't do a cruise, we flew into Anchorage and planned our two week trip out ourselves. Alaska is an amazing place. Really a trip of a lifetime.

Four years ago today, my bride (of 33 years) and I embarked on an epic journey to Alaska. We have been on many great vacations, yet, they ALL pale in comparison to the magnificent postcard settings of Alaska. We cannot wait to go back and explore more of this beautiful state. And now that @AyaqGuyaq no longer lives there, it's safe to go back! ? Here is a gallery of photos we took on our journey, for those interested in seeing them: https://digitaledgephotography.zenfolio.com/alaska-2015 If you haven't been, GO.....before you cant get out and truly enjoy it.

Things were so quiet while you were away @wildthing ? Glad you're back on your game!

Welcome @caciusclay7, enjoy playing with you! Welcome!

@AyaqGuyaq you should know, you wrote the book on stalking....where have YOU been the past few years. ? Come on into game sometime, I got something fer ya! Oh and welcome Munky!

Outstanding @lilmordjr!

Thank you for these suggestions. Yes it is Windows 10. I will absolutely look into these. Thanks much!

Thanks, I tried this. I wasn't able to maximize the window once I got it into windowed mode. It was too small to play on so I went back to full screen mode and will just continue to complain. LOL I am a linux admin, not a windoze guru as you can see. :)

I HIGHLY recommend Fiverr https://www.fiverr.com/ I paid two or three artists a minimal amount to come up with a concept for me. I asked one for a slight modification and when all is said and done I think I paid less than $50

HAHA Yup not freaking out It happens when I am not even on the keyboard

Does anyone else have trouble with their game minimizing during play? It's so frustrating when it just blows down to the task bar........and it's usually just about the time that Sharpe is going to do a double gainer with a 2 1/2 twist and slice my throat. :) Any ideas on how to make this STOP would be great.

I second that motion Vakten! LOL

Roger, Ranger......welcome!

Rusty is an AKC registered Parsons Jack Russell....but we think some Rat Terrier had a little fun on the side He is an awesome dog. Our second Jack Russell. The first one was loving but a bitch to everyone and everything else. Rusty can't get enough of people or other dogs....he's a lover, not a hater!

Very nice looking truck @_GATOR_ Although the 3.5L V6 Ecoboost twin turbo in my 2018 Ford Explorer Sport has more horsepower than your 5.7 Hemi V8 ?

Welcome Joe!
