Controversial take,but once a child no longer believes in Santa there is no need to buy gifts for anyone, the magic is over. All you are doing is indoctrinating them to spend money at the end of the year just to make the merchants richer. Give time and experiences, not cheap things wrapped in paper

Well the home plate ump is showing he is a dodgers fan. It was going to be a tough series for the Jays, but with the umps blatantly making bad calls it's going to be extra tough

Ace Frehley was a major influence for many guitarists, including myself. If it wasn't for Ace I may never have picked up a guitar in the first place. As a young lad of only 9 seeing Ace playing on the Midnight Special cemented it for me. Rest in peace Ace, you will be missed.

Went out to Jackfish Lake this evening. It was lovely getting out, the heat had lessened and the bugs were being cooperative. The boaters on the other hand not so much.

I could learn to like the lake life, if only I could afford it.

Went out to test out the Canon EF 16mm f2.8 on my R5 and have some observations. It's built cheap, but the optical quality is pretty good considering it's $399 (CAN). Distortion and vignetting are massive when uncorrected. Overall 3/5. #canon #canonr5 #blackandwhite #sunflower #yeg #edmonton #flower

Went for a wander around Elk Island with @drewmayphoto.bsky.social to try out some rental lenses to see what to buy.

The #Canon RF 100-500mm is an interesting lens. I don't know if I would buy it but I will certainly rent it again.

There is something about churches in the early morning that just draws me to them. I don't know what exactly, but there is something.

I know I can't play anymore because of injuries, but my brain keeps pulling me towards a guitar store.

Must be a sickness of some sort.

But damn it's pretty

Wow does Bluesky ever compress the heck out of images.

I guess no one will steal them, but holy crap that turned to mush.

It was cold and very windy in #yeg last night. Was I smart for being outside, probably not. But I got a picture and that kinda makes up for it.
