Van Gogh

Peter and Patti complained about images over-running my text, therefore, I resized all the photos on this page. It is a browser, resolution, monitor size issue; I hope this helps. If you click on the links under Recent Entries, that problem disappears entirely and you'll also see comments listed in order.

Mark Queijo and others want more history of the BMW and I'm hoping a Ruthenburg will send me a paragraph or two that I can include in my short (upcoming) synopsis.

Brian posted on his site, this stunning image of the recent Van Gogh Moon and I had to reproduce it here. To me, it demonstrates his technical skill (as a younger brother it pains me to say that), the limits (as in upper) of the Nikon 5700 and the gift of a mostly clear sky.

I added this unsubscribe link.

Okay, I'll hold my experience and education up to ridicule and go on record asking, "What's a 'Van Gogh moon'?" Yellow, as in his ___ ___ painting? Highly textured, like his work? Self-absorbed, like the artist?

Looks totally different on my Mac Studio display, which shows too much mottled background. On my work PC, the sky is pretty crisp black.

Thank you for the thoughtful addition of the unsubscribe feature, but I promised "'til death do us part." Anyway, how could I ever legally relinquish such a brother-in-law?

And on my monitor those are wispy clouds. For a description of Van Gogh's Moon: http://www.planetary.org/html/news/articlearchive/headlines/2003/vangogh_moon.html
