Not a fan but it's near the office

Son's corner office overlooks the new Mercedes Stadium in Atlanta. Tried to talk him into buying me a seat, but the tight wad wouldn't do it LOL

For any Whovians, MLW has been watching ER, something I haven't been able to do, until I heard a familiar voice and looked to see familiar very wavy blonde hair . . . Alex Kingston aka River Song ("Hell in high heels").

I was a huge ER fan and I knew her there first.

I dread Monday night home games . . . traffic is bad enough without this place being open.

On Saturday we had our yearly family reunion and I took the yearly group shot:

Wow, that's a large group to shoot!!! Nice job

Originally I did a single shot but found the resolution is low. So I started to create panoramic images from three or more shots to make everyone recognizable. The family meets every year since 1972 and there must be an archive somewhere with all these group shots. Someone in the family paints the outlines, numbers the figures and then adds names to all participants and the geanological number showing the relativeness to our founding father Cornelius Balduin. In 50 years our ancestors can go back, look at the picture and know who was there in 2017....

Not the easiest of things to do with a large group, as invariably someone in the bunch will move at the wrong time, right at the point where you're trying to stich the image.

Nö. The programs stitch seamlessly and I have them folks well under control. They are allowed to breathe and laugh basically. That is it. I position every one of them, not perfect here, then I do my clownesque performance with two cameras and two lenses on a staircase or ladder...

One of Princess's friends got a new puppy. He came to visit yesterday. He was ADORABLE. Our dog was not amused.

@SquarePeg I think we need a "Heart" rating for the to cute photos!

I agree!!!! He is cuteness overload. His name is Zeus. Having him visit is part of my daughter's master plan to convince me to get another dog.

My dog loves other dogs. Funny how they are all different. However, my dog was kind of attacked by another dog last week as he was being friendly. Webster turned all Hyde on him though and put him in his place in a hot second. I didn't realize other than one other time he could be aggressive because he is a sweet dog. I didn't have him on a leash, he was riding in my golf cart.

Xing is not usually a fan of other dogs. He's super sweet with all people especially kids but when I took him to the dog park he looked around then looked at me like "get me outta here"! We joke that it's because he doesn't know he's a dog lol.

The Cook would have loved the pup. It is funny that we will often dog sit while the dog's humans leave town. Invariably, the humans say that their dog is better behaved after its stay than before being dropped off. Gary thinks it's all about Cookie teaching them proper manners.
