Don, You are Hill a ree ous! You sure know how to spread it around. And I just returned from the old tavern, a little worse for wear after those 40 wishes and membership to the over the hill gang!

That was very kind, and I'm sure your sister envies the toned-down treatment. : )

Andrea Elizabeth · Aug 2, 2006

And I just saw Matrona's Many Years! Okay, now my birthday is officially over ..... the hill. : (

DonVA · Aug 2, 2006

The view from this side of the hill is SO much better. You'll see!

EricTheRed · Aug 2, 2006

I dont know. This side is kinda nice.

Andrea Elizabeth · Aug 3, 2006

Hey Eric,

Is your avatar from the Cathedral?

I'll check back later.

And I'm with Don, I'm ready for downhill! The energy fades as heaven's light beckons...

EricTheRed · Aug 3, 2006

Yes it is from the cathedral.

Matrona · Aug 3, 2006

Whee... pulling all nighter to write papers... fun

EricTheRed · Aug 3, 2006

Well im heading off to sleep. I got band tomarrow.

Good morning to those who need a "run away run away" smiley, to those who had nightmares last night, to those who quote creepy charismatics, to those who are driven nuts by their siblings, to tho who melt, to those who have internet access problems, to those who are succesful with guys and chat up handsome cops in elevators, to those who have huge medication expenses, to those who have the Steelers as a secondary religion, to those who are into nikon digital cameras, to those who confuse Rooh AfzaSummer drink of the East with ketchup, to those who used to much bleach to wash their sheets, to tho who rep each other and to tho who schmep each other, to those who prefer this side of the hill, to those who have written papers all night, to those who have a cathedral in their avatar, and to other friends.

Good morning Emmanuel - you are really getting into the swing of the greetings thing aren't you ?

You beat me to the Taverna this morning .

Morning all - now to finish my coffee - I hope

I also have a telephoto, and wide angle lenses for my Nikon. There are times that I will "borrow" or "steal" my hubbie's tripod for his SLR. He can take the regular photos, and I'll take the digitals. My graphics degree/knowledge helps with printing them out.... and there are some really nice opportunities to do macros. The 8700 isn't as good for macros as the 880 was. My 880 is a goner for closeups, although it still works for landscape shots. I was really happy to be able to put filters on my Nikon. So much to learn, and so little time.

Being an artist I need to have slides of my work for entering it into competitions, applying for grants, etc. To get a digital file made into a slide costs $10 per picture, which is a bit too pricey for me. Therefore I have 2 Nikon 6006 SLRs (one for slides and one that I take pictures with). I love the 6006!

Good morning everyone!

Nice character Emmanuel.

It is, but all you can see is HILL to climb.

DonVA · Aug 3, 2006

Emmanuel: I thought about how your greeting might look after yesterday's posts. We WERE kind of all over the place, but you kept up and as usual did a brilliant job of including pretty much everyone! Is it as much fun for you to create as it obviously is for us to read?

And is that a new look you're sporting? Or are you just incognito?

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Emmanuel-A again.

And I schtill can't schmep you!

I bought a camera that a friend of mine highly recommended. It is a Nikon, but it's the CoolPix 2500... OK for little snapshots, but anything more complicated than that and it requires too much work on photoshop!

It's hard sometimes, like this morning, but it improves my summarizing skills.

Don't I look cooler ?

Matrona · Aug 3, 2006

Thanks Emmanuel

I'm up to 260 words... out of 1200... paper's due at 1 PM (2 hours from now)...

...but at least I haven't run out of material to cover. Now THAT would be bad.

Cool! Last week the Vladimir the Iconographer talked about that icon a bit. I hadn't realized what a mandorla(?) was. It's where what's depicted is only seen by faith, and that is the oval or round "glow".

I didn't quite get why he didn't want to use snow in St. Seraphim's conversation with Motovilov, though I realize that icons are not supposed to be pictographically accurate but more symbolic.
