    Welcome Cathy,

    Glad to have you join us. Looking forward to that empty nest feeling myself, not necessarily the wife though. Tell us about you and your husband's photography experiences, cameras used, and looking forward to seeing some of your work.

    Hi Shadowman,

    How on earth did you read all that "between the lines"?

    Do you read palms too?

    Cheers,

    Hi Cathy,

    Welcome to the CiC forums from me too, great to have you join us.

    I hope you'll find us a (knowledge) sharing community, so a good place to learn where we draw upon each other's experiences and refer to Sean's excellent tutorials. Sean (McQ) built the site 'from the ground up' for the tutorials and his gallery, the forums came a little later.

    Shadowman has asked all the usual questions, so I'll stop waffling and give you a chance to get a word in.

    Best regards,

    Dave,

    "Only the Shadow knows!"

    Bad television quote. No, I read her profile.

    You'd think, being a moderator and all, I'd have thought of that

    Thanks (I'll sit in the corner with the pointy hat on, for half an hour now),

    Cathy

    Your interests match mine perfectly (running, cycling, reading). Unfortunately you forgot PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Welcome!

    The ultimate sport: photographing while running, cycling, and reading.

    You could easily fall "head over tails" about that one!

    Why not? Here's my local mountain-bike technical trail a few miles away. Not my video, and I don't go down this fast. No sound on video. I bet they were reading their camera manual on the way down.

    And I thought that recording a car trip down through Glenfarg was cutting-edge stuff (don't know who did it, or why. But there seems to be a lot of them, about).

    Watch out for it passing under this at 1m 55sec.

    Love the Carlos Santana soundtrack. One of my favs.

    Talk about hi-jacking a thread.

    I was able to hear the sound. Unbelievable trail, I kept thinking he's not watching the road.

    Beautiful scenery in the video and very nice photograph.

    So, Cathy, what camera do you have? What do you like to photograph?

    Ah yes, I've been there before!

    Here's the scenario:
    Late at night, find something useful on a forum, join up but then go to bed without bookmarking the url, or writing down your username or password, then remember the forum a week later when you've no idea where it was

    At least here's there's a chance Cathy may see this in an e-mail

    Cheers,

    IF she has subscribed to the thread. And IF she can figure out how to reach her thread. And IF she understands what "Latest thread" does. It takes time to figure out. I just hope she doesn't take me wrong. Just listing the possibilities. We are missing you, Cathy!

    Cheers,
    Surely she will have an activation email from joining? She can get back that way. Mind you, it will take her about three hours to read this lot, watch the videos, and try to understand it all.
