Thanks fellas.
Damn nice pic for sure.


Clearly there are some photography skills here.   Something I do not have.    Cool
I got pretty decent at it for a while (at least I thought so).  But I was taking pictures of my niece dancing.


Some of it is the photographer, and some of it is the hardware.   There are limits to what a basic point and shoot can do.

Yeah I used a Canon T5i, and was always in manual for her dances.  Worst possible type of pics.  Fast movement and low light.

I have some expensive ass Canon Rebel something or other.  Some day I will actually learn how to use it..... probably not any time soon though.

Yup that is what I have.  When you learn the basics of the camera, getting the right settings make sense.

Then of course there is editing afterwards which I learned somewhat, but the program does most of the work.

For the price I should be able to just click a button and let the camera do some magic.  Too bad it doesnt work that way.

I was gonna show a picture of my car, but apparently the attachment won’t attach. Don’t have an image account. 

All I can tell ya is I have a black 2007 Acura TL Type-S which is soon to be on the auction block.

It only allows files up to 500kb.  If you go to imgur.com you can click the plus sign in the upper left corned to upload an image.  You dont need an account or anything.  Once it uploads click the menu in the upper right and select get share links.  You want the BB code i think its the 3rd one down.  Or just post the imgur link and i can edit it

There it is. Thanks for the lesson. Afraid what little computer-type skills I ever had have atrophied. 

I really hate to sell it. It’s fun to drive, but it’s time to whittle down the fleet for financial purposes. 

It’s always been like having a really good-looking girlfriend; fun to have, but needs constant, expensive attention, even as a Honda product.

It looks sharp!  I've been to hundreds of auctions but never an auto auction, is it just the quickest/easiest way to unload it or some other reason to go the auction route?

RE: Reader's Rides! - Yukon - 06-09-2020

Auction was a poor choice of words. I just meant I’m selling it.
