FYI, fellow FB photographer friends: Over the summer and as of this past week, I’ve slowly gotten rid (via trade-in or selling) all of my DSLR camera equipment, and am now a bona fide “Mirrorless Camera ONLY” photographer (now having had my Mirrorless for the past 16 months). While I do not (yet) have the […]

Gun Control Article and Statistics
Gun Control Article (opens in a new window) Great article, with statistic sources cited. Here is one thing that I wanted to copy and share: “…there isn’t another country in the world with as many guns as the U.S. The U.S. comprises 5 percent of the world’s population, but owns between 35 and 50 […]
