“You can’t go back home to your family, back home to your childhood … back home to a young man’s dreams of glory and of fame … back home to places in the country, back home to the old forms and systems of things which once seemed everlasting but which are changing all the time — back home to the escapes of Time and Memory.”
Exploring the Depths Through Underwater Photography
The realm of underwater photography is expanding each year, driven by divers who aspire to unveil the submerged wonders to those who haven’t experienced diving. Our enduring fascination with the enigmatic oceans and bays has perpetually marked them as uncharted territories. Presenting vacation snapshots to friends or marketing them professionally has been an age-old custom, now amplified by the capabilities of digital photography, enabling us to transport the underwater world into our homes.
Various underwater cameras are available, ranging from high-end professional models to entry-level options with limited effectiveness. Selecting the camera that suits your needs is of paramount importance. A pivotal aspect of this decision may revolve around the housing you intend to acquire. Given the imperative to shield your camera from water’s corrosive effects, purchasing housing with watertight seals is essential. These housings often align with specific camera models, and most manufacturers provide housing options for their cameras. Should you need to upgrade your camera for underwater endeavors, comprehensive packages encompassing the camera and housing are worth considering.
Let’s delve into the realm of 35mm cameras. Most of these cameras are designed for point-and-shoot simplicity. They typically incorporate mild filters to compensate for the underwater color shift if intended for underwater usage. However, they might not effectively filter out particles that obscure visibility on days with poor conditions. Their operational depth is often limited to less than 100 feet, making them less suitable for depths below 80 feet due to concerns about housing integrity under pressure. Though such failures are infrequent, they remain a legitimate concern for most photographers.
Professional-grade cameras are on the other end of the spectrum, distinguished by their larger size and substantial lenses that facilitate light entry. These cameras often feature filters that enhance image clarity. They cater to individuals with a profound interest in underwater photography, albeit at a high cost. Digital cameras are the preferred choice for underwater photography, allowing you to preview desired effects before leaving the underwater scene. While marine life might not wait for a second shot, stationary subjects like coral reefs and their inhabitants can be captured effectively.
Most underwater cameras incorporate a built-in flash. Undertaking an underwater photography course is recommended before diving deep into this hobby. The flash can be both an asset and a hindrance in different scenarios. While it can enhance certain photographs, it may overexpose subjects and spoil prints in other instances. Underwater cameras are also suitable for snorkeling excursions. Flash options include built-in models and external units, which often resemble sticks with small light bulbs on top.
Storing your underwater camera and flash without batteries is advisable, especially for cameras that rely on AA batteries, which can deplete rapidly. Underwater photography offers an enchanting world to bring back home, particularly for those embarking on dive vacations. It requires a nuanced understanding of lighting conditions, setting it apart from conventional photography. Nevertheless, captivating images can be captured consistently with a grasp of these intricacies.

Eggs of Ducks and Geese in 28 days;

Eggs of the Parrot and the Ostrich hatch in 42 days..
(Notice, they are all divisible by seven,
the number of days in a week!)
See God’s Wisdom in the making of an Elephant…
The four legs of this great beast
all bend forward in the same direction.
No other quadruped is so made.
God planned that this animal would have a huge body…
too large to live on two legs.
For this reason, He gave it four fulcrums
so that it can rise from the ground easily.
The Horse rises from the ground on its two front legs first.
A Cow rises from the ground with its two hind legs first.
How wise the Lord is in all His works of Creation!
Each Watermelon has an even number of stripes on the Rind.
Each Orange has an even number of segments.
Each ear of Corn has an even number of rows.
Each stalk of Wheat has an even number of grains.
Every bunch of bananas has on its lowest row
an even number of Bananas,
and each row decreases by one,
so that one row has an even number
and the next row an odd number.
There’s more…
The Waves of the Sea roll in onshore
Twenty-six to the Minute in all kinds of weather.
All Grains are found in even numbers on the stalks.
God has caused the Flowers to Blossom
at certain specified times during the day.
Linnaeus,
the Great Botanist,
once said that if he had a Conservatory
containing the right kind of Soil,
Moisture,
and Temperature,
he could tell the Time of Day or Night
by the Flowers that were Open
and those that were Closed.
The Lives of each of us
maybe ordered by the Lord
in a Beautiful Way for His Glory,
if we will only entrust Him with our lives.
If we try to Regulate our own Lives,
we will have only Mess and Failure.
Only God,
who made our Brains and Hearts,
can Successfully Guide them to a Profitable End.
When you carry the Bible,
Satan has a Headache;
when you open it,
he Collapses.
When he sees you reading it,
he loses his Strength,
and when you stand on the Word of God,
Satan can’t hurt you!
And did you also know…
that when you are about to Forward this Email to others,
the Devil will probably try to Discourage you,
but do it anyway.
Life without God is like an Unsharpened pencil – it has no Point.
I pray God bless you in ways you never even Dreamed.
1 – Eleven teens die each day because of texting while driving. Maybe it’s time to raise the age of Smart Phone ownership to 21.
2 – If gun control laws actually worked, Chicago would be Mayberry, USA.
3 – The Second Amendment makes more women equal than the entire feminist movement.
4 – Legal gun owners have 300 million guns and probably a trillion rounds of ammo. Seriously, folks, if we were the problem, you’d know it.
5 – When JFK was killed, nobody blamed the rifle.
6 – The NRA (National Rifle Association) murders no people and receives nothing in government funds. Planned Parenthood kills 350,000 babies every year and receives $500,000,000 in tax dollars annually.
7 – I have no problem with vigorous background checks when it comes to firearms. While we’re at it, let’s do the same when it comes to immigration, Voter I.D., and candidates running for office.
8 – Folks keep talking about another Civil War. One side knows how to shoot and probably has a trillion rounds. The other side has crying closets and is confused about which bathroom to use. Now tell me, how do you think that would end?
Don’t be afraid to share this. There’s more logic and common sense expressed here than probably anything you have seen on the news today.
It appears everything in Washington is crooked and on the take. Not just Congress but the FBI, the CIA, the Justice Department, the Pentagon, the Generals, literally everyone in Washington including those in the past administration. Add to all this Silicon Valley and the social media, cable news, biased media, and foreign intervention. These groups amalgamated to become the Deep State.
President Trump didn’t have a chance. He walked into this mess four years ago and tried to clean the swamp. But the swamp monster ate him alive piece by piece starting on Day 1. Unfortunately, his actions over the past few weeks in disputing the election had a small role in the events at the capital. All the good he did over the past four years wiped away. He’s a marked man for the rest of his life. So where does he go now? Where can he live? What is the impact on his family? As one top general said yesterday, he’s a man without a country.
The changes that are coming will have time to affect senior citizens and will impact their children and grandchildren. The coronavirus impact on our country is mild compared to what lies ahead.
Now you understand why there was never any action against the Clinton’s or Obama. How they destroyed emails and evidence and phones and servers, how they spied and wiretapped, how they lied to the FISA Court, had conversations on the tarmac, sent emails to cover their asses after key meetings, how Comey and Brennan and Clapper never were brought to any justice, how the FBI and CIA lied, how the Steele Dossier was passed along, how phones got factory reset, how leak after leak to an accomplice media went unchecked, why George Soros is always in the shadows, why they screamed Russia and pushed a sham impeachment, why no one ever goes to jail, why no one is ever charged, why nothing ever happens.
Why there was no wrongdoing in the FISA warrants, why the Durham report was delayed. Why Hunter will walk Scott free. (Diaper wearing Joe will give his whole family pardons) Why the FBI sat on the laptop. Why the Biden’s connection to China was overlooked and then they unleashed the perfect weapon, a virus that could be weaponized politically to bring down the greatest ever economy and usher in unverifiable mail-in voting.
Why the media is 24/7 propaganda and lies, why up is down and down is up, right is wrong and wrong is right. Why social media silences the First Amendment and speaks over the President of the United States.
This has been the plan by the Deep State all along. They didn’t expect Trump to win in 2016. He messed up their plans. Delayed it a little. They weren’t about to let it happen again. COVID-19 was weaponized, Governors helped shut down their states, the media helped shame and kill the economy, and the super lucky unverifiable mail-in ballots were just the trick to make sure the career politician allegedly with hands in Chinese payrolls that couldn’t finish a sentence or collect a crowd, miraculously became the most popular vote recipient of all time.
You have just witnessed a coup, the overthrow of the US free election system, the end of our constitutional republic, and the decline of capitalism into the slide toward socialism.
Expect the borders to open up. Increased immigration. Expect agencies like CBP and INS and Homeland Security to be muzzled or even deleted. Law enforcement will see continued defunding. The electoral college will be gone. History erased. Two Supreme Court Justices might be removed. The Supreme Court will be packed. Your 2nd Amendment will be attacked. If you have a manufacturing job or oil industry job, get ready. If you run a business, brace for impact. Maybe you’ll be on the hook for slavery reparations, or have your suburbs turned into Section 8 housing. Your taxes are going to go up, and businesses will pay more. I could go on and on. There is no real recovery from this. The elections from here on will be decided by New York, Illinois, and California.
The Republic will be dead. Mob rule and appeasement will run rampant. The candidate who offers the most from the Treasury will get the most votes. But the votes voted won’t matter, just the ones received and counted. That precedent has been set. “Benjamin Franklin was walking out of Independence Hall after the Constitutional Convention in 1787, when someone shouted out, ‘Doctor, what have we got? A republic or a monarchy?'” Franklin responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.”
Ladies and gentlemen, you will now lose your Republic. You turned from God. You turned from family. You turned from country. You embraced degeneracy culture. You celebrated and looked to fools. You worshipped yourselves selfishly as you took for granted what men died to give you. You disregarded history and all it teaches. On your watch, America just died a little. It’s likely she’ll never be the same again. Some of you have no idea what you’ve done. Sadly, some of you do.
Here are the Republican Senators who voted to Impeach President Trump. They should all be removed from office for not following the wishes of the people they represent. Traitors. Look at 10 of the dumbest people in America!
Cigarette Smokers residue can take years and years to leach out of walls, carpeting, A/C system, and air conditioning ducts — if it ever comes out. You might think your nose, that Ol’ stink-o-meter would know right away that a smoker has been at work leaving that smell all over your soon-to-be home, but that may not be true. If you smell the strong smell of Febreze, ammonia, bleach or even fresh baking cookies (sneaky) can disguise the wicked stench. UNTIL, One humid afternoon soon after the sale, the rank aroma of spent cigarettes could start oozing toward your unsuspecting family nostrils. Be proactive and beat the butts, you may never fully be rid of the odor. Make sure you’re buying a non-smoking home.
The best idea would be for a customer not to smoke in their homes but that is not going to happen, so we must deal with it.
Tobacco smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals. About 70 of them are known to cause cancer.Smoking cigarettes are the number-one risk factor for lung cancer. But, smoking can affect your entire body and is known to cause cancer in the: Lungs.
