Wonderfalls

When I go on treks and the sort, you want to capture landscapes, the folk with you, max zoom for birding, protection from dust and rain and humidity, low light. If the tiny lenses in phones work then tech is already there for incredible photos from a dedicated camera. Actually, this discussion...

I'd like to go the other direction and put the improved algorithms, sensors and processors in into the p&s cameras, MFT, bridge and SLR's. However, Sony and Samsung are the biggest sensor makers by far. So, it might in fact be a business decision on their preferring to focus on phones, coz they...

And I know plenty of people who live bitter and resentful lives without having ever tried any mind altering stuff.

I am in Canada so don't know of any groups in India that are English speaking but will definitely DM if I come across any. No Kolkata based groups? I am fairly new to recovery but find the NA book a much better read than the og AA one.

I'm grateful for na/aa. Did you have track marks covered up with the tattoos @quaratineinthesejeans

Jagdish Vasudev is far worse.
