Delightful! The lion was appropriately grumpy. ;-) Cheers

My employer provided a laptop computer for work done while on site and professional work off site, even at home. All non-work required computer tasks were done on my personal equipment. I purchased (owned) and controlled the software on my personal computer. The employer/company owned the work computer and the software on the work computer. Licensing on the work computer was controlled by the assigned member of the IT staff. Yes, two seats and two copies of the same software were required. It was very easy to turn in the company laptop when I retired, since there was no mixing of purposes or software on either computer. That computer turnover was smooth—the IT staff was grateful—all records and software inventory were in order. This is all part of being a professional.

Oh my. I guess most of the members of this forum have not experienced the era of fees required of each user on each workstation. Indeed, if one worked on two workstations of the same OS, it was two different licenses. The same three people working on three workstations required nine licenses! A big advance came with the hardware lock—a device that plugged into the parallel port that allowed access to the program. Now three users still needed three such locks, but the lock could be carried from workstation to workstation. Oh, if the lock were lost, one was required to repurchase the program at full price. Then there was the UNIX licensing daemon that required constant feeding every few months as subscriptions expired and required reactivation—those codes were very long and complicated. Those were sure great times. ;-) I am delighted with Serif's exceedingly reasonable pricing policy! Cheers, Joseph

Thank you, Sir! another Chatsworth House animated lion to brighten my morning on this side of the pond. Cheers.

Please sir, I want some more talking lions! Watching this was a great start to my day—thank you for doing this project. ;-)

Thank you for sharing your work and thoughts. You and Kodiak are inspiring!

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing, for I am learning by studying your work and reading your thoughts on your own work and the work of others. I now search the forums for anything you and Aeros4 post because these posts are always of such high quality and match my photographic interests.

I can imagine the fun one would have basing a cityscape on hyperbolic geometry. ;)

I do like these! A D810 with 600mm lens must be hard to hand hold—are you using a monopod or some other aid? I have seed some photos of kits mounted on rifle stalks, but I have never seen such a beast myself. Your results with the FX system are making me regret my DX family choice! Time for me to break out the weights and build some muscles. ;-) Solly

Thank you for providing links to these resources Miguel! I know that the video tutorials appear in a sticky under Forum—>Learn and share—>Tutorials, and links to Affinity Review appear on the product website, but I always forget how to get to your additional learning resources link ( I have multiple dedicated bookmarks for it so that I do not lose it). Would it be possible to add a sticky to Affinity Review and your additional resources link in the Tutorials section of the Forum? Thanks, Solly

Fun stuff!! The style reminds me of government type (USA) products from the early 1960's. By the way, change the habitat and markings just a bit and it will also work on the western side of the pond. Keep up the great work!

The subject, Hopewell Furnace, is very interesting as well! This reminds me that I need to get there this summer. I look forward to see how your project develops. It would be very cool to have such graphics for each of the parks represented by the current US quarter national park set. Well done--keep experimenting!

The information in the tutorials was very helpful to me. Thank you very much for your work--I look forward to the series you mentioned.

Really wonderful, Marty! I look forward to seeing more of your work as I am partial to rail road themed art.

Andy, that is GREAT news!!!
