I love the intricate work they put into some of those buildings.vaxhackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230489514627637967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-60354922594696348432011-11-10T11:55:28.428-08:002011-11-10T11:55:28.428-08:00Vaxhacker, It has been many years, but I am pretty...Vaxhacker, It has been many years, but I am pretty certain that this was taken at the "Grand Hotel" in Taipei. It is a building with classic chinese architecture, one of the few in the city. I wish all of their buildings could look like this!Delirioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01564398770468606675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-85021553119303531052011-11-10T11:00:59.804-08:002011-11-10T11:00:59.804-08:00Too bad about the focus, but it's still a beau...Too bad about the focus, but it's still a beautiful image. I love that architecture and all the colors.

So I go to one optician who knows my problem. Slightest change in the angle of my specs and I end up with a severe headache.Padmini Natarajanhttp://padmum.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-45348506651093804802011-10-31T06:08:13.995-07:002011-10-31T06:08:13.995-07:00When I fail to avoid a mirror, I find lack of focu...When I fail to avoid a mirror, I find lack of focus helps me considerably to preserve my mental self image without it coming into conflict with the objective reality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-81856047925664828282011-10-29T19:49:43.182-07:002011-10-29T19:49:43.182-07:00I have difficulty with "glasses" as well...I have difficulty with "glasses" as well. I have 2 pairs both for different things although originally I made "do" with the one pair.<br /><br />When you get older opticians believe you need bi-focals but they do not necessarily work for everything...<br /><br />I was informed at some point that if I wanted the bi-focal to work better with my computer - I would either need to upgrade to tri-focals or get a 2nd pair just for computer<br /><br />the costs meant I now have 2 pairs! The computer pair do not work well with watching say the TV or even out there doing other things...which makes it more difficult at times to understand why things are not "focusing" as they should...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-53904679341385548332011-10-29T04:55:10.119-07:002011-10-29T04:55:10.119-07:00My neighbour and good friend Chandru recently woke...My neighbour and good friend Chandru recently woke up one morning with double vision in one eye. After much testing and probing experts have concluded that nothing is wrong and that he will revert to normal soon. Apparently it is due to his diabetes. I however could not resist the temptation to tease him. For Chandru, who is 78, all females are Sweethearts and he takes great delight in calling them as such. I just told him that he now gets two sweethearts for the price of one, thanks to his vision.Rummuserhttp://www.rummuser.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-106697443742113552011-10-28T21:16:26.013-07:002011-10-28T21:16:26.013-07:00A year ago I set my camera up on the tripod and go...A year ago I set my camera up on the tripod and got a nice group photo. Checked the picture on the camera back and all seemed well. Then I got home and saw the picture on the screen. The auto focus was off and I hadn't manually focused.
