Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

I haven't been on this thread for a while but I would like to tell you I am off to the Outer Banks. I'm in Virginia right now and we passed a few interesting artifacts.

Grandma looks like a boat. Too bad. She's missing out on all the fun.

This has to be driving you nuts. All this bad math.

It’s chicken math, she will just have to learn chicken math!

Aww - thank you. I don't think they are wide enough. I need to learn to take photos in portrait mode - it just isn't as easy using the phone.

Landscape tip: Put your finger on the volume buttons. They act as a shutter button on most phones, making it easier for snapping photos in landspace.

Well I rather think that Hamlet the big classic is my favourite, murder, despair, insanity…. Regret. All the usual themes of any good book, movie, play.

Richard III by a long way - it is all so deliciously evil!
Hamlet is such an agonizer he drives me nuts, and don't get me started on the teenage angst in Romeo and Juliet!

Maybe @BY Bob or @Ponypoor can help you 'fiddle' with these to make them work for the contest????? You know I'm no help in that department. Maybe techie @notabitail could help, too?????

Depends on how you want them cropped. If you crop them into a widescreen, they should be wide enough, but resolution is an issue. If I know what phone @RoyalChick has, which will tell me the resolution of the photo, and the original photo, that would make it easier, as the calendar contest needs the original. BYC compresses the photo on upload making it a ton smaller.

It’s chicken math don’t you know?

Could be that by here are actually no chickens on those photos…

Oh that is hilarious - but it really undermines the whole basis of Tuesdays. Need to think about that!

Turn the phone sideways, it should automatically orient to that way. If not then you will need to go into settings and set the auto rotate.

Now I know exactly how incompetent you believe me to be. Yes I know that! The issue is that I am almost always one-handed because I have chicken food or a shovel or something in my other hand and it is impossible to turn the phone sideways, aim for a picture and click the shutter with one hand. Can do all that in portrait mode.

Oh thank you! I just tried it and it worked. That definitely makes it easier to take landscape pictures. What a nifty tip. Still hard to do one-handed but definitely going to try and do it more.

iPhone 13 Pro Max (or so it tells me).

I have a hungry Dakota here. She was on the porch, pecking at my screen door, squawking her head off.
She is now having breakfast with me

I get steak and eggs, she gets layer feed and safflower seeds

No more Ritz crackers for her. She farts like an elephant
