Relaxing in my backyard this past Sunday.

Sunny and 80º = a good day for a family portrait!

Left-to-right:

2010 Stanley Clarke Signature Deluxe, 2014 Europa 5-String "Royale", 2013 Custom "Crown of Creation", 2009 Spyder 44/50.



Looking just as ravishing from behind!

Great collection there shame the picture isn't larger so we can drool with clarity. :-)

Yeah - I'm a little disappointed myself. The pix are really pretty nice.

The upload process capped each image at 150 kb max which translated into images app. 2" x 1.75" @ 72 dpi.

This seems a bit extreme especially considering the fact that I've uploaded larger images previously.

Maybe someone can edit these so that the images are larger - ?

You don't really need to change the image size, just increase the JPEG compression to reduce the file size.

Definitely jealous! The past week here has been full of single-digit temperatures and snow. My Alembics have only been outside recently to take them back and forth to gigs in their cases.

Nice collection! And send some of that nice weather eastward!

I feel your pain...positive thoughts re: warming trend headed your way.

FWIW: I grew up in Wisconsin (two seasons: winter and mosquitos) and jumped at the chance to move when my employer relocated to slightly warmer New Jersey.

Unfortunately, that also became unbearable between November and April - hence the move to AZ.

Now, I'm embarrassed to say, temperatures less than 60º bother me more than the 110º + we routinely see here in the summer.

And don't get me started on snow...

David, if you want to email me the original pictures I will resize them for you so that they are big when you post them. rustyg61@gmail.com

That would be most excellent and much appreciated, Rusty.

Will do.
