Gosh, I love the GoPros. 

Well, mostly, kinda, yeah well, maybe like an old boyfriend you'll still visit.

I was one of the last people who won when GoPro was giving away one of everything they made in a daily drawing. 

Whoa! 

I even made one of those goofy watch-me-open-all-this-GoPro-stuff videos which was me in front of a very large box going -- "ooooo look at this ooooo." 

Goofy. Yes. Dork alert. Absolutely.

Hero 4 Black et al. Way cool, and by the way, the ONLY GoPro that never failed me (knockwood.)

So, GoPro had my heart and I followed along with a 5, then 7 and finally 8. The Five was good. Seven froze too often. I sold it. Eight seems to still have that freeze problem but I haven't used it that much.

Seems to me, they've added too much computer in too tiny an package attempting to corral their market share instead of making and continuing to support a good product. But that's just me.

So, the teeny, tiny camera I always carry (in addition, of course to the one I call the fukin' phone) is DJI's Osmo Action which never does anything surprising, except take very nice pictures, moving and otherwise.

I still have the GoPros. I still love them. 

Mostly, kinda, yeah well, you know. 

And sometimes I think the GoPro is embarassed to be seen with me. We've never jumped out of an airplane, skied off a cliff or swum with whales. When he gets together with the other GoPros down at the local, he must hang his lens in shame. "Today she rode the mountain bike up and down the street in front of her house." Of course, there was a wedding video that one time ... 

Anyway, a match made in heaven. Albeit a slower-moving, down to earth one.

-- NOVEMBER in the One a Day for a Year -- 

Who can believe it's November already? What a suck-fest 2020 turned out to be. Next week will it turn the corner or continue on unabated? I'm afraid to look.

Anyway, I'm closing in on an entire year posting and shooting a picture every day. I've played with the cameras more than I had in a long time. I'm glad I stayed with it.
