They like the photos but criticize me for my lack of people pictures. This has happened several times. Just to self-check, I went to the photos I have uploaded to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/grabe\/albums\/72157679142932196\">Flickr from this trip<\/a>. I can see some truth in what they claim. There are a couple of pictures of Cindy (taking pictures). This is a tradition. Other than that, no pictures of people. It turns out I have far more pictures of chickens and avocados. I could speculate on my photographic preferences, but that would likely get me in trouble.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/curmudgeonspeaks\/2017\/01\/28\/a-preference-for-chickens\/prefchicken\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1483\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1483\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.learningaloud.com\/curmudgeonspeaks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/prefchicken.png?resize=432%2C396\" alt=\"prefchicken\" width=\"432\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.learningaloud.com\/curmudgeonspeaks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/prefchicken.png?w=432&amp;ssl=1 432w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.learningaloud.com\/curmudgeonspeaks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/prefchicken.png?resize=300%2C275&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I take my photography fairly seriously.
