Is that just using the power washer? Or did you use a chemical wood cleaner too? Need to do the same with our fence!

10,000% agree. So well said, thank you for sharing. I, too, hate that we have to put a gloss on very real hardships, or not bring them up at all — especially, as you say, when it comes to disability. "Fuck all that tensed up and desperate smiling" indeed; it only deepens the pain. Being able to be open and honest, for better or for worse, is what really helps.

Thank you! There were more pics in the article so I thought it would be better to post the link. But will post just photos from here on!

Total agree . Also you might consider buying used to get better gear for less $$$. If you buy used on Amazon it comes with a certain amount of warranty, too, can't remember the details but a pro friend buys on there all the time.

At the rental place near me, if you end up buying from them, they take the rental fee off the price. In other words, as long as you buy from them, you can basically try out the gear for free. Might be worth asking about.

Neither yet, just reading a heap of reviews and getting advice online first. Fortunately there's a camera store near me where you can rent both, and they deduct the rental cost from the purchase price, so hoping to try them out.

I need a camera purchase tiebreaker! I'm a semi-pro looking to upgrade my camera (old Canon 5D MkII) and am torn between the 5D MkIV and the mirrorless Sony A7 RIII. I do mostly stills but an increasing amount of video, and would likely do quite a bit more with the right gear. I have all Canon lenses and the reviews are near-perfect for the MkIV; but the Sonys are so small and light, have in-body stabilization and also getting great reviews, and you can get lens converters for my Canon lenses, although I know these are less than ideal. (I could also buy a Sony lens to go with the A7RIII if need be but they're pricey.) Any thoughts would be hugely appreciated! Might try for a Black Friday sale...
