Janome Coverpro 1000 CPX
Do I really need another new toy? I guess so, cuz I bought it. And I got a good deal on it from my favorite sewing machine store, too. It really pays off to support your local businesses, and it feels good, too.
Anyhow, the video . . . it shows the model prior to the CPX, the CP. I am not quite sure why the CP was discontinued – I think I read it had some feed issues. The reason the video is posted here is to show some of the attachments and how to use them. I like information like that. I am watching the video before I play with the machine, and probably others, too, to learn what it can do. Then, sit down and read the manual, and get around to playing.

Indian Trail

This is the beginning of a trail leading all over Wildwood Park. Along the creek is where trees grow – here, oak trees and poison oak! Stay on the trail, no problems; off the trail, risk an allergic reaction. “Poison Paradise” as a friend calls it.
Here, 5 image HDR, handheld, manual focus, using the Nikon D7K and Tamron 17-35mm f2.8. Post-processing in LR5 and Photomatix Pro.
Much better mood this morning!
A View Across the Canyons

I was out early this morning, not in a really good mood, but after looking at some of my photos, I realized I had a far better morning than I thought. Funny how the mind is . . .
