Resonant Enigma Too: Purpose

I'm making this into an "Art Blog"; more painting and drawing, less aimless wandering and whatnot. Not that there's anything wrong with that ...

2/19/2020, Harmon Field north towards the creek

~


I thought I might walk a few laps at the track but that mean north wind blew me back into the car, and I just took some pics through the windshield.


Still playing with the "new" Nikon D5600 I got last August. It's so much unlike the film type SLR's I used to use I'm not really too enthused. At least these are in focus...


Also learning new editing software that came with Windows 10, which seems a bit limited compared to what I'm used to but I think I'm done with ArcSoft. I downloaded their free trial version of PhotoStudio but when it came time to pay I broke down and for once in my life read the Terms of Use agreement, and could not agree.
I don't exactly speak 'legalese' but it read to me like they are reserving the right to make any use they see fit of anything you scan into their software (pullin' a Zuckerberg?), and they got rules concerning what type of thing you're allowed to put in! After you've paid for it, in your own home, on your own private computer. Maybe I was tired, maybe I read it wrong, but I hit the "no thanks" button.
Anybody read the Terms for Adobe PhotoShop?

Now that I think of it though, it's probably way too late to worry about any level of "privacy" - or any kind of "rights" for that matter -  on a computer. I've never read the Terms of Use for Microsoft either...
