W/NW Pic of the Week # 52

Thank you, Barry. It is nice to know that my photos do not shout that I am a noob. Poor Mukul, he has fielded some

ridiculously noobish questions from me. Nevertheless, it has been a really satisfying year.

Great stuff, friends!

<p>Indeed, happy New Year to everyone! Another lovely year in the books. Another yet on the way. As for photography, it is a privilege to enjoy everyone's work here week after week. Barry, thanks for doing what you do, and for keeping us straight!</p>

<p>Lugwig,</p>

<p>Nice pictures and great use of the CLE!</p>

Some great pictures. Barry I well remember that amazing cultural document of the accoutrements of the Californian

beach goers. And your first is strangely reminiscent of that amazing first photograph by the photographer of the Wright

brothers' plane.

<p>Yes, neither one of them flew very far :)</p>
