Thanks Craig and Peter.

 

The second one is a bit sentimental, perhaps. Ovid says that if you are unhappy in love you should hang out in a public place this is what I think the pix is saying. Actually, there is a lot of hanging out in train stations in Japan. Groups meet, but there are also a lot of people alone who just sit or squat there for hours.

 

Now Peter, are these rangefinder shots. The first is with a Canon 7s, a Leica screw mount camera and, therefore, a "Leica-copy" inspired camera. So it fits in with both "RF" and "Leica" catagories. It does have a Nikon S adapter. But that is within the canon (sorry) as Nikon lenses have been used on Leica cameras (David Donald Ducan being a prime example). That it uses Nikon S RF lenes with the Nikon S adapter reenforces its RFness. The second shot is with a Leica M6 and a 'cron 35/2 ASH. What else is there to say? I mean, you know, do question the Queen of England's pedigree? Now both pix were shot in traditional RF fashion: the first at eye-level and by focusing the until the two little images came together; the second at waist-level ("blind"). Given the above, I believe that we would not be too far off by venturing that these were indeed shot in the rangefinder style. (What time is it out there in Australia?)

 

Cheers.

Hey, cool, Balaji. Thanks for dropping in!

Only 11:32 PM

So <b>Happy Birthday</b> Peter...

<p>

Now get off the damn computer and go sink a ton of piss like any normal Ozzie would on

his birthday :))

Happy Birthday Peter!

 

I guess ultimately RF style depends on karma. Get some sleep Bro.

 

Meanwhile....

 

Here's what some people do when they are alone in a public place.<div></div>

Opps.... That should be "reappears." Maybe I'd better turn in myself...

<i>I think it is now too early to drink anymore - at the farm I prefer a toke anyway...which

may explain some of my posts this evening</i>

<p>

Hey Pete, Im coming out to the farm... :)))

Yeah, I like Craig Cooper's girl. Okay, if THAT'S what you...<div></div>

good shot Brad. Glad you included the 2 heads on the wall. Intentional?

Travis, thanks. No, I didn't notice them at the time - a nice surprise.

1st shot is really very good, Alex. Nice complexity of shapes to my eye. Rest of thread is the usual crud.
