Using the Yashica ML 2.8/28 lens, Legacy Pro 100, dev'd in Fomadon R09,
19 mins, 20C:

I journeyed south of town to this bridge which I hope is the one Paul mentioned.
Parked my car 50 yards from this beat up brown pickup and didn't see anybody in
the cab. Anyhoo, had to walk past it to take the bridge shots and gave the guy
reading a book quite a shock. Well, I've been accused of walking softly before. lol

So I took his picture:

Those are the bridges, Bill. Did the guy have a line in the water waiting on a catfish while he was reading? And what was he reading?

And what is a Contax 137MA? SLR?

Thanks, Paul, the light was lousy today, will try this area again when the sun is out. BTW, can you tell me what that white object is, behind him on the
ground? Never mind. Laughing

He was on a level above the water, not fishing, dunno what he was reading.

Patrick and Rolf, thanks for stopping by. My buddy Steve did some work
on this in SEP and cropped it, no more 'Rawlplug'! Laughing

BTW Bill, miss your exceptional avatar. You should relocate it.

Rolf, which one, not my ugly face? You couldn't mean that one. I'm thinking
of doing one of Sophie Marceau, now there's a face (and body). Wink

Why ugly ? I found it prominent. But Sophie M. would be also a good decision. I will change then my avatar with the face of Pierce Brosnan.

Will see what will happend.

She's a big fave, one of the most beautiful women of my time. She did a
movie with Monica Bellucci, but I'm afraid of seeing it. I'd probably short-circuit something. Laughing

Rolf, you're on, Sophie Marceau it is. Wink

ZeiEizh, thanks for your comment, I'm afraid there won't be any cookies and
milk before your nap today, however. Laughing

Ok Bill, my wife reckoned that it would be not necessary to have P.B. as an Avatar. After 25 years of marrige she still feels that my face would be good enough.

So here my new 2010 Avatar !

Shocked
