I have a batch of sapphires from the Songea area of Tanzania which I am heating for color. I also cut the bottom of a fantastic Blue Sapphire I dug up in Ethiopia some years ago.
I edited two more images from yesterday's people sniping practicing with the 90mm VM f/2.8 APO-Skopar.

Wonderful image. Is this event at the old post office, by Franklin Street, in Downtown Houston? Last I knew, Coffee and Cars, or something very much like it, was held somewhere else, but then I saw the buildings in your image, and did a google search.
Hi, yes that is exactly where this monthly event happens. It's been moved around town due to violations by obnoxious folks but it's finally settled in well. Thank you

This guy made a really nice street portrait subject. The good thing about the 90mm is that I can shoot from a good distance away. Although this guy noticed and enjoyed me shooting him, we never spoke. So sort of still candid. most don't even know I am taking their portrait when I use this lens. With my 35mm and wider I have to get right up in their face and it is never really candid.

I noticed you had no problem using your 21mm and getting close with those TV ladies.
