I really like that San Remo shot.
That wedding shot looks just a little too much of a setup! Photographer gets picture of another photographer taking a wedding shot. Were you part of the photography team or just an accidental participant with camera? (It's a great pic either way!)
Thanks, Jim:
I have seen a few professional bridal shoots in the park, these chaps were taking snap shots in comparison.
I was hanging around enjoying the colors and stumbled across the setting. had to take a couple of photos.
Congrats on the 911, my fave sports car. If I were in your neighborhood, you would have to hide the key.

I think the wear is actually appropriate, just some paint loss no major damage. I think they are very nice! Far cry from today's plastic fantastics; not complaining, the high performance zooms today are incredible.
Thanks. They are still smooth as silk. (Yeah, I know, it's a cliche.) One day I'll spring for a Z lens, just not yet. With the FTZ those old lenses work better than I do.
I love the 200. An F-mount 300mm f/4.5 AI-S circa 1981 is coming in next week's mail. It will an interesting comparison which one gets more use.

He! It's not a 911. It's a 718 Cayman, Porsche's only pure sports car (along with the Boxster and Spyder). Mid-engine, turbocharged 4-cylinder, 2 liters that make 300hp, peak torque from 1900rpm to 4600, top speed 170mph. Far faster than I'll ever see. But it does make for nice pics.
When you are ready for a 400/5.6 and 500/8, let me know.

Now I'm inspired to take my vehicle out for a shoot. HMMMMMMmmmmm, it needs a bath first.

Only if you have a 600, 700, 800, and 900 to complete the numeric sequence. Otherwise it would be like a set of four teacups with one saucer missing, I'm afraid. Oh wait, I don't have a 100 either. Bummer. I'll have to pass for now.

Well seen and very delicate.
Thanks, it's amazing what one learns to see when the allure of bright fall color is missing.

That's quite lovely. I can't decide whether it looks like a Monet or a Renoir or a van Gogh. Probably all three!
I'll take either or all three!

Don't think I've ever shown this POV before, the entire (crumbling) bridge in one view, the light was hitting it well that day. 50mm f1.4 pano stitch. https://www.pbraymond.com/img/s/v-10/p1197565107-6.jpg
This view will never be the same when the bridge is gone.
