Anyway, uhoh7, I see from your photos that you live close to the mountains and as an old trials bike advocate, I noticed the bikes in the photos. Are we talking NorCal or Colorado? Forgive me for not following every thread on FM but I just don\'t remember any locale descriptions to your photos.
Nice photos, BTW.
Hi Jim,
I only follow a handful of threads myself--as you know better than me the place has many good shooters and a few who accidentally take a middling shot here and there and perhaps share more than they should-- like me.
But Andrew\'s pretense to taste is a shame, because there are many who really do have great shots, but hold them back because of that sort of \"mentoring\".
I just hope some of my less than brillant examples will inspire some of these folks to post more out of sheer mercy
Typical shooter today: highly jaded and hypersensitive. Which is a somewhat limiting concoction, hehe. Even the most level-headed sometimes confess they are seldom \"wowed\" by any image--one guy said he never saw a single nex image that impressed him! Meanwile some of the best photographers in the world are selling work shot with an iphone! Open up a bit, I say.
Now to what makes leica mtf pale by comparision: my little spanish beauty.
(leica 50/2)
Now by andrew\'s ethos I should certainly not own, let alone use such a thing as this, but luckily financial nessessity preculdes that sort of constipated police state In short: Spain needs money.
Jim, you probably had a sherpa T or the like back in the day---I had a suzuiki 250 produced in the wake of \"On any Sunday\"--which i did ride in norcal.
Unlike travel poster photography, things have progressed in the field of trials motorcycles--as you likely know
of course I ride just like that
(CV 21?)
(Canon LTM 100/3.5)
it\'s all idaho
Since I spend money on resoulution I don\'t need, I seldom travel anymore, but maybe once my leica 28/2 shows up I\'ll take a shot of my old passport
Anyway, the bikes are down to 300cc, 145 lbs and about 8k + all the things you need to change for long range riding.
The nex has meant I can finnally take a decent camera
The locals generally approve:
(Olympus 135/2.8)
I enjoy your site, and I hope someday you will put aside the modern notions of aperture clicks and lens barrels that don\'t rotate---and maybe do some contax to M conversions!
