Hi there! I must apologize for not only be silent on the list but not even being able to lurk :-(
I am now situated in Baltimore, Maryland - DCPDML gatherings abound :-) I will be back in the warmer confines of Florida starting next week through the New Year though... Anyhow, I really should have posted this sooner... The weekend I arrived in the DC area, to begin this hopefully short phase of my career, coincided with Tom VanVeen and Ashlee's (#7) wedding in DC. Okay, so I did a bit of juggling to make this all happen but ssshhhhhhh, don't tell them... I arrived just in time to precede Tom's walk. I did not have a chance to pick camera gear and I even forgot my coat in the car! I think they were both shocked and happy to see me. I took the liberty to convert a few of my *ist D shots to b&w - mainly due to the lighting in the place and my lack of using flash - and posted a few on the web. Take a look at: http://groups.msn.com/MyRugbyPictures/7tv.msnw to see them. It was a nice ceremony. My favorite part was seeing the couple grab instruments and joining in on the music. Tom asked if I was going to report it to the list. Let him know that I finally did - my apologies for being late. I am looking forward to spending more time with them this coming year. Hmmm, let me see if I can get him to show up at GFMtn for the NPW... NYCPDML beware, I do try to make frequent trips up that way. It has been too long since our last gathering. I may even break out the medium format gear for that gathering :-0 All those within reach of Baltimore, D.C, NYC, etc. please get with me. I will probably be up here until next summer. I would really enjoy getting together with any PDMLers I can. I brought all my digital, medium format, screwmount, and most k-mount Pentax gear up with me, along with all my photos and slides - I hope to catalog, or at least put these shots in albums while I am up here. The *ist D continues to take great shots (at my direction), Cesar Panama City, Florida in Baltimore, Maryland occasionally in NYC -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
