Hi Ann, This is one that I thought I was responding to from my phone on Friday, but it didn't make it to the list. I really like it a lot. The fan adds so much to it; it definitely has a pre-1960 feel, back in the days before air conditioning was cheap and prevalent. I've been in plenty of churches where the light was streaming in, making the hot stifling still air feel even hotter than it is, with a lonely fan churning away in the corner, making no discernable difference. Your photo reminds me of those days. The fan is old, so is the light (if you know what I mean). Beautifully composed. Very cool shot! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
