> Quite an interesting set. Thanks, Dan. I’m not new to hiking, but somehow I’d never noticed the fungi before, certainly not in the quantity and variety I encountered on these hikes. The K5 with a split-image viewfinder and an A 28/2.8 are proving a satisfying combination for me. I’m getting more comfortable with LR, though of course there’s a lot more to be learned. I’ve been fantasizing about taking the time to get to know the Chattooga Wild and Scenic River—think “Deliverance”—to really get to know it---and then take the time to photograph it. Perhaps combined with interviews of people who have a history with the River. (At a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the designation of the River as Wild and Scenic I had a long conversation with an old-timer who grew up fishing in the River and it’s tributaries and has been an activist on it’s behalf for several decades. Afterward I thought, “Dang! I’ll bet he could lead me to some good shots. And he probably has some good stories to accompany them.” And then I thought further, “Very likely there are others like him from different sectors of society that have a relationship to the River.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net “...we are a form of invitation to others and to otherness..." - David Whyte -- 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.
