John - keep reading the thread... :-)  answer there and a nice link

I knew exactly where i was but not the name of individual peaks in the 
range. .. and I always do keep ALL the frames when I was shooting 
chromes , even if they are lemons, for the reason you mentioned.. in 
addition to extensive notes ... because i was shooting a lot for stock 
and I had to submit all info...


Dan and an Ansel Adams photo I saw on line got me a suitable answer..

You and I both often answer the original post, rather than the replies 
that people make who saw the post before we did...  I can tell or

you wouldn't have asked the question :-)

Not a distraction though ..

Do you have the slides from before & after this slide?

When I'm trying to figure out where I took a photograph and don't have 
the info at hand it sometimes helps if I can figure out where the 
images before and after were taken and see what Google maps will tell 
me about how to get from the "before" location to the "after" location.


It will often spark a memory.

I hope this helps and is not just a distraction.

Re: Pentax Spotting

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Asahi was a great company, that made superb glass and wonderful
state-of-the art cameras.  IMHO, none of the corporate successors to the
Pentax brand have lived up to it.

For those who may not be aware of the name, "Asahi" is a popular brand name
in Japan, including Asahi Beer (which is wonderful) and Asahi Shimbun, one
of the major newspapers.  It means morning sun (Asa+morning, Hi=sun or
fire, as in hibachi).  It also however means "Rising Sun," as in the red
disc that appears on the Japanese flag and Japanese military aircraft.  As
such, for years the company used other brands to sell their cameras in the
US, because of the ill will many WW II veterans and others felt for the
Rising Sun  symbol.  Thus, the Pentax was branded as a Honeywell when it
was initially imported to the US.  A similar feeling led to Nissan cars
initially being marketed here as "Datsuns," to avoid the bad taste that
Nissan (another version of Nihon or Nippon, ie, Japan) still had for many
Americans.

Times certainly have changed.
