From the archives I pulled this one. C-19 isolation makes time move slower. We manage to do more -- food for thought.

Yours truly in a former existence as the "Nikon Guy" :)

Kissed by the sun in Greece, and sometimes by the photographer. Here posing with the Nikon F and the workhorse 24/2.8 Nikkor.

Honey moon. Yes, I do remember. She's long dead, though.

So, the image carries lots of sentiments...

Ok, this is pretty rough & ready as I tried a few editing steps I'd not attempted before.
Plus the I used stupid unsharp mask settings on the zoomed in section....

But whilst playing with some macros (see Unusual Flowers thread elsewhere) I also noticed myself in the final image
(well....nothing that the police could use to pin anything on me....)

Nice! One needs always to be careful for privacy.

It is nice to see how almost everybody likes to take pictures. Not everyone likes to pose but to take them? Sharing the toys.

  I really like the "alien skin" exposure film presets

Thank you Carl,


   I have been going through the archives of may 2018 for the school and I found this "photographers in action". Granada, end of the school year show.

Paco, thanks for reminding me on this very nice time in Granada, and the participation in both the rehearsal and to the nice show. However we did not have cameras with us at this particular time ;)

Currently, Ruth and I are making a video presentation for an upcoming Music Therapy conference, which these days has to be virtual. Thus we need a lot of background images and it has been my task to look through my archives to extract suitable footage.

Today I found this which is too good not to be shared. Not useful for our Music Therapy theme, but as a homage to the eager Photographer, who is a friend of mine.  Many NG members might guess his name (and no, it's not me in an earlier manly identity). And the lens is nice, too.
