Thanks, Jack, for the kind words. I didn't put any pressure on myself
yesterday. I let a lot of shots go. I haven't been out shooting much, so
fun was the first priority; I just wanted to get back into the groove of
walkabout photography. Also, in Bill Jay's book On Being a Photographer the
authors suggest to sit in a public place and look for potential shots. Then
when you see one, just blink--no camera, just blink. I did quite a bit of
that yesterday. (I think it was Bill Jay's book). Anyway, thanks, again.
Cheers, Christine

Can't say just why, Christine, but I absolutely sense your photo passion in
these really well conceived shots. Truly enjoyed them all.

the Brown line to Washington and Wells, then walked all day
around downtown, then north to North ave and Clark
street. I took the Clark street bus to Foster, walked
around some more, then headed a bit west, got off, then
walked another 4 blocks home. I got home around 8:30
p.m. I haven't walked like that in a while--great
fun--had a blast trying out the K-5.

soooo love this bag), I carried the K-7 with the FA 50mm
f1.4, and the K-5 with the DA 21mm f3.2. I also brought the
DA 40mm f2.8, and various girly things. Below are
links to a gallery of 14 color pics and a gallery of 8 black
and white pics. I've listed the metadata--some of the
shots are at ISO 5000!!! And there are
brief captions as well.
