RE: Exposure Vs. Exhibition
I think Double Exposure is perfectly ok and would probably be understood in context - presumably the introduction sets it in context. Double Exhibition doesn't really work for me. -- Bob -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dario Bonazza Sent: 01 February 2008 16:33 To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Exposure Vs. Exhibition Hi all, I have to translate into English an introduction to a picture exhibition by a dear friend of mine. The problem is that the Italian title he has chosen sounds like Double Exposure, which in Italian language can of course be understood like a double esposure and like a double picture exhibition as well (the latter actually being the main nuance of that headline). However, I'm afraid that Double Exposure won't be perceived as a double exhibition in English. In fact, my friend is the author of the pictures while his daughter wrote captions and little poems supporting the pictures, hence Double Exhibition makes more sense than Double Exposure. How would you title that? Is there a way to keep the double meaning? Thanks a lot.

Jostein, Yes, they cite Libbrecht in the article as a leading authority. I've never checked his web site. It's a hobby for him. His paying job is Chairman of the Physics department at CalTech.

Re: OT Fargo ND
North Bob. Oh i;m back btw. Never did make it to Fargo. We ran out of time Friday, and had to park the loads for the weekend at the Mich/Wis border along highway 28 in the UP, at Ironwood.. They can not travel on the weekend in Wis, and they did not want to pay for us to stay for the 2 days, so we came home. Real pain these over sized loads in Mich with all of the restrictions. I think they are looking at a route along Northern Ontario to Minny then to Fargo. Mich restricts to 35mph. Again permit problems led us to a lot of hurry up an wait time. Two days to go from Ft Erie to Pt Huron. There are 38 loads to take, so hopfully i can do a few more before i hear about the bus, but from what i hear from the company owners, they would like it if i stayed on. Not sure if i will. I really am to panicy for leading, and atleast one owner seems to be on my side.
