Hi Frank I nearly got into a fight yesterday when I was looking out for some "useless" things for the coming PUG and took a photograph of an old Vespa motorcycle in Zurichs most famous "night life and drug quarter" Langstrasse. I did not see the cocaine dealer just behind the Vespa about 20 meters away on the other side of the street but he firmly believed that I was pointing at him with the ME Super and screamed and came dangerously near.
He wanted to see the shots immediately and asked what kind of digital SLR camera I had ;-) He told me he would smash my face if I would not stop taking pictures of him. I managed to calm him down without arguing too much because I wanted to bring my newly acquired Tamkumar 85mm 1.8 lens and my loved ME Super and myself safely home. He was somehow irritated when I explained him that I only took a shot of a "useless thing" ;-) greetings Markus >>-----Original Message----- >>From: frank theriault [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Sent: Monday, October 17, 2005 8:12 PM >>To: [email protected] >>Subject: Re: PESO - Perspective (Grown up's perspective on Child's >>world) >> >> >>On 10/17/05, P.
