Thank you, Mark -- for the kind words on the photo and my mom's passing.
You're very fortunate to have your mom right there nearby. It's a
tough, tough journey -- direct care or otherwise. But, I simply can't
fathom how much tougher it would have been to have my mother spend her
final days in a place where I couldn't be with her.
I certainly wish you the very best and will keep you and your family in
my thoughts. Please feel free to email me off-list if I can be of any
support, whatsoever.

I'm sorry for your loss, Walt. My mother relocated to Kalamazoo a
couple of weeks ago and is in a nursing home here, thankfully right on
the campus where I work. I have some sense of what you went through,
though I am not providing direct care.
I like this shot - The light and tonality are really great!

Hi all,
Well. Having recently laid to rest my mother after a long struggle,
I suddenly find myself with more time on my hands. So, it seemed
like a good time to start participating in the list again.
My re-introductory submission was taken this past Friday night, when
I met up with friends for a few drinks in celebration of my birthday
the day before. I'm not sure what the shot details are on this one,
other than that it was shot with my K-50/1.4 on my K-x. I'm guessing
the aperture setting at roughly 2.8 and the ISO around 800, with no
flash. I haven't the foggiest notion what the shutter speed was,
though. Nevertheless . . .

I do love that 50/1.4 and hope to actually learn to use it well
before too long. Comments, critiques, and carrot cake are welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Walt
