Thanks, Dave! I left it in colour for one reason, and one reason alone: the watermelon. I thought it was an essential part of the shot and would have been lost in monochrome.
Glad you had a chuckle. Thanks to all who commented. I never did find out his name (I posted it on the FB party page hoping one of the other party goers would tag it, but no) but he shared the watermelon and it was delicious! cheers, frank "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: David Mann <[email protected]> Sent: July 19, 2012 7/19/12 To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: PESO - The Dedicated Picnicker Love it. If it wasn't in colour I'd have thought it was some classic eccentric photo from way back.
