Picked up a very minty condition Pentax I-10 today at a super great price from a seller who seemed pretty eager to let it go. Finally I can stop worrying whenever Fitzand bugs me for my X-100 (!!!) when I’m out shooting. Yeah … this cute white baby is for …
The Impossible Deadline?
I’ve not been updating my blog lately. No … not because I’ve given up on all this fun and picked up fishing or playing Chinese chess with those uncles at Chinatown. I recently took up a challenge to be in some photography/camera project that is scheduled to start in October …
