looking forward

...to tomorrow.

along with the rx100 i plan on shooting with the m4-p and the little 40 sonnar.
been waiting for the proper adapter for the 35mm lines to show...something i don't have to concern myself with on the rd1.

i have to admit to being very curious to see what the sonnar looks like on film .

About the adapter, if you have the older type of the M4-P the 50mm frame lines might do for you. (For me they do)

Tomorrow is another day. I also had limited inspiration today. Unfortunately it is so cloudy and dark here that the PanF i have loaded in my OM is only useful for a few minutes per day at around 2pm.

I recommend a nice glass of wine and some optimism for the next outing. And I do subscribe to my own advice.

Cheers,
Rob

I have bad arthritis in my big toe (MTP) of my right foot ... on my only good leg. It was hurting like an SOB today, as the shoe was not fitting well. It eventually settled down and I was able to make four exposures on 4x5 to do some tests for some problems I've been encountering.

i tend to put myself under pressure as i mostly shoot only on saturdays...

sundays i tend to stay at home and try to be quiet...and with the snows approaching soon outdoor shooting gets tougher on these old bones.

joe, I've been contemplating the same thing, the advent of winter. I don't mind it so much, except that it physically impedes my shooting. Last summer was so hot that I didn't do much shooting then, either.

Bleh pretty much covers my feeling lately when looking for things to shoot lately. Going to head over to a small town along the Potomac River tomorrow morning in hopes that a change in scenery might provide some inspiration.
