Have fun, Dave!! The closest I'll come to such rustic environs will be Saturday morning: planning to talk a walk along one of the ravine recreational trails. <g> It looks like this might be about the best weekend (at least down here) for colours. I even have colour film in one of the LXen <audible gasp from crowd> in anticipation. BTW, Saturday will also find me over at Elmpro Labs, getting back a blowup of one of my GFM sunset shots - that should be interesting! Anyway, hava great Thanksgiving, Dave. I know I will. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
