Anyone else read Dewitt Jones' article in the September 2006 issue of
Outdoor Photographer?
It's about purposely taking blurry pictures while driving, walking,
etc.  I don't think I could get as excited about it as he does, but it

Prophets are honored by everyone, except the people of their hometown

hi, when i went to the store to buy my first safelight, the guy told me
that i can use this for black and white paper, but film can get ruined
by it because it is still sensitive to red light. but if i use black
and white film can i still use the safelight? i'm not very good at

You crazy SOB!
Now you claim to be a Leica expert!  
The guy that shoots "50 rolls of film in a single session," and can't find a single keeper in the entire bunch!
Let's see those pix of the choo-choo trains again--the ones you shot on an Instamatic . . .

Spike was either showing off today or perhaps just passing a little

In b&w.

I've been having some shutter problems with my Nikon FT2 and I brought
it to the only local shop with an in-house guy last week.  I guess the
shutter windings need to be replaced and the estimate is $250.
Is this pretty average?

I needed a couple of quick & dirty 4 x 6 prints, so I copied the images over
to a CD-RW and went to a Kodak Kiosk at CVS Pharmacy.  They had a one-hour
processing facility there, and I got a look at the equipment, which was made
by Fujitsu.  There was a roll of film that had just ...

I just ordered a Nikon F100 and I'm looking for wideangle/moderate telephoto

I can dream can't I?  :-)

How good is this film? How does the grain compare with
regular 200 speed film? I want to use it to take photos
of indoor events (get-together, etc.). I don't intend to
take natural light photos, but use just the built-in flash of
