1. I could not tell you a favorite.

Each of them is a total treat. They are works of art, just like the subjects they depict.

You, Alfredo,are increasingly posting great stuff that speaks to me.

Your photos look like Tekisui came to visit and he brought along a wagon load of .... and then you guys turned on the color together.

(I miss his photos, this rocking work of yours reminds me of that I miss it)

2. What a compliment! Thanks. I was just over at his photo stream

http://www.flickr.com/photos/tekisui/ He's better than I'd ever be.

What happened with him.

7. He is very very busy all over the DU Board keeping a necessary eye on the war

in Afghanistan, and if you go to his journal you will see what I mean.

May I ask you, (again), what camera you use? I used to think that all I wanted for Christmas is George Bush in jail....

They are just phenomenal pictures.

[alfredo]

8. Thanks for the info. I checked out his journal. The camera

is a point and shoot: a Canon G10




I wanted the Lumix LX 3, but it was nowhere to be found. It uses Leica branded lenses, but lacked a good telephoto.

Also check out the Canon S90. It's more pocketable than the G10 and has better low light results.



I do a lot of research at amazon, cnet and dpreview. http://www.dpreview.com/

15. Good. I finally joined the site so I can take part. I see that

our contest rules are very close to the rules on dpreview.

9. that is not our tekisui

ours is in NC, this one is in NM, which is not to to say he is not good, but it is not him

[Mira]

10. ARE YOU SERIES? I've thought it was ours all this time, and now I found out we have

two with the same name?
I never looked at a profile because I thought I "knew" him, and responded a few times to him, too, with more familiarity than he expected, I bet.


Thanks for cluing me in.

edited to ask:
which one posted the photo of the huge pile of
"weed"?

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

12. no idea, but I know his real name

and that is not the name on the flickr account, which of course, does not mean anything... I have emailed him for clarification

[Tindalos]

3. Definitely warm and sunny

The colours in these pictures are distinctly summery. Ok, it probably doesn't feel that warm yet but the pictures convey that sense.

5. The reflection from the wall created a nice micro climate. Warm!

This is the coolest coffee shop in town. The owner is an artist, and hell raiser. http://www.thirdstreetstuff.com/

The owner is bottom right.
From their gallery

Hendricks (to the right) is their resident sex symbol. Good guy.



Nashville people, I believe Pangea used to, or still does buy stuff from this coffee/gift shop.
http://www.pangaeanashville.com/ It's across from the Pancake Pantry.
