Still practicing and learning the idiosyncrasies of the newstuff.(Then again, I'm still learning with my E-1s) Just a couple of random nothings.*1 Toney Penna @ MaplewoodTypical SE Florida intersection after the rush,Whopper.Parked outside of Burger King. Primary transportation for a couple of the burger flippers.Any comments are welcomed.I don't have a cat.Bill Turner

I must say that not having a cat (or two) deprives you of practice material around the house...OTOH, when I was in California (LA area) lizards were everywhere, so I set out bowls of "Lizard Bait" (meal worms) and practiced on the lizards that came around.... (I didn't have a cat back then).As you have demonstrated here, almost anything can make an interesting photo.I like the second photo a lot... First thing I noticed was that people in Florida drop their gum on the sidewalk just like people in Connecticut do.. Then I started to wonder "whats in that bag, hanging from the bike"?..Granted, it wasnt deep important thinking, but it held my attention for more than a few seconds. It made me think about the nature of people, so I think its a good shot. The "attention to detail" made it important.If you WANT a cat, there are several feral cats in my back yard right now I would be glad to put in a sack and send to you...

Really gotta love those Olympus colors and detail.When I first saw the bike shot, I wondered, what's a guy need 18 gears for in SE Florida?TFS,Craig

Those are excellent Bill!

Does this mean that you're feeling well enough to drive, Bill — or did you pimp out your wheelchair with a windshield?Good to see you up and about! -- Barry

Barry,I'm OK for driving. Getting to and from the car can be problematic The chair is in the rear storage area of my PT Cruiser!

Did you ever get the chair "pimped"???? -- Larry Lynch Mystic, ConnecticutIn all matters of opinion, our adversaries are insane. Oscar Wilde
