Hi Nathan:

Infrared isn't my kind of film for most things - but your pictures are
interesting and I would like to have seen some of them in color,
especially the vineyard and the chateau.

The one of the tree is outstanding - and the film makes the most of the
composition and the contrasts are wonderful.  Beautiful picture.

Glad you are having a good time with the R2.  Look forward to anything
you have to tell B.D. about it.

Ted in Olalla
