BOTOH: I enjoyed what he said! to wit, when my girlfriend allowed me to foto her nude, I first used my SLR (which done jobs to pay for my M6 /w motor) cameras loaded w/ Ilford 400/72 exposure film) I was wild, like Austin Powers character, jumping all over the studio, rolling on floor; year later, she allowed me again; I had just got a 35/'cron, I was much more relaxed and like Erwin says the M experience was cool, she was cool and the pictures from it was keepers. Maybe it was maturity (I had just turned 30) or was it the M6? I remember F1 driver Mario Andretti(sp?) speaking in Playboy magazine how driving a F1 car is like making love to a woman. The Playboy readers didn't think it was shrill, they requested (and got) a reprint!!! <paul> - --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
