I have 16GB of SD cards and 400GB spare on the laptop, I will do my best to
reduce that.
Friday we spend afternoon and dinner with Ted, I hope. What an honour and
thrill. Ted wants to walk around with me and Leicas!
Saturday dinner with 20 from LUG. We are in the bay at sunset then drinks
and dinner. Woohoo!
Muir Woods,
Yosemite,
Grand Canyon,
Red Rock canyon
Going to Big Sur, Carmel, Pt. Lobos with Bob Adler and Doug Herr next week.
This is one of the places that Edward Weston hung out. 
If I don't get inspired I am dead. Bronwyn will send you all of my Leica
stuff. I am taking an 18, 24, 28, 50, 75 with the M8!
Wish you were with us.
I hope Alice liked her flowers! I was touched with your warm reaction when
you got the prints. Nice to share with friends.
Attached a quick play with your fine shot, You know I love to experiment. 


Cheers
Geoff

Pick up your camera and make the best photo you can.

Thanks Geoff.
No crop , just a little rotation.
Clouds, well, should you see the sky this morning again - 100% clouds,
nearly uniform swan grey  ;-)

Have a safe trip and a pleasant stay over there..
Enjoy the views, shoot a lot, shoot everything: people, places, eferyday
vlowers, daily SMs, hourly graphic details, (instant signoritas?), inside,
outside, inbetweens, and share the feeling with us.
I don't expect fewer than 2.5 TB from you ;-)

I'll sure have one to your healths when you're there of course.
Amiti?s
Philippe
