[Leica] Two new PESOs

[hlritter at bex.net (Howard Ritter)]

My wife and I attended the premiere of a short film, ?Karma?s Shadow?, made 
to raise funding interest for a feature-length film. My sister-in-law Pam is 
a co-producer (full disclosure: we have no financial interest in the film!). 
The premiere was in Roxboro, NC, where it was filmed. Ironically, despite 
the burgeoning success of the state of North Carolina in attracting 
film-production companies to the state, the legislature decided to withdraw 
the tax breaks offered to the industry, with predictable results. The rather 
distinctive personality of the NC legislature and governor are such that a 
net stimulus to the state?s economy is less desirable than avoiding, or in 
this case eliminating, gummint involvement in the shepherding of private 
enterprise. A triumph of ideological purity over practicality. (At least 
this is the picture that my SIL paints!)

I took my M240 along to get some photos of Pam on the red carpet with the 
stars and crew. I won?t bore you with those, but I saw a couple of 
photogenic street scenes:

C&C appreciated, especially on the crop of the one image and the dark tone 
of the other of the warehouse.
