Team,

Searching through old camera bags always yields a fantastic find, or two. I 
present, my old Softies:

I know we all miss Mr. Abrahamsson. I had the pleasure of meeting him at the 
LHSA Spring Shoot in New Orleans many, many moons ago. I bought these very 
Softies in the Sazerac bar in what used to be the Fairmont Hotel (now the 
Roosevelt). He pulled them from a well-used bag over cocktails. Stephan 
Daniel was there, too,  lending equipment, and I borrowed a Noctilux and a 
R9 with the 21-35 zoom. What a trip.
