At the last LHSA meeting in Denver I sure wished the windows of the bus
were optical glass.
Here we were driving by the most beautiful scenery in the world and
inside the bus/s we were most of us armed to the teeth and rarein to go
with our exotic Leica gear and the windows DIDN'T OPEN.
I Hope in in Chicago in October they do and we all wear sweaters and
silk/wool undergarments. Being from Chicago area it is not quite
comparable to Colorado but has its high points. I'm looking forward to
going back. IF the sessions were half as good as last time I will be
quite happy. (slideshows and so on)
It is frustrating to the Max to watch the kaleidoscopic scenery pass by
through the varibley tinted and curved glass. LHSA should have a special
bus make with multicoated optical flat glass from the black forests of
who cares where. The M6 on my lap almost inploded with frustration. I
fired of frames in random directions just to relieve the pressure. You
laugh but ask the people sitting behind me.
And clean the bugs off! (If they can survive in October Chicago.)
