Today i set out to Dryden, NY which is between Cortland and Ithaca to visit a Barn Bookstore. These are as you might imagine Barns that have been converted into used bookstores. i actually found two - my intent was to take my M6 and noctilux and photograph in the barns. Got to both of 'em and they of course had wonderful florescent lighting so I had to be content to use the Noctiluz outside just snaping pics of the barns themselves. I did pick up some interesting photo books - a compillation of HCB pics from USA, a first edition of collected Ernie Pyle war articles and a photo essay about Cleveland by Cervin Robinson. when I got to the register the owner of the book store said "gosh I'm so happy that there are others that appreciate him like I do" I had to admit that I had never heard of him before but i liked the book from the outside!? Anyway anyone else heard of Cervin Robinson? the bookstore owner went to say that Cervin died in his apartment because he failed to get out when they were demolishing the building bizarre). Anyway that's my weekend - I have not gotten around to developing the HP5+. Bill I don't know if this is what your looking for but here it is anyway. Ernie
