that bad by the way). I appreciate you being able to voice your opinion, but
based on what I've seen you post (maybe one image over 3 years?) I'm not
sure you are backing up your opinion with any?evidenced experience.
Actually, your comment sounds a bit like a conversation that begins, "Well,
you see?I have this?"friend" who only shoots pigeons..."
So show us your pigeon shots :-)

PS - Jeff, congrats on the new baby! Have fun shooting it; more than some do
around here...

I don?t know about harsh, but if I see 2,234,534,234 images of sweepy-brush
things, I am going to think you need to have a life.
My buddy still takes pictures of pigeons.? He has no life.

Aw, c'mon, that's a little harsh!? By the time the camera came in and I
got out the door on this, the first day I've had it, I had about an hour
of watery grey winter light left.? I kind of like the paired yellow/green
subjects I stumbled across.? And as for the Noctilux, I bolted it on the
camera because it's been a challenge to love on the M8, and I wanted
to see if I had a higher hit rate with the M9 for any reason.? It's not
like I went out and *bought* a Noctilux to take digital pictures of
sweepy-brush things, I bought it years ago when it was my magical secret
way to get to use film with tighter grain than T-Max 3200 even in dim
bo?tes.
You don't like the light on those bristles, or the stoplight/hanger/building
pattern?? I thought they were pretty neat.
Here, would you prefer a nice picture of a laughing Tony Shalhoub being
interviewed by a man in his underwear?
