No 2 is very poignant I think Dan.

I look forward to the day when we have an opportunity to take a stroll. There is so much talent in that group you mentioned, I'm bound to learn one ot two things along the way!Hi Dan,
Yes the 21 lux was part of the recent used inventory. I got word from Dante that a Leica "horde" had arrived via a seller from Bellevue, and once I saw the 21 lux on the list, I jumped to get it, boy am I happy. Getting some DOF at 21 is amazing.
No worries about missing the grand opening. New granddaughters are far more important. Feel free to stop by anytime, and the offer remains open for you, I, Matt, and others to go photo strolling. There are quite a few of us GetDPI members hanging around (Ed Tan, Brad Husick, Kay Yang, you, myself, Matt, Al Tanabe, just to name a few)....
As for any prizes, LOL...I'll take 'em...:ROTFL:
Ashwin/Al: I took an early look at your show today...exceptional work by both of you! :salute: :thumbup: :thumbs: :toocool:Speaking of Glazers, I just put up my Exhibit, alongside Al Tanabe, another forum member extraordinaire. IT came out well, I think. The show's up until August 18th, with a GRAND OPENING on JULY 9th, @ 6 pm at Glazers Rentals Exhibit Hall (517 Dexter Ave, Seattle) for any of you who are local or who can make it...
Here are some tastes of the gallery...
Ok, Matt where is the image?I'll have to come back to comment; but, here's Ashwin reaching for another lens!

Cableguy55, lovely series, some great shots! . . . . . the first was my favorite, I love the bearded guy standing in front of all the Gillette Razors and Razor Blades! Wonderful capture!It's been a while shooting my M8.2
Taken during our last weekend in Singapore Little India
A place where Indians conduct their business and also migrant workers spend their weekends
People are friendly and love to be photographed
A couple more from Rhodes. These are gourds (I think) being painted for hanging decorations.

1.) The photo was taken at the conner of Seneca & 8th. The building is kitty conner with the Town Hall. The painting can be see on the East wall of the derelict building, just pull into the hourly parking lot and you can not miss it. Just west of the Benaroya Research Institute building which is part of the Virgina Mason campus. It is a lovely piece of work.Dan: Terrific photo! Beautiful color, texture and composition. Where did you take this?
Dan: Thanks. Yep, I picked it up from that pile of lenses at Glazers. It was on the bottom.
Dan: Thanks, again. My fav, too. Selling off my lenses...my wife wishes! Nope, keeping them all (until I sell them to buy something else).
Dan: Thanks. It's an unusual thing to see in this neighborhood.
Dan: Nicely composed. The relationship between that sign and the Space Needle's something I've captured before. Your take on it is great.
Dan: It shows up on my screen?
Cheers, Matt

Mohammad, a beautiful photograph! It gives the appearance that the boardwalk goes all the way across the bay. Nicely done!
Mohammad: Beautifull composition. The bridge at the right softens the potentially static single point perspective just enough to enliven it and give it scale. Great grouping of people. The strong dark sky pushes down to bring the eye to the foreground bicyclists. :thumbup:

2.) The only reason that lens was at the bottom of the pile is it is so big everything else was sitting on top of it!
3.) Yes, loved the grain on the violin, spectacular shot! . . . . . your wife is right by the way you should sell off your other lenses immediately. My suggestion is you sell them to folks who live close by at a reduced rate in case you need to borrow one. Just say'n . . . . .
4.) Yes it is a bit different, I just do not see to many statues and stone finished stone staircases in the Wallingford neighborhood. Outside one of the Pizza palors maybe . . . . . .
5.) Thanks for sharing your take on the 'Love & Loss' sculpture! Just love the B&W with the Red ampersand! Outstanding!
6.) Hey the photo of Ashwin is now showing.
. . . . . and if he is reaching for a lens he certainly has a pained look on his face, like he is saying, "Why am I going to touch this, I can't buy the darn thing. Come on stop showing me all these, I can't buy one every time I'm in the store."
Thanks for sharing.
