Merci Sebastian. Glad you like it!!
Thanks for the report and kind words, I hope he will be more comfortable and out of pain soon. Wish him my best when you visit him again!I visited dpal yesterday afternoon. He is totally bed ridden due to the fall. According to him, he was helping a friend putting up a heavy hanging flower pot and lost his balance, fell backwards. Fortunately he landed on his left buttock and back and did not hit his head. The doctor told him that he suffered no broken bones. But I could tell that he was in a lot of pain still during my visit.
I told him about pegelli's post to wish him a rapid recovery. He asked me to say thank you to pegelli and said that pegelli is his No.1 dpi buddy and a very fine gentleman whom he really respects. He also asked me to thank Vivek for his kind words, and said he highly respects Vivek's many selfless helpful posts to all the dpi members. He said he was all set to go back shooting posting as usual after reading Vivek's comments. But his posts about the "Street Photography" article must have jinxed him then. Bad Karma. And that was actually my fault for bring the article to his attention.
To clear the confusion about the photos with the "99 car", two entirely different families thogh, the cars were available for rent. That was because we were at the Seatle Outlet together. I wanted to buy some Polo apparel gifts to my friends in Japan, and since I don't own a car and driver's license, dpal was kind enough to take me there. After shopping, we sat at the bench in front of the Polo Store and snapping away at passers-by. dpal let me try his Sony A7, but you can tell my pictures came out a little fussy, out of focus. The only good one was the one with the two African ladies and the boy in the "99" car at the store.
Hope this updates everything.
And dpal is a he, a retired and highly decorated LAPD(Los Angeles Police Department) Officer, if you read it backwards. I am very honored to have him as my neighbor.
