Chinook on a lawn never looked so cool. Nice blog and nicer stories 🙂

Nice post & photos again, Steve! I really like the one of your parking spot at Saints Cafe. I think it's appropriate to go to a cafe called Saints on Sunday mornings.

You and Junior do some cool stuff together! Even just hangin' out is fun.

Thank you for adding me to your blogroll. I'm humbled and honored.

Thanx for the great photos and tributes. I love the comment about the Chinook helicopter not flying, just beating the air into sumission.

Love your description of the dog and fire hydrant ritual ... truly a religious experience for the k-9 -:)

If it's the rangefinder experience that draws you to the Leica, perhaps you might consider an M9? Then again, I guess it might be the cathartic nature of the darkroom ... or not?

Buon viaggio ...

Interesting. Just this morning I was thinking about how I'm starting to treasure my little rituals more as I get older. Like sitting down with the first cup of coffee and looking out the window while I drink it. Those kind of things.

Maybe it's because people like us still have so many things going on otherwise. Photography, riding, writing, family, and so on. Even Apache gunships touch the ground regularly!

Steve, for me, shooting digital and film creates a little disorder in workflow. I always liked getting into the darkroom to make prints. It's something about the creative process. But, here at the new house, I do not have a darkroom space. For me, the best of both worlds is to shoot film and develop it. Then I digitize it in my scanner. There are programs that try to make digital images look like film, but nothing looks like film but film itself. It's finding a happy medium that allows me to be creative.

Good luck with your prints.
