My lasting mental photograph of Winnemucca, is one of a cowboy, his old pickup truck and very aging small Airstream. It sure looked like he lived and traveled in that Airstream. I can see him perfectly...

I like the colors!

Nice shot, buggz. I dunno about you, but I love my X-E1.

Heh. If I was buying right now, Randy, I'd probably go for the X100s.

It is becoming hard for even a old divorcee to justify another camera to himself.

I am going to use what I have, D7000, for a few more years. It does all I need.

I find great peace shooting film, and then darkroom time. Kinda like that Zen thread, but as anyone knows, Zen is not knowing.

Thank you Roger. That's very kind. I do spend a lot of time on my photography (I breathe and eat between shots), but if you could see my contact sheets you would know that I continue to make a great many bad pictures. I don't know what my 'batting average' is of decent pictures but let's just say if I were a baseball player, they'd be sending me back down to the minor leagues. I can also tell you that you're going to get sick of these desert pictures pretty soon. :-) Thanks again.

To your last statement, I very much doubt it.

I think I just have too many interests. If I canned everything else I do for fun and out of interest (IOW, not work for family obligation) I could probably spend twice as much time in the darkroom and shooting (in that order - I do enough shooting, it's darkroom time I don't have, what with set up and clean up until I can get some #$%^ running water down ther) where was I? Oh yes...then I could turn out 2-3 photos a year I really liked.

Nice shot, buggz. I dunno about you, but I love my X-E1.

Yes, nice.

I traded my XF 18mm and 60mm in for the new 18-55mm zoom. I'm liking it as an easy to carry, one lens kit on my XP1. I take it hiking frequently these days.

Beautiful shot, tuco. Is that the Velvia simulation?

I'm dying for them to come out with a pancake lens for it. I got the 18 just because it was the most compact lens in the lineup, but it's not really all that compact. I'd love to have a fast, 40-equivalent pancake lens. When they put a pancake out it will probably be the 35-equivalent that's on the X100s, I guess, which is fine, too.
