I don't have TV so at first I didn't know anything about the show. But I did find some of their episodes on YouTube and watched a few. It must be popular because there are, what, 4 or 5 seasons of it.

Yes, they are miners of gold in Alaska, here the series is named Gold Fever, or something like that. It's sort of "B" plan when you have nothing good on TV and outside is raining or worst,

I took the new M3 for a walk Sunday. Summicron DR on PanF 50 ISO.

Me too I was considering to get a M3 - a BMW, actually.
Now serious, the second shot has an impressive 3D rendering. Very good angle and perspective of the building. I use sometimes a Leica-R Summicron too, it's a very impressive lens, love it, I have underexp, a bit, but it's a matter of taste,


Cheers,

Using a soft-box instaid of the window.

There are a lot of reasons I like this shot, but -as I eventually do in digital also - I'm very impressed by the way you killed, exterminated, and disappeared with the noise in these series primarely with good lightning.

Keep posting, great series,

Cheers,

So you might've seen my little town and place of employment on the news recently due to some protesters desecrating the flag in the name of political activism.

I guess I can't comment either way due to "the rules" but I can show a photo. Today the students here rallied against disrespecting the flag and took to the campus mall en masse to support the symbol of our freedom. Lots of scanning to do as I shot 5 rolls of film...

More images, if you don't mind:

Corran, interesting and thanks. News does not seem to be showing counter protest, which from your photos seems to be a newsworthy dynamic.

I finished it off this morning with a wider and darker base. The softbox is an old Mole-Richardson from the sixties.

Agree! So an update - there is now a manhunt on for the lead protester whose backpack was found with a gun in it, after making statements that could be construed as threatening and terroristic. (These statements meant as information, not politics! )

Another rally on Friday, with currently over 3,000 people possibly coming. I will be shooting more images!

For now, here's a patriotic dog:
