Surely the one who keeps a fire burning would be an arsonist.

No..an arsonist cuts and runs! ...although some get into the crowd and watch from a distance.

Hi. I know lemminster quite well. Sterling is another old stomping ground from the mid 80s. Apple orchards and old factories.

Went to NESOP in Kenmore Square. A great working photography school, have no idea what they are like these days. roteague... northern california... never gets hot. Lived in Medford and New Bedford.

Anyhow, welcome. And what is with this camera in shop? You need a second camera. or 42nd.

Thanks for welcome Tim.
Leominster is still here and has become a nice place to live these days. The town actually bought it's own apple orchard a couple years ago. The Mayor didn't want the last apple orchard be sold for developing since we are the birthplace of Johnny Appleseed. It has worked out nice, the orchard is making a profit for the town and also is a great place for town events. I was happy to finally catch the blossoms in bloom this year and captured some very pretty images. That was my test roll for my just returned camera.

You would be very surprised to know how many cameras I own.
Not counting my very first 35 slr yashica from 1975, I have a nice supply of Leica's including..m2, m3, m4-2, r6 and my faithful workhorse r3.
I do everything with my r3.

I think I had heard there was a park made out of an apple orchard out there. Nice idea. Here in silicon valley, there are two farms left. One is a park, one still produces fruit. For how long? The greatest apricot and plum producing valley in the world... gone. The world is not better for it.

I apologize for the thinking you only have one camera. I thought you said you weren't shooting because your camera was away being CLA'd.
Me, I have to first choose a format, then choose a camera. Of course, when a photo has to be made, the FM2 always comes along for the ride. It got me through NESOP and has never failed me. An extension of my hand.

I always wanted one of those m4-2's.

Best of luck.
