This, however, does tend to produce stinky cameras...

I just love how your avatar is a sheep...

And in other news:
No sign of the camera this side of the globe yet... However that storm heading your way does look pretty nasty..

Let's be careful out there..

Thankfully not much happened in my area. Some flooding and loss of power. Hopefully everybody in the storm area is okay. I know Shawn and Newt both live in NYC and Ron doesn't live far from me. John Nanian and Rick A are also on the east coast.

Rick A · Oct 31, 2012

Im inland, north central part of Pa, we did get rain and some wind though. Our storm was mainly from the noreaster, some local areas lost power from downed trees on power lines. My son is stationed in Norfolk Va, and they didnt get hit that bad. I was in Williamsburg Va, and left sunday just ahead of the worst part of the storm.

All good here, spent most of the storm printing in my darkroom in the basement. With the music on I didn't really notice anything. Thankfully we are located centrally in Brooklyn so there was no flood damage. Tons of downed trees and smashed cars the next day though. I had to drive out to lower manhattan to pick up my elderly grandparents as the whole area had the power cut off. Kinda weird out there in the les, no traffic lights, I had no cell phone reception, an no inner city noise really.

To All:

Sorry for the delay. I held on to the cameras last week to purchase a protective case for the Stylus. I don't mean to blame the storm for the delay, but northern Queens was hit hard, and I've been without power now for two days, with no end in sight.

The cameras are fine, and STILL ready to go. We'll get back on track with the cameras next week. Thanks for your patience!

Regards,

Shawn

Rick A · Oct 31, 2012

Glad youre okay Shawn-- no rush on the cameras.

I was stationed in Norfolk once upon a time. There was one storm bad enough for the Navy to send us out to sea and naturally the storm veered away from land and nailed my ship. I found out that it is possible to get sea-sick on an aircraft carrier.

AAAggggHHHH! Cameras coming and I have nothing to wear and my apartment's a mess. Plus I don't know what to take a picture of.

flatulent1 · Nov 14, 2012

Take a picture of yourself wearing nothing in your messy apartment. Problem solved!

Wasn't that the theme of Round 3??

flatulent1 · Nov 15, 2012

I was thinking of your 'tasteful' nude shots on the camera that disappeared...

Of course there's always my tiger-striped Speedo!

We don't mention Cameras 7 if you please. I am sure Sile will present us with more titillating images in the future. All on cameras that get lost.

I have recently gone to Germany to purchase sexy European dainties. Would y'all like to vote whether I model these for Camera 9?

I thought not.

One more day till T-Bird day break. Maybe I should dust off the Deardorff and git out and shoot this week.

I think I'll pass. I'm more of a leopard print guy.

There is a whole lot of men in here offering to model and not a lot of photo's forthcoming... Put your dainties where your mouths are!

This is Tri-X isn't it...???

Inneresting things can be done with Hi key lighting and Tri-X....

By the way... that sounds kinky...

flatulent1 · Nov 16, 2012

If you're suggesting that Tri-X is short for Triple-X...

I'm in!

In all actuality, yes it is. It was a natural progression from Kodak after XX-pan, so it really is Triple-X (all in the name)!
