A new year, new photos
Let's start the new year with deep color and pleasantries. I'm always fascinated by the so called point and shoot cameras. I will call them small cameras to distinguish them from those toy like cameras that are OK but leave much to be desired. The G-9 and the G-11 are examples of such units. On a trip they are absolutely right. They are unobtrusive, light and very capable. Ho camera hassles, no changing lenses. A trip should be enjoyable, it should not turn into a photo job.
The location is Greenport Long Island on a beautiful Saturday the springtime. Speaking of which, it's not to far away.

Winter memories / Yashicamat 125-G
Memories from another storm and another winter long ago. I loved my 6X6 cameras. If they could only make a digital one where one could focus on a LCD looking down like in the TLR's it would be wonderful. It would be very easy to implement.
This picture was shot in Prospect Park, Brooklyn.
The film was Tri-X developed in Kodak D:76 full strength.

BEWARE OF VIRUS
FYI TO ALL:
Dave's brother is a very advanced programmer who does computer work
for a living and has a high up status with Microsoft. He doesn't send
these if they aren't real. If he says this is for real, it for sure
is. Be aware.
VIRUS COMING !
I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this
virus!
I checked Snopes, and it is for real. Get this E-mail message sent
around to your contacts ASAP.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!
You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message
with an attachment entitled:
'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,' regardless of who sent it to you. It is a
virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc
C of your computer.
This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address
in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to send this
e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25
times than to receive the virus and open it.
If you receive a mail called 'POSTCARD', even though sent to you by a
friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. This is
the worst virus announced by CNN.
It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus
ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no
repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero
Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.
COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.
REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US...
