A snap shot of some dress window badly exposed and whatever else it is. But hardly a worth while PAW photo! You didn't hold the camera straight. The exposure is off for the window... you are too far away from the window as it might have been interesting, "might have" I said! You see here's what happens at times when we get hung up on signage. While we're standing there it sometimes makes a some sort of sense in our minds eye as a photo, but the minds eye doesn't transfer to the film. ERGO! we expose a piece of film that doesn't do anything like our mind thought was there. You're not alone, everyone here has done it before and if they haven't look what they have to look forward to. A photo that didn't transfer from what they saw in their mind to what it looks like on film! Sorry mate, may I suggest you go to the Games and possibly come away with a great PAW for next week. :-) ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
