Thank you, Ted!  I find that minimalist is sometimes the best approach.
With the Rollei, I zoom with my feet, and engage a subject since, with
rare exceptions, it ain't no stealth camera.  On the other hand, a
Rolleiflex in 2014 tends to start conversations, which lead to some
interesting photographs.

Best,
Jim

Hey Jim my old friend! :-)

You find the damdest characters to photograph! :-)

I think a couple of days doing a walk about with you at some of your
county fairs would be "PHOTO MIND-BOGGLING!"

One I'm sure would require several spare batteries and image cards! And
obviously a few extra lenses or cameras for the "quick - change
situations!
:-)

Although you do a smashingly great job with a Rollie and fixed lens. My
goodness, I worked a number of years with a couple of Rollies and a couple
of Leica M bodies, lenses and film!

Good on you Lad,  a simple clean and interesting photograph.
cheers,
ted
