Hi Doug.  If you like bokeh and blur, you're gonna love my photos of the
week!  More bokeh and blur than you can shake a stick at.  All taken in the
theme park that masquerades as a city, Orlando, Florida.  Like a fool, I was
shooting at night with a Summicron and Tri-X rated at 200.  Just left the
lens at f2.0 and spun the shutter speed dial like a roulette wheel (my meter
said don't shoot; I said screw it and shot anyway).

And for all you fans of more normal happy snaps than I usually deliver, good
news!  Check out the week 08 alternate page for some good clean All-American
beer commercial fun involving good lookin' women and an eight foot snake!
