Nice Arab characteristics...forget about any more camera
equipment, though...and any thoughts of retirement should be
put off by about five years.

trainer, the bank

with the return of my

I had the
| microprism viewscreen installed.  I had also just taken
delivery of a 280mm
| f/4.8 Telyt-V with Televit rapid-focus device, complete
with shoulder stock
| and spare adapter.  The result of all these new things can
be seen here:
