Some kids in Spain did the same thing.

This has nothing to do with dA. It DOES have a lot to do with how inventive people can do amazing stuff--and it makes me steamed that the fed govt. is sending trillions in the direction of overstuffed Wall St. exec’s

back in the day i had my own slr body
pentax k-1000
not a high end
but mechanical
one of the last ones made
very basic
no program, apeture-priority, or shutter priority settings
just match needle light meter in the viewfinder
pentax kept trying to discontinue it back in the 1980's & '90's
the people just kept on purchasing it
i also had the requesite bounce flash, 50mm lens, 28mm wide angle, 80-200 zoom
the body has survived numerous falls
have'nt used it in years
but now i'm thinking, hmmm

I am quite in love with digital however... I have no patience for developing film, or the limits on how much film I can carry. With the digital, I can go out for an entire week, without having to buy any support items, and produce photographs on the fly (portable photo processor that will do my 4x6 photos)
Eventually I will upgrade from the S-7000, as much as I love that model, but, it has it's limits... fortunatly, none of those limits are anything that limits me at the moment. Not for the type of photography that I do at least... mayhap once I get into something like a lot of outdoors type of stuff, I'll start to see those limitations, but, so far, the sky has been the limit!
i think i was drawn as much by the comment as the picture itself
i'm a Christmas sentiment junkie
and i was reminded of the traditional scene
(like the song)
"City street lights,
Even stop lights,
Blink a bright red and green,
As the shoppers rush home
With their treasures.
Hear the snow crunch,
See the kids bunch,
This is Santa's big scene,
And above all this bustle you'll hear..."
(except nobody's carrying any bags of gifts--but it's snowing)
like the black & white, too

it caught my eye last time I logged on. Was it the pastel shades? Was it the cute theme? Was it the girl's slightly shocked expression? "You mean you feel THAT way about me?" Probably all the above.
