Yes and yes. The mailbox has seen better days and nothing is flat where we live. I tried to straighten it, but it looked worse so I left it alone.

Great idea, or should I say "great minds think alike"

sunset last night:




a new lens is on the way to me, should be here this week: K24/2.8.... looking forward to it and how it will compare/contrast to the Vivitar 24mm that went away in the trade....

it also kicked over a little LBA in me - currently hunting for a Helios 44....
