I knew and worked with rodeo guys in the 70s, and they're a tough bunch.

That guy would be very embarrassed to see that photo of himself.

No I still see 128, it's the same in my Explorer too, maybe its possible somewhere in here to change the number of threads per page.

I just looked back at my page 127 and I have 40 odd threads on that one page.

PS I just found it Ira, in the edit option you can alter by way of drop down list the number of threads per page, mine was set to 40, its now set to the max which is 75, so I only see 68 pages now.

Man, I need to grab an 85 or 105 to fill in the gap from 55-135

everyone is snagging the 1.8s as they are a good deal as the 1.9s are quite expensive!

time to look for a jupiter 9

Process :
Canon 5D, S-M-C Tak 28/3.5 @f/3.5, 800 isos, lenses standing on my bed, then I used Photoshop to standardize the light and the background

Lenses :
47 Takumars
- 15 to 1000mm
- 45 different optical formulae
- approximatively 20-25 lenses in near mint condition, only 3 lenses more used than the average
- Estimation of 350h spent in researches, spread on 2 years and a half

OK, it's official! You are the sole reason that the price of Takumar lenses have practically doubled over the past 2 years!

Nice collection...I've got a few of those...not sure what I would do with that many though.

Maybe you would take pictures ?

I have to admit I do not use all of them, but some of them are not that good (who would really use the pihnole lens, aka Takumar 18/11 ?) compared to other lenses.

Wow great shot

By (somewhat) popular request. The rest of the story...
Here are the two images before and after the prone rodeo rider above. Sorry I didn't get a shot of him actually falling off - I was busy watching to see if he would hit the opened gate. [Note to self - what kind of journalist are you to stop and gawk rather than pushing the camera button.]
With a different angle the length of the horn is more visible. Bruises but no blood.
