I was shooting the gorillas when all of a sudden someone squeezes between me and another person. I looked over and sure enough it was a little old lady with a lens as big as my arm (im guessing canon 100-400? It had a push pull mechanism I believe)! Than I turn around and there were two more

I for once felt like part of the club with my beastly 300mm F/4. I knew I had to get a picture so when they were shooting birds I pulled out my droid x

btw, I swear the middle one looked EXACTLY like betty white

Now, *there's* a photographer! Is that a Polaroid he's toting?

Heh, that looks like an actual Polaroid film pack there, too. I wonder where he gets em.

Been looking at older stuff, and found this one from one of my early nights out with an A/28. (The size of which I miss, but I traded in on a big fast Sigma cause it can be hard for me to manually-focus slower lenses at night.

) I think I had fresher eyes on this town back then.

This Canonian was a nice fellow, he came over and took interest in my Pentax after this shot.

I can't decide how I like to crop it, though, so I went back into it, (Wherever I put the copy I corrected for level, I dunno, but that needs doing again.

)

Whoa, a fellow Athenian. I've taken many a picture at that intersection

The picture above your post was taken inside Cutters, lol.

Ha. Reinforcements. It's about time.

Not actually from Athens, but it's not a big Pentax town, that I've seen.

Until I saw that picture, I thought I was the only one, haha. Technically since you're not from Athens I suppose I still am
