So nice to see people wearing lots of clothing. Great texture and patterns. Here it is not conducive since it is much warmer.

If it any consolation, it is a frigid 44 F at 11:30 pm.
Edit: I just got back from the North Florida Fair and had to wear a sweater!
Well, here weather demands a bit more than sweater. At least it has the advantage that I'm back in my
winter coat with the big pockets: currently a Program-A with the M40/2.8 pancake in the left pocket and the M135/3.5 in the right...or I'm just about able to squeeze down the K-7 with an ltd on even though it is still a bit thick.
I find the DA35ltd excellent for that sort of landscape shots.
I've been keeping an eye open for a good conference over on the American west coast as an excuse to go there, something on atmosphere, aerosols or climate. AMS (American Meteorological Society) use to have some every year, but the location changes. If I get anywhere near I will let you know. It would be nice to do some street shooting together and perhaps have a bear or two, or whatever you drink.
