Grant, Thinking of you and yours. Hoping all goes well with your father.

Just goofin' off a bit.

Thanks for starting the daily, Michael. Wow, quite a collection there and a great way to store/show case your cameras. Mine are pretty much scattered here and yonder but I have been thinking I need a better way. My digital cameras stay in a rolling case but my film cameras, of which I have several, are scattered around in cases or on shelves.

Today I am doing final packing, running errands, etc in preparation for my trip to Texas. Leaving tomorrow morning and won't be back until June 7 so I will probably be out of pocket for a while. I might be able to check in a couple of times if I remember to write down my password to get into the forum.

Good day, everyone.

Thanks for starting the Daily, Michael. Are all of those yours? (BTW, I think today is Tuesday the 24th.)

Don, have a good trip. I hope the Texas temps drop to a comfortable level for you.

Grant, I'm wishing strength to you and the best possible recovery for your father during this difficult time.

Here's a colorful group of flowers I noticed on a rather slow, stumbling walk a few days ago...

24th it is! :-D

Don, my wife got sick of cameras all over the house, so she bought a ton of these cubes.  Enjoy Texas, I hear it is still part of the US. Heheheh

Yeah, all mine. I should probably reduce, but I know as soon as I see something good at a thrift, I'm buying it anyway. What a great purple against the dark green. The white also brings an incredible depth to the shot.

Michael, Which Bronica do you have?

[Man From Ironbark]

I'd love to have a couple of those cameras.

ETRsi

I just love the purple and white combination. Great shot!!

I think I will try to find thos two colors together tomorrow.

ETRsi
Yep. 645 format.
I'd love one.

[Michael]

Yep. 645 format.

Right now I have a 120 back on it.

Michael,  I thought I recognized it.I had a number of of different 645 Bronicas during my career.
And many lenses. Thought of as "The Poor Man's Hassleflex", their glass is top notch.
Tamaron bought the company to acquire the Zenzanon lens coating technology. Their 3rd generation PEt-11 lenses are outstanding and colour matched through out their entire lineup.
Coupled with my Super 6K HS Betterlight, and pano adapter, the Zenzanon lens out performs the competitor.
I have the 30 fisheye /40/50/75/100macro/180
Glad to see you recognize the etrsi for what it is....
