Ah... Sorry... I think I may have forgotten the point. Easy to do on the Internet.

You're lucky to so close to Arles. Vincent is lurking in the galleries ..

Pissed as a rat... Have you ever DRUNK absinthe?

Not that close. It's a LONG day's travel each way. But it's worth it.

Cheers,

R.

Absinthe.....

Dear Wayne,

Sure. But the 40s and 50s (or even 30s -- I love my Thambar) are well under 100 years ago.

Cheers,

R.

Splitting hairs, Roger?

O'Sullivan, Watkins, Jackson, Curtis and countless others managed quite well with the gear available to them in the last half of the 19th Century and early 20th Century.

Dear Wayne,

No, I don't think that's hair-splitting. Or if it is, they're very thick hairs: more like tree-trunks. Photography changes, and among the reasons it changes are equipment and materials. I doubt Martin Parr would have done well with plate cameras and tripods, and I'm damn' sure Willly Ronis, Doisneau, HCB and others were much liberated by small cameras with fast lenses and fast sensitive materials.

Chers,

R..

One taste was enough for me.. no thanks

Vin Rouge ! (saint emilion)

They vary enormously. The first absinthe I ever had was Czech, and very good. My current bottle is Spanish, and... well, put it this way, I've had it at least a couple of years and it's still half full.

Cheers (says he, finishing a glass of manzanilla),

R.

When your shooting on 8x10 and larger film size lenses don't have to be terribly good to get a fantastic print.
