M9 Alive and ....well- Post Your Pics Here!

Some great stuff here, always inspires me to pick up Heidi (my M9) and get out. Richard, near our new warehouse there is a great Jacaranda set against a factory wall; I'm desperate to shoot it soon!

Arnold.

Arnold.

So,

Through chance I wound up assisting a gentlemen who's father was a body builder in the 70's, during this time he befriended none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger!

This chap was also a keen photographer and was able to take thousands of pictures of Arnold during his time in Australia on his RB67. Turns out he's a keen printer too...

I asked more and was told of a sad story. The customer's father had become ill and his former physical glory had been stripped from him quite suddenly. He was no longer able to dedicate his life to the pursuit of physical perfection.

His father's new pass-time would be printing the collection of Arnie photos in the darkroom and selling finely crafted prints.

So, as a reward for going above and beyond this gentlemen offered me an 8x10 darkroom print!
