Hey, Thanks Nat. Good shot of the shirts. I'm glad your shot of the coffee klatche came out so well.

Hmm, there were two guys there named Steve, right? Nice work, btw!

[natatbeach]

if you were whining silently---I obviously didn't here it. Both of you were fun to be around---just in very different ways.
;)

I refer to Asylum steve's (violin) newspaper....

[adina]

Have we heard from Steve since he got back to Flordia?

[opus]

He's around, but he hasn't posted to this thread.



I wish more people would post more of their shots here....

Invisible in plain sight???

I added this after I got home:

Sorry I haven't commented on everyone's pics. I think they're great...

He's around, but he hasn't posted to this thread.

Invisible is right, that link doesn't lead anywhere when I click it!

I must have missed it since I'm sick. Everything is kind of a haze right now. Somedays I'm afraid to get in my car and drive for fear of running off the road.

It's just been overcast and foggy around here Adina.

Get better, OK?

[natatbeach]

I got home to three sick kids...then Larry...and I got sick and lost my voice three days ago...still no voice...Imagine me not talking...shocking...Feel better!
;)

I guess what I meant was that Steve never posted any of his pictures to this thread.


What is it with everyone getting sick after Chicago?? Steve, Adina.... anyone else?

Personally, I had severe indigestion after dinner and could barely walk or talk by the time I was dropped off at my car, and never made it out of Chicago that night. But I was fine by the next day, except for a sore stomach.

What's up with the rest of you's?

[Sebastian]

Rhianna and I got really sick after dinner.

[walterick]

This first shot of the man with the mirror is a classic!

[opus]

Thanks Walterick! That reminds me, I was going to post it in a thread of its own over on Critique. I think I muddied it up making it a duotone, but I'm not sure I like it in color, either. The light was so flat on the train station platform that I'm having a real hard time working with the shot, but I love the subject so much that I don't want to give up on it.

Look for it over on Critique.

[Asylum Steve]

I was fine in Chicago. When I called my mom in Florida, she let me know that the entire family had come down with a stomach virus over the weeknd. After briefly considering staying in Chicago for the rest of the week , I flew home.

I held out for a couple of days before it hit me...

[adina]

My stomach was fine after dinner. Could be because I avoided the fish!

Mmm... I'm guessing "fresh locally caught"? Like the three-headed carp that are the only species that can survive in the river?
