Hey Barb,
I love your photography.
I'll be seeing you here instead of in Politics.
It's better...
I don't see no rainbow.
You making stuff up?
That doesn't even look like real water falling.
Where's the source?

Lol, maybe I don't have your illness.
Maybe you and barbs have a lot in common.

I don't know about a lot.
But definitely photography.
Except he kept going and I stopped many years ago.

No, it's quite real, not processed in. These falls, at the right time of day, produce a rainbow.
Slow shutter speed.

And yes, I'm too old to be doing this kind of thing.

Oh, the memories...
So I'm right, they're fake!

A slow shutter speed does not make a waterfall be fake.
It slows the movement of the water - it gives it more importance.
You could see the "flow" better.
I think Barb deserves a Zorro Z of approval.

My first "serious camera:"
Built like a tank, and versatile as a jeep. I don't think I've ever seen a broken one. Cheap, but infallibly functional. On a wrist strap, it could be a formidable weapon when doing street photography in questionable neighborhoods; the square edges and a massive metal/bakelite body could do serious harm without damage to the camera.
Funny thing, although I'm in awe of my digital cameras and their capabilities, I don't really love them the way I love this one. I learned the basics on a meterless brick, and it will always have a fond place in my heart.

This was something like my first camera.
A poloroid from the 60's.
I wish I still had it.

I agree regarding the digital. It's not the same.My first "serious camera:"

My first camera was a Minolta. Got two more after that but I loved that one the most. Let me see if I can find one...
Gosh. I just realized I don't even remember the model, but it looked kind of like this:
Had different lenses for it ranging from 50 to 400 mm. Including a fish eye.
Diffferent filters too.
I should have kept going. I forget a lot. Depth of field.
Oh well. Life happens.

I believe it!Minolta was a good reliable camera. The only Minolta I've ever owned was the 110 SLR, an odd little thing that never really caught on.
It looks funny.
Must feel funny too.
I don't like it.
I like your old camera better.

Ah, the polaroid swinger. Popular because it was point and shoot, and instant prints. Sold a lot of those, but no film now available. One collector's resource has them valued at "5$ a truckload, delivered."
The acme of Polaroid cameras was the SX-70, with or without the sonar autofocus.
I have a couple of these. Although you can't get Polaroid film for them, the Impossible Project is selling (expensive and not too reliable) film that will work with them. I buy a pack every now and then, just to encourage the work. I really liked this one.
