Hi again....just a cam5 update....

Cam 5 is currently mixing business with pleasure and enjoying the weekend on an island in a norwegian fjord. It is strolling around the island, joined by a couple of 4x5s, 6x6s and a 35, waiting for the optimal photo opportunity and the right light. Sometime during the weekend it will happen.

In the meantime....this is a picture taken this afternoon by one of cam5's new local friends, a 4x5 homemade pinhole filled with delta 100... (cam5 did not snap in this position!)

Nice image.

Default On the road again...

When I wrote the last report we had minus 4 degrees and nice weather. As soon as I said I was waiting for the right light, the light disappeared, and we've had really dark heavy clouds since Friday - and 50mm of rain just on Sunday!

Anyway, the picture has been shot, and cam5 is on the road again...

Pagan? The camera is leaving a country named Norway, heading for a spruced(?) street in Ontario named Norway....

Well... DanG!

I predicted the camera would be returning to our North Amurican Shores by the Dawn of Spring. The Equinox is but a twinkle in the eye of our Canadian Bretheren yet they wil soon see the light of Mighty Camera 5's flash (if they so select).

John will have many an opportunity I fear of composing ice storm photos from the far reaches of cold cold Ontario.

Aaaah - nothing like slow progress. But progress nevertheless!

I was hoping to snap a shot of the mountains overlooking the orange groves along Route 126 in Southern California while I am still here, but at the rate we are going - by the time the camera gets to me - it will likely be a shot of the frozen Lake Champlain area in northern Vermont in the winter of 08-09.

I dunno, now it seems #5 is now stuck in a deep, northern European funk thing.

Getting filled with angst and existential confusion.

What is this? Some kind of Ibsen play?

Why didn't this sucker go to Italy instead of Scandinavia?

Fer cryin' out loud!

Yo...dude...just shoot the picture and pass the camera on!

I thought it was already on its way to Ontario. Does it come down south to us after Canada?

Stuck???

As I wrote in my previous message, the camera is on its way to Ontario... ETA is 4-6 days.

George missed that line.

Yes the camera goes across Canada, down to Michigan, another place or two then out to the coast.

After it hits me the first time, it will go a minor swing through the South east, hit one latecomer in Canada, then back to me. I predict...
We finish in September.


Are we almost ready for Round 6? *L*

Alas, I did!

Sorry all, espescially Bjazz.

That's what happens when you go away for a couple of days and then try to speed read 1750 unread posts.

Damn, this site is getting harder and harder to keep up with.

Anyway, glad to hear #5 is again in transit.
