I used two ranger rx speeds with the maxispot.

Thx! I really enjoy seeing a variety from the shoot.

I haven't shot in about 3 years, so I live vicariously.

I would love to be doing location fashion work, but maybe just too old and decrepit to actually do that again? I have a few Bron Mobil, plus a Verso A2. Now I need a sherpa and a healthy young photog to do all the work for me!

Keep going, have fun, share!

Best,
Michael

What's too old.
I hope to keep shooting untill I drop dead.......
I can always drag oxygen tanks with me

On the other hand an assistant is very handy to have on location, even when your "just" 38

50, in my case.

I used to take a big handful of pain pills along, when the docs gave me enough. I'd get about 1/3 of the pics in the can before I took the meds, cause afterward I screw up the basics - like exposure and focus (after 30 years!)

Is that what you are? Keep going buddy! Cheers.

I used to train 6 hours a day for cycling & xc skiing. Lately I watch the Tour de France on TV 6 hours a day (I said - vicarious living.) Wish I could go back and use that energy for location work!

Just a bit of warning too folks, not to take it all for granted ... enjoy.

Cheers,
Michael

Well 38 also has it's drawbacks..... I'm not 20 any more lol.

I understand however what you mean, that's why I'm always taking care of my back, always sit down when shooting instead of bending myself in poses that hurt in a few minutes.

What are you guys talking about?
Is 38/50 to old to be assistant or a photog?
I am 47 and consider myself in the best shape of my life. Just starting the journey!
Old enough to be taken serious and still young enough to move mountains.

Had to look up Xenofx. Old I guess ....

Also, Phil, my 10 year old asked if you could elaborate on these "defining angles" you mentioned? I can give you his cell phone number if you care to explain?

Cheers folks. Have a great weekend.

Best,
Michael

hahaahaa...mmurph,

I have 2 toddlers myself, both girls. I'm gonna have enough to deal with in due time. I will leave the curves and angles for you dad., hehehe...but you might be on a good start if you relate it to either skiing slopes or the roads that you love to drive. (I'm not sure where that analogy is headed, but, it will help steer him to sports cars, and speeding?) :-)

Frank, you used Xen just right. Good work.

And when you really, really grow up Andre, you´ll realise you never had to move those damn mountains in the first place!

so ... would that be in metric or english system units?

Log units.

Going from 39 to 42 represnts a doubling of age.

At least that is how Iit felt to me. Happy at an "effective" 85 now though.

He will be 11 in September. He got "busted" by his mom looking at porn on the laptop a couple of weeks ago. He fessed up, but is not real interested in talking about it.

Definitely more explicit than what I saw in National Geographic when I was his age .... (looking at history - first time my wife encouraged me to look at porn!)

Cheers - and good luck.

Seeing porn at 10-11, maybe fine for a boy, as I think I may have been that age. Having a cell phone at 11....hmmm, I don't know how to deal with that when the question pops up with my kids. I know all the safety things and gps feature that they will know how to disable, maybe helpfull.....Maybe a 5mile range walkie-talkie? hahahha

Perhaps a gps device embedded some place, and perhaps a digital recorder on a school backpack, or something very subtle like that...HAHAHA....I often think I want to do these things, but I also think I better have instilled some trust, expectation, and overall common sense, and...well the recorder for when the teacher says she is doing such and such...Ok,...ya I know...Its tuff to be a parent!

Otherwise it's time for "that" talk in front of his mother, and a privat talk about were to hide it

Photographically a very good shot, Simon, but also the imagery that keeps me OFF trains in the first place!

Very nice portraits Michele, really captures the spirit of wine making. I just got back from a vacation in Liguria myself, miss it already.

Many thanks
Liguria is a beautiful place, but the next time came in Sardinia it's a paradise, there are places where you think you must be in Caraibi...
My best
