While on my way, I encountered a man on the street and asked myself the 'GW-question' - "How will it look photographed?" More specific: "How will a stooped person on the street look photographed while the cam focuses on a poster (printed with a very coarse raster) some meters before him?"
This is the last pic exploring and showcasing the possibilities of the GX9 and some particular lenses. It's time for some hard boiled archi shots again - next stop: Utrecht Centraal.
This is a favorite place of mine to go to when visiting my daughter /friends...it's the Bluewater Bridge in Sarnia........On the other side is Port Huron MI....
From Spring right up until the first snowfall it's populated by many tourists and locals.....the biggest attraction is the Chip Wagons, or the Fry Trucks....they do a booming business.......it's a beautiful spot year round! The locals walk their dogs along the boardwalk and there are lots of these signs posted..... :) There is also a Casino within walking distance!!

The St Clair river flows into Lake Huron!
I hope that you have an AWEsome day/night!!!
THANKS so much in advance for your visits!! :)
The kites at the hill were fantastic today - can't quite believe how brazen they were! At one point I even had to shoot at 100mm on a 300mm lens (this shot was taken at 150mm with a bit of cropping)
Mostly I see buzzards circling up high or waiting for a meal on a lamp post opportunistically . It is a surprise then, when they enter into a fast stoop after spotting something below.

Stoop sitting. An important pastime during the summers in Newark. This was my grandmother's home. Oak trees out front. Sidewalk pavers jumbled from growing roots of trees. Typical Italians, with loads of fruit trees in the back yard. And grape vines, and home made wine.
I'm guessing this may be from around 1958, as my sister is wearing diapers. Far right is our mom, who would have been in her early 30s then. Far left is my dad's cousin, who would have been about age 14 judging by her looks here. I would be an usher at her wedding in about 8 years.
The post war years, with the soldiers and sailors home, trying to make something of the world they saved, for the families they were growing.
Sitting under the mistletoe
(Pale-green, fairy mistletoe),
One last candle burning low,
All the sleepy dancers gone,
Just one candle burning on,
Shadows lurking everywhere:
Some one came, and kissed me there.
Tired I was; my head would go
Nodding under the mistletoe
(Pale-green, fairy mistletoe),
No footsteps came, no voice, but only,
Just as I sat there, sleepy, lonely,
Stooped in the still and shadowy air
Lips unseen—and kissed me there.
Final tricolor print. Gum bichromate over cyanotype on Fabriano 300lb paper. Image size about 7in. x 10.5in.
walking home from the BK loves MichaelJ & Prince event at Fort Green Park, I notice some art next to this stoop. I asked this gent if he created the art, which he didn't--we engaged in a conversation, then I asked to take his photo.
MY Stranger 61/100
Took a break from the long straight stretch of highway as we were heading east into the sun ... this was the rear-view mirror view that I got out to take. Was planning to clone out the shadow, which I may do later, but for now kept my crouching pose there ;))
